ALPHA BRIDGE- LAYER 3 Switches (AS300/38/XF)
Product Overview
AS300/38/XF Series is a new generation of aggregation 10G switches introduced by Alpha Bridge Technologies Private Limited. It is targeted at the IP MAN (metropolitan area network), campus networks and enterprise networks. It is developed based on high-performance hardware and ABOS software platform with ABTPL’s own independent intellectual property rights.
It supports multiple services like IPv6, and network security based on L2/L3/L4 wire-speed switching service. It also supports non-stop upgrade, continuous forwarding, graceful restarting, and redundancy protection.
Innovative Virtual Cluster used in Switching Technique
AVSS makes full use of each link in the physical devices, which avoids STP blocking the link and protects the original link to the maximum extent.
Virtualize multiple physical devices into one. The performance, reliability and management of the virtual system are superior to the physical ones.
Based on the advanced distribution mechanism and efficient cross-physical link aggregation function, the logical control plane, service control plane and service data plane are separated. Thus, the device can support continuous layer-3 routing forwarding, avoiding service interruption because of a single point of failure.
AVSS realizes single IP management, greatly improving the networking efficiency and lowering the operating cost.
Product Characteristics
Varied Service Characteristics
Supports layer-2 and layer-3 multicast routing protocol, which enable the device to access IPTV, HD video surveillance and HD video conference. Supports layer-3 routing protocol and super-large routing table capacity, which enables the device is deployable in large campus networks, enterprise networks and industry networks.
Flexible & Convenient Management and Maintenance
- Supports management modes such as the console port, Telnet, SSH, etc.
- Supports WEB management mode, which is easy and efficient so that it makes installation and debugging convenient.
- Supports TFTP-patterned file upload/download management.
- Supports ISSU (In-Service Software Upgrade).
- Supports SNMP and ABTPL NMS smart network management platform to realize automatic equipment discovery, network, topology management, equipment configuration management, performance data statistics and analysis and trouble management.
Complete Security Mechanism
Equipment-Level Security: The advanced hardware infrastructure design realizes the level-based packet schedule and packet protection, prevents DoS-/TCP related SYN Flood, UDP Flood, Broadcast Storm or large traffic attacks and supports level-based command line protection, endowing different levels of users with different management permissions. Security Authentication Mechanism: IEEE 802.1x, Radius and Tacacs + Enhanced Service Security Mechanism: supports the plaintext or MD5 authentication of relevant routing protocol, URPF, deep inspection of hardware packet, control packet and data packet and filtering technology.
Industrial Ethernet Ring with “0” Delay/Packet Loss
Supports industry-level EAPS and ERPS with protection recovery time less than 50ms. Their high reliability is represented by the null packet loss, which has been proved by multiple test scenarios.
Versatile IPv6 Solutions
- Supports the IPv6 protocol suite, IPv6 neighbour discovery, ICMPv6, path MTU discovery etc.
- Supports Ping, Traceroute, Telnet, SSH, ACL. Supports MLD, MLD Snooping, IPv6 static routing, RIPng, OSPFv3 and BGP4+ etc. Supports IPv6 tunnel, manual tunnel, automatic tunnel, GRE tunnel, 6to4, ISATAP. Supports IPv4 transits to IPv6, IPv6 manual tunnel, automatic tunnel, 6 to 4 tunnel, ISATAP tunnel.
Carrier-Level QoS Policies
- Alpha Bridge AS300X series supports priority retagging and complicated flow classification based on VLAN, MAC, source address, destination address, IP or priority, eventually streamlining carrier’s services in a better way.
- Alpha Bridge series provides flexible bandwidth control policies, supporting port/flow-based Low limit, ensuring the line speed forwarding of each port. Supports 8 priority queues by each port.
- AS300X Series supports multiple queue schedule algorithms such as SP, WRR and “SP + WRR”.
