compliant 802.1x clients. 802.1x is also
known as Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP).
SNMPv3 provides user authentication
and data encryption for higher security.
It also offers secure configuration and
monitoring.
IP Manager List limits access to the
management features of the Ethernet
Routing Switch 3510 by a defined list
of IP addresses or IP address ranges/
subnets, providing greater network
security and manageability.
MAC address-based security allows
authentication of all access, not only to
the switches for management and configu-
rations, but also access to the infrastruc-
ture through these switches. This software
feature limits access to only network-
authorized and trusted personnel,
including full tracking of network
connections. With this feature, network
access is granted or denied via proper
MAC-address identification (up to a
maximum of 448). In addition, with the
Distributed Access List Security feature,
network access is granted or denied on a
per-port basis. Ethernet Routing Switch
3510 also provides RADIUS authentica-
tion for switch security management.
MAC addresses
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510 supports
up to 8,000 MAC addresses. For deploy-
ment of large-scale, enterprise networks
with many attached devices and work-
groups, this permits scalability to be
achieved in a cost-effective manner.
VLAN support
VLANs can be established for each switch
to extend the broadcast domain and
segment network traffic. These VLANs
can be spread among port-based or
protocol-based VLANs. The VLANs
can be on a standalone switch. Protocol-
based VLANs allow switch ports to be
assigned to a broadcast domain based
on the protocol information within the
packet. These VLANs localize broadcast
traffic and assure that the specified
protocol type packets are sent only to
the protocol-based VLAN ports. The
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510 supports
256 VLANs. Ethernet Routing Switch
3510 also supports per VLAN Tagging
option on each port.
IGMP snooping
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510 features
IP Multicast support by examining
(‘snooping’) all Internet Group Multicast
Protocol (IGMP) traffic in hardware at
line rate, and pruning unwanted data
streams from affecting network or end-
station performance. Up to 256 IGMP
groups are supported.
Multiple Spanning Tree protocol groups
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510 supports
multiple Spanning Tree Groups (STGs)
in a single standalone switch. STGs
provide multiple data paths which can
be used for load-balancing and redun-
dancy. The Ethernet Routing Switch
3510 supports eight STGs. The switch
architecture will support IEEE 802.1s
and 802.1w
.
Industry-standard Command Line
Interface (CLI)
The CLI is used to automate general
management and configuration of
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510. The
CLI is used through a Telnet session or
through the serial port on the console.
ASCII configuration files
Ethernet Routing Switch 3510 can
download a user-editable ASCII config-
uration file from a TFTP (Trivial File
Transfer Protocol) server. The ASCII
configuration file can be loaded auto-
matically at boot time or on-demand
using the management systems (console
menus or CLI). Once downloaded, the
configuration file automatically config-
ures the switch according to the
NNCLI commands in the file. This
feature provides administrators with the
flexibility of creating command configu-
ration files that can be used on several
switches with minor modifications.
The configuration settings of the switch
can be displayed or saved to an external
ASCII configuration file made up of a
series of CLI commands. This editable
ASCII configuration file can then be
uploaded to a switch from an external
file server. The ASCII configuration 
file contains configuration settings for
the following network management
applications:
> Core applications (system information,
topology, etc.)
> Internet Protocol
> Multi-Link Trunking (MLT)
> Port configuration
> Partial Spanning Tree configuration,
including configuration of port
priority and path cost
> VLAN configuration
> Quality of Service (QoS)
> RMON
Custom Auto-Negotiation
Advertisements (CANA)
This feature enables the network
manager to tune the capabilities that a
particular Ethernet port can advertise
via auto-negotiation. The capabilities
include half-duplex and full-duplex
modes with speeds of 10, 100 and 1000
Mbps. Auto-negotiated Ethernet ports
establish a connection based upon the
highest common capabilities. This
feature saves the network manager from
having to go to each workstation and
switch to configure a “fixed” speed. 
Customizable queue/buffer allocation 
Using this feature, the network adminis-
trator is able to specify the number of
CoS queues supported and the buffering
resources that may be consumed by a
given port. It allows the network adminis-
trator to tune the use of system resources
based upon their business needs.
