Overview
D-Link’s xStack 3200 Series switches are designed to provide effortless wireless technology convergence with traditional Layer 2 data access switching, emphasizing on security, performance, and resiliency. Featuring the latest stacking technology from D-Link, the xStack DXS-3227 can stack up to 16 units*, providing up to 400 Gigabit ports. It can stack with other D-Link switches such as the (DXS/DWS-3250, DXS/DWS-3227P), advocating extraordinary flexibility. It provides 24 built-in copper Gigabit ports, including four combo SFP ports for easy, flexible connection to fiber-based Gigabit media. The DXS-3227 is also equipped with 2 module slots that support 10 Gigabit Ethernet for both copper CX-4 and fiber XFP connections, as well as one fixed 10GbE XFP port for a total switching capacity of up to 108Gbps. In addition, the DXS-3227 also supports IP static routing, 4000 VLANs, up to 64 trunk groups, and is ‘wireless-ready’, making the DXS-3227 the most feature rich, high capacity switching solution in its class by far.
Unified Wired/Wireless Ready
In a mixed network of wired and wireless environments, predictable coverage and security become paramount. The need for a switching solution capable of addressing these needs in both the wired and wireless environment becomes key. The DXS-3227 is capable of meeting this demand and more. With a simple optional firmware upgrade, the DXS-3227 transforms from a standard Layer 2 switch into an integrated wired and wireless switching solution capable of providing powerful wireless security, easy deployment, the ability to detect rogue access points, and centralized management for all compatible WLAN components. Centralized management is crucial for wireless technologies deployed in real-time inventory, data mining, and an array of personal electronics that demands mobility and seamless integration such as PDA and 3G/VOIP mobile phones. With an optional software upgrade, the DXS-3227 provides secure, seamless roaming between access points, ensuring uninterrupted data and voice communication throughout your wireless network infrastructure.
DNA Stacking Architecture
Distributed Network Architecture (DNA) is a combination of hardware and software that is embedded in D-Link’s latest DXS-3200 series of xStack switches. Switches built with DNA are easily stackable with little or no system downtime for expansion. For example, the DXS-3200 Series switches are self-healing by quickly discovering failures in the stack and re-routing traffic to automatically avoid the failed device and discover the new topology. The flexibility of DNA lets network designers choose the right topology for connecting their devices whether it be through a 10GbE interface or using a 1000Base-X port to connect between wiring closets. The DXS-3200 series switches can be used in a number of topologies such as ring or chain stacking. When changes are made to the stack, DNA automatically discovers the new topology and reconfigures the system to accommodate the changes. In the unlikely event of equipment failure, the switches rapidly reconfigure the stack to avoid the failed switch, resulting in extremely fast failover times and little to no downtime. In addition, the DXS-3200 Series allows the network administrator to maintain transparency of system features such as Port Mirroring, VLANs, and link aggregation across the stack. Unlike other stacking solutions, this feature will allow an administrator to add and remove ports from VLANs without having to configure the VLAN on each switch and without the added hassle of creating VLAN trunks between devices. This also allows, through the use of port mirroring, the ability to monitor any port throughout the stack without having to be physically connected to the same device. This flexibility allows for better troubleshooting, faster configuration, and a lower risk of configuration errors.
Comprehensive Security
The DXS-3227 is equipped to handle many of today’s emerging security vulnerabilities previously delegated to only stand-alone firewalls. It incorporates built in ACLs for searching out and filtering such threats as: Denial of Service attacks, Trojan Horses, Worms, and more. Other access rules can also be set up to prevent network, and 802.1x authentication login. In addition, port-based security can also be set up to protect the integrity of the
