ProSAFE® LAN Access and Aggregation Chassis Switches Modern access layer features highlights Data Sheet M6100 series High Density Layer 2/Layer 3/Layer 4 Chassis Switch Solution M6100 series chassis switch provides extra high-density in 4U height (7 inches - 17.59cm) and only 17.39 inches depth (44.16cm) • M6100 series uses latest generation silicon low-power 40-nanometer technology • Up to 144 RJ45 10/100/1000 ports, or 120 SFP 100/1000 ports, or 72 RJ45 10GBASE-T ports, or 48 SFP+ 1000/10GBASE-X ports, or a combination • L2, L3 and L4 switching features (access control list, classification, filtering, IPv4/IPv6 routing, IPv6 transition services) are performed in hardware at interface line rate for voice, video, and data convergence M6100 series Layer 3 software package provides advanced IPv4/IPv6 fault tolerant routing capabilities for interfaces, VLANs, subnets and multicast Top-of-the-line switching performance 32K MAC address table, 4K concurrent VLANs and 12K Layer 3 route table size for the most demanding enterprise or campus networks Each line-card (I/O blade) provides line-rate local switching and routing capacity Each slot provides 2 x 40G channels (80G half-duplex/160G full duplex) access to passive backplane 480 Gbps inter module distributed fabric for up to 1.4 Tbps total routing/switching capacity Up to 1,071 Mpps intra-blade throughput and 357 Mpps inter-blade throughput 80 PLUS certified power supplies for energy high efficiency Increased packet buffering with up to 32 Mb (Gigabit blades) and 72 Mb (10 Gigabit blades) for most intensive applications Low latency at all network speeds, including 10 Gigabit copper and fiber interfaces Jumbo frames support of up to 12Kb accelerating storage performance for backup and cloud applications iSCSI Flow Acceleration and Automatic Protection/ QoS for virtualization and server room networks containing iSCSI initiators and iSCSI targets • Detecting the establishment and termination of iSCSI sessions and connections by snooping packets used in the iSCSI protocol • Maintaining a database of currently active iSCSI sessions and connections to store data, including classifier rules for desired QoS treatment • Installing and removing classifier rule sets as needed for the iSCSI session traffic • Monitoring activity in the iSCSI sessions to allow for aging out session entries if the session termination packets are not received • Avoiding session interruptions during times of congestion that would otherwise cause iSCSI packets to be dropped Tier 1 availability M6100 series is designed upon Distributed Fabric innovative concept, providing passive backplane, redundant fabric and redundant management • Distributed fabric removes the need for a dedicated supervisory module yet simplifying inventory management, maintenance and upgrades • Equipped with high-end hardware and software distributed fabric on board, any I/O blade can efficiently handle supervisory role in slot 1 • When inserted in slot 2, any I/O blade can handle back-up supervisory role for both management and fabric (active/passive stand-by mode) • In case of a failure for the supervisory blade in slot 1 (removal), the back-up supervisor in slot 2 is instantly taking over as the new supervisor • Instant failover from slot 1 to slot 2 is hitless for non-stop forwarding world-class resiliency and availability • Back to normal production conditions, hitless failback requires a command in CLI (movemanagement ) or in GUI, for more control Any M6100 I/O blades support hot-plug and hot-swap and can be inserted in any slot of M6100 base chassis switch M6100-3S base chassis features a passive backplane for exceptional availability and 387 years MTBF when at 25°C ambient (90 years at 50°C ambient) Page 5 of 48
