It is time to modernize network access
What you said

What we heard
“I need interoperability and painless
deployment in my current network.”
Our customers want reliable alternatives to a one vendor
network with smart integration capabilities that avoid a ripand-replace strategy.
“I need to expand the network but I also
need to use what I already have. That
seems really hard to do.”
Our customers want to grow with the best networking
equipment available to support new applications but it must
avoid unnecessary complexity when integrating into an
existing network environment.
“My networks are strained due to
additional devices, richer media, and
more applications.”
Our customers want to enable users and their devices to
perform optimally and to do that they need greater
performance and higher availability in their network.
“We are struggling to manage and control
our growing networks.”
Our customers need a virtualized network and central
control based on underlying traffic patterns that work
across networking devices.

It is time for Dell Networking N-Series
N-Series is a family of energy efficient and cost-effective
1GbE and 10GbE switches designed for modernizing and scaling
network infrastructure.

Design, deploy and manage your way
Modernize campus network architectures
Leverage familiar tools and practices
• One common CLI and GUI using a well-known
command language gets skilled network
administrators productive quickly.
• Maintain consistent configurations by running one OS
release across all products in the series.
• Rapidly deploy mirrored configurations to numerous
devices by simply inserting in a USB key.
• Supports loop-free redundancy without spanning
tree using MLAG to create high availability and full
bandwidth utilization.
• Interfaces seamlessly with Cisco proprietary
protocols like RPVST+ and devices running CDP
for greater interoperability and integration.
• Unite various networking products with the latest
open standard protocols for more network choice.
Deploy with confidence at any scale
• Creates assurance with high throughput and
capacity to handle unexpected traffic loads.
• Scales easily with built-in stacking ports and
advancements to improve resiliency on up to 12
units.
• Offers certainty with a lifetime warranty that
covers software upgrades, hardware repair or
replacement, optics, and cables.

Dell Networking OS 6
Common Firmware, CLI, and GUI across N-Series products
Key features and innovations
• Multi-chassis Link Aggregation (MLAG) creates
active/active loop-free redundancy without implementing
expensive spanning tree protocols.
• Remote Switch Port Analyzer (RSPAN) allows you to
monitor ports across a Layer 2 domain without
purchasing costly dedicated network taps.
• Interface seamlessly with Rapid Per-VLAN Spanning
Tree (RPVST+) for greater flexibility and interoperability
with Cisco networks. (Available with OS 6.1 release)
• DHCP Snooping ensures IP integrity on a Layer 2
switched domain to harden the security of the LAN.
• Authentication Tiering allows admins to tier port
authentication methods, such as 802.1x, MAC
Authentication Bypass, and Captive Portal in priority
order so that a single port can provide flexible access
and security.
• OpenFlow 1.0 provides first-look SDN capabilities in
environments outside the data center. Beta release.
• And hundreds more including the latest open-standard
protocols.
• Policy Based Routing (PBR) allows you to forward
packets based on assigned criteria beyond destination
address. Policy Based Forwarding (PBF) is available
on Layer 2 devices.
Built for the skilled network administrator
It’s about doing things the way skilled network administrators do things.
It’s about them getting the results they expect. It’s about consistency
and familiarity to help increase productivity. Dell Networking OS 6 is
used across all N-Series products with the same software, same
commands, and same user interface – an interface network
administrators will recognize and feel comfortable using without
additional training.
