Abundant L2 Features

T2500G-10TS supports a complete lineup of L2 features, including 802.1Q VLAN, QinQ, Port Mirroring, STP/RSTP/MSTP, Link Aggregation Control Protocol, and 802.3x Flow Control function. In addition, the switch provides advanced features for network maintenance, including LoopBack Detection and Cable Diagnostics. IGMP Snooping ensures intelligent forwarding of the multicast stream to only the appropriate subscribers, while IGMP throttling & filtering restricts each subscriber on a port level to prevent unauthorized multicast access.

Secure Networking

The T2500G-10TS provides IP-MAC-Port Binding, Port Security, Storm control, and DHCP Snooping which protect against broadcast storms, ARP attacks, etc. It integrates some typical DoS attacks to select. You can protect against these attacks more easily ever than before. In addition, the Access Control Lists (ACL, L2 to L4) feature restricts access to sensitive network resources by denying packets based on source and destination MAC address, IP address, TCP/UDP ports, and even VLAN ID. Moreover, the switch supports 802.1X authentication, which is used in conjunction with a RADIUS server to require some authentication information before access to the network is allowed. Guest VLAN function supports to enable the non-802.1X clients to access the specific network resource.

Advanced QoS Features

To integrate voice, data, and video service on one network, T2500G-10TS supports rich QoS policies. Administrators can designate the priority of the traffic based on a variety of means including Port Priority, 802.1p Priority, and DSCP Priority, to ensure that voice and video are always clear, smooth, and jitter-free. In conjunction with the Voice VLAN the switch supports, the voice applications will operate with much smoother performance. 

Enterprise Level Management Features

T2500G-10TS is easy to use and manage. It supports various user-friendly standard management features, such as intuitive web-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) or industry-standard Command Line Interface (CLI), either administration traffic can be protected through SSL or SSH encryptions. SNMP (v1/v2c/v3) and RMON support enable the switch to be polled for valuable status information and send traps on abnormal events. And it also supports Dual Image, which provides reduced down-time for the switches, when the image is being upgraded/downgraded.
