Description of Software Features

◆
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP, IEEE 802.1w) – This protocol reduces the
convergence time for network topology changes to about 3 to 5 seconds,
compared to 30 seconds or more for the older IEEE 802.1D STP standard. It is
intended as a complete replacement for STP, but can still interoperate with
switches running the older standard by automatically reconfiguring ports to
STP-compliant mode if they detect STP protocol messages from attached
devices.
◆
Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP, IEEE 802.1s) – This protocol is a direct
extension of RSTP. It can provide an independent spanning tree for different
VLANs. It simplifies network management, provides for even faster
convergence than RSTP by limiting the size of each region, and prevents VLAN
members from being segmented from the rest of the group (as sometimes
occurs with IEEE 802.1D STP).
Connectivity Fault
Management
The switch provides connectivity fault monitoring for end-to-end connections
within a designated service area by using continuity check messages which can
detect faults in maintenance points, fault verification through loop back messages,
and fault isolation with link trace messages.
Virtual LANs
The switch supports up to 4094 VLANs. A Virtual LAN is a collection of network
nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or
connection point in the network. The switch supports tagged VLANs based on the
IEEE 802.1Q standard. Members of VLAN groups can be dynamically learned via
GVRP, or ports can be manually assigned to a specific set of VLANs. This allows the
switch to restrict traffic to the VLAN groups to which a user has been assigned. By
segmenting your network into VLANs, you can:
◆
Eliminate broadcast storms which severely degrade performance in a flat
network.
◆
Simplify network management for node changes/moves by remotely
configuring VLAN membership for any port, rather than having to manually
change the network connection.
◆
Provide data security by restricting all traffic to the originating VLAN, except
where a connection is explicitly defined via the switch's routing service.
◆
Use private VLANs to restrict traffic to pass only between data ports and the
uplink ports, thereby isolating adjacent ports within the same VLAN, and
allowing you to limit the total number of VLANs that need to be configured.
◆
Use protocol VLANs to restrict traffic to specified interfaces based on protocol
type.
