Product Specifications
Features
Simplified • Dual image and dual configuration file storage provides backup
Manageability • Intuitive Alcatel CLI with familiar interface reducing training costs
• Easy to use point and click web based element manager with built-in help for easy configuration
of new technology features
• Remote telnet management or secure shell
• Port based, port mirroring for troubleshooting, supports four sessions with multiple sources-to-one
destination configuration
• Port monitoring feature that allows capture of Ethernet packets to a file, or for on-screen display
to assist in troubleshooting
• Human readable ASCII based config files for offline editing and bulk configuration
• IGMPv1/v2/v3 snooping to optimize multicast traffic
• BootP/DHCP client allows auto-config of switch IP information to simplify deployment
• Auto-negotiating 10/100/1000 ports automatically configure port speed and duplex setting
• Auto MDI/MDIX automatically configures transmit and receive signals to support straight thru
and crossover cabling
• DHCP relay to forward client requests to a DHCP server
• SNMPv1/v2/v3
• Integration with SNMP manager OmniVista for network wide management
• Supports RFC 2819 RMON group (1-Statistics, 2-History, 3-Alarm & 9-Events)
• Network Time Protocol (NTP) for network wide time synchronization
• Alcatel Mapping Adjacency Protocol (AMAP) for building topology maps within OmniVista
VLAN Support • 1,024 VLANs
• 4,094 VLAN tag value support
• Per port, 802.1Q and policy-based VLAN including authenticated VLAN
High • 802.1w rapid recovery spanning tree allows sub-second failover to redundant link
Availability • Alcatel per-VLAN spanning tree (1x1)
• 802.1d spanning tree for loop free topology and link redundancy
• 802.1s multiple spanning tree
• Fast forwarding mode on user ports to bypass 30-second delay for spanning tree
• Static and 802.3ad dynamic link aggregation that supports automatic configuration of link
aggregates with other switches.
• Broadcast storm control
• Redundant 1:1 power provided by the OS6800-BPS
• BPDU blocking – automatically shuts down switch ports being used as user ports if a spanning-
tree BPDU packet is seen. Prevents unauthorized spanning-tree enabled attached bridges
from operating.
Quality • 802.1p, TOS, DSCP marking
of Service • QoS mapping: 802.1p to TOS/DSCP, TOS to 802.1p/DSCP, DSCP to 802.1p/TOS
• Classification per port, 802.1p(COS) value, MAC SA/DA, Ethertype, TOS precedence, DSCP
value, ICMP code and type, IP SA/DA, IP protocol, TCP/UDP port range
• Eight egress queues per port to support strict and hybrid queuing (strict + weighted round robin
queuing algorithm). Two egress queues are reserved for system use.
• Ingress bandwidth rate limiting per port/flow in 64 Kb increments
• Egress bandwidth rate limiting per port in 1 Mb increments
