Simplified management
A Stack of Ethernet Routing Switch 5000
Switches can be managed as a single entity
through one IP Address, simplifying
network management.
The ERS 5000 Series offers the highest
level of secure management with features
including Secure Shell (SSH), IP
Manager Lists, RADIUS and TACACS+
Authentication, Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMPv3), and
Nortel's Secure Network Access.
Dual Image support
The ERS 5000 Series supports dual agent
images
1
. This allows an Administrator to
download a newer image to the Switch/
Stack, and specify when the unit should
reboot to take the new image, and
even after a new image is installed and
running, the Administrator still has the
ability to 'roll back' to the previous image.
IPv6 Management
The ERS 5000 Series supports either
IPv4 or IPv6-based management. Simply
select whether the Switch/Stack should
be managed via IPv4 or IPv6, enter the
Switch/Stack IP Address in the correct
format, and the appropriate management
paradigm becomes operational.

Dual Agent functionality is not available on the ERS 5510 models.
