Flexible TCAM-based ContentAware™ Classification technology
for affordable security and Access Control List
Double Tagging enables ISP applications.
•
Double Tagging supports traffic aggregation
QoS packet classification supports four priority queues
Port-based VLAN and 802.1Q VLAN with 4K entries
Spanning Tree (IEEE 802.1D/1s/1w)
•
•
Enables a new generation of lower cost FE switches with the
highest integration of enhanced L2+ features and maximum
connectivity.
Optimized for WebSuperSmart™ managed switch design.
•
•
MAC-based trunking with automatic link failover
Port mirroring
802.1Q VLAN allows segmentation of network into smaller
broadcast domains to preserve bandwidth and increase network
security.
Four flexible Class of Service (CoS) queues per port ensure the
lowest latency to high-priority traffic. This enables the switch to
support a wide variety of delay-sensitive video and audio multicast
applications.
IEEE 802.3ad link aggregation increases effective bandwidth and
provides redundancy of a link.
IEEE 802.1X Extensive Authentication Protocol over LAN
(EAPOL) plus MAC address locking enhances network port
security.
Storm and Bandwidth/Rate Control provide better traffic profile
management.
Access to all internal registers through EB Bus, SPI, or MDC/
MDIO interfaces.
Hardware support for implementing SNMP and RMON.
