Description of Software Features
The switch provides a wide range of advanced performance enhancing features.
Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks caused by port
saturation. Storm suppression prevents broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast
traffic storms from engulfing the network. Untagged (port-based), tagged, and
protocol-based VLANs, plus support for automatic GVRP VLAN registration provide
traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. CoS priority queueing
ensures the minimum delay for moving real-time multimedia data across the
network. While multicast filtering provides support for real-time network
applications.
Some of the management features are briefly described below.
Configuration Backup
and Restore
You can save the current configuration settings to a file on the management station
(using the web interface) or an FTP/SFTP/TFTP server (using the web or console
interface), and later download this file to restore the switch configuration settings.
Address Table Address Table 16K MAC addresses in the forwarding table (shared with
L2 unicast, L2 multicast, IPv4 multicast, IPv6 multicast);
1K static MAC addresses;
511 L2 IPv4 multicast groups (shared with MAC address table);
56 entries in host table (8 static ARP + 48 dynamic ARP);
64 entries in route table (net table);
8 IP intefaces
IP Version 4 and 6 Supports IPv4 and IPv6 addressing and management
IEEE 802.1D Bridge Supports dynamic data switching and addresses learning
Store-and-Forward
Switching
Supported to ensure wire-speed switching while eliminating bad
frames
Spanning Tree Algorithm Supports standard STP, Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and
Multiple Spanning Trees (MSTP)
Virtual LANs Up to 4094 using IEEE 802.1Q, port-based, protocol-based, voice VLANs,
and QinQ tunnel
Traffic Prioritization Default port priority, traffic class map, queue scheduling, IP Precedence,
or Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP)
Qualify of Service Supports Differentiated Services (DiffServ)
Link Layer Discovery
Protocol
Used to discover basic information about neighboring devices
Switch Clustering Supports up to 36 member switches in a cluster
ARP Static and dynamic address configuration, proxy ARP
Multicast Filtering Supports IGMP snooping and query for Layer 2
