Overview
SMC’s TigerSwitch™ 100 is a stackable switch with 24 100BASE-FX
VF-45 ports, plus two slots for optional slide-in 100BASE-FX or
1000BASE-X modules. One of these slots can also be used for an
optional stacking module that a llows you attach up to four switches
to a 9.6 Gbps high-speed backplane. There is also an SNMP-based
Network Management Module installed in the rear panel. This
module supports both in-band and out-of-band access for managing
the switch and the attached stack. (Note that a switch stack, or a
switch in a standalone configuration, must have Network
Management Module installed to enable all ports. The base unit
alone has all ports disabled by default.)
