
Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP)

Policy-based routing

DHCP and DHCPv6 client

VRRP

VXLAN

Advanced classifier-based QoS (with eight queues) - classifies traffic using multiple match criteria
based on Layer 2, 3 and 4 information and applies QoS policies such as priority level and rate limit
to selected traffic on a per-port or per-VLAN basis

Traffic policing - supports Committed Access Rate (CAR) and line rate

Powerful QoS feature - creates traffic classes based on access control lists (ACL), IEEE 802.1p
precedence, IP, DSCP or Type of Service (ToS) precedence; supports filter, redirect, mirror or
remark; supports the following congestion actions: strict priority (SP) queuing, weighted round
robin (WRR), weighted fair queuing (WFQ), and weighted random early discard (WRED)

Storm restraint - allows limitation of broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast traffic rate to cut
down on unwanted broadcast traffic on the network

Intelligent Resilient Framework (IRF) - Creates virtual resilient switching fabrics, up to eight
6127XLG switches acting as a single Layer 2/3 switch; Switches do not have to be co-located and
can be part of a disaster recovery system; Servers or switches can be attached using standard LACP
for automatic load balancing and high availability; Simplifies network operation by eliminating
Spanning Tree, ECMP and VRRP.

Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP) - Monitors Link connectivity and shuts down ports at both
ends if unidirectional traffic is detected
