HIGHEST AVAILABILITY FOR THE ENTERPRISE
The OmniSwitch 9000s carry on Alcatel-Lucent’s tradition of providing the highest availability possible to support the

,
fans and PSUs)
■ Hot swappable modules and sub-components (NIs,
CMMs
1
, fan trays, PSUs, SFPs and XFPs)
■ Hitless loading of optional software (routing / security),
without re-booting
■ Image rollback to automatically re-load previous
configurations and software versions for “easier”
remote site management
■ Full power-over-Ethernet support for IP
phones, WLAN access points and video
cameras with up to 2400W of power
through dedicated power shelves
■ Isolation of intruders with OmniVista 2770
Quarantine Manager

features such as user authentication,
learned port security (LPS), group
mobility, and port mapping
