Features and benefits

• Enhanced Performance (EP) technology:

– Extended port density to enhance system capabilities and overall investment protection

– sFlow (RFC 3176) wire-speed traffic accounting and monitoring

– Jumbo frames on Gigabit and 10 Gigabit ports allow high-performance remote backup and disaster recovery services

– Increased on-board memory and flash capacity for more robust management capabilities

• 10 Gigabit Ethernet: simplify data center configurations and increase backbone throughput

• T-Flow traffic management: simultaneously process access control lists (ACLs), perform policy-based routing (PBR), perform network address translation (NAT), and collect and export statistics for NetFlow-based accounting and billing, all at wire speed

•Up to 345 million pps performance: provides the high performance required by large networks

• Layer 4 prioritization: delivers QoS (quality of service) for delay-sensitive applications

• IP/IPX/AppleTalk routing: provides routing of IP and IPX at media speed

• IP multicast routing: provides IGMP, DVMRP, PIM-dense, PIM-sparse, and PIM snooping mode support in routed environments to control multicast traffic

•Unparalleled security: protection against denial-of-service attacks; Secure Shell, Secure Copy, wire-speed rate limiting, and user authentication (with AAA, RADIUS, and TACACS+) prevent unauthorized network access and associated downtime

• Policy-based VLANs: allow you to assign VLANs on a port, protocol, subnet, or IEEE 802.1Q tagged basis

•Hardware-based wire-speed access control lists: feature rich ACL implementation (selective ACL logging, scalability, and syntax compatibility) to ensure high levels of security and ease of administration without impacting network performance

• Port trunking: for higher switch-to-switch and switch-to-server throughput and link-level redundancy, with support for standards-based link aggregation (IEEE 802.3ad)

• Next-generation Spanning Tree functionality: single instance STP, Per VLAN Spanning Tree (PVST), Per VLAN
Group STP (PVGST) based on IEEE 802.1s, and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol based on IEEE 802.1w all
provide improved availability and scalability for Spanning Tree-based networks

• Software updates: free downloads from the Web

• Optional redundant power supply: provides uninterrupted power for high availability

• Hot-swappable chassis modules: allow you to swap modules without interrupting the network

•Automatic routing switch failover: provides hot standby redundancy using standards-based VRRP (Virtual Router
Redundancy Protocol) or SRP (Standby Routing Protocol) • Optional redundant management: provides automatic
failover from the active management module to the standby management module for high availability

• Industry-leading warranty: one-year next-business-day advance replacement (available in most countries) with
extensions available

• Full-featured console: provides complete control of the switch with a familiar command line interface

•Web interface: allows you to configure the switch from any Web browser on the network

2 These modules require an EP management module (J4885A) in the same chassis.
3 These modules require a non-EP management module (J4857A or J4879A, for
example) in the same chassis.
4 Redundancy requires software version 07.6.01 or greater.
5 This module requires either the EP management module (J4885A) or the standard
management module (J4857A, for example).
