• Network Time Protocol (NTP) – Synchronizes timekeeping among distributed time servers and clients; keeps timekeeping consistent among all clock-dependent devices within the network so that the devices can provide diverse applications based on the consistent time
• IEEE 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) – Advertises and receives management information from adjacent devices on a network, facilitating easy mapping by network management applications
• Limited CLI – Enables users to quickly deploy and troubleshoot devices in the network
• RMON – Provides advanced monitoring and reporting capabilities for statistics, history, alarms, and events
• Default DHCP Client Mode – Allows the switch to be directly connected to a network, enabling plug-and-play operation; in absence of DHCP server on the network, the switch will fall back to a unique static address determined by the MAC address of the switch

Quality of Service (QoS)

• Broadcast Control – Allows limitation of broadcast traffic rate to cut down on unwanted network broadcast traffic
• Rate Limiting – Sets per-port ingress enforced maximums and per-port, per-queue minimums
• Traffic Prioritization – Provides time-sensitive packets (like VoIP and video) with priority over other traffic based on DSCP or IEEE 802.1p classification; packets are mapped to four hardware queues for more effective throughput

Connectivity

• IPv6 –
  • IPv6 Host – Enables switches to be managed and deployed at the IPv6 network's edge
  • IPv6 Routing – Supports IPv6 static routes
  • MLD Snooping – Forwards IPv6 multicast traffic to the appropriate interface, preventing traffic flooding
  • IPv6 ACL/QoS – Supports ACL and QoS for IPv6 network traffic
• Auto-MDI/MDIX – Adjusts automatically for straight-through or crossover cables on all 10/100/1000 ports
• IEEE 802.3X Flow Control – Provides a flow throttling mechanism propagated through the network to prevent packet loss at a congested node
• IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) Ready – Provides up to 15.4 W per port to power standards-compliant IP phones, wireless LAN access points, Web cameras, and more (all PoE models)
• IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) – Provides up to 30 W per port which allows support of the latest PoE+-capable devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and security cameras, as well as any IEEE 802.3af-compliant end device; eliminates the cost of additional electrical cabling and circuits that would otherwise be necessary in IP phone and WLAN deployments. (Note: applies to all PoE models, except the two 24G-PoE models which support a pre-standard implementation of PoE+)
• Packet Storm Protection – Protects against broadcast, multicast, or unicast storms with user-defined thresholds
• Cable Diagnostics – Detects cable issues remotely, using a browser-based tool

Security

• Advanced Access Control Lists (ACLs) – Enables network traffic filtering and enhances network control using MAC- and IP-based ACLs; time-based ACLs allow for greater flexibility with managing network access
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) – Encrypts all HTTP traffic, allowing secure access to the browser-based management GUI in the switch
• IEEE 802.1X and RADIUS Network Logins – Controls port-based access for authentication and accountability
• Automatic VLAN Assignment – Assigns users automatically to the appropriate VLAN based on their identity, location and time of day
• STP BPDU Port Protection – Blocks Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) on ports that do not require BPDUs, preventing forged BPDU attacks
• STP Root Guard – Protects the root bridge from malicious attacks or configuration mistakes
• Automatic Denial-of-Service Protection – Monitors for malicious attacks and protects the network by blocking the attacks
• Management Password – Provides security so that only authorized access to the Web browser interface is allowed

Performance

• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) – Supports standard IEEE 802.1D STP, IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) for faster convergence, and IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP)
• BPDU Filtering – Drops BPDU packets when STP is enabled globally but disabled on a specific port
• Jumbo Frame Support – Supports up to 10 Kilobyte frame size to improve the performance of large data transfers

Layer 3 Services

• Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) – Determines the MAC address of another IP host in the same subnet; supports static ARPs; gratuitous ARP allows detection of duplicate IP addresses; proxy ARP allows normal ARP operation between subnets or when subnets are separated by a Layer 2 network
• DHCP Relay – Simplifies management of DHCP addresses in networks with multiple subnets

Layer 3 Routing

• New Static IPv4/IPv6 Routing – Provides basic routing (supporting up to 32 static routes and eight virtual VLAN interfaces); allows manual configuration of routing
