5.1.2.2 Defining Line Passwords

Network administrators can define line passwords in the Line Password Page. After the line password is defined, a management method is assigned to the password. The device can be accessed using the following methods:

Console Passwords

Telnet Passwords

Secure Telnet Passwords

To configure line passwords:

1.Click System > Management Security > Passwords > Line Password. The Line Password Page opens:

Figure 41: Line Password Page

The Line Password Page contains the following fields:

Console Line Password — Defines the line password for accessing the device via a Console session. Pass- words can contain a maximum of 159 characters.

Telnet Line Password — Defines the line password for accessing the device via a Telnet session. Pass- words can contain a maximum of 159 characters.

Secure Telnet Line Password — Defines the line password for accessing the device via a secure Telnet session. Passwords can contain a maximum of 159 characters.

Confirm Password — Confirms the new line password. The password appears in the ***** format.

2.Define the Console Line Password, Telnet Line Password, and Secure Telnet Line Password fields.

3.Redefine the Confirm Password field for each of the passwords defined in the previous steps to verify the passwords.

4.Click . Line password is configured and device is updated.

5.1.2.3 Defining Enable Passwords

The Enable Password Page sets a local password for a particular access level.

To enable passwords:

1.Click System > Management Security > Passwords > Enable Password. The Enable Password Page opens:

Figure 42: Enable Password Page

The Enable Password Page contains the following fields:

Enable Access Level — Defines the access level associated with the enable password. Possible field val-ues are 1-15.

Password — Defines the enable password.

Confirm Password — Confirms the new enable password. The password appears in the ***** format.

2. Configure the fields and click .The password is enabled and the device is updated.

TL-SG3109, TL-SL3428, TL-SL3452 specifications

The TP-Link TL-SL3428 is a feature-rich Ethernet switch designed for small to medium-sized business environments. It is part of TP-Link’s JetStream series, which emphasizes reliability, performance, and robust management capabilities. Built with 28 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, the TL-SL3428 provides sufficient bandwidth to support a wide range of network applications.

One of the standout features of the TL-SL3428 is its support for Layer 2 management protocols. This allows for more granular control and optimized performance across network segments. The switch supports VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) segmentation, which enhances network security and efficiency by isolating various types of traffic. This feature is particularly useful in larger organizations where different departments or teams may require separate network environments.

The TL-SL3428 also includes advanced QoS (Quality of Service) capabilities. This functionality prioritizes traffic based on predefined rules, which ensures that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth to function optimally. With QoS implementation, users can experience minimized latency, leading to better performance in VoIP and video conferencing applications.

In terms of redundancy and reliability, the switch also supports Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), enabling multiple connections to be combined for increased bandwidth and failover support. This feature significantly enhances network resilience, ensuring minimal downtime during failures.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) support is another important characteristic of the TL-SL3428. With PoE capabilities, this switch can deliver electrical power along with data over the same Ethernet cable, simplifying installation and reducing the need for additional wiring. This is especially advantageous for IP devices like cameras, access points, and VoIP phones.

Security features are abundant in the TL-SL3428 as well. It implements port security, storm control, and DHCP snooping, all of which contribute to a secure network infrastructure. The switch’s management capabilities can be accessed through a user-friendly web interface, making it easier for IT administrators to configure and monitor network activities.

Overall, the TP-Link TL-SL3428 is an exemplary choice for businesses looking to enhance their network performance with advanced management features, security protocols, and reliability. Its combination of speed, flexibility, and manageability make it a valuable tool for any growing organization.
