Features This section describes the features of the Dell™ Networking™ X1000 and X4000 Series devices. For a complete list of all updated device features, see the Release Notes included in the latest version of software released at dell.com/support. This section provides a brief description of the following features: •...
Page 16 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm • UDLD • Static Routing • IPv6 Router • sFlow IP Version 6 (IPv6) Support The device functions as an IPv6-compliant host, as well as an IPv4 host (also known as dual stack). This enables device operation in a pure IPv6 network as well as in a combined IPv4/IPv6 network.
Page 17: Mac Address Capacity Support
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm The devices enhance auto-negotiation by providing port advertisement. Port advertisement enables the system administrator to configure the port speeds that are advertised. For more information, see Network Administration: Port Settings. MDI/MDIX Support Standard wiring for end stations is known as Media-Dependent Interface (MDI), and standard wiring for hubs and switches is known as Media- Dependent Interface with Crossover (MDIX).
Page 18: Layer 2 Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Automatic Aging for MAC Addresses MAC addresses from which no traffic is received for a given period, are aged out. This frees Bridging Table resources for learning new MAC addresses. For more information, see Address Tables.
Page 19: Vlan Supported Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm MLD Snooping Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) Snooping performs the function of IGMP Snooping for IPv6. For more information, see Snooping. Port and VLAN Mirroring Port and VLAN mirroring monitors network traffic by forwarding copies of incoming and outgoing packets from a monitored port to a monitoring port.
Page 20 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Full 802.1Q VLAN Tagging Compliance IEEE 802.1Q defines an architecture for virtual, bridged LANs, the services provided in VLANs, and the protocols and algorithms involved in the provision of these services. For more information, see VLAN Overview.
Page 21: Spanning Tree Protocol Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Private VLAN The Private VLAN feature provides Layer 2 isolation between ports that share the same Broadcast domain, or in other words, it creates a point-to- multipoint Broadcast domain. The ports can be located anywhere in the Layer 2 network.
Page 22 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Spanning Tree takes 30–60 seconds for each host to decide whether its ports are actively forwarding traffic. Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) detects uses of network topologies to enable faster convergence, without creating forwarding loops.
Page 23: Quality Of Service Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm For more information, see VLAN LAG Membership. Link Aggregation and LACP LACP uses peer exchanges across links to determine, on an ongoing basis, the aggregation capability of various links, and continuously provides the maximum level of aggregation capability achievable between a given pair of devices.
Page 24: Device Management Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Device Management Features SNMP Alarms and Trap Logs The system logs events with severity codes and timestamps.

Page 25 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Auto-Update of Configuration/Image File This feature facilitates installation of new devices. When you enable the various auto-update options, the device automatically downloads a new image or configuration file. It receives configuration parameters with its IP address from a DHCP server, after which the device automatically reboots, using the image or configuration file it received.
Page 26 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm • X1018/P • X1026/P For more information, see Network Administration: sFlow.

Page 27: Security Features
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm 802.1ab (LLDP-MED) The Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) enables network managers to troubleshoot, and enhances network management by discovering and maintaining network topologies over multi-vendor environments. LLDP allows a device to identify itself and advertise its capabilities and device information to its neighbors.
Page 28: Password Management
FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm Locked Port Support Locked Port increases network security by limiting access on a specific port to users with specific MAC addresses. These addresses are either manually defined or learned on that port. When a frame is received on a locked port, and the frame source MAC address is not tied to that port, the protection mechanism is invoked.
Page 29 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm The switch provides the ability to demand strong passwords, meaning that they must contain both upper and lower-case letters, numbers, and special characters. For more information, see Global Password Management. Access Control Lists (ACL) Access Control Lists (ACL) enable network managers to define classification rules and actions for specific ingress ports.
Page 30 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm ARP Inspection Dynamic ARP inspection is a security feature that validates ARP packets in a network. It intercepts, logs, and discards ARP packets with invalid IP-to-MAC address bindings. This capability protects the network from certain man-in- the-middle attacks.
Page 31 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Features.fm UDLD UDLD complements the Spanning Tree Protocol which is used to eliminate switching loops For more information, see UDLD. Static Routing Static routing enables the user to define a routing table manually. IPv4 routes are supported on X1008/P, X1018/P, X1026/P in L2+ mode only.

All connected devices must support UDLD for the protocol to successfully detect unidirectional links.
Page 177 FILE LOCATION: C:\Users\gina\Desktop\Checkout_new\Dell Astute\User Guide\Dell_Astute_Network_Admin_PortSettings.fm UDLD is enabled on a port when one of the following occurs: • The port is a fiber port and UDLD is enabled globally. • The port is a copper port and you specifically enable UDLD on it.

When the port is brought up, the UDLD state is changed to detection.
Page 179 Usage Guidelines Dell does not recommend enabling UDLD on ports that are connected to devices on which UDLD is not supported or disabled. Sending UDLD packets on a port connected to a device that does not support UDLD simply causes more traffic on the port without providing benefits.
