transmission distance or the transmission speed required to extend the network
efciently. The MGSW-28240F provides broad bandwidth and powerful processing
capacity.
Front-access Interface Design
The Metro Ethernet Switch comes with a user-friendly front-access design to help
technicians improve wiring and installation efficiency, whereas, in the traditional
design, the power socket, console port and even some extension module were
always placed on the rear of the product. When technicians are installing or
maintaining the older switch model on the rack, they have to be careful with other
surrounding online devices as the rear-end of the product cannot be seen clearly.
With the front-access design, technicians can avoid messing with other nearby
devices.
Layer 3 Routing Support
The MGSW-28240F enables the administrator to conveniently boost network
efficiency by configuring Layer 3 IPv4/IPv6 VLAN static routing manually, and the
IPv4 OSPFv2 (Open Shortest Path First) settings automatically. The OSPF is an
interior dynamic routing protocol for autonomous system based on link state. The
protocol creates a database for link state by exchanging link states among Layer 3
switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table
based on that database.
Network with Cybersecurity Helps Minimize Security Risks
The MGSW-28240F comes with enhanced cybersecurity to fend off cyberthreats
and cyberattacks, it supports SSHv2, TLSv1.2 and SNMPv3 protocols to provide
strong protection against advanced threats. Served as a key point to transmit data
to customer's critical equipment in a business network, the cybersecurity feature of
the MGSW-28240F protects the switch management and enhances the security of
the mission-critical network without any extra deployment cost and effort.
Redundant Ring, Fast Recovery for Critical Network Applications
The MGSW-28240F supports redundant ring technology and features strong,
rapid self-recovery capability to prevent interruptions and external intrusions. It
incorporates advanced ITU-T G.8032 ERPS (Ethernet Ring Protection Switching)
technology, Spanning Tree Protocol (802.1s MSTP), and redundant power input
system into customer’s industrial automation network to enhance system reliability
and uptime in harsh factory environments. In a certain, simple Ring network, the
recovery time of data link can be as fast as 10ms.
