aggregation, and data transport functions. They are developed by Huawei to meet the
requirements for reliable access and high-quality transmission of multiple services on the
enterprise network.
Positioned for the access layer or aggregation layer of the enterprise network, the S3700 provides
large capacity, high port density, and cost-effective packet forwarding capabilities. In addition,
the S3700 provides multi-service access capabilities, excellent extensibility, quality of service
(QoS) guarantee, powerful multicast replication, and carrier-class security, and can be used to
build ring topologies of high reliability.

The S3700 provides swappable Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) optical modules for optical
fiber connections.The length of optical fibers can be selected according to the transmission
distance.
fiber connections.The length of optical fibers can be selected according to the transmission
distance.
The S3700 can be used to construct a tree, star, or ring Ethernet network. For the ring Ethernet,
the S3700 supports the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), SEP and RRPP to prevent loops and
provide rapid switchover.

1.2.2 Network-Level QoS Guarantee
The S3700 provides comprehensive QoS mechanisms. It can intelligently identify services and
classify traffic according to Layer 2 to Layer 4 information in the Open System Interconnection
(OSI) model. Then, it provides various policies such as access traffic filter, traffic policing, and
queue scheduling to provide differentiated services.
