QuickSpecs
Overview
Gigabit Ethernet port aggregation
allows grouping of ports to increase overall data throughput to a remote device
10 GbE port aggregation
allows grouping of ports to increase overall data throughput to a remote device
Spanning Tree/MSTP, RSTP, and STP Root Guard
prevent network loops
IPFIX/sFlow
allows traffic sampling
Spanning Tree Protocols (STP, MSTP, and RSTP) and STP root guard
helps prevent network loops; up to 32 MSTP instances available
Layer 3 services
Address Resolution Protocol (ARP)
determines the MAC address of another IP host in the same subnet; supports static ARPs; gratuitous ARP allows detection of
duplicate IP addresses; proxy ARP allows normal ARP operation between subnets or when subnets are separated by a Layer 2
network
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
simplifies the management of large IP networks and supports client and server; DHCP Relay enables DHCP operation across
subnets
Layer 3 routing
Layer 3 IPv4 routing
provides routing of IPv4 at media speed; supports static routes, RIP and RIPv2, OSPF, IS-IS, and BGP
RIP and RIPng support
provides complete support of RIP for both IPv4 and IPv6
OSPF and OSPFv3 support
provides complete support of OSPF for both IPv4 and IPv6
IS-IS and IS-ISv6 support
provides complete support of IS-IS for both IPv4 and IPv6
Layer 3 IPv6 routing
provides routing of IPv6 at media speed; supports static routes, RIPng, OSPFv3, IS-ISv6, and BGP4+
Bidirectional Forwarding Detection (BFD)
enables link connectivity monitoring and reduces network convergence time for RIP, OSPF, BGP, IS-IS, VRRP, MPLS, and IRF
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRP) and VRRP Extended
allow quick failover of router ports
Policy-based routing
makes routing decisions based on policies set by the network administrator
IGMPv1, v2, and v3
allow individual hosts to be registered on a particular VLAN
PIM-SSM, PIM-DM, and PIM-SM (for IPv4 and IPv6)
support IP Multicast address management and inhibition of DoS attacks
Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP)
enables multiple equal-cost links in a routing environment to increase link redundancy and scale bandwidth
NEW MPLS support
provides extended support of MPLS, including MPLS VPNs and MPLS Traffic Engineering (MPLS TE)
NEW VPLS support
provides extended support of VPLS for data center to data center communication at Layer 2; provides support of hierarchical
VPLS for scalability
