Voice Lan: Voice traffic is automatically assigned to a voice-specific VLAN and treated with appropriate levels of QoS
Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)/Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP): Protocols for automatically propagating and configuring VLANs in a bridged domain
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Relay at Layer 2: Relay of DHCP traffic to DHCP server in different VLAN. Works with DHCP Option 82
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) versions 1, 2, and 3 snooping: IGMP limits bandwidth-intensive multicast traffic to only the requesters; supports 256 multicast groups (source-specific multicasting is also supported)
IGMP Querier IGMP querier is used to support a Layer 2 multicast domain of snooping switches in the absence of a multicast router
Head-of-line (HOL) blocking: HOL blocking prevention |
Layer 3 |
IPv4 Routing: Wirespeed routing of IPv4 packets Up to 32 static routes and up to 32 IP interfaces
Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR): Support for CIDR
DHCP relay at Layer 3: Relay of DHCP traffic across IP domains
User Datagram Protocol (UDP) relay: Relay of broadcast information across Layer 3 domains for application discovery or relaying of BootP/DHCP packets |
Security |
Secure Shell Protocol (SSH): SSH secures Telnet traffic to and from the switch; SSH v1 and v2 are supported
Secure Sockets Layer (SSL): SSL support: Encrypts all HTTPS traffic, allowing highly secure access to the browser-based management GUI in the switch

Class of Service: Port based; 802.1p VLAN priority based; IPv4/v6 IP precedence/type of service (ToS)/DSCP based; Differentiated Services (DiffServ); classification and re-marking ACLs, trusted QoS
Rate Limiting: Ingress policer; egress shaping and rate control; per VLAN, per port, and flow based |

Management |
Web user interface: Built-in switch configuration utility for easy browser-based device configuration (HTTP/HTTPS). Supports configuration, system dashboard, system maintenance, and monitoring
Remote Monitoring (RMON): Embedded RMON software agent supports 4 RMON groups (history, statistics, alarms, and events) for enhanced traffic management, monitoring, and analysis
IPv4 and IPv6 dual stack: Coexistence of both protocol stacks to ease migration
Firmware upgrade: • Web browser upgrade (HTTP/HTTPS) and TFTP • Upgrade can be initiated through console port as well • Dual images for resilient firmware upgrades
Port mirroring: Traffic on a port can be mirrored to another port for analysis with a network analyzer or RMON probe. Up to 8 source ports can be mirrored to one destination port. A single session is supported
VLAN mirroring: Traffic from a VLAN can be mirrored to a port for analysis with a network analyzer or RMON probe. Up to 8 source VLANs can be mirrored to one destination port. A single session is supported
