1-1. Overview of 24 FAST ETHERNET + 2 GIGABIT L2 MANAGED

SWITCH

24 FAST ETHERNET + 2 GIGABIT L2 MANAGED SWITCH, 24 Fast Ethernet + 2
Gigabit L2 Managed Switch, implemented 24 10/100Mbps TP + 2 Gig abit dual
media ports with TP/SFP, is a standard switch that meets all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z
Gigabit, Fast Ethernet and Ethernet specifications. The switch can be m anaged
through RS-232 serial port via directly connection, or through E thernet port using
Telnet or Web-based management unit, associated with SNMP agent. With the
SNMP agent, the network administrator can logon the switch to m onitor, configure
and control each port’s activity in a friendly way. The overall network management is
enhanced and the network efficiency is also improved to accom modate high
bandwidth applications. In addition, the switch features comprehensive and useful
function such as QoS (Quality of Service), Spanning Tree, VLAN, Port Trunking,
Bandwidth Control, Port Security, SNMP/RMON and IGMP Snooping capability via
the intelligent software. It is suitable for both metro-LAN and office application.
10/100/1000Mbps TP is a standard Ethernet port that meets all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z
Gigabit, Fast Ethernet specifications. 1000Mbps SFP Fiber transceiver is a Gigabit
Ethernet port that fully complies with all IEEE 802.3z and 1000Base-SX/LX
standards.
For upgrading firmware, please refer to the Section 3-20 or Section 4-2-2 for more
details. The switch will not stop operating while upgrading f irmware and after that,
the configuration keeps unchanged.
