Product features

• VCStack
  Create a VCStack of up to four units with 40 Gbps of stacking bandwidth to each unit. VCStack provides a highly available system where network resources are spread out across stacked units, reducing the impact if one of the units fails. Aggregating switch ports on different units across the stack provides excellent network resiliency.
• Long-distance stacking
  Long-distance stacking allows a VCStack to be created over longer distances, perfect for a distributed network environment.
• Ethernet Protection Switching Rings (EPSRing)
  EPSRing and 10 Gigabit Ethernet allow several x510 switches to form a high-speed protected ring capable of recovery within as little as 50 ms. This feature is perfect for high performance and high availability in enterprise networks.
• Industry-leading Quality of Service (QoS)
  Comprehensive low-latency wire-speed QoS provides flow-based traffic management with full classification, prioritization, traffic shaping and min/max bandwidth profiles. Enjoy boosted network performance and guaranteed delivery of business-critical Ethernet services and applications. Time-critical services such as voice and video take precedence over non-essential services such as file downloads, maintaining responsiveness of Enterprise applications.
• Loop protection
  Thrash limiting, also known as rapid MAC movement detects and resolves network loops. It is highly user-configurable - from the rate of looping traffic to the type of action the switch should take when it detects a loop.
• Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
  With PoE, a separate power connection to media endpoints such as IP phones and wireless access points is not necessary. PoE+ reducies costs and provides even greater flexibility, providing the capability to connect devices requiring more power - for example, tilt and zoom security cameras.
• Voice VLAN
  Voice VLAN automatically separates voice and data traffic into two different VLANs. This automatic separation places delay-sensitive traffic into a voice dedicated VLAN, which simplifies QoS configurations.
• Open Shortest Path First (OSPFv3)
  OSPF is a scalable and adaptive routing protocol for IP networks. The addition of OSPFv3 adds support for IPv6 and further strengthens the Allied Telesis focus on next generation networking.
• sFlow
  sFlow is an industry standard technology for monitoring high speed switched networks. It provides complete visibility into network use, enabling performance optimization, usage accounting/billing, and defense against security threats. Sampled packets sent to a collector ensure it always has a real-time view of network traffic.
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) snooping
  DHCP servers allocate IP addresses to clients, and the switch keeps a record of addresses issued on each port. IP Source Guard checks against this DHCP snooping database to ensure only clients with specific IP and/or MAC address can access the network. DHCP snooping can be combined with other features, like Dynamic ARP Inspection, to increase security in layer 2 switched environments, and also provides a traceable history, which meets the growing legal requirements placed on Service Providers.
• Network Access Control (NAC)
  NAC allows for unprecedented control over user access to the network, in order to mitigate threats to network infrastructure. Allied Telesis x510 switches use 802.1x port-based authentication in partnership with standards-compliant dynamic VLAN assignment, to assess a user's adherence to network security policies and either grant access or offer remediation. " If multiple users share a port, then multi-authentication can be used. Different users on the same port can be assigned into different VLANs, and so given different levels of network access. Additionally, a Guest VLAN can be configured to provide a catch-all for users who aren't authenticated.
• Tri-authentication
  Authentication options on the x510 series also include alternatives to 802.1x port-based authentication, such as web authentication to enable guest access and MAC authentication for end points that do not have an 802.1x supplicant. All three authentication methods - 802.1x, MAC-based and Web-based - can be enabled simultaneously on the same port. This is called tri-authentication.
