Ethernet network security

  • IP Source Guard provides source IP address filtering at layer 2 to limit an unauthorised host impersonating the IP address of an authenticated user.
  • The aggregation series supports DHCP Snooping, which helps prevent attacks using a rogue DHCP server and lets you set trusted and unused ports.
  • Access Control Lists (ACLs) can be used to restrict access to sensitive network resources by filtering packets according to defined rules.
  • The aggregation series supports L2 security features such as ARP protection, ARP scanning and MAC protection mechanisms.
  • Port-based access control (IEEE 802.1X) allows user authorisation before gaining access to the network.

Stacking

  • Virtual Switch Framework (VSF) lets you combine multiple DCN switches into one logical device.
  • Using VSF simplifies management, increases operational reliability and lets you share information tables and data between switches.

Advanced QoS features

  • With 8 queues per port, the aggregation series enables differentiated classification of up to 8 traffic types.
  • Traffic can be prioritised according to IEEE 802.1p, DSCP, IP and TCP/UDP port number, which supports real-time applications such as voice and video.

10Gb ports

  • The aggregation series offers 6 ten-gigabit ports that can work as redundant links, increasing network scalability and performance.
  • SFP+ ports support 10-gigabit and 1-gigabit transmission.

Features with no hidden costs

  • Switches in this series have their features available without the need to purchase additional licences.
