The switches offer high CPU capacity, improved hardware processing power and easier user operation. The L3-XGF28 series supports flexible gigabit access and scalability of high-density 10G ports. All models provide fixed 4X10G fiber ports, With high switching capacity, the L3-XGF28 support wire-speed L2/L3 forwarding and high routing performance for IPv4 and IPv6 protocols. With end-to-end service delivery and a wide range of security configurations available, the L3-XGF28 series meets the high-speed, security, and intelligence needs of enterprise networks.

The L3-XGF28 series offers high performance hardware IP routing, Static route, OSPF and RIP provide dynamic routing by exchanging routing information with other Layer 3 switches and routers. With the L3-XGF28 series, customers could easily achieve a Policy-based Route (PBR), which is important when they need a Fiber Switch to switch application and short network heal time. The L3-XGF28 series with excellent price/performance ratio is ideal for large network aggregation, small to medium network core and server access for data centers.


What Is a Layer 3 Switch?
A Layer 3 switch is a specialized hardware device used in network routing. Layer 3 switches technically have a lot in common with typical routers, and not only in physical appearance. Both can support the same routing protocols, inspect incoming packets, and make dynamic routing decisions based on the source and destination addresses inside.

One of the main advantages of a Layer 3 switch over a router is in the way routing decisions are performed. Layer 3 switches are much lower network latency since packets don't have to take additional steps through a router.

Applications of Layer-3 Switches
Applications of Layer-3 Switches
  • Layer3 Switch is widely used in data centers and universities, factory, enterprise, where there is a very big setup of computer networking. Owing to its features like static, dynamic routing and its fast switching speed than a router, it is used in LAN connectivity for interconnection of several VLAN and LAN networks.
  • L3-XGF28 have the skills to offload the overloaded routers. This can be done by configuring a layer-3 switch, each with a main router in a wide area networking scenario so that the switch can manage all the local level VLAN routing.
  • The layer-3 switch in combination with a number of layer-2 switches supports more users to connect on the network without the need for implementation of an extra layer-3 switch and more bandwidth. Thus it is widely implemented in universities and small-scale industries. In case if the number of end users on a network platform increases, then without any enhancement of the network, it can be accommodated in the same running scenario easily.
  • A layer-3 switch is smart enough to handle and manage the routing and traffic controlling of locally connected servers and end devices utilizing its high bandwidth.
10G Performance and Scalability
10G Performance and Scalability
With high switching capacity, the L3-XGF28 support wire-speed L2/L3 forwarding and high routing performance for IPv4 and IPv6 protocols.
The 10 Gigabit Ethernet connectivity of L3-XGF28 is accomplished via a hot-pluggable 10 Gigabit SFP+ transceiver which supports distance up to 300 meters over multimode fiber and 10 to 40km over single-mode fiber (The distance depends on the optical module chosen).
Strong L3 IGMP Snooping Multicast
Strong L3 IGMP Snooping Multicast
L3 multicast protocols is compliant with IGMPv1/v2/v3, and supports abundant multicast features such as IGMP v2/v3 snooping and fast leave. With Multicast VLAN Register (MVR), multicast receiver/sender control and illegal multicast source detect functions; the L3-XGF28 fiber series provides a great application experience for the customer.
L3 OSPF Routes Management
L3 OSPF Routes Management
Open shortest path first (OSPF) is a link-state routing protocol that is used to find the best path between the source, which is generally used in the same routing domain. Here, routing domain refers to an autonomous system (as), which refers to a group of networks that exchange routing information through a unified routing policy or routing protocol. In this as, all OSPF routers maintain the same database describing the as structure, which stores the state information of the corresponding links in the routing domain. It is through this database that OSPF routers calculate their OSPF routing tables.

As a link state routing protocol, OSPF transmits link state multicast data LSA (link state advertisement) to all routers in a certain area, which is different from distance vector routing protocol. The router running distance vector routing protocol passes part or all of the routing tables to its neighboring routers.
L3 DHCP Snooping Support

Prevention against illegal Router(DHCP Server) attacks or sending DHCP information.
L3 VLAN IP Routing Interface Management
L3 VLAN IP Routing Interface Management
The L3-XGF28 provides 3 layers of VLAN interface, which is used to communicate with network layer devices. VLAN interface is a network layer interface, which can be configured with IP address. Before creating VLAN interface, the corresponding VLAN should be created first. With the help of VLAN interface, switches can communicate with other network layer devices.
Layer 2 vs Layer 3 Switch
Layer 2 vs Layer 3 Switch
The layer 2 and Layer 3 differs mainly in the routing function. A Layer 2 switch works with MAC addresses only and does not care about IP address or any items of higher layers. Layer 3 switch, or multilayer switch, can do all the job of a layer 2 switch and additional static routing and dynamic routing as well. That means, a Layer 3 switch has both MAC address table and IP routing table, and handles intra-VLAN communication and packets routing between different VLANs. There is also layer 2+ (layer 3 Lite) switch that adds only static routing. Other than routing packets, layer 3 switches also include functions that require to understand the IP address information of data entering the switch, such as tagging VLAN traffic based on IP address instead of manually configuring a port. Layer 3 switches are increased in power and security as demanded.
