The NetVanta 1000 Series of managed Ethernet switches is designed for cost- effective Local Area Network (LAN) switching. This scalable, full-featured product line is suitable for networks requiring Layer 2 access switches for interconnecting LAN devices or network segmentation. Ideal for new installations or network upgrades, these switches are perfect for business-class applications requiring Fast Ethernet.

Hardware

The NetVanta 1224 and 1224ST rackmount switches support 24 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports with auto-rate, auto-duplexing, and MDI/MDI-X sensing. The NetVanta 1224ST also supports two 10/100/1000Base-T or Small Form-factor Pluggable (SFP) ports for copper or fiber high-speed uplink or stacking capability. The 1224ST can support up to 16 units stacked together and easily managed with a single IP address for the entire stack.

Standard-based Protocols

Based on the ADTRAN Operating System (AOS), these devices offer support for Link Aggregation (802.3ad), Port Mirroring, Port-based switching features including Broadcast Storm Control, Spanning Tree (802.1D) and Rapid Spanning Tree (802.1w) for faster network convergence, link redun- dancy, and recovery from topology changes. Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) auto-discovers neighboring Ethernet devices, simplifying integration into multi-vendor environments.

VLANs

All NetVanta switches support 802.1Q trunking and up to 255 port-based VLANs to allow network managers to separate broadcast domains for efficient network performance and traffic control. To help aid configuration in larger networks, Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) is also available.

Security

Rest assured, with the NetVanta 1224 and 1224ST your network is protected. These products also offer a variety of data security features including MAC-based port security, multilevel user passwords, Secure Shell (SSH) and Secure Socket Layer (SSL)

for encrypted user login, and Access Authentication and Authorization (AAA) for authentication with a RADIUS or RSA SecurID server.

Quality of Service (QoS)

NetVanta switches also support QoS to ensure network managers have the ability to prioritize mission critical traffic and control network congestion. The NetVanta 1000 Series offers 802.1p and DiffServ Class of Service (CoS). Each switch supports frame tagging, as well as enforcement of tagged traffic received from trusted sources. Four egress queues (per port) are available for assigning traffic priorities using Weighted Round Robin (WRR) or Strict Priority Queuing.

Administration

The AOS offers both a Command Line Interface (CLI) that mimics the widely deployed, industry de facto standard and an intuitive web-based GUI with step-by-step configuration wizards. For a centralized enterprise-wide management scheme, ADTRAN offers n-Command, an intuitive, scalable software suite for managing firmware revisions, push firmware upgrades and configuration changes, backup and restore configurations, and manage security policies and Access Control Lists (ACLs).

NetVanta 1000 Series of Ethernet switches are easily coupled with other ADTRAN internetworking products including NetVanta 1000 Series switch- routers, NetVanta 3000/4000/5000 Series Access Routers, and NetVanta 2000 Series VPN/Firewall appliances. All these solutions are backed by ADTRAN’s industry-leading support and services.
