The switch also offers a variety of manageability and network management features, such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), Web UI, and CLI, making it easy to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot your network.
In summary, the JQ076A 4 Slot 96 10/25 GB Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) 28 Ports & 8 100GB Layer 3 QSFP28 Ports & 2GB Switch is a high-performance, modular switch that is well-suited for enterprise and data center environments. It provides a wide range of connectivity options, advanced Layer 3 switching and routing capabilities, Power Over Ethernet (PoE) support, and a variety of security and manageability features.
Port Configuration and Connectivity Options
The PE FlexFabric 5945 4-slot switch is a managed Layer 3 switch that has 96 ports for 10/25 Gigabit SFP28 and 8 ports for 100 Gigabit connectivity. The ports can be configured for various network protocols and functions, including VLANs, QoS, and routing. The switch also supports features such as FlexFabric, Virtual Link Trunking (VLT), and Virtual Machine Fabric Extender (VM-FEX) for enhanced network flexibility and scalability. It also supports advanced security features such as access control lists (ACLs) and IP security (IPsec).
Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Management
Quality of Service (QoS) and Traffic Management are features that allow administrators to prioritize, shape, and control network traffic in order to ensure that critical applications and services receive the necessary bandwidth and low latency.
QoS uses a variety of techniques to classify, mark, and prioritize network traffic based on various criteria such as IP address, port number, and type of service (ToS). This allows administrators to ensure that important traffic such as voice and video is given priority over less critical traffic such as file transfers and email.
Traffic management refers to the set of techniques and policies used to control and shape network traffic in order to prevent congestion and ensure that network resources are used efficiently. This can include techniques such as rate limiting, traffic shaping, and congestion control.
QoS and Traffic Management options for PE FlexFabric 5945 4-slot switch include
- Traffic classification based on Layer 2, 3, and 4 information
- Per-port and per-flow rate limiting
- Priority queuing and strict priority queuing
- Congestion management
- Hierarchical Quality of Service (HQoS)
- Low Latency Queuing (LLQ)
- Class-Based Weighted Fair Queuing (CBWFQ)
- Weighted Random Early Detection (WRED)
It is important to note that the switch supports advanced QoS features such as Multi-flow Match, Hierarchical Scheduling and hierarchical policer, that enables the administrator to have a granular control over the traffic.
Security and Access Control Features
The PE FlexFabric 5945 4-slot switch has a variety of security and access control features to help protect the network from threats and unauthorized access. These features include
- Access Control Lists (ACLs): ACLs allow administrators to define rules that control which devices are allowed to access the network and what they are allowed to do once they are on the network. This can include rules that block certain types of traffic, such as malware or unauthorized protocols, or that limit access to certain parts of the network based on IP address or MAC address.
- Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF): VRF allows administrators to create multiple virtual routing tables on the switch, which can be used to segment the network and provide isolation between different users or groups.
- IP Security (IPsec): IPsec is a set of protocols that provide secure communication over IP networks. The switch supports IPsec to encrypt traffic between devices, which can help protect against eavesdropping and tampering.
- Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Copy (SCP): SSH and SCP provide secure, encrypted methods for remotely accessing and managing the switch.
- IEEE 802.1X: IEEE 802.1X is a standard that provides a framework for authenticating users or devices on a LAN or WLAN. The switch supports 802.1X to control access to the network based on user or device credentials.
- RADIUS and TACACS+: RADIUS and TACACS+ are protocols that allow the switch to authenticate users and devices against a centralized server. This can be useful for managing large numbers of users and devices, and for providing auditing and reporting capabilities.
- DHCP Snooping: DHCP Snooping is a security feature that helps protect against DHCP spoofing attacks by filtering DHCP messages and only allowing messages from authorized DHCP servers.
- ARP Inspection: ARP Inspection is a security feature that helps protect against ARP spoofing attacks by validating ARP messages and only allowing messages from authorized devices.
All of these features can be configured and managed through the switch’s command-line interface (CLI) or web interface.
