performance; this allows network operators to gather a variety of sophisticated network statistics and information for capacity
planning and real-time network monitoring purposes
Management VLAN
Management VLANManagement VLAN
Management VLAN : segments traffic to and from management interfaces, including CLI/telnet, a Web browser interface, and
SNMP
Device Link Detection Protocol
Device Link Detection ProtocolDevice Link Detection Protocol
Device Link Detection Protocol (DLDP): monitors cable between two switches and shuts down the ports on both ends if the
cable is broken, preventing network problems such as loops
Troubleshooting
TroubleshootingTroubleshooting
Troubleshooting : ingress and egress port monitoring enable network problem solving; virtual cable tests provide visibility into
cable problems
IPv6 management
IPv6 managementIPv6 management
IPv6 management : future-proofs networking, as the switch is capable of being managed whether the attached network is
running IPv4 or IPv6; supports Pingv6, Tracertv6, Telnetv6, TFTPv6, DNSv6, Syslogv6, FTPv6, SNMPv6, and ARPv6
