Features and Benefits
Comprehensive QoS Features:
•Port-basedor802.1p-basedprioritization
•Layer3-based(DSCP)prioritization
•Port-basedingressandegressratelimiting
•Advanced controls for optimized network performance and better delivery of mission-critical
trac such as voice and video
DHCP Snooping •Ensure IP address allocation integrity by allowing only clients with specific IP/MAC addresses
to have access to the network
Dual Firmware Images and Configuration Files •Dual firmware image and dual configuration file for transparent firmware updates/configuration
changes with minimum service interruption
Protected Ports •Ensure no exchange of unicast, broadcast, or multicast trac between the protected ports on
the switch, therefore, improve the security of your converged network where your sensitive
phone conversation can stay private and your surveillance video clips can be forwarded to
their designated storage device without leakage or alteration.
Dynamic ARP Inspection •Prevents a class of man-in-the-middle attacks, where an unfriendly station intercepts trac
for other stations by poisoning the ARP caches of its unsuspecting neighbors.
Multicast VLAN Registration •Eliminates the replication of the same multicast trac for every VLAN by sending multicast
trac only on to the dedicated multicast/source VLAN, resulting in more ecient utilization of
network bandwidth.
EAV (Ethernet Audio/Video Bridging) Support
1
•Extends Ethernet usage to support multimedia streaming. The Ethernet AVB standard adds
QoS (Quality of Service) features like time-synchronized low latency streaming services and
bandwidth reservation to make it possible to carry professional quanity audio and video signals
on a standard Ethernet line.
