Non-universal switches include the following license levels:
| Switch Category | Switches | Applicable License Levels |
|---|---|---|
| Non-universal switches | X435 *, X440-G2, X450-G2, X460-G2, X465, X590, X620, X690, X695 | Value Edge *, Edge, Advanced Edge, Core |
|
Note: * The X435 is
the only switch that supports the Value Edge license
level.

The following figure illustrates that each license level builds on the features of the license level below it. For example, the Advanced Edge license includes all of the features in the Edge license, plus the features in the Advance Edge license level.
For more information about licenses, see .
The following tables summarize tested metrics for a variety of features, as measured in a per-system basis unless otherwise noted. These limits may change, but represent the current status. The contents of this table supersede any values mentioned in the ExtremeXOS books.
The scaling and performance information shown in the following tables is provided for the purpose of assisting with network design. It is recommended that network architects and administrators design and manage networks with an appropriate level of network scaling “head room.” The scaling and performance figures provided have been verified using specific network topologies using limited switch configurations. There is no guarantee that the scaling and performance figures shown are applicable to all network topologies and switch configurations and are provided as a realistic estimation only. If you experience scaling and performance characteristics that you feel are sufficiently below what has been documented, contact Extreme Networks technical support for additional assistance.
The route limits shown in the following tables for IPv4 and IPv6 routing protocols are software limits only. The actual hardware limits may be higher or lower than the software limits, based on platform. The hardware limits for specific platforms are specified as "IPv4/IPv6 routes (LPM entries in hardware)" in the following tables.
In the Extended Edge Switching architecture, Layer-2, Layer-3, and multicast packet forwarding and filtering operations take place on the controlling bridge. The controlling bridge switch and attached BPEs (V400 Virtual Port Extenders) constitute a single, extended switch system. Therefore, the Extended Edge Switching system assumes the scale and limits from the specific controlling bridge model in use. For applicable limits, see the following tables for the controlling bridge you are using.
