Match. Criteria used to match IP addresses and /or MAC addresses with an ACL’s address.The possible field values are:

And. Both the MAC-based and the IP-based ACL must match a packet.

Or. Either the MAC-based or the IP-based ACL must match a packet.

MAC ACL. Matches packets to MAC based ACLs first, then matches packets to IP based ACLs.

Police. Enables Policer functionality.

Type. Policer type for the class. Possible values are:

Aggregate Policer. Configures the class to use a configured aggregate policer selected from the drop-down menu. An aggregate policer is defined if the policer is shared with multiple classes. Traffic from two different ports can be configured for policing purposes. An aggregate policer can be applied to multiple classes in the same policy map, but cannot be used across different policy maps.

Single. Configures the class to use manually configured information rates and exceed actions.

Aggregate Policer. User-defined aggregate policers.

Aggregate Policer Settings. The Aggregate Policer button opens the New Aggregate Policer screen.

Aggregate Policer Name. Enter a name in this field.

Ingress Committed Information Rate (CIR). Defines the CIR in bits per second. This field is only relevant when the Police value is Single.

Ingress Committed Burst Size (CBS). Defines the CBS in bytes per second. This field is only relevant when the Police value is Single.

Exceed Action. Action assigned to incoming packets exceeding the CIR. This field is only relevant when the Police value is Single. Possible values are:

Drop. Drops packets exceeding the defined CIR value.

Remark DSCP. Remarks packet’s DSCP values exceeding the defined CIR value.

None. Forwards packets exceeding the defined CIR value.

SRW2008MP, SRW2008, SRW2008P specifications

The Linksys SRW2008P, SRW2008, and SRW2008MP are robust Layer 2 managed switches designed to meet the demands of small to medium-sized businesses looking for reliable networking solutions. These switches offer a range of features tailored to enhance network performance and security, making them ideal for both simple and complex networking environments.

The SRW2008P is notable for its Power over Ethernet (PoE) capabilities, enabling it to deliver power and data to PoE-compatible devices such as IP cameras and VoIP phones over a single Ethernet cable. This feature simplifies cabling requirements by reducing the need for separate power outlets, thereby streamlining installation and reducing clutter. With eight 10/100 Mbps Ethernet ports, the SRW2008P can cater to multiple devices, providing flexible connectivity options.

In contrast, the SRW2008 model focuses on delivering advanced layer 2 switching features without PoE functionality. It also boasts eight 10/100 Mbps ports and offers a comprehensive set of management features that include VLAN support, port mirroring, and Quality of Service (QoS) prioritization. These capabilities are essential for creating efficient and well-organized networks, allowing administrators to segment traffic and prioritize important data streams, which is crucial for maintaining optimal network performance.

The SRW2008MP model combines the features of the SRW2008 and SRW2008P with enhanced managed capabilities. It includes more advanced management features, allowing for greater control over traffic and network performance. The SRW2008MP supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 capabilities, making it suitable for businesses looking to implement more sophisticated routing and switching protocols. With support for static routing, businesses can optimize their network traffic and improve overall efficiency.

All three models employ advanced technologies such as Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), which enhance network resilience and bandwidth utilization. Furthermore, they come equipped with user-friendly web-based interfaces for easy configuration and monitoring, ensuring that network administration is straightforward.

In summary, the Linksys SRW2008P, SRW2008, and SRW2008MP switches deliver a combination of performance, reliability, and advanced management features ideal for small to medium-sized enterprises. Their PoE capabilities, robust VLAN support, and user-friendly interfaces make them versatile solutions for businesses seeking to enhance their network infrastructure.
