H3C Launches Eagle Eye 2.0 System, Piloting Network Innovation

On June 5, 2018, H3C Group (H3C) under Tsinghua Unigroup officially launched the brand-new Eagle Eye 2.0 System in Hangzhou at the event of 100 Cities Ltinerant Exhibition of H3C Digital Navigation. The system is the first access management system in China initiated by H3C in the IoT era, which can keenly sense the network connection, proactively identify access devices and manage the device baselines. Endowed by these innovative technologies, the network is thus globally insightful, credible, visual and controllable, and can bring convenient, efficient and eligible guarantee to the IoE network. The Eagle Eye 2.0, compared with Eagle Eye 1.0, which focuses on video monitoring networks, will cover the entire industry. With its unique "flexible implantation" capability, it can implement the entire network deployment and adaptation in the case of zero network transformation. The "Eagle Eye Inside" allows H3C switching routing devices to have proactive perception ability and reshapes a new network structure. As the new Eagle Eye technology keeps being applied, it is promising to lead new changes in the network.

With the accelerated deployment and application of innovative technologies such as the IoT and 5G, the modern society is rapidly marching toward a new era of the IoE. It means that the number of networking devices and categories will increase significantly and dramatic change will occur to network access modes. Common unattended devices, dumb terminals and other IoT IP terminals in the network are usually hard to monitor and manage effectively, which poses a great challenge to the stable network operation. Traditional network management products and access products, however, cannot effectively identify and respond to emerging risk factors. Given this fact, clients are in urgent need of an effective solution that can accurately and automatically identify network risks and achieve unified network monitoring and management.

Based on the deep understanding of users' demands for network security, H3C has initiated the Eagle Eye system, the first access management system in China in the IoT era. In terms of access, it can keenly sense "users" and "things" to the network, and match appropriate permissions for different types of users and end security risks through active isolation and blocking of illegal devices as it identifies the network access devices accurately. In management, the Eagle Eye system can continuously monitor the status of network access devices and the link state among devices, by which users are able to manage IP assets in a graphical way and the network management efficiency is improved.

Interface of Eagle Eye 2.0 system

According to Bi Shouwen, Vice President and General Manager of Product Marketing Department of H3C Group, as an upgraded version of the Eagle Eye system developed by H3C, Eagle Eye 2.0 integrates many technological innovations compared to its predecessor. The 2.0 version, on the one hand, has a more intuitive insight into the overall situation, from end to the network, tangible assets to wireless resources, which enables it to control all access resources. On the other hand, the "Eagle Eye Inside" function provided by the 2.0 version can implant the capabilities of the Eagle Eye system into the equipment of H3C, giving the new generation of network the self-perception awareness. On account of this, the network would "awaken" and update to a truly credible, visual, and controllable one with active scanning and insight capabilities.

According to Wang Junbo, Director of Business Software Products Department of H3C, the Eagle Eye system has been successfully applied in industries including , transportation, and enterprise management. In Shenhua Group, the largest coal enterprise in China, H3C's Eagle Eye System can accurately identify the devices in the network, verify network assets, prevent unauthorized access devices, and simplify network management. During the BRICS Summit in Xiamen, the Eagle Eye System covered tens of thousands of video monitoring devices in Xiamen, and effectively ensured the successful meeting of the leaders of BRICS countries in Xiamen through real-time monitoring and early warning. In addition, the Eagle Eye system is also used in the construction of many projects.

With outstanding technical innovation and far-reaching industrial application value, the Eagle Eye system won many awards last year, including the Excellent Project Award in the "2017 China Internet + Transportation" Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, and the Excellent Innovation Solution Award in the 2017 List of China Top IT Brands.
