Admin > Static Address

Admin > Static Address

The Static Address screen lets you assign a static address to a specific Switch interface. A static address is bound to its assigned interface and cannot be moved. If a static address is seen on an interface to which it is not assigned, the address is ignored and is not written to the address table.

A list of all static addresses on the Switch appears at the bottom of the screen. The top part of the screen contains the following fields for creating static address entries:

Interface  The interface that is associated with the static address. Select Port or LAG, then select the desired interface from the accompanying drop-down menu.

MAC Address  This is the physical address that is being mapped to the specified interface.

VLAN ID  The VLAN ID number (1-4094) of the configured VLAN that is associated with the specified interface. If you use this field the VLAN Name field is disabled.

VLAN Name  The name of the VLAN associated with the specified interface. If you use this field, the VLAN ID field is disabled.

Status  The static address type. The possible values are::

•Permanent  (Default) Keep the entry permanently.

•Delete on Reset  Delete the entry when the Switch is reset.

•Delete on Timeout  Delete the entry when a timeout occurs. The default timeout period is 300 seconds.

•Secure  The entry is defined for locked ports.

After you have entered the information listed above, click Add to List. The static address will then appear in the list of static addresses. To delete a static MAC address from the list, select the entry in the list, then click Delete.

Admin > Dynamic Address

Admin > Dynamic Address

The Dynamic Address screen lets you query the Dynamic Address Table to find specific dynamic MAC addresses, or display MAC addresses associated with a specific interface or VLAN. Query criteria include interface type, MAC address, VLAN, and table sort key. You can also set the Dynamic MAC Address Table’s address aging parameter or clear the table.

Address Aging  Specifies the amount of time (in seconds) that a MAC address remains in the Dynamic MAC Address table before it times out, if no traffic from the source is detected. The default value is 300 seconds.

Clear Table  If selected, this clears the MAC Address table.

SLM224G4S specifications

The Linksys SLM224G4S is a sophisticated Layer 2 managed switch designed for businesses and institutions that demand high performance, reliability, and advanced networking features. This model stands out due to its blend of robustness and manageability, making it ideal for expanding networks.

One of the primary features of the SLM224G4S is its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, allowing for high-speed data transfers essential for bandwidth-intensive applications. Supporting auto-negotiation, these ports can detect the capabilities of connected devices and configure themselves accordingly, ensuring optimal performance without manual intervention. With four additional shared Gigabit SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) ports, this switch provides flexibility in network design and enhances scalability.

The SLM224G4S supports VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) capabilities, which can segment network traffic to improve security and performance. This is particularly useful in environments where different departments or teams require distinct network segments for operational efficiency. By implementing VLANs, organizations can enhance their network management while isolating sensitive information from potential threats.

Quality of Service (QoS) is another critical technology integrated into the SLM224G4S. It prioritizes network traffic, ensuring that critical applications receive the bandwidth they need for optimal performance. This is particularly important for VoIP and video conferencing applications, where latency and jitter can significantly impact user experience.

The switch also features advanced Layer 2 management functionalities, including SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), allowing IT administrators to monitor network performance and quickly troubleshoot issues. The embedded web-based management interface makes configuration straightforward, enabling quick adjustments to settings without deep networking knowledge.

Security is a paramount consideration in today’s networking landscape. The SLM224G4S provides robust security features, including port security that limits the number of MAC addresses allowed on a port, reducing the risk of unauthorized access. Moreover, it supports802.1X port-based authentication, ensuring that only authenticated devices can connect to the network.

In summary, the Linksys SLM224G4S managed switch boasts features such as 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, VLAN support, QoS, SNMP management, and advanced security protocols. These characteristics make it an excellent choice for businesses looking to enhance their network's performance, safety, and reliability, paving the way for seamless connectivity in today’s digital age.
