SmartFabric Services for PowerEdge MX

SFS is a capability of Dell EMC Networking OS10 Enterprise Edition running on Ethernet switches (IOMs) that are designed for the PowerEdge MX 7000 platform. In the SFS mode, the IOMs operate as a simple Layer 2 input output aggregation device, which enables complete interoperability with network equipment vendors.

SFS discovers the IOMs deployed in a chassis and provides APIs to the management modules in the chassis to monitor the state of the IOMs.

SFS for PowerEdge MX
In MX platform, SFS provides:
  • A single pane of glass to monitor and manage the lifecycle operations on the IOMs.
  • APIs to manage VLT fabric, data uplinks, storage uplinks, and server templates for the entire fabric.

In a Dell EMC PowerEdge MX7000 infrastructure, the MX9116n fabric engine and MX5108n Ethernet switch support SFS.
