Preface

This manual describes how to install and use the 17-Port Fast Ethernet Switch. The switch introduced here is a base unit providing 3 expansion slots, including two slots for 8-port modules and one slot for single-port module. The 8-port modules allow for 10/100BaseTX or 100BaseFX; the single-port module allows for 10/100BaseTX or 100BaseFX. Over a dozen of TX and FX modules or a combination of TX/FX are available for fitting the switch. Furthermore, the 17-Port Switch supports port-based VLAN and MAC-based trunking technologies.

To get the most out of this manual, you should have an understanding of networking concepts such as bridging, IEEE 802.3u 100BaseTX/FX Fast Ethernet, and local area networks (LANs).
