It is our amazing new 10G switch. 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:
 * [[Network/SwitchConfiguration#Kerosene|Kerosene]] via a 10G link
 * [[Network/SwitchConfiguration#Curviceps|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.
In the past, it was configured with 4 10G SFP+ modules, which connected it to
[[Murasoi]], [[Maltair]], [[Medico]], and [[Molmol]]. It also had a 1Gbit link to
`curviceps` to connect it to the rest of the network.

Line 8: Line 9:
After much progress buying more 10G-SR fibre gear, Walnut currently handles SFP+ links to [[Murasoi]], [[Molmol]], [[Maltair]], [[Medico]], [[Loveday]], [[Motsugo]] and [[Magikarp]]. It is now the "centre" of the machine room network, connecting to [[Kerosene]] via a 10G link and [[Curviceps]] via 2 1Gbit links aggregated with LACP.

There are currently plans to upgrade the last few server connections ([[Mudkip]] and the new Cisco UCS, in particular) to 10G fibre.

See [[Network]] for more information.
