This core switch is a Ubiquiti EdgeSwitch 16-XG with 12 SFP+ 10Gbps slots and four RJ45 10GBASE-T ports. It is now the "centre" of the machine room network, connecting to:

• Kerosene via a 10G link

• Curviceps via 2 1Gbps links aggregated with LACP

• most servers via 10G-SR fibre or DAC: Murasoi, Molmol, Maltair, Medico, Loveday, Motsugo, Magikarp, Mudkip, Machop

Purchased in early 2017 as part of the revamp of our VM cluster.

It has a nice web interface at walnut.mgmt. Alternatively, a terminal interface can be opened by ssh or through the console port on the switch. Its configuration is also accessible at http://cvs.ucc.asn.au/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/rancid/ucc/configs.
