Technical specifications of the Adtran NetVanta 1234
This switch has class of Service (CoS) VoIP traffic prioritization, user-friendly web- Graphical User Interface (GUI) and a noticeable Command Line Interface (CLI). It comes with legacy
power and 802.3af over Ethernet, it is port-based and 802.1Q tagged Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) and supports 255 active VLANs as well as port mirroring. The NetVanta 1234 has TACACS+ and RADIUS authentication, storm control, broadcast, multicast and unicast and Wi-Fi access controller with layer 2 10/100Base-T managed Ethernet switching with 24-port auto-sensing. It has link aggregation and a non-blocking switching capacity of 18.8 Gbps. The cable diagnostics allows for detection of shorts and cable lengths. This switch has DiffServ to 802.1p mapping, DCHP support, firmware upgrades (TFTP/FTP), Robust security capabilities against intrusion, rapid spanning tree support, both 802.1D and 802.1w. It is standards-based for operability with two Combo RJ-45/SFP 1 Gbps ports and two 2.5 Gbps SFP enhanced ports and has a limited lifetime warranty.
The key features to the Netvanta 1234
This switch works well and has great features that are important for its operational functions. The key features that make this switch standard in is functions are such as
VLAN features
These include the trunking support of 802.1Q. The switch supports around 255 port based Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs). This feature allows the separation of broadcast domains by network managers. This in turn results in traffic control as well as efficient network performance.
Standards- based protocols
The NetVanta 1234 has the ADTRAN OS, which provides support for 802.3ad (link aggregation). They support port mirroring and switching port-based features that include
802.1w rapid spanning tree, 802.1D spanning tree and broadcast storm control. These ensure fast convergence of the network, topology changes recovery and link redundancy. The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) simplifies the integration of multi-vendor environments through the auto-discovery of other Ethernet devices.
Security features
Network protection is assured with this switch. It offers a range of features for data security, which are such as Secure Socket Layer (SSL), Secure Shell (SSH) and multilevel user passwords. These allow for Access Authentication and Authorization (AAA), as well as encryption of user login. Authentication of AAA is with RSA SecurID, RADIUS and TACACS+.
This switch supports QoS, which allows network managers to control network congestion as well as prioritize on critical VoIP traffic. It offers a DiffServ CoS (Class of Service) and 802.1p. It supports frame tagging and enforces traffic received from sources that are trusted. Weighted Round Robin (WRR) assigns traffic priorities through four egress queues.
Administration features
The AOS has an intuitive GUI and a CLI. For enterprises with centralized and wide management schemes, the AOS offers scalable software that handles configuration changes, firmware revisions, management of security policies, Access Control Lists (ACLs), restore and back up configurations as well as push firmware upgrades. It is also coupled with wireless access points (WAPs), access routers, IP phones and IP business gateways to provide telephony solutions.
Ethernet port support
The NetVanta 1234 supports 24 10/100Base-T ports for Ethernet. These have auto-duplexing, MDI-X/MDI sensing and auto-rate. In addition to this, it supports gigabit ports suitable for stacking capability and uplinks.
The Adtran NetVanta 1234 is a fast and reliable Ethernet switch.
