access points and other devices; reduces implementation and
maintenance costs.
Unifies management and administration with a common operating
system and centralized control available via 3Com Enterprise
Management Suite.
Granular QoS and traffic management for enhanced availability and
performance of critical business applications.
Extensive L2/3/4 switching and routing capability, including advanced
features
*
like IS-IS, BGP-4, MBGP, MPLS, and VPLS, applicable in very
large enterprises.
Specialized application modules for enhanced security, network
analysis and Layer 2 Ethernet VPN enable the flexibility to integrate
major capabilities as the network evolves.
