The Alteon Web Switching Module (WSM) integrates into the Passport 8600 Routing Switch to extend capabilities of Alteon Web Switches-Layer 4 through 7 switching, Web OS traffic management and content-aware switching and security-to the Passport 8600 platform. The Alteon WSM has four external Gigabit Ethernet or 10/100 TX ports and direct interface to the Passport 8600 backplane.

Key Features:

  • Combines the port capacity and density of the Passport 8600 modular switch with Alteon content-aware switching technology, to turn any existing Layer 2-3 Passport 8600 platform into a highly intelligent, content-aware device for Layer 2-7 Web switching
  • Delivers content-aware switching features that optimize network resources by using intelligent sub-string matching and Layer 7 precedence lookup and regular expression
  • Facilitates sophisticated session-level persistence methods to maximize profitability while minimizing infrastructure impact
  • Enhances security without degrading site performance via content filtering, advanced Layer 4-7 Delayed Binding, and industry leading application support for firewall, VPN and Intrusion Detection System (IDS) load balancing
  • Meters, controls, and accounts for bandwidth use-by client, server farm, virtual service, application, user class, content type and other traffic classes-and supports guaranteed minimum, metered available, and maximum burst bandwidth rates
