Dell 6024 Switch User Manual


 
Page 13 January 2004
With the Virtual Redundant Routing Protocol (VRRP), the PowerConnect
6024 switches will synchronize their routing tables with one another to
ensure fail-over support in the event of a switch or link failure.
Additionally, the PowerConnect 6024 can be configured with up to seven
trunk groups (with a maximum) of seven ports in a trunk group to provide
high performance link aggregation.
Both a Web-based GUI and a Command Line Interface are available to
manage the device. The PowerConnect 6024 can also be managed
remotely via common SNMP management tools and supports switch
access password protection. SNMP access filtering is used to provide
secure access to the device along with SSH/SSL encryption of the
management traffic. Dell OpenManage IT Assistant provides a single
console to manage your servers, workstations and network switches. If a
more advanced network management tool is required, Dell’s OpenManage
Network Manager allows you to easily administer your managed
PowerConnect switches in a one-to-many fashion.
Application benefits include:
- High availability
- High-performance connectivity to server workgroups
- Scalability
- Security
- Remote management capabilities
