Description

 

 

 

 

CR00009347

GUI

2

It was not possible to use the GUI to add untagged ports to the default

 

 

 

VLAN.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

 

 

 

 

CR00010874

IP Gateway

2

Previously, the switch discarded multicast OSPF packets that it received on

 

OSPF

 

unnumbered PPP interfaces. This prevented OSPF from working across

 

 

 

unnumbered PPP interfaces.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

 

 

 

 

CR00013466

Switch

2

Previously, if a JDSU XFP was used in the AT-SB4541 10G line card, the

 

 

 

switch rebooted when executing the command show switch port.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

 

 

 

Also, the XFP LED on the 10G line card used to flash amber when many

 

 

 

types of XFPs were installed without a link.

 

 

 

This issue has also been resolved. When an XFP is installed, enabled, and

 

 

 

without a link, the XFP LED is now solid green.

 

 

 

 

CR00013678

GUI

2

It was not always possible to save the switch configuration by using the

 

File System

 

Save button on the GUI. Sometimes the GUI reported the following error

 

 

 

instead of saving the configuration:

 

 

 

"Save failed: SYSR busy, try create config file when transfer complete"

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

 

 

 

 

CR00013823

Switch

2

In very rare circumstances, a port could stop transmitting traffic if its speed

 

 

 

was modified or it was reset while under heavy traffic load.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved.

 

 

 

 

CR00013862

IP Gateway

2

If a network loop lasted for a day or longer, the switch ran out of memory

 

 

 

and rebooted.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. The switch now conserves memory in these

 

 

 

extreme circumstances.

 

 

 

 

CR00014124

Switch

2

When the master switch controller was in slot B and a slave controller was

 

 

 

in slot A, the Layer 2 multicast table for AT-SB4541 10G line cards could

 

 

 

become incorrect. This caused loss of connectivity.

 

 

 

This issue has been resolved. The Layer 2 multicast table now reflects the

 

 

 

correct configuration when the master controller is in slot A or slot B.

Allied Telesis 4000 Series Features in sb275a05, Software Version sb275a05, Module Level Description, Gui, IP Gateway

4000 Series specifications

The Allied Telesis 4000 Series is designed to meet the growing demands for reliable and scalable networking solutions in enterprise environments. This series offers a range of stackable, Layer 2 and Layer 3 Ethernet switches, combining advanced features with robust performance to ensure seamless connectivity and superior network management.

One of the standout features of the Allied Telesis 4000 Series is its versatile stacking capability. The switches can be stacked together, enabling them to function as a single unit. This simplifies network management and provides enhanced redundancy, allowing for easy scaling without disrupting operations. The stacking technology supports high-speed interconnections, ensuring that data transfer between switches remains efficient and reliable.

The 4000 Series is equipped with advanced Layer 2 and Layer 3 switching functionalities. This dual-layer capability allows for both basic data linking and more complex routing operations, providing a flexible solution for organizations with diverse networking needs. With support for VLAN segmentation, organizations can optimize their bandwidth usage and enhance security by isolating network traffic.

Security is a crucial aspect of the Allied Telesis 4000 Series. Features such as IEEE 802.1X port-based access control, dynamic VLAN assignment, and advanced access control lists (ACLs) ensure that unauthorized access is prevented. The switches also support secure management protocols, providing peace of mind for network administrators who need to maintain compliance with industry regulations.

The Allied Telesis 4000 Series integrates Power over Ethernet (PoE) technology, enabling the switches to supply power to connected devices, such as IP cameras and VoIP phones, directly through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies, simplifying installation and reducing clutter, particularly in environments where space is at a premium.

For performance, the 4000 Series boasts high throughput and low latency, making it suitable for bandwidth-intensive applications. The switches come equipped with advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features, allowing network administrators to prioritize critical traffic and ensure that applications perform optimally, even during peak usage times.

In conclusion, the Allied Telesis 4000 Series offers a comprehensive solution for organizations seeking reliable, secure, and scalable networking equipment. With its advanced stacking capabilities, dual-layer functionality, robust security features, and PoE support, this series is well-suited for modern enterprise networking demands. Whether for a small office or a larger data center, the Allied Telesis 4000 Series delivers the performance and flexibility required in today’s dynamic networking environments.
