Robust Layer 2 Features
The GS-4210-24P2S can be programmed for advanced switch management functions
such as dynamic port link aggregation, 802.1Q VLAN, Spanning Tree protocol (STP),
Rapid Spanning Tree protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree protocol (MSTP),
IGMP Querier and IGMP Snooping. Via aggregation of supporting ports, the GS-
4210-24P2S allows the operation of a high-speed trunk to combine with multiple ports
such as a 32Gbps fat pipe and supports fail-over as well. The Link Layer Discovery
Protocol (LLDP) feature is also included and used to discover basic information about
neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain.
Efficient Traffic Control
The GS-4210-24P2S is loaded with robust QoS features and powerful traffic
management to enhance services to business-class data, voice, and video solutions.
The functionality includes broadcast / multicast / unicast storm control, per port
bandwidth control, 802.1p / CoS / IP DSCP QoS priority and remarking. It guarantees
the best performance at VoIP and video stream transmission, and empowers the
enterprises to take full advantages of the limited network resources.
Enhanced and Secure Management
For efficient management, the GS-4210-24P2S is equipped with console, Web, Telnet
and SNMP management interfaces. With the built-in Web-based management interface,
the GS-4210-24P2S offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and
configuration facility. By supporting standard Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP), the switch can be managed via any standard management software. For
text-based management, the switch can be accessed via Telnet and the console port.
Moreover, the GS-4210-24P2S offers secure remote management by supporting HTTPS
and SNMPv3 connections which encrypt the packet content at each session.
Powerful Security
PLANET GS-4210-24P2S offers comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List
(ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It can be used to restrict network access by
denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP ports or dened
typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1X port-based
authentication, which can be deployed with RADIUS to ensure the port level security
and block illegal users. The Port Security allows limiting the number of users on a given
port. The network administrators can now construct highly-secured corporate networks
with considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexible Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the GS-4210-24P2S are compatible with the 100Base-
FX / 1000Base-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber transceiver to uplink to
backbone switch and monitor center in long distance. The distance can be extended
from 550 meters to 2km (multi-mode fiber) up to above 10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120
kilometers (single-mode ber or WDM ber). They are well suited for applications within
the enterprise data centers and distributions.
