Networking 2 It is time to modernize network access Our customers want reliable alternatives to a one vendor network with smart integration capabilities that avoid a rip- and-replace strategy. “I need interoperability and painless deployment in my current network.” What you said Our customers want to grow with the best networking equipment available to support new applications but it must avoid unnecessary complexity when integrating into an existing network environment. “I need to expand the network but I also need to use what I already have. That seems really hard to do.” “My networks are strained due to additional devices, richer media, and more applications.” Our customers want to enable users and their devices to perform optimally and to do that they need greater performance and higher availability in their network. “We are struggling to manage and control our growing networks.” Our customers need a virtualized network and central control based on underlying traffic patterns that work across networking devices.

Unite various networking products with the latest open standard protocols for more network choice. Leverage familiar tools and practices One common CLI and GUI using a well-known command language gets skilled network administrators productive quickly. Maintain consistent configurations by running one OS release across all products in the series. Rapidly deploy mirrored configurations to numerous devices by simply inserting in a USB key. Deploy with confidence at any scale Creates assurance with high throughput and capacity to handle unexpected traffic loads. Scales easily with built-in stacking ports and advancements to improve resiliency on up to 12 units. Offers certainty with a lifetime warranty that covers software upgrades, hardware repair or replacement, optics, and cables.

Networking Dell Networking OS 6 Common Firmware, CLI, and GUI across N-Series products Built for the skilled network administrator It’s about doing things the way skilled network administrators do things. It’s about them getting the results they expect. It’s about consistency and familiarity to help increase productivity. Dell Networking OS 6 is used across all N-Series products with the same software, same commands, and same user interface – an interface network administrators will recognize and feel comfortable using without additional training. Key features and innovations Multi-chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG) creates active/active loop-free redundancy without implementing expensive spanning tree protocols. Interface seamlessly with Rapid Per-VLAN Spanning Tree (RPVST+) for greater flexibility and interoperability with Cisco networks. (Available with OS 6.1 release) Authentication Tiering allows admins to tier port authentication methods, such as 802.1x, MAC Authentication Bypass, and Captive Portal in priority order so that a single port can provide flexible access and security. Policy Based Routing (PBR) allows you to forward packets based on assigned criteria beyond destination address. Policy Based Forwarding (PBF) is available on Layer 2 devices. Remote Switch Port Analyzer (RSPAN) allows you to monitor ports across a Layer 2 domain without purchasing costly dedicated network taps. DHCP Snooping ensures IP integrity on a Layer 2 switched domain to harden the security of the LAN. OpenFlow 1.0 provides first-look SDN capabilities in environments outside the data center. Beta release. And hundreds more including the latest open-standard protocols. 5
