Network Application
This section provides few samples of network topology in witch the switch is used.
In general, the 24 10/100/1000TX plus 4 Mini GBIC Web Managed Switch is
designed as a segment switch. That is, with its large address table (8K MAC
address) and high performance, it is ideal for interconnecting networking
segments.
PC, workstations and servers can communicate each other by directly connecting
with 24 10/100/1000TX plus 4 Mini GBIC Web Managed Switch. The switch
automatically learns nodes address, which are subsequently used to filter and
forward all traffic based on the destination address.
By using Uplink port, the switch can connect with another switch or hub to
interconnect other small-switched workgroups to form a larger switched network.
Meanwhile, you can also use fiber ports to connect switches.
Small Workgroup
The 24 10/100/1000TX plus 4 Mini GBIC Web Managed Switch can be used as a
standalone switch for personal computers, server and printer server which are
directly connected to form a small workgroup.
