he SNMP-GSH 2416 24-port Gigabit L2 Managed Switch is a standard switch that meets all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z Gigabit, Fast Ethernet specifications. The switch included 8-Port 10/100/1000Mbps UTP and 16-Port Gigabit SFP Fiber management Ethernet switch. The switch can be managed through RS-232 serial port via directly connection, or through Ethernet port using CLI or Web-based management unit, associated with SNMP agent. With the SNMP agent, the network administrator can login the switch to monitor, configure and control each port's activity in a friendly way. The overall network management is enhanced and the network efficiency is also improved to accommodate high bandwidth applications. In addition, the switch features comprehensive and useful function such as QoS (Quality of Service), Spanning Tree, VLAN, Port Trunking, Bandwidth Control, Port Security, SNMP/RMON, IGMP Snooping capability and Illegal Access Report via the intelligent software. It is suitable for both metro-LAN and office application |

QoS support layer 4 classification |
The Ether-GSH8TW v2 features 8 Pure Gigabit Copper ports with auto MDI/MDI-X function to eliminate the need for cross-over cables. It can achieve Gigabit speed with Standard Cat. 5 cable. In addition to the 8 standard Gigabit ports; there is a dedicated 10/100Mbps Web management port that allow users to configure the switch through local LAN or over the Internet. The management port is not influenced by the VLAN configuration. If if you make a mistake in switch configuration that make the ports inaccessible. You can quickly change the setting through the management port.

Remote Management |
The switch supports not only Layer 2 802.1p Priority Queue control, but also supports programmable higher layer classification and prioritization to enable enhanced Quality of Service (QoS) support for real time applications base on information taken from Layer 2 to Layer 4, such as VoIP

Q-in-Q VLAN for performance & security |
The VLAN feature in the switch offers the benefits of both security and performance. VLAN is used to isolate traffic between different users and thus provides better security. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN broadcast domain also enhances performance. VLAN support enabling advanced techniques such as 802.1Q-in-1Q" to be deployed.

802.1x Access Control Improve Network Security |
802.1x features enable user authentication for each network access attempt. Port security features allow you to limit the number of MAC addresses per port in order to control the number of stations for each port. Static MAC addresses can be defined for each port to ensure only registered machines are allowed to access. By enabling both of these features, you can establish an access mechanism based on user and machine identities, as well as control the number of access

802.1D Compatible & 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree |
For mission critical environments with multiple switches supporting STP, you can configure the switches with a redundant backup bridge path so transmission and reception of packets can be guaranteed in event of any fail-over switch on the network.

Broadcast/Multicast Storm Control |
To limit too many broadcast/multicast flooding in the network, broadcast/multicast storm control is used to restrict excess traffic. Threshold values are available to control the rate limit for each port. Packets are discarded if the count exceeds the configured upper threshold.
