Smart-1 7000-L
2U appliance for managing up to 150 gateways, with HDD expansion and support for Multi-Domain administration.

Overview
The Smart-1 7000-L combines centralised management and HDD retention capacity for organisations with multiple networks and teams. The model supports 75 gateways in Base and 150 in Plus. Storage can expand from four to eight 8 TB drives, with usable capacity depending on the selected RAID level. The hardware includes redundant power supplies, expandable interfaces and LOM remote access. To separate administrative responsibilities, the project can adopt Multi-Domain with the corresponding licensing while keeping policies, logs and events under a common operation. Selection criteria: Suitable when management needs to grow to 150 gateways and HDD retention fits the query profile. Calculate usable capacity according to the RAID level: four drives in RAID 6 provide 14.5 TB; eight in RAID 6 provide 43.6 TB. Plan domains, licensing and the drive expansion window; changing the RAID configuration requires backup and restore.
