•• Error  A system error has occurred.

•• Warning  A system warning has occurred.

•• Notice  The system is functioning properly, but system notice has occurred.

•• Informational  Provides device information.

•• Debug  Provides detailed information about the log. If a Debug error occurs, contact Customer Tech Support.

Admin > Port Mirroring

Port mirroring monitors and mirrors network traffic by forwarding copies of incoming and outgoing packets from one port to a monitoring port. Port mirroring can be used as diagnostic tool and/or a debugging feature. Port mirroring also enables switch performance monitoring.

Admin > Port Mirroring

Network administrators configure port mirroring by selecting a specific port to copy all packets, and different ports from which the packets are copied.

Source Port  Defines the port to which traffic is mirrored.

Type  Indicates the port mode configuration for port mirroring. The possible field values are:

•• RxOnly  Defines the port mirroring on receiving ports. This is the default value.

•• TxOnly  Defines the port mirroring on transmitting ports.

•• Both  Defines the port mirroring on both receiving and transmitting ports.

Target Port  Defines the port from which traffic is mirrored.

Advanced Configuration

Admin > Cable Test

The Cable Test screen shows you results from performance tests on copper cables. The maximum cable length that can be tested is 120 meters. Cables are tested when the ports are in the down state, except for the Approximate Cable Length test.

Admin > Cable Test

Port  This is the port to which the cable is connected.

Test Result  This is the test result. OK indicates that the cable passed the test. No Cable means there is no cable connected to the port. Open Cable means the cable is connected on only one side. Short Cable indicates that a short has occurred in the cable. Undefined indicates that the test could not be properly performed.

Cable Fault Distance  This is the distance from the port at which the cable error occurred.

Last Update  This is the last time the port was tested. Test  Click the Test button to perform the test.

Cable Length  This is the approximate length of the cable. The Cable Length test can be performed only when the port is up and operating at 1Gbps.

SRW2016, SRW224G4, SRW2024, SRW2048, SRW248G4 specifications

The Linksys SRW2048 is a robust Layer 2 managed switch that caters to the networking needs of small to medium-sized businesses. Designed with performance and reliability in mind, it provides features that ensure optimal network efficiency and security.

One of the standout features of the SRW2048 is its 48 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports, enabling high-speed data transfer and seamless connectivity for various devices within the network. This makes it ideal for environments with heavy data traffic, ensuring minimal latency and high performance.

The SRW2048 also supports advanced Layer 2 management features, including VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) support, which allows users to segment the network into smaller, manageable sections. This is crucial for improving security and performance, as it reduces unnecessary traffic and potential broadcast storms. With a VLAN configuration, businesses can group users and devices based on function or department, ensuring efficient communication within teams.

In addition to VLAN capabilities, the Linksys SRW2048 incorporates Quality of Service (QoS) features. This technology prioritizes critical network traffic, such as voice over IP (VoIP) and video conferencing, ensuring that these applications receive the bandwidth they require for optimal performance. This is particularly beneficial for businesses that rely on real-time communication tools.

The switch also enhances security through features such as IEEE 802.1X port security, which ensures that only authorized users can access the network. The SRW2048 supports access control lists (ACLs), allowing administrators to set specific permissions for users and devices, further tightening security.

Linksys has also equipped the SRW2048 with a user-friendly web-based management interface, simplifying the process of configuring and monitoring network performance. This accessible interface allows IT personnel to quickly identify issues, manage traffic, and configure settings without extensive training.

Another notable characteristic of the Linksys SRW2048 is its robust build quality and reliability. With a metal chassis and fanless design, it maintains a low acoustic footprint and ensures passive cooling, making it suitable for office environments.

Overall, the Linksys SRW2048 is a feature-rich managed switch that combines advanced networking technologies, efficient performance, and security features to meet the diverse needs of modern businesses.
