Intelligent Gigabit Layer 3+ Switches

The x600 Layer 3+ switches offer an impressive set of features in a high-value package.

Network Access Control (NAC) assures security, giving you unprecedented control over

user access to the network to mitigate threats to network infrastructure. 802.1x port-based

authentication, in partnership with standards-compliant dynamic VLAN assignment, assesses a

user’s network security adherence and either grants authentication or offers remediation.

The x600 family is scalable, with an extensive range of port-density and uplink-connectivity

options. With a choice of 24-port and 48-port versions, plus the ability to stack up to 4

units, the x600 family can connect anything from a small workgroup right up to a large

business. The choice of 1 Gigabit or 10 Gigabit uplink ports allows you to tailor the uplink

bandwidth to suit your network application.

Virtual Chassis Stacking (VCStack

TM)

provides excellent resiliency. You can create a single

"virtual chassis" from up to four physical switches.

If one stacked switch fails, traffic routes seamlessly

to another, preventing network disruption. VCStack

delivers a resilient solution at a fraction of the cost of

a full chassis-based system, and you can manage the

stack as a single network node, greatly simplifying your

management tasks.

Enjoy high performance - stacking bandwidth is

provided separately from the 10-gig uplink ports -

enabling a 4-unit stack to have a massive 160 Gigabits

of uplink bandwidth with no reduction in stacking

backplane throughput.

Key Features

Secure - Advanced security features protect your network - from the edge to the core. Network Access Control (NAC) gives

unprecedented control over user access to your network

Scalable - Enjoy the choice of 24 port and 48 port options, coupled with the ability to stack up to 4 units, as well as an extensive

range of port density and uplink connectivity options.

Resilient - VCStack provides fast failover for uninterrupted network service. Sophisticated high availability features ensure traffic

flow continues even during outages.

High-performing - Non-blocking architecture and superior QoS ensure wire-speed delivery of all your critical IPv4 and IPv6 traffic.

Easy to manage - The industry standard CLI reduces training needs, and each VCStack appears as one virtual chassis with a single

IP address to simplify management. 'Network in a Box' simplifies administration. Plus, the GUI allows easy management control.

Advanced security features protect your network - from the edge to the core. Network Access Control (NAC) High-performing NAC allows for unprecedented control over user access to the network, in order to mitigate threats to network infrastructure. The x600 switches use 802.

x600 SERIES | Intelligent Gigabit Layer 3+ Switches What's new Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) Snooping DHCP servers allocate IP addresses to clients, and the switch keeps a record of addresses issued on each port. IP Source Guard checks against this DHCP snooping database to ensure only clients with specific IP and/or MAC address can access the network.

x600 SERIES | Intelligent Gigabit Layer 3+ Switches Key Solution - Network Access Control (NAC) One of the major security issues facing enterprise networks is how to prevent internal breaches and malicious software infiltration. Internal defence requires significant involvement with individual network devices, which is costly and time consuming. NAC lowers this overhead and provides an effective solution to internal network security.
