ProSAFE® LAN Access and Aggregation Chassis Switches Data Sheet M6100 series UPOE (Universal Power over Ethernet) provides up to 60W per port using 4 pairs while offering backward compatilibity with 802.3af and 802.3at • UPOE LLDP TLV, an 802.3 organizationally specific TLV, is fully supported for compatibility with UPOE next-generation PD devices • Additionally, a forced 4-pair high power static method is supported in CLI or Web GUI to enable the forced 4-pair configuration Large 10 Gigabit choice for uplinks with SFP+ ports for fiber or short, low-latency copper DAC cables; 10GBase-T ports for legacy Cat6 RJ45 short connections (up to 50m) and Cat6A / Cat7 connections up to 100m Automatic MDIX and Auto-negotiation on all ports select the right transmission modes (half or full duplex) as well as data transmission for crossover or straightthrough cables dynamically for the admin IPv6 full support with IPv6 host, dual stack (IPv4 and IPv6), multicasting (MLD for IPv6 filtering and PIM-SM / PIM-DM for IPv6 routing), ACLs and QoS, static routing and dynamic routing (OSPFv3) as well as Configured 6to4 and Automatic 6to4 tunneling for IPv6 traffic encapsulation into IPv4 packets Ease of management and granular control Distributed fabric technology simplifies network operations, bringing simplicity for maintenance, upgrades and spare inventory management • When inserted in Slot 1, any I/O blade will handle the supervisory role • When inserted in Slot 2, any I/O blade will handle the back-up supervisory role Dual firmware image and dual configuration file for transparent firmware updates / configuration changes with minimum service interruption Flexible Port-Channel/LAG (802.3ad - 802.1AX) implementation for maximum compatibility, fault tolerance and load sharing with any type of Ethernet channeling from other vendors switch, server or storage devices conforming to IEEE 802.3ad - including static (selectable hashing algorithms) - or to IEEE 802.1AX with dynamic LAGs or port-channel (highly tunable LACP Link Aggregation Control Protocol ) Unidirectional Link Detection Protocol (UDLD) and Aggressive UDLD detect and avoid unidirectional links automatically, in order to prevent forwarding anomalies in a Layer 2 communication channel in which a bi-directional link stops passing traffic in one direction Port names feature allows for descriptive names on all interfaces and better clarity in real word admin daily tasks SDM (System Data Management, or switch database) templates allow for granular system resources distribution depending on IPv4 or IPv6 applications: • ARP Entries (the maximum number of entries in the IPv4 Address Resolution Protocol ARP cache for routing interfaces) • IPv4 Unicast Routes (the maximum number of IPv4 unicast forwarding table entries) • IPv6 NDP Entries (the maximum number of IPv6 Neighbor Discovery Protocol NDP cache entries) • IPv6 Unicast Routes (the maximum number of IPv6 unicast forwarding table entries) • ECMP Next Hops (the maximum number of next hops that can be installed in the IPv4 and IPv6 unicast forwarding tables) • IPv4 Multicast Routes (the maximum number of IPv4 multicast forwarding table entries) • IPv6 Multicast Routes (the maximum number of IPv6 multicast forwarding table entries) Loopback interfaces management for routing protocols administration Private VLANs and local Proxy ARP help reduce broadcast with added security Management VLAN ID is user selectable for best convenience Industry-standard VLAN management in the command line interface (CLI) for all common operations such as VLAN creation; VLAN names; VLAN "make static" for dynamically created VLAN by GRVP registration; VLAN trunking; VLAN participation as well as VLAN ID (PVID) and VLAN tagging for one interface, a group of interfaces or all interfaces at once Simplified VLAN configuration with industry-standard Access Ports for 802.1Q unaware endpoints and Trunk Ports for switch-to-switchs links with Native VLAN System defaults automatically set per-port broadcast, multicast, and unicast storm control for typical, robust protection against DoS attacks and faulty clients which can, with BYOD, often create network and performance issues IP Telephony administration is simplified with consistent Voice VLAN capabilities per the industry standards and automatic functions associated Comprehensive set of "system utilities" and "Clear" commands help troubleshoot connectivity issues and restore various configurations to their factory defaults for maximum admin efficiency: traceroute (to discover the routes that packets actually take when traveling on a hop-by-hop basis and with a synchronous response when initiated from the CLI), clear dynamically learned MAC addresses, counters, IGMP snooping table entries from the Multicast forwarding database etc... Replaceable factory-default configuration file for predictable network reset All major centralized software distribution platforms are supported for central software upgrades and configuration files management (HTTP, TFTP), including in highly secured versions (HTTPS, SFTP, SCP) Page 7 of 48
