VLAN

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network

 

to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Devices on a

 

logical network belong to one group. A device can belong to

 

more than one group. With VLAN, a device cannot directly talk

 

to or hear from devices that are not in the same group(s); the

 

traffic must first go through a router.

 

 

MAC Address Filter

Filter traffic based on the source and/or destination MAC

 

address and VLAN group (ID).

 

 

DHCP (Dynamic Host

Use this feature to have the Switch forward DHCP requests to

Configuration Protocol)

DHCP servers on your network.

Relay /DHCPv6 Relay

 

 

 

IGMP Snooping/ MLD

The Switch supports IGMP snooping and MLD snooping-proxy,

Snooping-proxy

enabling group multicast traffic to be only forwarded to ports

 

that are members of that group; thus allowing you to

 

significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your

 

Switch.
