Ethernet Switch on Server to provide two 10G network 1) Please include dual Gigabit Ethernet Ports Technical requirement no change. also along with 10Gb Ethernet Card. This will As per our understanding E-District DATA centre will be located in the BHOPAL and Remote districts will be connecting to the data centre either by Leased line or ISDN BRI.The core router at DATA centre should be asked with ISDN PRI port to support Remote district dialing in through ISDN BRI.Request you change the port asked to ISDN PRI instead of ISDN BRI AS per the tender the interface required for the Since router is removed, this point is core routers is channelized STM which support irrelevant.
155 Mbps ,but the performance of the router asked is .2 MPPs which won't be sufficient to support the higher interface speed asked .
Kindly increase the Router performance to minimum of 1 Mpps Please clarificy the interface requirement for the Since router is removed, this point is Core Router Switch for DATA centre interface 24 As per the tender the port asked for the blade 10G port is for SAN switch connectivity.

Balance 20% shall be Quarterly Installments after completion of each for facility management shall be released We recommend that a support for at least 8000 MAC addresses is requested in the switch have capacity to store more mac address This way we can avoid broadcast of packet in all the ports when the mac-table gets filled with the less the Mac table due to less mac address support We recommend the switch should support more VLANs and VLAN ids for more scalable and easy We recommend this from a high availability perspective, at each of your remote locations.
We recommend this as this reduces the overhead of Technical requirement no change. creating / modifying / deleting VLANs in all the switches and in turn eliminating the configuration Unidirectional Links and disabling them to avoid problems such as spanning-tree loops. We also recommend Spanning-tree root guard feature to prevent other edge switches in the network to become the root bridge.
We recommend that the switch should support LLDP Technical requirement no change. and LLDP-MED including client location information. However bidder may propose equivalent Should exchange link and device information in multivendor networks and have capability of identifying neighboring network devices on the network snooping for IPv4 and MLD v1 and v2 Snooping for However bidder may propose equivalent IPv6 provide fast client joins and leaves of multicast or better solution.

We recommend that the switch supports DHCP server enabling a convenient deployment option for the assignment of IP addresses in networks that do or better solution.
We recommend that the switch should support rollback to replace current configuration configuration rollback to replace current configuration with any saved configuration file.
We recommend that the switch shouldIEEE 802.1x Technical requirement no change. to allow dynamic, port-based security, providing administrators to ensure consistent mapping of IP to DHCP snooping to allow administrators to MAC addresses. This can be used to prevent attacks that attempt to poison the DHCP binding database, and to rate limit the amount of DHCP traffic that enters a switch port.
We recommend that the switch should support o Time-domain reflectometer (TDR) to diagnose and We recommend the switch should supported The Loop guard and bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) guard which provide Spanning Tree Protocol loop avoidance if unauthorized switch connected to port on the switch We recommend the switch should support Layer 2 Technical requirement no change. traceroute feature which allows the switch to identify the physical path that a packet takes from a or better solution.
