| Web-based authentication |
Web-based authentication provides network admission control through web browser to any host devices and operating systems |
| STP BPDU Guard |
A security mechanism to protect the networks from invalid configurations. A port enabled for Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) Guard is shut down if a BPDU message is received on that port. This avoids accidental topology loops |
| STP Root Guard |
This prevents edge devices not in the network administrator’s control from becoming Spanning Tree Protocol root nodes |
| STP loopback guard |
Provides additional protection against Layer 2 forwarding loops (STP loops) |
| DHCP snooping |
Filters out DHCP messages with unregistered IP addresses and/or from unexpected or untrusted interfaces. This prevents rogue devices from behaving as a DHCP server |
| IP Source Guard (IPSG) |
When IP Source Guard is enabled at a port, the switch filters out IP packets received from the port if the source IP addresses of the packets have not been statically configured or dynamically learned from DHCP snooping. This prevents IP address spoofing |
| Dynamic ARP Inspection (DAI) |
The switch discards ARP packets from a port if there are no static or dynamic IP/MAC bindings or if there is a discrepancy between the source or destination address in the ARP packet. This prevents man-in-the-middle attacks |
| IP/MAC/Port Binding (IPMB) |
The preceding features (DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, and Dynamic ARP Inspection) work together to prevent DoS attacks in the network, thereby increasing network availability |
| Secure Core Technology (SCT) |
Makes sure that the switch will receive and process management and protocol traffic no matter how much traffic is received |
| Secure Sensitive Data (SSD) |
A mechanism to manage sensitive data (such as passwords, keys, and so on) securely on the switch, populating this data to other devices, and secure autoconfig. Access to view the sensitive data as plaintext or encrypted is provided according to the user-configured access level and the access method of the user |
| Trustworthy systems |
