Universal Hardware The 5320 comes with a dual-persona capability, allowing you to choose your Operating System (OS). Either the Switch Engine (EXOS) or Fabric Engine (VOSS) OS can be selected at switch start-up or changed at a later stage. When selected, the switch assumes the features and capabilities of that OS. 5320 OS selection can also be automated with Extreme Platform ONE or ExtremeCloud IQ so that the desired OS can be automatically loaded at switch start-up, facilitating remote OS enablement.

Security Extreme Universal hardware enables the extension and enforcement of Fabric and Universal ZTNA policies. Wherever users connect through the network, their access is secure and segmented. ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA, which combines zero-trust network and application access in one solution, automatically configures devices to enforce security policy consistently. When used in concert with Extreme Fabric, Universal ZTNA becomes part of the fabric services that automate segmentation and allow the network to flex for efficiency and resiliency while keeping security policy consistent end-to-end.

Network Fabric The 5320 supports Extreme's network fabric for network virtualization, automation, and network security. Extreme Fabric is the industry's most simple, resilient, and secure end-to-end, enterprise network fabric solution in the market, featuring automated discovery and onboarding of network and user devices, sub-second convergence to reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance windows, and automated micro-segmentation and stealth topology to enhance and automate network security. Fabric is included free with the purchase of the 5320, no additional licenses or controller required.

Instant Onboarding 5320 Series onboarding to the cloud is a hands-off operation using zero touch provisioning. Simply unpack the 5320 Series switch, connect it to the network, and it automatically finds its connection to the cloud, ready to be provisioned. The ExtremeCloud Companion mobile app makes onboarding even easier with on-site cloud set-up and switch troubleshooting capabilities.

Instant Port Instant Port automates adds, moves or changes across 5320 Series switch ports, eliminating the need for manual port configuration. The 5320 Series automatically detects the connected device and applies the correct port parameters. The result is significant time savings when adding or moving devices across the 5320 Series wired network. A simple cloud interface allows instant Port definitions of customer designated device types which can then be applied across a single switch, a stack or even all 5320 Series switches in the network.

Instant Secure Port Instant Secure Port leverages ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA (UZTNA) for authentication and zero-trust policy enforcement across the 5320 Series switch ports, while providing the same add, move, and change automation features of Instant Port. It simplifies 5320 Series security by using UZTNA's cloud-based security capabilities, including RADIUS authentication, unified visibility and reporting, as well as policy enforced locally on 5320 Series ports. In doing so, it delivers a consistent and frictionless security experience for any user or device connecting through the 5320 Series switch. (Note: ExtremeCloud UZTNA requires a separate license.)

Instant Stack Instant Stack simplifies cloud-based stack provisioning, enabling the entire switch stack to be set up through a single push-button operation. Real- world stack information, including each switch model and their stack order is captured and replicated in the cloud. Once set up, the entire stack is then ready to be cloud-provisioned.

The 5320 Series is a range of feature-rich edge switches intended for the next-generation digital enterprise. The 5320 Series is a global hardware platform that provides end-to-end secure network segmentation, extensive policy features, and a user-selectable choice of Extreme's flagship switch operating systems. This makes the 5320 a very adaptable platform that may be used in a variety of edge and wiring-closet situations.

The 5320 Series is a global hardware platform that provides end-to-end secure network segmentation, extensive policy features, and a user-selectable choice of Extreme's flagship switch operating systems. This makes the 5320 a very adaptable platform that may be used in a variety of edge and wiring-closet situations.

The 5320 Series includes fixed 16, 24, and 48-port 1 Gigabit models that are available in 30W PoE and non-PoE versions. The family also includes 16 port PoE models available with either AC or DC power options.

Universal Hardware Platform
The 5320 Series comes with a dual-persona capability allowing user choice of the switch operating system (OS). Either the Switch Engine1 or Fabric Engine2 persona can be enabled on 5320 hardware models. The desired persona can be selected at start-up or changed at a later stage. Once selected, the 5320 assumes the features/capabilities of the selected OS.

5320 persona activation can be done manually at boot-up, including via the system CLI. Or, it can be automated by pre-provisioning the 5320 persona in ExtremeCloud IQ. When first booted, the 5320 automatically connects to ExtremeCloud IQ to find its persona. The pre-provisioned OS persona is then remotely enabled on the 5320 system – eliminating the need for manual selection.

Ethernet Fabric Services
The 5320 supports a variety of Ethernet Fabric services, including Extreme’s Fabric Connect when running Fabric Engine and Extreme’s IP Fabric when running Switch Engine. It also supports Fabric Attach for automated connection to either Layer 2 or Layer 3 fabric services. Extreme’s Fabric Connect and IP Fabric on the 5320 enable the creation of virtualized networks that automate network operations, simplify network provisioning and enhance security, all while reducing the strain on network and IT personnel.

Intelligent Layer 2/3 Services
The 5320 Series provides sophisticated Layer 2 switching as well as advanced Layer 3 routing services. This includes role-based policy, bidirectional Access Control Lists, as well as granular ingress/egress bandwidth control. Layer 3 services include IPv4 and IPv6 dynamic routing, as well as
IP multicast services.

Management
The 5320 can be managed by ExtremeCloud IQ and ExtremeCloud IQ—Site Engine for comprehensive unified management with a consolidated view of users, devices and applications across wired and wireless networks. (NOTE: Each 5320 unit also includes a 1-year free ExtremeCloudIQ Pilot subscription.) Zero-touch provisioning from ExtremeCloud IQ lets one quickly bring new 5320 switches online as well as enable the selection of the operating system (OS) persona. Alternatively, 5320 on-box management can be done manually via a web-based GUI or generic CLI.

Power Over Ethernet
The 5320 Series includes Power over Ethernet (PoE) models supporting standards-based 30W IEEE 802.3at PoE capabilities. This enables the 5320 to address the needs of powered edge devices, while eliminating the need for additional electrical cabling and circuits. In addition, 5320 PoE models also support perpetual and fast PoE for even more efficient and reliable powered edge device operation.

High-Performance Stacking
Two of the 5320’s built-in SFP+ uplink ports can be used for high-speed stacking when running Switch Engine. Up to eight systems can be stacked using qualified 10Gb direct attach cables and optical transceivers. (Note: Stacking is not supported when running Fabric Engine).

1Gb Uplinks Upgradeable to 10Gb
All 5320 Series units include integrated SFP+ capable uplinks that support 1Gb SFP by default, but which can be upgraded to 10Gb via software. 24 and 48-port 5320 models come with 8 x 1Gb SFP uplinks; 16-port models offer 4 x 1Gb SFP uplinks. 1Gb SFP uplinks are upgradeable to 10Gb SFP+ through an optional software license. (Note: Two of the 5320 uplink ports are available for Switch Engine stacking and when used in this manner support 10Gb by default.)

Silent Operation
Silent mode operation at temperatures up to 35?C is supported on 5320 16-port AC and DC-powered models. This makes these models ideal for classrooms, hospitality suites, retail sites or other noise sensitive environments, especially outside of the wiring closet environment.

Silent Operation Silent mode operation at temperatures up to 35?C is supported on 5320 16-port AC and DC-powered models. This makes these models ideal for classrooms, hospitality suites, retail sites, or other noise sensitive environments, especially outside of the wiring closet environment.

Universal Hardware The 5320 comes with a dual-persona capability, allowing you to choose your Operating System (OS). Either the Switch Engine (EXOS) or Fabric Engine (VOSS) OS can be selected at switch start-up or changed at a later stage. When selected, the switch assumes the features and capabilities of that OS. 5320 OS selection can also be automated with Extreme Platform ONE or ExtremeCloud IQ so that the desired OS can be automatically loaded at switch start-up, facilitating remote OS enablement.

Security Extreme Universal hardware enables the extension and enforcement of Fabric and Universal ZTNA policies. Wherever users connect through the network, their access is secure and segmented. ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA, which combines zero-trust network and application access in one solution, automatically configures devices to enforce security policy consistently. When used in concert with Extreme Fabric, Universal ZTNA becomes part of the fabric services that automate segmentation and allow the network to flex for efficiency and resiliency while keeping security policy consistent end-to-end.

Network Fabric The 5320 supports Extreme's network fabric for network virtualization, automation, and network security. Extreme Fabric is the industry's most simple, resilient, and secure end-to-end, enterprise network fabric solution in the market, featuring automated discovery and onboarding of network and user devices, sub-second convergence to reduce unplanned downtime and maintenance windows, and automated micro-segmentation and stealth topology to enhance and automate network security. Fabric is included free with the purchase of the 5320, no additional licenses or controller required.

Instant Onboarding 5320 Series onboarding to the cloud is a hands-off operation using zero touch provisioning. Simply unpack the 5320 Series switch, connect it to the network, and it automatically finds its connection to the cloud, ready to be provisioned. The ExtremeCloud Companion mobile app makes onboarding even easier with on-site cloud set-up and switch troubleshooting capabilities.

Instant Port Instant Port automates adds, moves or changes across 5320 Series switch ports, eliminating the need for manual port configuration. The 5320 Series automatically detects the connected device and applies the correct port parameters. The result is significant time savings when adding or moving devices across the 5320 Series wired network. A simple cloud interface allows instant Port definitions of customer designated device types which can then be applied across a single switch, a stack or even all 5320 Series switches in the network.

Instant Secure Port Instant Secure Port leverages ExtremeCloud Universal ZTNA (UZTNA) for authentication and zero-trust policy enforcement across the 5320 Series switch ports, while providing the same add, move, and change automation features of Instant Port. It simplifies 5320 Series security by using UZTNA's cloud-based security capabilities, including RADIUS authentication, unified visibility and reporting, as well as policy enforced locally on 5320 Series ports. In doing so, it delivers a consistent and frictionless security experience for any user or device connecting through the 5320 Series switch. (Note: ExtremeCloud UZTNA requires a separate license.)

Instant Stack Instant Stack simplifies cloud-based stack provisioning, enabling the entire switch stack to be set up through a single push-button operation. Real- world stack information, including each switch model and their stack order is captured and replicated in the cloud. Once set up, the entire stack is then ready to be cloud-provisioned.
