•Assists attached hardware in switching frames, based on Layer 2 information contained in the frames.

•Provides a complete switch management portfolio for the network administrator.

Switch Management Overview

Fast Ethernet (FEN) and Gigabit Ethernet (GEN) switching continues to evolve from high-end backbone applications to desktop switching applications. The price of the technology continues to decline, while performance and feature sets continue to improve. Devices that are capable of switching Layers 2, 3, and 4 are increasingly in demand. The GSM7224 Layer 2 Managed Switch provides a flexible solution to these ever-increasing needs.

The GSM7224 Layer 2 Managed Switch provides the network administrator with a set of comprehensive management functions for managing both the GSM7224 and the network. The network administrator has a choice of three easy-to-use management methods:

•Web-based

•VT100 interface

Note: The maximum number of configuration file command lines is 2000.
