• MPLS forwarding and VPN services

• Advanced Fast Filter Processor (FFP) ContentAwareTM

classification

• Advanced security features in hardware

• Hardware based IP multicast routing/forwarding and

replication

• Port-trunking and mirroring supported across stack

• Advanced packet flow control:

• Head-of-Line blocking prevention

• Back pressure support

• Eight QoS queues per port with hierarchical minimum/

maximum shaping per Class of Service (CoS) per queue

per port

• Highly scalable BroadScaleTM architecture evolved from five

generations of switching experience provides rich features,

scalability, and future proof solutions.

• Optimized for secure-switching and convergence of applications

and services in the networks.

• Complete IPv6 enabled Layer 2 and Layer 3 switch-on-a-chip

solution for easy and rapid development of multilayer switching

applications.
