accomplished with a broad variety of management tools like the Dell
OpenManage Network Manager.
• Advanced security capabilities
With MAC-based port security, multi-layer Access Control Lists
(ACL), SSL/SSH management traffic encryption, management
authentication (including RADIUS) and SNMP access filtering, the
PowerConnect 6024/6024F switches deliver advanced user-
customizable network security capabilities.
• Enhanced availability
Integrated dual hot-swappable power supplies and cooling fans
improve system uptime and minimize the potential for an inoperable
switch. The dual hot-swappable power supplies can also help save on
infrastructure costs during deployment by providing the integrated
function of an external redundant power supply. The PowerConnect
6024 and 6024F switches also support Virtual Redundant Routing
Protocol (VRRP) to enhance availability at the router level.
• Ideal solution for customers with growing and consolidated
datacenters
The PowerConnect 6024 and 6024F switches provide a high-
performance, wire-speed Gigabit Ethernet routing solution. The 1U
form-factor allows customers to grow their datacenters while
minimizing the amount of rack space required (additionally, no
external redundant power supply is necessary.) When the customer
network has to cover extended distances, the PowerConnect 6024F can
aggregate fiber-based Gigabit Ethernet connections (via SFP modules)
into the datacenter.
