Key Benefits
Intelligent traffic prioritization for multiple services
Multiple priority queues and scheduling mechanism make the ZyXEL 2000 Series easy to perform
traffic prioritizing for delay-service applications, and you can also customize DSCP settings to
provide an end-to-end QoS environment. The MVR ensures efficient transmission of multicasting
stream on the network-wide multicast VLAN. For bandwidth management, the 2000 Series supports
bandwidth increments to give different bandwidth allocations. With broadcast storm control, the
network keeps the broadcast packets below the pre-defined threshold to prevent network outrages.
High-Security network edge
The ZyXEL 2000 Series features wide-range security functions to prevent unauthorized data access.
The 256 Static VLAN entry enables complicated VLANs portfolio for policy management, and the full-
range 4K VLAN (4K PVID) is equipped as well. In addition to 802.1x central access authentication, it
further assigns VLAN and bandwidth per pre-defined attribution for valid users to add flexibility to
network management. In addition, extra support of MAC filtering, MAC freezing and Specific MAC
forwarding allow network administrators to set security policies toward the device MAC addresses.
The 2000 Series has been designed to offer comprehensive security features for enforcing security
policies to the edge.
Excellent network management capability
The ZyXEL 2000 Series comes with rich management tools to streamline your management effort.
With ZyXEL’s exclusive iStacking™ technology, you can manage up to 24 ZyXEL switches through
one IP address. In addition, through Web-GUI, CLI (Command Line Interface) and text-based
configuration, network managers can select the one management interface they are most
comfortable with to get the job done efficiently. Moreover, you can protect your management
session with SSHv1/v2 authentication and SSL encryption features. With the comprehensive
features, ZyXEL’s 2000 Series is your first choice for cost-effective networking.
