3Com 3CRBSG2093 - Baseline Plus Switch 2920 User Manual

IMC management platform. IMC is our next
g
eneration fully integrated comprehensive
management platform. It delivers full FCAPS solution
as defined by ISO, among other features. IMC
management software can be used to map the
network topology, indicating what devices are
connected, and on what ports. Switch management
and software upgrades can be easily done. Other
S
NMP-based management tools may also be used.
The Switch family also supports a compact Command
Line Interface (CLI) that is accessed via the front panel
console port. Using the CLI, major switch management
options can be quickly configured.

KEY BENEFITS (continued)
FEATURE HIGHLIGHTS
FEATURE DESCRIPTION
Performance
VLANs Segment the network by grouping users based on their data or traffic exchange
requirements. This ensures optimal use of available bandwidth as traffic flow is directed
according to the needs of the business.
Advanced QoS and traffic shaping Traffic prioritization, using IEEE 802.1p Quality of Service (QoS) and Type of Service (TOS)
with Differentiated Services Code Point (DSCP), and ingress/egress rate shaping help
ensure that critical time-sensitive traffic like voice gets the priority needed for quality
communications.
Link aggregation (trunking) Group together any number of ports automatically using Link Aggregation Control
Protocol (LACP), or manually, to form an ultra-high-bandwidth connection to the network
backbone; help prevent traffic bottlenecks.
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol Improves network compatibility, scalability and availability.
(STP/RSTP/MSTP) support
IGMP snooping Multicast filtering optimizes network performance, instead of flooding traffic to all ports.
Unique voice features Automatic assignment of voice traffic to separate VLANs (“auto-voice VLAN”), advanced
voice QoS, traffic shaping, multicast filtering and PoE support delivers the support
necessary for quality voice communications.
Fiber uplink Achieve greater distance connectivity using gigabit fiber uplinks.
PoE support (PWR model only) Provides power for IP phones, wireless LAN access points, and other IEEE 802.3af-
compliant devices over the same cable used for data; lowers total cost of ownership since
there is no need to run additional electrical wiring.
Security
IEEE 802.1X network access control Provides standards-based security combined with local authentication.
Advanced Access Control Lists (ACLs) MAC- and IP-based ACLs enable network traffic filtering and enhance network control.
Time based ACLs allow for greater flexibiliy with managing network access.
Traffic monitoring (port mirroring) Administrators can examine suspect data streams received on any port by mirroring the
data stream to a monitoring port.
Configuration and management
Enhanced browser-based interface Graphical user interface allows even the most novice users to configure the switch during
initial setup and monitor it during normal operation.
SNMP support Switch can be managed with 3Com IMC, Network Supervisor, Network Director and other
SNMP-compatible tools.
PoE configuration (PWR model only) PoE power can be enabled or disabled per unit and per port; power can also be limited
per port.
Cable diagnostics Remotely detect copper cable issues using a browser-based tool.
