Chapter 47 Product Specifications Table 182 Firmware Specifications FEATURE DESCRIPTION IP Multicast With IP multicast, the Switch delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on the network-not everybody. In addition, the Switch can send packets to Ethernet devices that are not VLAN-aware by untagging (removing the VLAN tags) IP multicast packets. STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) / RSTP (Rapid STP)/MSTP (Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol) (M)(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a Switch to interact with other (M)(R)STP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one path exists between any two stations on the network. Loop Guard Use the loop guard feature to protect against network loops on the edge of your network. IP Source Guard Use IP source guard to filter unauthorized DHCP and ARP packets in your network. Link Aggregation Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port link. Port Authentication and Security For security, the Switch allows authentication using IEEE 802.1x with an external RADIUS server and port security that allows only packets with dynamically learned MAC addresses and/or configured static MAC addresses to pass through a port on the Switch. Authentication and Accounting The Switch supports authentication and accounting services via RADIUS and TACACS+ Authentication servers. Device Management Use the Web Configurator or commands to easily configure the rich range of features on the Switch. Port Cloning Use the port cloning feature to copy the settings you configure on one port to another port or ports. Syslog The Switch can generate syslog messages and send it to a syslog server. Firmware Upgrade Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and use the Web Configurator, CLI or an FTP/TFTP tool to put it on the Switch. Configuration Backup & Restoration VDSL Template Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model! Make a copy of the Switch's configuration and put it back on the Switch later if you decide you want to revert back to an earlier configuration. At the time of writing, you can configure one VDSL line profile and VDSL channel profile in one VDSL template on the Switch. The following list, which is not exhaustive, illustrates the standards supported in the Switch.

The following list, which is not exhaustive, illustrates the standards supported in the Switch.
IP Multicast
With IP multicast, the Switch delivers IP packets to a group of hosts on
the network-not everybody. In addition, the Switch can send packets to
Ethernet devices that are not VLAN-aware by untagging (removing the
VLAN tags) IP multicast packets.
STP (Spanning Tree
Protocol) / RSTP (Rapid
STP)/MSTP (Multiple
Spanning Tree Protocol)
(M)(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links
between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a Switch to interact with
other (M)(R)STP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that
only one path exists between any two stations on the network.
Loop Guard
Use the loop guard feature to protect against network loops on the
edge of your network.
IP Source Guard
Use IP source guard to filter unauthorized DHCP and ARP packets in
your network.
Link Aggregation
Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one
logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example,
it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a
high-speed, but more costly, single-port link.
Port Authentication and
Security
For security, the Switch allows authentication using IEEE 802.1x with
an external RADIUS server and port security that allows only packets
with dynamically learned MAC addresses and/or configured static MAC
addresses to pass through a port on the Switch.
Authentication and
Accounting
The Switch supports authentication and accounting services via
RADIUS and TACACS+ Authentication servers.
Device Management
Use the Web Configurator or commands to easily configure the rich
range of features on the Switch.
Port Cloning
Use the port cloning feature to copy the settings you configure on one
port to another port or ports.
Syslog
The Switch can generate syslog messages and send it to a syslog
server.
Firmware Upgrade
Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and
use the Web Configurator, CLI or an FTP/TFTP tool to put it on the
Switch.
Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!
Configuration Backup &
Restoration
Make a copy of the Switch’s configuration and put it back on the Switch
later if you decide you want to revert back to an earl
i
er configuration.
VDSL Template
At the time of writing, you can configure one VDSL line profile and
VDSL channel profile in one VDSL template on the Switch.
