AX3600S

1. Stable High Functionality Routing

• Load balancing by multipath routing
  • Uses OSPF and BGP for site-to-site connection utilizing wide-area Ethernet services and IP-VPN services, allowing for load balance with high-reliability routing and multipath connections.
  • Routing software equivalent to that of the AX7800R series backbone routers
• Support of IPv6 and Multicast
  • Hardware-based IPv6 routing similar to IPv4 routing
  • Supports protocols such as Static, RIPng, OSPFv3, BGP4+, and Multicast, allowing for a variety of IPv6 networks.

2. High Reliability and High Availability

• High reliability features
  • Improves line and route reliability with link aggregation, STPs, Graceful Restarts (helpers), VRRP, as well as ALAXALA proprietary functions, such as GSRP (Gigabit Switch Redundancy Protocol), VRRP Polling, Static Polling, Uplink Redundant, L2 loop detection, and EtherOAM.
  • Prevents loops by UDLD and Loop Guard, and broadcast storm by Storm Control.
  • Hot-swappable built-in redundant power supply
• Ring protocol
  • Supports ring topologies that realize redundant configurations, as well as multi-ring topologies that enable flexible network configuration.

3. 10G Uplink

• 10G uplink
  • Provides a high performance 10G network in combination with the AX6000S family on a local network.

4. Communication Quality Assurance

• QoS function
  • Delivers clear voice by prioritizing VoIP packets over other packets in a voice/data integrated network, with various kinds of shapers (such as PQ, WRR, and WFQ).

5. Advanced Security

• Authentication/quarantine solutions
  • Supports both IEEE 802.1X and Web authentication. By using these functions with MAC VLAN, it becomes possible to authenticate each terminal even in an environment where network configuration is dynamically changed according to the number of accommodated users. Also, by allowing entry of each authenticated terminal into a user-specified VLAN, it becomes possible to build a robust secure VLAN.
  • In combination with authentication/quarantine servers, possible to provide a quarantine solution in which only PCs that have passed quarantine checks are connected to a business VLAN automatically.

6. Compact Design with Low Power Consumption

• Compact
  • All models are 1U-sized.
• Low power consumption
  • Power-saving architecture, parts selection and circuit design
• Dynamic power-saving functionality that reduces unnecessary power consumption
  • Unused-Port Power Saving that reduces power consumed by unused ports

7. Operability

• Simplified maintenance
  • Simplifies and reduces the time for maintenance with command-free maintenance to easily back up configurations and collect information on faults.
• Maintenance only through the front panel
  • Power-saving architecture, parts selection and circuit design
