Product Features
Intelligent stacking technology
The S3230 series switch is equipped with Maipu VST stacking function. VST (Virtual Switching Technology) stacking combines multiple switches to form a logical virtual switch via the 10G SFP+ ports, improving device and link reliability, network expansion, and simplifying configuration and management.
Software Defined Network
The S3230 series switch is capable of being managed by Maipu’s BD-Campus controller, an integrated SDN platform designed for campus networks. The utilization of software-defined network technologies in this platform simplifies the deployment, management, and security of campus networks, while also enabling network teams to complete the majority of their work directly on the BD-Campus controller platform. When compared with traditional methods, implementing a BD-Campus solution can significantly reduce network deployment times, simplify network maintenance, improve troubleshooting efficiency, and ultimately lead to overall cost savings for customers.
Zero Touch Provisioning
The S3230 series switch features advanced Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP) capabilities, streamlining the deployment process for network administrators. With ZTP, the switch can automatically discover and load necessary version files from a file server via a DHCP server or a USB flash disk, eliminating the need for manual intervention during initial setup. This automation reduces configuration errors, accelerates the deployment process, and enhances overall network efficiency, making the S3230 series switch an ideal choice for scalable and dynamic network environments.
High availability
The S3230 series switch offers advanced redundancy and reliability features, catering to diverse networking requirements. In addition to supporting traditional spanning tree protocols such as STP, RSTP, and MSTP, the switch also complies with the ITU-T G.8032 international standard. This Ethernet Ring Protection Switching (ERPS) protocol enables rapid 50ms failover within Ethernet ring network topologies, ensuring seamless connectivity and minimal downtime.
Perfect security policy
The S3230 series switch offers a comprehensive suite of security features, including user authentication, port security, ACLs, loopback detection, and 802.1X authentication. It also incorporates IP Source Guard, DHCP/ND Snooping, Host Guard, Dynamic ARP Inspection, and PPPoE+ security mechanisms. These robust security functions ensure user access and network protection.
Additionally, the switch supports MAC+IP+VLAN binding, 802.1X authentication, and countermeasures against network storm, DOS/DDOS, ARP, and protocol packet attacks. This makes the S3230 series ideal for large-scale, multi-service, and complex-traffic networks.
Advanced QoS
The S3230 series switch offers sophisticated QoS capabilities for optimal network performance. Supporting eight queues per port and advanced scheduling algorithms such as SP, RR, WRR, and WDRR, the switch effectively manages traffic prioritization and resource allocation.
The switch accommodates diverse priority mapping techniques, including 802.1p, CoS, and DSCP, enabling fine-grained control over traffic classification and prioritization. With granular port traffic rate limiting and time-based controls, network administrators can regulate bandwidth usage as needed.
To optimize network performance and minimize congestion, the S3230 series switch employs advanced congestion management techniques, such as Tail Drop and RED packet loss algorithms. These mechanisms help maintain seamless network operation while ensuring efficient delivery of critical data.
Rich Network Management
The S3230 series switch offers a comprehensive set of management options. These options encompass network management protocols like SNMP and TR-069, configuration and control options like Netconf/Yang and CLI, monitoring and diagnostic tools such as RMON and SYSLOG. These versatile features enable network administrators to effectively manage, monitor, and maintain optimal network performance both locally and via the cloud.
Free Licensing Policy
Maipu consistently adheres to a «One-time investment» free license policy, ensuring that standard and advanced features are not differentiated across versions. This approach guarantees that customers receive new firmware updates without incurring additional charges. In comparison to other manufacturers, Maipu’s free license policy safeguards both short-term and long-term user investments, providing an unparalleled value proposition.
