PLANET Layer 3 Managed Switches
PLANET Layer 3 Managed Switches
PLANET Layer 3 Managed Switch managed function with comprehensive protocols and applications to facilitate the rapid service deployment and management for both the traditional L2 and L3 networks. With support for advanced features, including RIP, OSPF, BGP, PIM-DM/SM, etc., this switch is ideal for the traditional or fully virtualized data center.
Administrator conveniently boost network efficiency by configuring Layer 3 static routing manually, the RIP (Routing Information Protocol) or OSPF (Open Shortest Path First) settings automatically. The RIP can employ the hop count as a routing metric and prevent routing loops by implementing a limit on the number of hops allowed in a path from the source to a destination. The OSPF is an interior dynamic routing protocol for autonomous system based on link-state. The protocol creates a link-state database by exchanging link-states among Layer 3 switches, and then uses the Shortest Path First algorithm to generate a route table based on that database.
PLANET Layer 3 Managed Switches provide a wide range of products, from 10/100Mbps to Gigabit, from 8 ports to 48 ports, PoE or non-PoE, with Uplink Copper RJ45 or Fiber/SFP for SME's networking and FTTx of ISP/CSP and other applications. All the RJ45 copper interfaces of PLANET Switches support 10/100/1000/2500/10000Mbps auto-negotiation for optimal speed detection through RJ45 Category 6, 5 or 5e cable. It also supports standard auto-MDI/MDI-X that can detect the type of connection to any Ethernet device without requiring special straight-through or crossover cables.
