Configuring the Switch

The following capabilities are supported..

10half  Supports 10 Mbps half-duplex operation

10full  Supports 10 Mbps full-duplex operation

100half  Supports 100 Mbps half-duplex operation

100full  Supports 100 Mbps full-duplex operation

1000half  Supports 1000 Mbps half-duplex operation

1000full  Supports 1000 Mbps full-duplex operation

Sym  (Gigabit only)  Check this item to transmit and receive pause frames, or clear it to autonegotiate the sender and receiver for asymmetric pause frames..

Flow Control  Allows automatic or manual selection of flow control..

Port Broadcast Control

Status  To enable broadcast control on a specified port, mark the Enabled checkbox for that port..

Threshold  You can protect your network from broadcast storms by setting a threshold for broadcast traffic for all ports.. Any broadcast packets exceeding the specified threshold will then be dropped..

After you modify the required port settings, click Apply..

Port Management > Link Aggregation

You can create multiple links between devices that work as one virtual, aggregate link (LAG).. An aggregated link offers a dramatic increase in bandwidth for network segments where bottlenecks exist, as well as providing a fault-tolerant link between two devices.. You can create up to four LAGs on the Switch.. Each LAG can contain up to eight ports..

Port Management > Link Aggregation

LAG  Displays the LAG number..

Description  Displays the description assigned to the interface..

Administrative Status  Indicates whether the interface is enabled or disabled..

Type  Indicates if a LAG has been manually configured (static) or dynamically set through LACP..

Link Status  Displays the status of the link.. Speed  Displays the port speed..

Duplex  Displays the duplex mode.. Flow Control  Displays the flow control..

Create  To create a new LAG, click the Create button in the Create column, then add members to the LAG by clicking on the Select Member button.. The select member screen for the Link Aggregation opens..

Port Management > Link Aggregation > Select Member

The LAG number is shown in the LAG drop-down menu.. The Ethernet ports are represented by check boxes.. Assign up to 8 ports to the LAG by checking the checkboxes of the ports, then click Apply..

Detail  To configure the LAG and the LAG broadcast control, click the Detail button.. The Link Aggregation detail screen will be displayed..

SRW248G4P specifications

Cisco Systems SRW248G4P is a high-performance Layer 2 switch designed specifically for small to medium-sized businesses that require robust networking solutions. This switch supports Power over Ethernet (PoE), providing a highly flexible option for powering devices such as IP phones, wireless access points, and surveillance cameras.

One of the standout features of the SRW248G4P is its 48 10/100 Ethernet ports, which ensure ample connectivity for various networked devices. Additionally, it offers four Gigabit Ethernet uplink ports, allowing for seamless integration with existing network infrastructure and facilitating high-speed data transfer. The combination of these ports enables businesses to expand their network capabilities as needed without the immediate requirement for added devices.

The SRW248G4P comes equipped with advanced Layer 2 switching capabilities, including VLAN support, which enables the segmentation of network traffic for improved performance and security. It also supports Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), which help prevent network loops and ensure redundancy. With features like Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), multiple physical connections can be combined into a single logical link, enhancing bandwidth and providing failover capabilities.

Another critical attribute of the Cisco SRW248G4P is its user-friendly management interface. The switch can be managed through a web-based interface, allowing IT administrators to configure settings, monitor performance, and troubleshoot issues with ease. Additionally, it supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for integration with network management systems, further simplifying monitoring tasks.

Power over Ethernet functionality is a significant advantage of the SRW248G4P, providing up to 15.4 watts per port. This capability simplifies installation and reduces the clutter of power cords and outlets. Organizations can deploy PoE-enabled devices in locations that lack power sources, thus enhancing overall flexibility in network design.

In summary, the Cisco Systems SRW248G4P is a feature-rich switch tailored for small to medium-sized enterprises. Its blend of performance, management capabilities, and advanced features like PoE makes it a valuable asset in any organization's networking setup. By ensuring reliable connectivity and ease of management, businesses can focus more on growth and their core objectives rather than worrying about network complexities.
