Security features do exist, and they're mostly common with other switches. What makes these switches unique is the ability to see application layers on the switch, but not directly through the switch. There are tools from Extreme Networks that allow visibility of such traffic, which other switches lack. Extreme CloudIQ analytics can analyze all the traffic on Extreme Switches up to layer seven, offering full visibility. However, this tool is necessary for such detailed analytics and might not be compatible with some third-party products. Improvements are always possible. One suggestion from a customer about Universal switches was to merge the two operating systems into one to create a new, unified OS, but that would take a lot of time and might affect stability. Juniper did that with their firmware and faced customer issues. So, creating a new OS is a tough call. From Enterasys Campus Compass, they're doing well, but the Data Center Switches aren't. Data Center switches, like Extreme Switching for data center networks. Those are separate categories from the Campus Switches.
LAN Switching enhances network performance by segmenting traffic and reducing congestion. It utilizes switches to create multiple collision domains, improving bandwidth availability. This technology is crucial for efficient data handling in enterprise environments.LAN Switching is essential for optimizing network efficiency, providing intelligent forwarding decisions to ensure that data packets are sent to the correct location without flooding unnecessary parts of the network. This capability...

The tool's price is high. We need a cost-effective service. It also needs to add wireless controller features like Huawei.
While the support is good, it could be better, and the price could be reduced.
