Chapter 3 Product Overview

3.1 Preface
Quidway S3900 Series Ethernet switches are Ethernet equipment capable of multilayer switching. They come in two series: S3900-SI and S3900-EI. In addition to the basic service features, S3900 Series Ethernet switches support abundant Layer 3 features and enhanced extended functions.
!

S3900-SI series switches support basic routing functions, DHCP, basic IRF functions (not supported by S3924-SI), and IGMP-Snooping. S3900-EI series switches support advanced routing functions, DHCP, enhanced IRF functions, and enhanced multicast functions (including PIM-DM and PIM-SM).

Chapter 4 Networking Applications

You can deploy S3900 series on many types of networks, such as enterprise networks and broadband access networks. Following are several typical networking applications.

4.1 Broadband Ethernet Access for Residential Communities

On the broadband access network of a residential community, an S3900 series switch is located in the center. It is downlinked to S2000 or S3026 series switches to reach the Ethernet users and uplinked to a core Layer 3 switch through a GE extension module to connect to the MAN backbone.

4.2 Application for Connecting Branches or Small- to Medium-Sized Enterprises

For small-to medium-sized enterprises or branches of a large enterprise, S3900 series switches can server as the backbone switches on their networks and can be connected to the headquarters or other branches through routers. As the enterprise size increases, the network also can expand by subtending the S3900 series.

4.3 Application in Large Enterprise and Campus Networks

In a large enterprise or campus network, the S3900 series switches can operate on the convergence layer. They are downlinked to layer 2 switches, S3000 Series for example; and uplinked to a layer 3 switch through GE expansion modules. These switches together provide a network-wide intranet solution that covers Gigabit-to-backbone and 100 Mbps-to-desktop.
