OverviewThese switches combine the configurability of a matrix switcher with the power and scalability of Ethernet to support hundreds of AV over IP endpoints. M4300 and M4500 switches include NETGEAR IGMP Plus™ to simplify system architectures at a lower cost and are pre-configured for out-of-the-box use.
Key Features- Pre-configured for out-of-the-box use
- NETGEAR IGMP Plus™ enables instant multicast functionality for most AV over IP installations
- Cost-effective 100G aggregation and 10G access layer for AV deployments and redundant spine & leaf topologies
- Optimized for spine-and-leaf redundant AV installations, with or without MLAG between spine switches
- High capacity for AV over IP streams — up to 320 TX / 320 RX (10 Gigabit) nodes line-rate in a redundant spine-and-leaf architecture
- IGMP Plus default on VLAN 1 and configurable on other VLANs for automatic IGMP across switches
- Two modular power supply units (APS750W) and six redundant fan trays (AFT402) pre-installed for 1+1 power and 4+2 fan redundancy
Software & Advanced Functions- Advanced IPv4/IPv6 security including malicious code detection, DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard, and Control Plane Policing (CoPP)
- Selectable Port-Channel / LAG (802.3ad - 802.1AX) L2/L3/L4 hashing for fault tolerance and load sharing
- Up to 64 Link Aggregation Groups (LAG/Port-Channel/LACP) with 32 ports per LAG and Multi-chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG)
- IPv4/IPv6 static and dynamic routing: IP Multinetting/CIDR, PBR, VRRPv2, OSPFv3, PIM-SM6, BGP4, VRF-Lite
- Hardware classifier-based time-aware implementation for L2 (MAC), L3 (IP) and L4 (UDP/TCP) security and QoS prioritization
- High-performance IPv4/IPv6 multicast routing with PIM-SM/PIM-SM6
- Link dependency controls to enable/disable ports based on other links' state
- Non-disruptive configuration updates for applying new config files without interrupting unchanged features
- Industry-standard management: SNMP, RMON, sFlow, LLDP, RSPAN and CLI
- Service port for out-of-band 1G Ethernet management (OOB) with CLI; RS232 straight-through RJ45 for local console
Operational & Management Highlights- CLI-only local console; telnet port 1223 and SSH port 1234 (management via standard CLI)
- Out-of-band 1G Ethernet management port (OOB, RJ45)
- Integration with single-pane-of-glass NMS300 for centralized management
- Extensive telemetry and monitoring: SNMP, RMON, sFlow, LLDP, RSPAN
Built-in Resilience and Reliability- Two redundant modular power supplies (APS750W) pre-installed for 1+1 power redundancy
- Six hot-swappable fan trays (AFT402) pre-installed for 4+2 fan redundancy
- Designed for high availability: nonstop forwarding failover and support for redundant spine & leaf architectures
