2.1 System Features
Main features of hiD 6615 S223/S323, having Fast Ethernet switch and Layer 3 switching
function which supports both Ethernet switching and IP routing, are follow.
Routing functionalities such as RIP, OSPF, BGP and PIM-SM are only available for hiD
6615 S323. (Unavailable for hiD 6615 S223)
VLAN
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is made by dividing one network into several logical
networks. Packet can not be transmitted and received between different VLANs. There-
fore it can prevent unnecessary packets accumulating and strengthen security. The hiD
6615 S223/S323 recognizes 802.1q tagged frame and supports maximum 4096 VLANs
and Port based, Protocol based, MAC based VLANs.
Quality of Service (QoS)
For the hiD 6615 S223/S323, QoS-based forwarding sorts traffic into a number of classes
and marks the packets accordingly. Thus, different quality of service is providing to each
class, which the packets belong to. The QoS capabilities enable network managers to
protect mission-critical applications and support differentiated level of bandwidth for man-
aging traffic congestion. The hiD 6615 S223/S323 support ingress and egress (shaping)
rate limiting, and different scheduling type such as SP (Strict Priority), WRR (Weighted
Round Robin) and WFQ (Weighted Fair Queuing).
Multicasting
Because broadcasting in a LAN is restricted if possible, multicasting could be used in-
stead of broadcasting by forwarding multicast packets only to the member hosts who
joined multicast group. The hiD 6615 S223/S323 provides IGMP V2, IGMP snooping and
PIM-SM for host membership management and multicast routing.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is to manage Network Elements using
TCP/IP protocol. The hiD 6615 S223/S323 supports SNMP version 1, 2, 3 and Remote
Monitoring (RMON). Network operator can use MIB also to monitor and manage the hiD
6615 S223/S323.
IP Routing
The hiD 6615 S323 is Layer 3 switch, which has routing table and IP address as router.
Therefore, it supports static routing, RIP v1/v2, OSPF v2 and BGP v4 for unicast routing.
