The BCM56100 is the fifth generation of the highly-integrated and cost-
effective Broadcom StrataSwitch and StrataXGS product line in a single-
chip solution, with twenty-four FE ports and two GbE ports.
With high-integration, the BCM56100 family is ideal for Enterprise
applications in stand-alone, stackable, and chassis configurations. The
BCM56100 configurations are applicable in the edge, aggregation, and
core areas of the Enterprise. The BCM56100 is also ideal for embedded
switch applications like the Blade Server Switch, ATCA chassis,
IPDSLAM, 3G Wireless Base Station, and others.
The BCM56100 integrates sophisticated advanced L3 switching features
for cost-effective highly manageable enterprise networks. The
BCM56100 performs IPv6 routing and transition services in hardware,
allowing IT managers to deploy L3 switches that are future-proof, highly
manageable L3 networks and to enable cost-effective transition from
IPv4 to IPv6.
The ContentAware classification feature of the StrataSwitch and
StrataXGS has been further enhanced in the BCM56100 with unmatched
flexibility and programmability. The ContentAware engine could be
used for applications such as policy-based routing, access control list,
dynamic adaptation to changes in virus threats, and so on.
The BCM56100 has built-in security functions for highly secure
Enterprise networks including BroadSAFE™. Utilizing hardware-based
identity management and authentication coupled with key management
software that directs and manages clients, BroadSAFE Security provides
exceptionally strong network security without impacting network
performance.
The BCM56100 integrates sophisticated metering, statistics, and traffic
management features, optimizing the QoS in the Enterprise networks for
voice, video, and data convergence. The BCM56100 also provides rate
adjustable hardware-based sFlow implementation and flexible multiple
session remote port mirroring functionality for efficient network
management.
The BCM56100 switch supports an I2C controller for communicating
with external devices such as serial EEPROM, flash PROM memories,
and parallel port devices, and also supports a serial interface for the MII
management of physical layer devices.
The BCM56100 switch interfaces to a host CPU via a 32-bit PCI bus
running at up to 66 MHz. Bus mastering and advanced DMA are
supported for efficient exchange of packet data between CPU memory
and the BCM56100 switch.
