Chapter 1: Introduction

Overview

The TigerSwitch 10/100/1000, SMC8126PL2-F, is an intelligent Layer 2 switch with 26 10/100/1000BASE-T ports, four of which are combination ports* that are shared with four SFP transceiver slots (see Figure 1-1, Ports 21-24).

The switch’s 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports support the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard that enables DC power to be supplied to attached devices over wire pairs in the connecting Ethernet cable.

The SMC8126PL2-F includes an SNMP-based management agent embedded on the main board, which supports both in-band and out-of-band access for managing the switch.

The switch can easily tame your network with full support for Spanning Tree Protocol, Multicast Switching, and Virtual LANs. It brings order to poorly performing networks by segregating them into separate broadcast domains with IEEE 802.1Q compliant VLANs, empowers multimedia applications with multicast switching and
