ProSAFE® Intelligent Edge Managed Switches Modern access layer features highlights Data Sheet M4300 series High Density Layer 2/Layer 3/Layer 4 Stackable Switch Solution M4300 switch series supports Nonstop Forwarding • Any 10G port (copper, fiber) and any media type (RJ45, SFP+, DAC) can be used for stacking on any (NSF) virtual chassis stacking with up to 384 ports in a M4300 model single logical switch, with hitless management failover • Hot-swappable stacking of up to 8 units, vertical or horizontal • 10G models can stack with 1G models in legacy dual ring topologies, or innovative spine and leaf topologies • 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 M4300 series Layer 3 software package provides advanced IPv4/IPv6 fault tolerant routing capabilities for interfaces, VLANs, subnets and multicast Example of single or dual ring topology: Example of spine and leaf topology: 10G "Spine" Switches 10G links (Copper, Fiber) 10G links (Copper, Fiber) 1G "Leaf" Switches 1G models: up to (4) 10G ports per switch can be used for stacking (depending on inter-switch links oversubscription requirements) Best value switching performance: 10G models: up to (16) 10G ports per switch can be used for stacking (again, depending on oversubscription requirements between switches) 48p 10G models: 128K MAC address table, 4K concurrent VLANs and 12K Layer 3 route table size for the most demanding enterprise or campus networks All other models: 16K MAC address table, 4K concurrent VLANs and 512 Layer 3 route table size for typical midsize environnements Mixed stacking between more capable and less capable devices uses SDM template based on "least commom denominator" set of capacities and capabilities Each switch provides line-rate local switching and routing capacity 80 PLUS certified power supplies for energy high efficiency Full width models come with two PSU bays and one modular power supply: a second PSU (sold separately) will add 1+1 power redundancy Increased packet buffering with up to 72 Mb (48p 10G models), 32 Mb (24p 10G models) and 16 Mb (all other models) for most intensive applications Low latency at all network speeds, including 10 Gigabit copper and fiber interfaces Jumbo frames support of up to 9Kb 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 Page 5 of 49
