S12700 & S9700 & S7700 VRP version

Hello,

You can refer to V200R010C000 as the version of the switches. To find it you can issue 'display version' and later you can use the reference from the support website.

Hi Pedro,

This is just an OS (operating system) version that is running in Huawei devices. The V200R010 or sometimes referred as V2R10 is the firmware version for the device. It is two different things. Like Windows 10 and Windows XP. Instead we have VRP for this. Hope this clarifies.

for the latest version supported by the device, you can find them on the product web page,

Hi Kecekk,
What I need to know for any Huawei device that I choose (ARG3 router, Sx700 switch, CE Switch, etc.) is what version of the operative system VRP is coming with the equipment. How can I verify it before buying the product?
Besides that, what are the differences between VRP v7 and VRP v8 or other previous versions?, is there a comparative table or similar?

hi,
VRP is a platform, and there is no VRP V7, there is VRP V5 and V8 by now, they are both used and the difference between V5 and V8 is the architecture.
all the switches except the CE series are based on V5 platform, the CE series switch is based on V8
hope this can help you.

You are right, there is no VRP v6 or v7, but from this article:
https://e.huawei.com/us/tech-topic/en/hw_198987
VRP is an Network Operative System (NOS) not a platform (hardware).
Your extra information about what NOS is for Sx700 and what NOS is for CE is the answer I was looking for.
Now that I have that information, is there a similar link that talks about VRF v5?
I want to know if VRF v5 has also a completely modular design, like VRF v8 to improve system reliabiity.
Thanks for your support my friend
