ZyXEL GS4012F is an intelligent Gigabit multilayer (L2/L3/L4) Ethernet switch that provides enterprise-class availability, resilient and redundant architecture with OSPF, VRRP, RSTP and port trunking. The GS4012F Series offers many advanced features to make it the preferred choice for real-routing network in the enterprise. Advanced functionalities like QoS, rate-limiting, rule-based access control lists, multicasting support, wire-speed, high-performance IP routing and simplified management software (iStacking) highly improve network operation.

 

 

	8 SFP open slots and 4 dual-personality GbE interface for link aggregation and fiber flexibility
	L3+ IP Routing RIP & OSPF Support
	Multicast DVMRP & IGMP Support for best multimedia QoS
	High Redundancy and Resilient Architecture with RSTP,VRRP & Port Trunking
	ZyXEL iStacking Technology, Clustering Network Management for easy management
	The GS-4000 Series consists of two switches: the GS-4024 with 20-port 100/1000BASE-T RJ-45 and four dual-personality GbE interface (RJ-45 or SFP)
	The GS-4000 Series works with ZyXEL exclusive iFlow technology, a set of advanced QoS mechanisms, to insure noteworthy service and smooth operation via a series of QoS processes to prevent customers' networks being negatively impacted by network congestion
	The GS-4000 Series works with iSafe intelligent 3-tiers security which offers complete data security in the data and management plane via a wide range of security features to protect users data and administrative traffic and secure the network from unauthorized users
	The GS-4000 Series multilayer (L2/L3/L4) ACLs suite of sophisticated rule-based control mechanisms is easily deployed, based on realistic network environments via a Web GUI or command line to prevent abnormal and illegal access
	The GS-4000 Series works with iManage intelligent network management tool kits
