ADTRAN 1238 PoE Switch User Manual


 
The NetVanta
®
1000 Series of managed,
Layer 2, Ethernet switches is designed for
fast, secure, cost-effective LAN switching.
These scalable, full-featured business-class
switches are perfect for VoIP applications by
using robust Quality of Service (QoS) features
and Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities to
power IP Phones, protecting the organization
with advanced security capabilities, and ease
of management with an easy to use Web-GUI
and familiar Command Line Interface (CLI).
Hardware
The NetVanta 1234 and 1238 rackmount
switches support 24 and 48 10/100Base-T
Ethernet ports with auto-rate, auto-duplexing,
and MDI/MDI-X sensing. The NetVanta 1234/
1238 also supports four Gigabit ports for
uplink or stacking capability.
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 redundancy, 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.
PoE
The NetVanta 1234 PoE and 1238 PoE plat-
forms provide standards-based 802.3af and
Legacy PoE functionality for powering IP
phones, Wireless Access Points (WAPs), or
other devices requiring LAN power.
Security
Rest assured, with the NetVanta 1234 and
1238 PoE your network is protected. These
products also offer a variety of data security
features including 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, RSA
SecurID and TACACS+.
Quality of Service (QoS)
NetVanta switches also support QoS to
ensure network managers have the ability to
prioritize mission critical traffic like VoIP 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).
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 firm-
ware 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
products including access routers, Wireless
Access Points, IP Business Gateways, IP
phones, and VoIP telephony solutions. All
these solutions are backed by ADTRAN’s
industry-leading support, services, and
industry-leading warranty.
