General Security Measures Segregates traffic for clients attached to common data ports;
and prevents unauthorized access by configuring valid static
or dynamic addresses, web authentication, MAC address
authentication, filtering DHCP requests and replies, and
discarding invalid ARP responses
311
Access Control List Provides filtering for IPv4 frames (based on address, protocol,
TCP/UDP port number or TCP control code), IPv6 frames
(based on address, DSCP traffic class, or next header), or non-
IP frames (based on MAC address or Ethernet type)
395
Interface Configures the connection parameters for all Ethernet ports,
aggregated links, and VLANs
423
Link Aggregation Statically groups multiple ports into a single logical trunk;
configures Link Aggregation Control Protocol for port trunks
453
Power over Ethernet
*
Configures power output for connected devices 467
Mirror Port Mirrors data to another port for analysis without affecting the
data passing through or the performance of the monitored
port
473
Congestion C ontrol Sets the input/output rate limits, traffic storm thresholds, and
thresholds for broadcast and multicast storms which can be
used to trigger configured rate limits or to shut down a port
483
Loopback Detection Detects general loopback conditions caused by hardware
problems or faulty protocol settings
501
UniDirectional Link
Detection
Detect and disables unidirectional links 507
Address Table Configures the address table for filtering specified addresses,
displays current entries, clears the table, or sets the aging time
515
Spanning Tree Configures Spanning Tree settings for the switch 523
ERPS Configures Ethernet Ring Protection Switching for increased
availability of Ethernet rings commonly used in service
provider networks
553
VLANs Configures VLAN settings, and defines port membership for
VLAN groups; also enables or configures private VLANs,
protocol VLANs, voice VLANs, and QinQ tunneling
585
Class of Service Sets port priority for untagged frames, selects strict priority or
weighted round robin, relative weight for each priority queue,
also sets priority for DSCP
631
Quality of Service Configures Differentiated Services 645
Multicast Filtering Configures IGMP multicast filtering, query, profile, and proxy
parameters; specifies ports attached to a multicast router; also
configures multicast VLAN registration, and IPv6 MLD
snooping
665
Link Layer Discovery
Protocol
Configures LLDP settings to enable information discovery
about neighbor devices
793
Connectivity Fault
Management
Configures connectivity monitoring using continuity check
messages, fault verification through loopback messages, and
fault isolation by examining end-to-end connections
between Provider Edge devices or between Customer Edge
devices
