Granular QoS and Robust Security Controls
The S7500 10GE Static Routing Switch incorporates strict ARP learning to guard against ARP spoofing attacks that exhaust ARP table entries. It also provides IP Source Guard to mitigate DoS attacks stemming from MAC spoofing, IP spoofing, or combined MAC/IP spoofing.
Furthermore, the switch supports DHCP snooping, which builds binding entries based on a user's access interface, MAC address, IP address, lease time, and VLAN ID. By discarding invalid packets—such as those used for ARP or IP spoofing—that do not match these bindings, it prevents man-in-the-middle attacks initiated via ARP packets on campus networks. Interfaces connected to legitimate DHCP servers can be designated as trusted to protect against rogue DHCP server attacks.
