By addressing the entire spectrum of Ethernet data rates (10/100/1000 Mbps), the
switches enable you to introduce high-speed Gigabit Ethernet backbones into your
existing network, while maintaining established connections to the 10 Mbps and 100
Mbps segments that already exist.
The switches have the following features:
" Support for 128K MAC addresses or 64K IP addresses in the switch
forwarding database (FDB)
" Fully nonblocking operation - all ports transmit and receive packets at wire
speed
" Auto-negotiation for full-duplex operation and speed on Fast Ethernet
(10/100 Mbps) ports
" Auto-negotiation for half- or full-duplex operation on Gigabit Ethernet
(1000 Mbps) ports
" Optional redundant power supply (AT-RPS1000)
" Redundant physical Gigabit Ethernet backbone connection
" Virtual local area networks (VLANs) including support for 802.1Q
" Policy-Based Quality of Service (PB-QoS)
" Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) (IEEE 802.1D) with multiple STP domains
" Wirespeed Internet Protocol (IP) routing
" IP Multinetting using the Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP)
" DHCP/BOOTP Relay
" Routing Information Protocol (RIP) version 1 and RIP version 2
" Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol
" Wirespeed IP multicast routing support
" IGMP snooping to control IP multicast traffic
" Distance Vector Multicast Routing Protocol (DVMRP)
" Protocol Independent Multicast-Dense Mode (PIM-DM)
" IPX, IPX/RIP, and IPX/SAP support
" Console command line interface (CLI) connection
" Telnet CLI connection
