transmit and receive signals to support
straight through and crossover cabling

Lucent OmniVista for network wide
management
• Supports RFC 2819 RMON group (1-Statistics,
2-History, 3-Alarm & 9-Events)
• Network Time Protocol (NTP) for network
wide time synchronization
• Alcatel-Lucent Mapping Adjacency Protocol (AMAP)
for building topology maps within OmniVista
• 802.1AB – Link Layer Discovery Protocol with MED
extentions
• Port based mirroring for troubleshooting and
lawful interception, supports four sessions
with multiple sources-to-one destination
configuration
• Policy based mirroring – Allows selection of
the type of traffic to mirror by using QoS
policies
• Remote port mirroring
• Port monitoring feature that allows capture of
Ethernet packets to a file, or for on-screen
display to assist in troubleshooting
• sFlow v5 support to monitor and effectively
control and manage the network usage
• Local (on the flash) and remote logging (Syslog)
• GVRP for 802.1Q-compliant VLAN pruning and
dynamic VLAN creation
• Auto QoS for switch management traffic as
well as traffic from Alcatel-Lucent IP phones
• UDLD for detecting one way connections
HIGH AVAILABILITY
• Ring Rapid Spanning Tree optimized for ring
topology to provide less than 100ms
convergence time
• 802.1w rapid recovery spanning tree allows
subsecond failover to redundant link
• Alcatel-Lucent per-VLAN spanning tree (1x1)
• 802.1D spanning tree for loop free topology
and link redundancy
• 802.1s multiple spanning tree
• Fast forwarding mode on user ports to bypass
30-second delay for spanning tree
• Static and 802.3ad dynamic link aggregation
that supports automatic configuration of link
aggregates with other switches
• Broadcast storm control
• Redundant 1:1 power provided by the
OS6850-BPS
• BPDU blocking – automatically shuts down
switch ports being used as user ports if a
spanning tree BPDU packet is seen. Prevents
unauthorized spanning-tree enabled attached
bridges from operating.
• Priority queues: eight hardware-based queues
per port
CONVERGENCE/ TRIPLE PLAY
• Traffic prioritization: Flow-based QoS with internal
and external (a.k.a., remarking) prioritization
• Bandwidth management: flow based bandwidth
management, ingress policing/egress shaping
and port based egress shaping
• Queue management: Random Early
Detect/Discard (RED), configurable de-queuing
algorithm; Strict Priority, Weighted and Deficit
Round Robin.
• Power-over-Ethernet: IEEE 802.3af – maximum
total power of 380W for PoE
ADVANCED SECURITY
• 802.1X multi-client, multi-VLAN support for
perclient authentication and VLAN assignment
• IEEE 802.1X with group mobility
• IEEE 802.1X with MAC based authentication,
group mobility or “guest” VLAN support
• MAC-based authentication for non-802.1X host
• Authenticated VLAN that challenges users
with username and password and supports
dynamic VLAN access based on user
• Captive Portal – A new Access Guardian Policy
that uses embedded web portal for user
authentication.*
• PKI authentication for SSH access
• Support for host integrity check and
remediation VLAN
• Support for Alcatel-Lucent Quarantine
Manager and quarantine VLAN
• Learned Port Security (LPS) or MAC address
lockdown allows only known devices to have
network access preventing unauthorized
network device access
• RADIUS and LDAP admin authentication
prevents unauthorized switch management
• TACACS+ client allows for authentication
authorization and accounting with a remote
TACACS+ server
• Secure Shell (SSH), Secure Socket Layer (SSL)
for HTTPS access and SNMPv3 for encrypted
remote management communication
• Access control lists to filter out unwanted
traffic including denial of service attacks; Flow
based filtering in hardware (L1-L4)
• Support of Microsoft Network Access
Protection (NAP)**
• Switch protocol security
• MD5 for RIPv2, OSPFv2 and SNMPv3
