Introduction
Thank you for choosing Linksys WebView Switches. This
User Guide covers five product models:
SRW2048
48-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with
WebView. Includes 48 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 4
shared SFP (MiniGBIC) slots.
SRW2024
24-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with
WebView. Includes 24 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2
shared SFP (MiniGBIC) slots.
SRW2016
16-Port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Switch with
WebView. Includes 16 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2
shared SFP (MiniGBIC) slots.
SRW248G4
48-port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch
with WebView. Includes 48 10/100 RJ-45 ports and 4
10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2 shared SFP (MiniGBIC)
slots.
SRW224G4
24-port 10/100 + 4-Port Gigabit Switch
with WebView Includes 24 10/100 RJ-45 ports and 4
10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2 shared SFP (MiniGBIC)
slots.
For the purpose of this manual, whenever a feature
applies to all models, the name WebView Switch will be
referenced. If a specific model number is mentioned, then
the feature is specific to that model.
The Linksys WebView Managed Switch allows you to
expand your network securely. Configuration of the switch
is secured using SSL for Web access. User control is secured
using 802.1x security using a RADIUS authentication
mechanism and can also be controlled using MAC-based
filtering.
Extensive QoS features makes the solution ideal for real-
time applications like Voice and Video. The 4 priority
queues together with the Weighted Round Robin and
Strict Priority scheduling techniques facilitate efficient
coexistence of real-time traffic with data traffic allowing
them each to meet their QoS needs.
Individual users or applications can be prioritized above
others using various Class of Service options - by port,
layer 2 priority (802.1p), and Layer 3 priority (TOS or
DSCP). Intelligent Broadcast, and Multicast storm control
minimizes and contain the effect of these types of traffic on
regular traffic. IGMP Snooping limits bandwidth-intensive
video traffic to only the requestors without flooding to all
users.
Incoming traffic can be policed and outgoing traffic can
be shaped allowing you to control network access and
traffic flow.
There are features that allow you to expand and grow your
network of switches. Link aggregation allows multiple
high-bandwidth trunks between switches to be setup.
This also provides a level of reliability in that the system
continues to operate if one of the links break. Spanning
Tree (STP), Fast Linkover, Rapid Spanning Tree (RSTP) and
Multiple Spanning Tree (MSTP) allows you to build a mesh
of switches increasing the availability of the system.
The rich management functionality of the WebView
switches
includes
SNMP,
RMON, Telnet,
and
HTTP
Management options, allowing you to flexibly integrate
and manage these devices in your network.
