User-friendly and Secure Management
The IGS-4215-16T2S comes with enhanced cybersecurity to fend off cyberthreats and cyberattacks. It supports SSHv2, TLS
and SSL protocols to provide strong protection against advanced threats. Served as a key point to transmit data, the
cybersecurity feature of the IGS-4215-16T2S protects the switch management and enhances the security of the mission-critical
network without any extra deployment cost and effort.
Powerful Security
PLANET IGS-4215-16T2S offers comprehensive IPv4/IPv6 Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing
security to the edge. It can be used to restrict network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address,
TCP/UDP ports or defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1X port-based user and
device authentication, which can be deployed with RADIUS to ensure the port level security and block illegal users. With the
Protected Port function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to guarantee user privacy. Furthermore, Port
Security function allows limiting the number of network devices on a given port.
Advanced Network Security
The IGS-4215-16T2S also provides DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard and Dynamic ARP Inspection functions to prevent IP
snooping from attack and discard ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrators can now construct
highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexibility and Long-distance Extension Solution
The two additional SFP slots built in the IGS-4215-16T2S support 100BASE-FX /1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor
Pluggable) fiber transceivers to uplink to backbone switch in long distance. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2
kilometers (multi-mode fiber) and up to 120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications
within the enterprise data centers and distributions.
