The Brocade ICX 7750 also supports the 
IEEE 802.1AB LLDP standard, enabling 
organizations to build open, converged, 
and advanced multivendor networks. LLDP 
greatly simplifies and enhances network 
management, asset management, and 
network troubleshooting.

With the resulting insight, organizations 
can quickly and accurately review overall 
data center operations, identify hot spots, 
and quickly diagnose and troubleshoot 
issues before they develop into widespread 
problems. The Brocade ICX 7750 also 
provides accurate SNMP/RMON statistics 
to Brocade Network Advisor, reducing the 
administrative burden normally associated 
with proactive network management, 
design, and capacity planning.

PURPOSE-BUILT FEATURE SET  

The Brocade ICX 7750 combines a 
wide range of unique features to help 
organizations overcome the most 
challenging business requirements.

Industry-Leading Advanced Layer 2 

and Layer 3 Features 

To provide self-healing topologies in Layer 
2 configurations, the Brocade ICX 7750 
supports industry-standard Ethernet 
protocols, including multiple varieties of 
STP and link aggregation as well as optic-, 

link-, and switch-level fault detection and 
correction features. The advanced Layer 2 
and Layer 3 feature set is leveraged from 
Brocade FastIron switches that have been 
field-proven in enterprise and data center 
networks for more than a decade. With  
rich Layer 3 features enabled, organizations 
can utilize the Brocade ICX 7750 in  
multiple applications. 

Data Protection through  

Robust Security 

Security is a critical requirement in today’s 
data centers and branch offices, and the 
Brocade ICX 7750 provides robust security 
through a wide range of advanced features. 
Organizations can use both regular and 
extended Access Control Lists (ACLs) to 
control access to and through data  
center networks.

Organizations can use control policies 
that permit or deny traffic based on a wide 
variety of identification characteristics— 
such as source/destination MAC addresses, 
source/destination IP addresses,  
TCP/UDP ports/sockets, and well-known 
port numbers—further protecting and 
restricting network access. In addition,  
for maximum security the Brocade ICX  
7750 also leverages 802.1x security,  
MAC authentication, port MAC security,  
and MAC filter enhancements.

The Brocade ICX 7750 implements 
hardware-based ACL, so security does not 
adversely affect switching performance. In 
addition, the Brocade ICX 7750 provides 
hardware-based protection against 
Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) 
attacks (ICMP flood and TCP SYN) as well 
as hardware-based private VLAN attacks—
with no impact on CPU utilization. Also, 
BPDU Guard and Root Guard prevent rogue 
hijacking of the spanning tree root and 
maintain a contention-free—and loop-free—
environment, especially during dynamic 
network deployments.

Advanced QoS to Improve  

Data Traffic Integrity 

The Brocade ICX 7750 offers superior QoS 
features designed to ensure high-reliability 
services throughout the data center. It 
can identify, mark, classify, reclassify, and 
manage traffic based on specific criteria. 
This enables organizations to classify 
bandwidth-critical application traffic, 
discriminating among various traffic flows 
and enforcing bandwidth policies.

After the traffic is classified, organizations 
have complete control over the method 
the system uses to service the queues: 
Weighted Round Robin (WRR), Strict Priority 
(SP), or a mix of both. For granular control to 
regulate bandwidth utilization, the Brocade 
ICX 7750 can also perform ingress rate 
limiting and egress rate shaping.
