FEATURE

DESCRIPTION

VLAN

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be

partitioned into multiple logical networks. Devices on a logical network

belong to one group. A device can belong to more than one group. With

VLAN, a device cannot directly talk to or hear from devices that are not

in the same group(s); the traffic must first go through a router.

MAC Address Filter

Filter traffic based on the source and/or destination MAC address and

VLAN group (ID).

DHCP (Dynamic Host

Configuration Protocol)

Use this feature to have the relay DHCP requests to DHCP servers on

your network.

IGMP Snooping

The Switch supports IGMP snooping enabling group multicast traffic to

be only forwarded to ports that are members of that group; thus allowing

you to significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your Switch.

Differentiated Services

(DiffServ)

With DiffServ, the Switch marks packets so that they receive specific

per-hop treatment at DiffServ-compliant network devices along the route

based on the application types and traffic flow.

Queuing

Queuing is used to help solve performance degradation when there is

network congestion. Three scheduling services are supported: Strict

Priority Queuing (SPQ) and Weighted Round Robin (WRR). This allows

the Switch to maintain separate queues for packets from each individual

source or flow and prevent a source from monopolizing the bandwidth.

Port Mirroring

Port mirroring allows you to copy traffic going from one or all ports to

another or all ports in order that you can examine the traffic from the

mirror port (the port you copy the traffic to) without interference.

Static Route

Static routes tell the Switch how to forward IP traffic when you configure

the TCP/IP parameters manually.

Multicast VLAN Registration

(MVR)

Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) is designed for applications (such as

Media-on-Demand (MoD)) using multicast traffic across a network. MVR

allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different

subscriber VLANs on the network.
This improves bandwidth utilization by reducing multicast traffic in the

subscriber VLANs and simplifies multicast group management.

STP (Spanning Tree

Protocol) / RSTP (Rapid

STP) / MSTP (Multiple STP)

(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links

between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a Switch to interact with

other (R)STP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one

path exists between any two stations on the network. The Switch also

allows you to set up multiple STP configurations (or trees). Ports can

then be assigned to the trees.

Loop Guard

Use the loop guard feature to protect against network loops on the edge

of your network.
