Features of layer-3 Gigabit Switch ports

The 1-gigabit layer-3 switch is quite common, so I have studied the 1-gigabit layer-3 Switch with high port flexibility. Here I will share it with you and hope it will be useful to you. After the success of the Gigabit center switch gmt7324, NETGEAR recently launched a more advanced layer-3 gmt7312 switch with more flexible port configurations.

GSM7312 provides advanced features such as GSM7324's rich layer-2 switching, layer-3 routing, and QoS of service quality management. It has the same software features as GSM7324. At the same time, it can customize port configurations according to the specific needs of users so that this product has more advantages in enterprise core network applications.

As a high-performance, full-featured, and cost-effective Gigabit three-tier switch, the outstanding product features of the GSM7312 have become a powerful capital to enter the market. GSM7312 provides 12 10/100/M Gigabit RJ-45 ports and 12 miniGBIC (SFP) slots to provide Gigabit fiber connections (each 1000Base-T is shared with the corresponding MiniGBIC port ). Users can configure flexible product configurations according to their specific requirements. All 10/100/M copper ports support port self-adaptation, self-negotiation, and MDI/MDIX self-adaptation. SFP module supports hot dial. Similar to GSM7324, all ports of GSM7312 support traffic control IEEE 802.3x, with 24 Gbps backboard bandwidth (packet forwarding rate of 17.8Mpps) and a rich set of software features.

The layer-2 switch specification of the GSM 7312 Gigabit layer-3 switch supports a 16 k mac address table and a complete Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1D-1998, IEEE 802.1 w, and IEEE 802.1 s ), the link aggregation protocol is IEEE 802.3ad and supports 228 port-based, 802.1Q, and protocol-based VLAN and GVRP. In addition, you can use Port monitoring (Port monitoring), IEEE 802.1x Port-based security access control standards, broadcast storm control, and other product features to ensure the reliability and security of your enterprise network.

The layer-3 switching specification of GSM7312 supports IP routing at the wire speed, and supports Static Routing, default routing, RIP v1, RIP v2, and OSPF v2 of the complete routing protocol) it also supports ICMP, VRRP, and ARP. GSM7312 can be used as a BOOTP and DHCP client to manage the network through WEB, SNMP v1/v2c/v3, RMON, Telnet or Console, and other methods using the automatically obtained IP address. In addition, GSM7312 provides attractive modules such as password protection, switch configuration file upload and download, TFTP software upgrade, and complete system log files.

The quality of service of the network is a matter of great concern to users. GSM7312 supports the complete DiffServ QoS and the full IEEE 802.1p protocol and Access Control List) IGMP Snooping v1 and v2, which can set the bandwidth per port and configure eight queues for each port, the network transmission quality based on the 737312 Gigabit layer-3 switch is guaranteed to be smooth.

It is foreseeable that this layer-3 GSM 7312 gigabit switch, which will be launched by leading network equipment and service providers in the United States, has accumulated many years of product experience, A satisfactory solution is provided to support the network platform of small and medium-sized enterprises. The excellent technical features and simple user interface have once again been reflected on the GSM7312 switch and become a proud advantage of the US network. The GSM7312 switch, together with the well-known GSM7324 switch, is listed as the twin star of the US network, laying a solid foundation for enterprises to build an efficient and secure core network.
