Multicast VLAN Registration

(MVR)

Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) is designed for applications (such as

Media-on-Demand (MoD)) using multicast traffic across a network. MVR

allows one single multicast VLAN to be shared among different

subscriber VLANs on the network.
This improves bandwidth utilization by reducing multicast traffic in the

subscriber VLANs and simplifies multicast group management.

RIP

RIP (Routing Information Protocol) allows a routing device to exchange

routing information with other routers.

RSTP (Rapid Spanning

Tree Protocol) / MRSTP

(Multiple RSTP)

RSTP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links

between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a switch to interact with

other RSTP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one

path exists between any two stations on the network. MRSTP allows you

to configure multiple RSTP configurations and assign ports to each tree.

Link Aggregation

Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one

logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it

is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-

speed, but more costly, single-port link.

Port Authentication and

Security

For security, the Switch allows authentication using IEEE 802.1x with an

external RADIUS server and port security that allows only packets with

dynamically learned MAC addresses and/or configured static MAC

addresses to pass through a port on the Switch. For redundancy,

multiple RADIUS servers can be configured.

Device Management

Use the web configurator to easily configure the rich range of features on

the Switch.

Firmware Upgrade

Download new firmware (when available) from the ZyXEL web site and

use the web configurator, CLI or an FTP/TFTP tool to put it on the

Switch.

Note: Only upload firmware for your specific model!

Configuration Backup &

Restoration

Make a copy of the Switch’s configuration and put it back on the Switch

later if you decide you want to revert back to an earl

er configuration.

Cluster Management

Cluster management (also known as iStacking) allows you to manage

switches through one switch, called the cluster manager. The switches

must be directly connected and be in the same VLAN group so as to be

able to communicate with one another.
