Layer 3 IPv4 and IPv6 VLAN Routing for Secure and Flexible Management

The IGS-R4215-24P4X switch not only provides ultra high transmission performance, and excellent Layer 2 and Layer 4 technologies. It also Layer 3 IPv4 and IPv6 VLAN routing feature which allows to cross over different VLANs and different IP addresses for the purpose of having a highly-secure, flexibly-managed and simple networking application.

 

Robust Layer 2 Features

The IGS-R4215-24P4X can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic port link aggregation, 802.1Q VLAN and Q-in-Q VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree protocol (MSTP), loop and BPDU guard, IGMP snooping, and MLD snooping. Via the link aggregation, the IGS-R4215-24P4X allows the operation of a high-speed trunk to combine with multiple ports, and supports fail-over as well.  Also, the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is the Layer 2 protocol included to help discover basic information about neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain.

 

 

Efficient Traffic Control

The IGS-R4215-24P4X is loaded with robust QoS features. But also with powerful traffic management to enhance services to business-class data, voice, and video solutions. The functionality includes broadcast/multicast/unicast storm control, per port bandwidth control, 802.1p/CoS/IP DSCP QoS priority and remarking. It guarantees the best performance in VoIP and video stream transmission, and empowers the enterprises to take full advantage of the limited network resources.

 

Enhancing Network Security

PLANET IGS-R4215-24P4X 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. With the protected port function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to guarantee user privacy. Furthermore, Port security function allows to limit the number of network devices on a given port. The network administrators can now construct highly-secure corporate networks with considerably less time and effort than before.

 

User-friendly Management Interfaces

For efficient management, the IGS-R4215-24P4X is equipped with console, Web and SNMP management interfaces.

• With the built-in Web-based management interface, the IGS-R4215-24P4X offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility.
• For text-based management, the switches can be accessed via Telnet and the console port.
• For standard-based monitor and management software, it offers SNMPv3 connection which encrypts the packet content at each session for secure remote management.

Moreover, the IGS-R4215-24P4X offers secure remote management by supporting SSHv2, TLSv1.2 and SNMP v3 connections which encrypt the packet content at each session.

 

IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack Management

Supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 protocols, the IGS-R4215-24P4X helps the SMBs to step in the IPv6 era. It does this with the lowest investment. This because its network facilities need not be replaced or overhauled if the IPv6 FTTx edge network is set up.

 

PoE Schedule for Energy Savings

The global trend is energy saving and contributing to environmental protection. IGS-R4215-24P4X can effectively control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you enable or disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals. This is a powerful function to help SMBs or enterprises save power and budget. It also increases security by powering off PDs that should not be in use during non-business hours.
