The internally managed QM9700/QM9701 switches feature an on-board subnet manager that enables simple, out-of-the-box bringup for up to 2,000 nodes. Running the NVIDIA MLNX-OS® software package, the subnet manager delivers full chassis management through command-line interface (CLI), web-based user (WebUI), Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), or JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) interfaces. The externally managed QM9790 switch can utilize the advanced NVIDIA Unified Fabric Manager (UFM®) feature sets to empower data center operators to efficiently provision, monitor, manage, preventatively troubleshoot, and maintain the modern data center fabric, to realize higher utilization and reduce overall opex.
