• Flow control
provides back pressure using standard IEEE 802.3x, reducing congestion in heavy traffic situations
• High-density connectivity
provides up to 48 fixed 10/100/1000BASE-T ports in a Layer 2/Lite Layer 3 switch
• IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) support
simplifies deployment and dramatically reduces installation costs by helping to eliminate the time and cost involved in
supplying local power at each access point location
• Ethernet operations, administration and maintenance (OAM)
detects data link layer problems that occurred in the "last mile" using the IEEE 802.3ah OAM standard; monitors the status
of the link between two devices
Performance
• Nonblocking architecture
up to 216 Gb/s nonblocking switching fabric provides wirespeed switching with up to 190.5 million pps throughput
• Hardware-based wirespeed access control lists (ACLs)
help provide high levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network performance with a feature-rich
TCAM-based ACL implementation
R
esiliency and high availability
• Separate data and control paths
separates control from services and keeps service processing isolated; increases security and performance
• Smart Link
allows under 100ms failover between links
• Spanning Tree/PVST+, MSTP, RSTP
provides redundant links while preventing network loops
• Intelligent Resilient Fabric (IRF)
creates virtual resilient switching fabrics, where two to nine switches perform as a single L2 switch and L3 router; switches
do not have to be co-located and can be part of a disaster-recovery system; servers or switches can be attached using
standard LACP for automatic load balancing and high availability; can eliminate need for complex protocols like Spanning
Tree Protocol, Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP), or VRRP, thereby simplifying network operation
• Internal Dual Redundant Power Supply
provides high reliability by keeping network up while delivering up to 1440 Watts of PoE+
Manageability
• Dual flash images
provides independent primary and secondary operating system files for backup while upgrading
• Multiple configuration files
allow multiple configuration files to be stored to a flash image
• IPv6 management
future-proofs networking, as the switch is capable of being managed whether the attached network is running IPv4 or
IPv6; supports pingv6, tracertv6, Telnetv6, TFTPv6, DNSv6, and ARPv6
• Troubleshooting
allows ingress and egress port monitoring, enabling network problem solving; virtual cable tests provide visibility into cable
problems
Layer 2 switching
• 32K MAC address table
provides access to many Layer 2 devices
• VLAN support and tagging
supports IEEE 802.1Q with 4,094 simultaneous VLAN IDs
