24-port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView
Chapter 1: Introduction
Welcome
Thank you for choosing the 24-port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView. This Switch will allow you to network better than ever.
This new Linksys rackmount switch delivers non-blocking, wire speed switching for your 10, and 100 megabit network clients, plus multiple options for connecting to your network backbone. Twenty-four 10/100 ports wire up your workstations, while the two integrated 10/100/1000BaseTX ports connect to other switches and the backbone at Gigabit speeds. And the mini GBIC port allows future expansion to alternate transmission media like optical fiber.
It features WebView monitoring and configuration via your web browser, making it easy to manage the 64 VLANs and up to 7 trunking groups. Or if you prefer, you can use the integrated console port to configure the switch. The non-blocking, wire-speed switching forwards packets as fast as your network can deliver them.
All ports have automatic MDI/MDI-X crossover detection. Each port independently and automatically negotiates for best speed and whether to run in half- or full-duplex mode. Head-of-line blocking prevention keeps your high-speed clients from bogging down in lower-speed traffic and fast store-and-forward switching prevents damaged packets from being passed on into the network.
Use the instructions in this User Guide to help you connect the Switch, set it up, and configure it to bridge your different networks. These instructions should be all you need to get the most out of the 24-port 10/100 + 2-Port Gigabit Switch with WebView.
