Layer 3 Fully
Featured Operating System
AlliedWare Plus™ is Allied Telesis' next generation
operating system. In keeping with the increasing
complexity of Allied Telesis' ever-improving and
feature-rich software, AlliedWare Plus employs a
new modular approach to software creation and
distribution. It represents a quantum shift in the
software development methodology for Allied
Telesis switches and routers - providing you with
even more features and greater robustness from
the operating system.
The AlliedWare Plus operating system combines
superior networking functionality and strong
management capabilities with the exceptional
performance that today's networks demand.
A standards-based implementation, it also assures
full interoperability with other major network
equipment, along with improved usability and
therefore a superior customer experience.
High-Performance and
High-Availability
Virtual Chassis Stacking
Vir tual Chassis Stacking makes networking simple.
It allows you to connect between 2 and 8
1
switches together via high-bandwidth 15Gbps
stacking links. This aggregates the switches, which
then appear as a single switch, or 'Vir tual Chassis'.
The Vir tual Chassis can be configured and
managed via a single serial console or IP address,
which provides greater ease of management in
comparison to an arrangement of individually
managed switches, and often eliminates the need
to configure protocols like VRRP and Spanning Tree.
Vir tual Chassis Stacking provides a high availability
system where network resources can be spread
out across a number of stacked switches, thus
reducing the impact should any one of the stacked
switches fail. Por ts on different switches across the
stack can be aggregated to provide excellent link
redundancy.
Hot-swappable XEM modules
The AlliedWare Plus operating system suppor ts
hot-swappable XEM modules, dramatically reducing
system downtime. You can remove and add XEM
modules, or swap a XEM for another of the same
sor t - all without having to reboot or reconfigure
your network.
Modularity + Monitoring = Robust
Flexibility
AlliedWare Plus has a modular architecture,
providing superior reliability. It uses separate
software processes, or modules, to handle
different functions - for example management,
routing protocols, and control functions. Each of
these modules can only access its own allocated
memor y, which prevents processes from
corrupting each other and causing system crashes.
Although independent of each other, modules
communicate via well-defined interfaces.
To achieve even greater reliability, independent
monitoring software has been utilized alongside
the modular architecture. This provides passive
monitoring and periodic health checks for all
impor tant processes, and sends messages to
inform system administrators of issues and
resolutions.
Industry Standard Command Line
Interface (CLI)
The AlliedWare Plus operating system incorporates
an industry standard CLI, facilitating intuitive
manageability. Each command is associated with a
specific function, or a common function performing a
specific task.You can automate some of your
configuration tasks, as many of these commands may
also be used in scripts.Triggers can also be utilized,
providing a powerful mechanism for automatic and
timed management by automating the execution of
commands in response to specific events.
