The Nortel AL2012E14 BayStack 450-24T switch use autosensing ports that are designed to operate at 10 Mb/s or at 100 Mb/s, depending on the connecting device. These ports support the IEEE 802.3u autonegotiation standard, which means that when a port is connected to another device that also supports the IEEE 802.3u standard, the two devices negotiate the best speed and duplex mode.  The 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX switch ports also support half- and full-duplex mode operation

The Nortel AL2012E14 BayStack 450 switches provide wire-speed switching that allows high-performance, low-cost connections to full-duplex and half-duplex 10/100/1000 Mb/s Ethernet local area networks (LANs). 

BayStack 450Nortel AL2012E14  switches offer the following features:
• High-speed forwarding rate: Up to 3 million packets per second (peak)
• Store-and-forward switch: Full-performance forwarding at full line speed, using a 2.56 Gigabit/second switch fabric
• Learning rate: 3 million addresses per second (peak)

Address database size: 16,000 entries at line rate (32,000 entries without flooding)
• Fail-Safe Stacking: Provides uninterrupted connectivity for up to eight units, with up to 224 ports stacked together as one managed unit (requires one optional BayStack 400-ST1 Cascade Module kit per stacked unit. .
• Spanning Tree Protocol (STP): Complies with IEEE 802.1D standard. STP can be disabled on the entire switch or stack, or on a per-port basis.

The Nortel AL2012E14 BayStack 450 switches support up to 64 port-based or protocol-based VLANs.  When a switch port is configured to be a member of a VLAN, it is added to a group of ports (workgroup) that belong to one broadcast domain. You can assign different ports (and therefore the devices attached to these ports) to different broadcast domains. This feature allows network flexibility because you can reassign VLANs to accommodate network moves, additions, and changes, eliminating the need to change physical cabling.
