NOTE: The HTTP firmware recovery features supports the following browsers:

Firefox 3.0 and later versions

Internet Explorer 6 and later versions

A Firmware Recovery page displays. No authentication is required.

The web page displays the PIC VID (product ID and vendor ID), serial number, and MAC Address of the switch.

STEP 4 Select Browse and select a valid firmware image to download.

A progress bar appears while the file is downloading. The following message appears upon a successful download:

100% Complete

File downloaded successfully. Please wait while the file is being written to flash.

The file selected by administrator is downloaded to RAM and is validated for following conditions:

The CRC of the file is good.

The STK file is built for this platform.

The STK file size is within the partition limits (4.5 MB is reserved for this file).

If these conditions are met, the file is written to Flash memory and the system is rebooted using the new firmware.

If any of these checks fail, the image is not written to Flash memory and the recovery process is stopped. You can restart the recovery process with a correct image file.

If the transfer is aborted because the browser window is refreshed or closed, the session is cleared and the session times out immediately. If the transfer is aborted because the network is unreachable, the session times out after 45 seconds. After the session times out, you can begin the recovery process again.

SLM2008PTNA specifications

Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is a robust network switch designed specifically for small to medium-sized businesses. It operates with 8 Fast Ethernet ports, providing advanced features and best-in-class performance to enhance your network infrastructure. This model ensures seamless connectivity for multiple devices, making it an ideal choice for environments requiring reliable network communication.

One of the standout features of the SLM2008PTNA is its Layer 2 switching capabilities. This switch supports auto-negotiation, which allows each port to automatically detect the speed of the connected device and adjust accordingly. This ensures optimal performance and smooth operation across various connected devices. Additionally, the switch supports a non-blocking architecture, ensuring that bandwidth is not shared, which significantly enhances data transmission speed.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is another key technology incorporated into the Cisco SLM2008PTNA. It simplifies the installation of network devices such as VoIP phones, security cameras, and wireless access points by supplying power through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power sources, reducing installation costs and increasing flexibility in device placement.

Moreover, the SLM2008PTNA comes equipped with advanced security features, such as port security and VLAN support. Port security allows network administrators to restrict access to the network based on MAC addresses, preventing unauthorized access and enhancing network security. The support for Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) enables the segmentation of the network into different logical networks, improving traffic management and security within each segment.

The switch is designed for easy management and monitoring, featuring a user-friendly web interface that simplifies configuration. This allows network administrators to quickly set up and manage the device without requiring extensive technical knowledge. Additionally, its compact design makes it suitable for desktop or rack-mount installation, maximizing space efficiency in network environments.

In conclusion, the Cisco Systems SLM2008PTNA is an essential component for small to medium-sized businesses looking to enhance their network performance. With its Layer 2 switching capabilities, Power over Ethernet support, advanced security features, and ease of management, this switch provides a well-rounded solution for modern networking needs, delivering reliable performance and scalability for growth.
