Main Features - Digitalchina Networks DCS-3950 series Manual

Spanning tree
The DCS-3950 series supports IEEE802.1D spanning tree and IEEE802.1w rapid
spanning tree. Spanning tree can effectively avoid loop, and at the same time, create a
redundant backup for the link.
Port Mirroring
The DCS-3950 series supports port mirroring, which can mirror the inbound/outbound
traffic of one or more ports to another port, in order to detect relative information of data.
This function can be used to debug network faults and monitor the network traffic.
DHCP Server, Client
The DCS-3950 series supports DHCP server, which can dynamically allocate IP
addresses for equipments, and bind MAC with IP by designating a specified IP for a
specified MAC.
RADIUS
The DCS-3950 series supports RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial In User
Service). RADIUS allows users to authenticate identity via IEEE802.1x protocol.
Complete Network Management
The DCS-3950 series can do out-of-band and in-band management via Console,
Telnet, Web and SNMP. Console and Telnet management support standard
CLI( Command Line Interface), which makes the operation easier and faster, and also
provide bilingual instructions in Chinese and English. Web management provides a
remote browsing graphic management interface to make management more direct and
convenient, to enable fast check of working state and to do real-time configuration
management. SNMP management is in accordance with V1, V2C and V3 standard
version, supporting Ether-Like MIB, Bridge MIB and MIB II, as well as standard
management information libraries such as RMON 1/2/3/9 MIB II etc. The full SNMP
network management can be realized via LinkManager, one China network managing
software developed by the Digital China Limited. The DCS-3950 series also supports SSH
protocol to farthest ensure the safety of configuration management. What's more, the
DCS-3950 series provide an unique function to manage and set the IP of workstations,
enabling the switch to automatically filter invalid remote network management access and
guaranteeing the efficiency, security and coherence of remote network management
access.
