Management & Configuration
|

|
Multiple firmware versions can be saved on the unit. This allows the customer to change between older and newer firmware versions whithout the need to download.
|
Multiple configuration files can be stored on the unit., This allows the customer to eaisly switch between older and newer configurations during testing or production deployments.
|
Automatic check for software updates available over FTP, HTTP, HTTPS, SCP, SFTP, and TFTP
|
LLDP-Link Layer Discovery Protocol, as per IEEE 802.1AB, is a neighbor discovery protocol that is used for network devices to advertise information about themselves to other devices on the network. This protocol runs over the data-link layer, which allows two systems running different network layer protocols to learn about each other via TLVs (Type-Length-Value).
|
RESTful API uses HTTP requests to access and use IOLAN SCR statistics and configuration data. Any of the CLI commands can be executed through a RESTFul API script that cn be controlled externally from a server.
|
Connectivity Watchdog can instruct the IOLAN SCR to take different acctions (i.e. reboot) if the network connectivity to a pre-define IP address is lost. This is helpful for situations when the IOLAN SCR is deployed on remote locations hard to service if the network connectivity is lost.
|
Automatic DNS Update: Utilize DHCP Opt 81 to set IOLAN domain name for easy name management and with Dynamic DNS support , users on the Internet can access the device server by name without having to know its IP address. See Automatic DNS update support for details
|

|
Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol (VRRPv3) enables a group of devices to form a single virtual device to provide network redundancy
|

|
Routing Protocols
|
The IOLAN SCR can be configured for any of the major routing protocols for an easy integration within the data center Ethernet backbone: RIP/RIPNg, OSPFv3, BGP-4, NAT, IPv4/IPv6, Static Routing, IPv6 Encapsulations (GRE, 6in4), Port Routing
|
IPv6 to IPv4 translation is fully supported for environments where the Ethernet data backbone is run on IPv6 and the port management is run on IPv4
|
Using NAT for enhanced security, the IOLAN SCR can map a single IP address, across all or several of it?s Ethernet ports.
