Foundry Networks will unveil the FastIron WS Series of one rack unit fixed form factor Layer 2/3 switches. They will be available as 24- and 48-port 10/100 or 10/100/1000 Mbps models, with or without IEEE 802.3af PoE, for enterprise edge networking, security, and unified communication needs. The WS series extends Foundry's networking portfolio to encompass a focused, intelligent solution for SMBs, branch offices and distributed enterprises.
The FastIron WS Series provides an industry-leading feature set in an entry-level compact 1RU Layer 2/3 switch to allow network flexibility and manageability through 24- and 48-port PoE availability, Layer 3 routing support (OSPF, RIP), and unique security capabilities. The WS Series' security features include sFlow, unprecedented in this market area, to allow traffic visibility, network protection and manageability at the network edge. Flow traffic analysis is available to any administrator using Foundry's IronView Network Manager (INM) or any network management that supports this network monitoring standard. For users employing INM, Foundry's IronShield 360-degree full-circle security solution and extensive and advanced traffic policy features are available to ensure the smooth operation and security of the entire network.
