Vanguard Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a communications protocol that
allows administrators to automate the assignment of Internet Protocol (IP) addresses
in a network. Every unit connected to the Internet needs a unique IP address. This
feature enables the Vanguard to act as a DHCP client and request configuration
information for a DHCP server. For more information, refer to the Vanguard IP
Routing Manual (Part Number T0100-03).
Vanguard Ethernet QoS 802.1 P & Q VLAN Support
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a switched network that is logically segmented on an
organizational basis rather than on a physical or geographical basis. Workstations or
servers used by a particular work group team, can be connected to the same VLAN,
regardless of their physical connection to the network. For more information, refer to
the Vanguard IP Routing Manual (Part Number T0100-03).
Vanguard Interoperability with RADIUS Authentication
The purpose of Remote Authentication Dial-In User Server (RADIUS) is to enable
Vanguard routers to interoperate and support RADIUS attributes. Vanguard routers
are able to act as a RADIUS client. For more information, refer to the Vanguard IP
Routing Manual (Part Number T0100-03).
