Enhancements in Release F.04.08
Enhancement
Summary
Page
Friendly Port Names
Enables you to assign optional, meaningful names to physical ports on the 
switch. 
Security Enhancements
SSH Security
Provide remote access to management functions on the switches via encrypted 
paths between the switch and management station clients capable of SSHv1 
operation.
RADIUS
Protect access to the switch and monitor use of network resources through a 
centralized client authentication and accounting service.
Port-Based Access
Control (802.1X)
Release F.04.08 provides 802.1X port-access control for users requesting 
access from multiple points within the network, including application of user 
profiles configured on a central RADIUS server. Release F.05.17 updates this 
feature to include Open VLAN mode, which changes how the port responds 
when it detects a new client. For this reason you will find the documentation for 
the Port-Access (802.1X) with Open VLAN mode under "Enhancements in 
Release F.05.17" instead of in this section. 
IP Preserve
Enable retention of the current IP address and subnet mask (for the switch’s 
default VLAN), and the default gateway address when downloading a configu-
ration file and rebooting the switch. (Operates on switches that use the Manual 
IP addressing instead of the default DHCP method.)
QoS Priority
Enable assignment of non-default priority settings to inbound, untagged packets 
received on the switch.
Isolated Port Groups
Provides an alternative to VLANs in situations where VLANs cannot be used. 
Release F.05.17 updates this feature to include two new groups.  For this reason 
you will find the documentation for Isolated Port Groups under "Enhancements 
in Release F.05.17" instead of in this section.
Terminating Remote Sessions
Provides a "kill" command to terminate remote Telnet and SSH sessions.
Rapid Spanning-Tree (802.1W)
(RSTP)
Provides  the functionality for the new Spanning Tree standard, IEEE 802.1w 
(RSTP), which is supported by the G.04.04 (or greater) release of your switch 
software
