Unit 1 Summary

• The Accelar routing switch has evolved the concept of Ethernet routing from general-purpose processors and software-based systems to specialized, custom ASIC hardware that provides dramatic increases in bandwidth, throughput, and features

• The Accelar routing switch excels as a core layer 2/3/4 switch as well as a core IP/IPX router in many enterprise networking environments where high throughput, versatility, security, and robust redundancy is critical

• The Accelar 1000 series of routing switches has robust redundancy features, as well as excellent throughput, extensive VLAN support, and a variety of models

• The Accelar 8600 series of routing switches has unparalleled redundancy features, outstanding throughput, extensive VLAN support, extensive DiffServ and QoS support, and extremely high port density

ES AV0025515A 1/35

In this unit, you learned how to do the following:

Unit 1 Summary

• The Accelar 1000 series of routing switches support various features that are dependent upon the revision of hardware and software implemented in a particular configuration

• The Accelar routing switch is extremely versatile, and can be configured through software to provide any combination of switched VLANs, routed VLANS, and routed ports

• The Accelar routing switch supports a variety of chassis models, with a variety of I/O modules available that support 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX UTP, 100BASE-FX fiber, and all variations of Gigabit Ethernet

• The Accelar routing switch can be managed in many different ways: through console CLI; through Telnet CLI; through SNMP-based GUI tools, and through familiar web browsers both in- and out-of-band
