24-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with Webview and PoE

Security Tab - HTTPS Settings

You can configure the Switch to enable the Secure Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTPS) over the Secure Socket Layer (SSL), providing secure access (that is, an encrypted connection) to the Switch’s web interface.

To enable HTTPS, select HTTPS Status and specify the port number.

Click Save Settings to save the changes.

Security Tab - Management ACL

Management ACL You can create a list of up to 16 IP addresses or IP address groups that are allowed access to the Switch through the web interface, SNMP, or Telnet.

The management interfaces are open to all IP addresses by default. Once you add an entry to a filter list, access to that interface is restricted to the specified addresses. If anyone tries to access a management interface on the Switch from an invalid address, the Switch will reject the connection, enter an event message in the system log, and send a trap message to the trap manager.

IP addresses can be configured for web, SNMP, and Telnet access. Each of these groups can include up to five different sets of addresses, either individual addresses or address ranges. When entering addresses for the same group (i.e., SNMP, web or Telnet), the Switch will not accept overlapping address ranges. When entering addresses for different groups, the Switch will accept overlapping address ranges.

You cannot delete an individual address from a specified range. You must delete the entire range, and reenter the addresses. You can delete an address range just by specifying the start address, or by specifying both the start address and end address.

SRW2024P specifications

The Linksys SRW2024P is a robust and versatile managed switch designed to meet the networking needs of small to medium-sized businesses. This switch features 24 Ethernet ports, making it suitable for connecting multiple devices while delivering exceptional performance and reliability. One of the standout features of the SRW2024P is its Power over Ethernet (PoE) capability, allowing users to power devices like IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points directly from the switch, eliminating the need for additional power sources and simplifying installations.

The SRW2024P supports a range of advanced technologies, including VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks), which enable network segmentation and improved security by isolating different network segments. This segmentation can help enhance performance and control broadcast domains effectively. Additionally, the switch supports Quality of Service (QoS), allowing users to prioritize network traffic, ensuring that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth for optimal performance. This feature is particularly beneficial in environments with high-definition video streaming or VoIP communications.

Another critical aspect of the Linksys SRW2024P is its support for robust network security protocols. With features like 802.1X port-based authentication, network administrators can enforce strict access control policies, ensuring that only authorized devices can connect to the network. The switch also provides basic security features such as MAC address filtering and access control lists (ACLs), enhancing the overall security of the network.

The easy-to-use web-based management interface makes it simple for administrators to configure and monitor the switch. It provides real-time information about network performance, port status, and traffic statistics, allowing for effective troubleshooting and management. The SRW2024P also includes the capability for SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), enabling integration with third-party network management solutions for more advanced monitoring and control.

In terms of physical characteristics, the Linksys SRW2024P is designed for reliable performance in various environments, with a compact rack-mountable chassis. This design allows for easy installation in standard 19-inch racks, making it a practical choice for businesses looking to optimize their network infrastructure.

In summary, the Linksys SRW2024P managed switch combines advanced networking features, ease of management, and PoE capabilities, making it an ideal choice for growing businesses looking to enhance their connectivity and network performance. With its reliable security measures, VLAN support, and QoS capabilities, the SRW2024P provides a solid foundation for a robust and scalable network.
