Security
•
Protected ports: provides increased security by
allowing specified ports to be isolated from all other
ports on the switch; the protected port or ports can
only communicate with the uplinks or shared
resources
•
Multiple user authentication methods:
– IEEE 802.1X: industry-standard method of user
authentication using an IEEE 802.1X supplicant on
the client in conjunction with a RADIUS server
– Web-based authentication: similar to IEEE
802.1X, it provides a browser-based environment
to authenticate clients that do not support the IEEE
802.1X supplicant
– MAC-based authentication: client is
authenticated with the RADIUS server based on
the client's MAC address
•
Guest VLAN: Isolates guest and unauthorized
users traffic to a separate VLAN
•
Port security: allows access only to specified
MAC addresses, which can be learned or specified
by the administrator
•
MAC address lockout: prevents particular
configured MAC addresses from connecting to the
network
•
Multiple IEEE 802.1X users per port: provides
authentication of up to two IEEE 802.1X users per
port; prevents user "piggybacking" on another
user's IEEE 802.1X authentication
•
STP BPDU port protection: blocks Bridge
Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) on ports that do not
require BPDUs, preventing forged BPDU attacks
•
Secure management access: all access
methods--CLI, GUI, or MIB--are securely encrypted
through SSHv2, SSL, and/or SNMPv3
•
TACACS+: eases switch management security
administration by using a password authentication
server
Convergence
•
IP multicast snooping: automatically prevents
flooding of IP multicast traffic
Quality of Service (QoS)
•
IEEE 802.1p prioritization: delivers data to
devices based on the priority and type of traffic
Flexibility
•
Fanless design: reduces noise and distractions
when deployed in open spaces (2510-24 switch
only)
•
NEW Multiple port density and connectivity
speed options: provide choice and flexibility with
a consistent user experience
