Features
Shared Uplink Sets using Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) allows the
creation of Ethernet channeling with upstream switches that conform to IEEE
802.3ad. Ports can alternatively be configured for failover only.
External ports within a Port Set can be on the same VC Ethernet module or on
multiple VC modules within the VC domain.
In the event of an uplink failure to a data center switch, the next highest
performance uplink connection or aggregation will become active.
Fast MAC Cache failover enables rapid recovery of network connections when
a standby module becomes active.
Smart Link network senses a failed upstream switch connection and allows
teamed NICs to properly failover.
Configure uplink speeds to Auto, 1Gb,or10Gb on the associated uplinks
VLAN Features
802.1Q VLAN supported on uplinks.
Uplink ports can be configured for VLAN tagging at egress or pass-thru of
tagged VLAN packets from Server ports.
