Firmware features
Networking
MAC/IP filtering.
RIPv2 / OSPFv2 /static routing.
Tunneling (Ethernet‑over‑IP, IP‑over‑IP).
L2/L3 Firewall.
NAT (multipool, H.323‑aware).
DHCP client/server/relay.
Stacked VLAN support (Q-in-Q) avoids the limitation in the number of available VLANs (4096), which can be useful for large networks. In addition, Q-in-Q allows you to organize L2 channels within a limited VLAN list, which is widely used in provider networks and on leased communication channels.
Quality of Service
17 priority queues.
IEEE 802.1p support.
IP TOS / DiffServ support.
Full voice support.
Traffic limiting (absolute, relative, mixed).
Traffic redirection.
Security
Network storm protection.
Full-featured network filter.
Secure HTTPS connection.
Managemen.
Telnet/SSH protocols.
Web interface.
