M6100: The Latest Advances in Hardware and Software Engineering for Higher Flexibility, Lower Complexity and Stronger Investment Protection, at a High-Value Price Point.
The NETGEAR Chassis M6100 series delivers L2/L3/L4 and IPv4/IPv6 rich services for enterprise edge and SMB core deployments, as well as 1G / 10G mixed infrastructures in server rooms. Innovative distributed fabric provides non-stop forwarding resiliency and world-class availability - including passive backplane, hitless failover, redundant fabric and redundant management - without having to pay the exorbitant acquisition and maintenance costs associated by other networking vendors in this class.
World-class availability
Dependable continuity of operations with non-stop switching, non-stop routing and hitless failover supported for both fabric and management
N+1 redundancy for power supplies and loop-free, disruption-free multi-chassis link aggregation (MLAG)
High speed performance
1.4 Tbps total routing / switching capacity and up to 1,071 Mpps intra-blade throughput
480 Gbps distributed fabric inter-module with each slot providing 2 x 40G access to the passive backplane (80G half-duplex; 160G full-duplex)
Extra high-density
Only 4U height (7 inches - 17.78cm) and 17.39 inches depth (44.16cm)
Supports 144 RJ45 10/100/1000 ports, or 120 SFP 100/1000 ports, or 72 RJ45 10GBASE-T ports, or 48 SFP+ 1000/10GBASE-X ports, or a combination
Higher flexibility
Distributed fabric removes the need for a dedicated supervisory module yet providing passive backplane, redundant fabric and redundant management
Any I/O blade spares hardware and software distributed fabric on board, facilitating campus management, maintenance and upgrades
Lower complexity
Entire feature set including datacenter (DCBX, PFC, ETS, FIP Snooping) and advanced IPv6 L3 routing (OSPF, PBR, BGP) is available without license
Innovative slot-1 supervisory and slot-2 backup supervisory design simplifies the entire chassis installation and ongoing maintenance tasks
Investment protection
Multi-role versatile platform engineered for cost-effective Gigabit edge, flexible Gigabit / 10 Gigabit distribution and scalable 10 Gigabit core applications
Any Gigabit copper blade can be upgraded with PoE+ 30W or UPOE 60W daughter card and downgraded later if the application has changed
Industry standard management
Industry standard command line interface (CLI), functional NETGEAR web interface (GUI), SNMP, sFlow and RSPAN
Single-pane-of-glass NMS300 management platform with centralized firmware updates and mass-configuration support
Features:
Key features
Proficient access layer in campus LAN networks, and competent distribution or core layer for midsize organizations networks
Advanced Layer 2, Layer 3 and Layer 4 feature set - no license required - including PBR, BGP, DCBX, PFC, ETS and FCoE FIP
1.4 Tbps switching and routing capacity, passive backplane, management and fabric nonstop forwarding redundancy
Up to 144 (Gigabit) ports, or 72 (10 Gigabit) ports, or a combination of both in dense form factor models
PoE+ (30 watts per port) and UPOE (60 watts per port) modular, flexible implementation
Ultra-low latency and scalable table size with 32K MAC, 8K ARP/NDP, 4K VLANs, 12K routes
PoE and UPOE
Any Gigabit copper blade can receive PoE+ or UPOE daughter cards for easy upgrade / downgrade and best investment protection
Up to 3, 000W PoE budget is provided by internal power supplies when 6, 000W are available with additional 1U power shelf
All set for rapid proliferation of PoE/PoE+ devices, such as IP telephony endpoints, 802.11n / 802.11ac access points and IP security cameras
Future-proof 60W UPOE power delivered to next-gen VDI clients or physical security devices; UPOE is backward compatible with PoE/PoE+
Software
Advanced classifier-based, time-based hardware implementation for L2 (MAC), L3 (IP) and L4 (UDP/TCP transport ports) security and prioritization
Voice VLAN with SIP, H323 and SCCP protocols detection and LLDP-MED IP phones automatic QoS and VLAN configuration
Efficient authentication tiering with successive DOT1X, MAB and Captive Portal methods for streamlined BYOD
Best-in-class IPv4/IPv6 static and dynamic routing including Proxy ARP, OSPF, BGP, Policy-based routing and automatic 6-to-4 tunneling
Enhanced IPv4/IPv6 multicast forwarding with IGMPv3/MLDv2 Querier and Control Packet Flooding protection
High performance IPv4/IPv6 multicast routing with PIM timer accuracy and unhandled PIM (S, G, rpt) state machine events transitioning
Advanced IPv4/IPv6 security implementation including malicious code detection, DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard protection and DoS attacks mitigation
