Technology that Preserves Your Investment Alpine 3800 Chassis Switch Features
High Availability
Alpine 3800 series chassis support hot swappable I/O modules and fan trays along with fully redundant, hot swappable power supplies that ensure high availability. Alpine 3800 switches are NEBS Level 3 compliant and meets the highest level of quality demanded by network service providers around the world. Ethernet Automatic Protection Switching (EAPS) allows the IP network to provide the level of resiliency and uptime that users expect from their traditional voice networks. EAPS is superior to Spanning Tree or Rapid Spanning Tree Protocols, offering subsecond (less than 50 milliseconds) recovery and delivers consistent failover regardless of number of VLANs, number of network nodes or network topology. In most situations, digital video feeds dont freeze or pixelize because EAPS allows the network to recover almost transparently from link failure. Alpine 3800 series supports Spanning Tree, VLAN Spanning Tree (802.1D), and Rapid Spanning Tree (802.1w) protocols for Layer 2 resiliency. Software enhanced availability allows users to remain connected to the network even if part of the network infrastructure is down. Alpine 3800 series switches constantly check for problems in the uplink connections using advanced Layer 3 protocols such as OSPF, VRRP and ESRP (ESRP supported in Layer 2 or Layer 3), and dynamically routes around the problem. Equal Cost Multipath (ECMP) allows uplinks to be load balanced for performance and cost savings while also supporting redundant failover. If an uplink fails, traffic is automatically routed to the remaining uplinks and connectivity is maintained. Link aggregation allows trunking of up to eight links on a single logical connection, to provide a single trunk of redundant bandwidth per logical connection.

Extensive Traffic Management Capabilities

Extreme Networks revolutionary rate shaping capabilities provide Layer 3 IP/ Ethernet networks that deliver a fixed latency, guaranteed transit path for voice or video traffic equal to that achievable with ATM but at a fraction of the cost and complexity. This makes the implementation of VoIP or VOD or other delay sensitive traffic feasible, without requiring bandwidth over-provisioning. IETF DiffServ combined with Policy-Based QoS allows classes of services to be defined and enforced end-to-end across the network. Extreme Networks capability to classify packets using Layer 1 through Layer 4 attributes regardless of whether traffic is being switched or routed, combined with the ability to also honor priorities assigned before the traffic entered their network as well as re-write the signaling attributes (i.e. DiffServ), gives service providers unique control of application and service quality. These advanced capabilities provide high bandwidth management and congestion control. Providing powerful network visibility, sFlow is a sampling technology that provides the ability to continuously monitor application level traffic flows on all interfaces simultaneously. The sFlow agent is a software process that runs on Alpine 3800 series switches, and packages data into sFlow datagrams that are sent over the network to an sFlow Collector that has an up-to-the-minute view of traffic across the network. sFlow can be used to troubleshoot network problems, control congestion and to detect network security threats.

device for trend analysis or be utilized by a network administrator as a diagnostic tool when fending off a network attack. ACLs are one of the most powerful tools to control network resource utilization and to secure and protect the network. Alpine 3800 series supports ACLs based on Layer 2, 3 or 4-header information such as the MAC address or IP source/destination address. The use of protocols like SSH2, SCP and SNMPv3 supported by an Alpine 3800 series switch prevents the interception of management communications and man-inthe middle attacks. When a hub or Wireless Access Point (WAP) is attached to a switch running 802.1x, only the first user on the hub or WAP is authenticated; any subsequent users connected to the hub or WAP are allowed to pass unchallenged. Multiple supplicant (client) support on Alpine 3800 allows multiple clients to be individually authenticated on the same port. The IPDA SUBNET lookup feature reduces exposure to malicious users or virus infected end clients and accelerates packet forwarding. Alpine 3800 series switches handle DoS attacks gracefully. If the switch detects an unusually large number of packets in the CPU input queue, it will assemble ACLs that automatically stop these packets from reaching the CPU. After a period of time, the ACLs are removed. If the attack continues, they are reinstalled.

Ease of Management
Extreme Networks has developed tools that save you time and resources in managing your network. EPICenter provides all fault configuration, accounting, performance, and security functions to manage Extreme Networks multilayer switching equipment in a converged network. EPICenter Policy Manager provides layer independent policy enforcement for Layers 1 4. Extreme Networks software application, ServiceWatch, delivers powerful, Layers 4 7 monitoring and management for mission-critical network services.

Comprehensive Security Features

VMANs allow service providers to securely preserve the integrity of their customers data while mixing and matching traffic from multiple sources over the same shared backbone. Providing intrusion detection and prevention, Alpine 3800 series switches support linerate port mirroring. This can be used to mirror traffic to an external network appliance such as an intrusion detection
