Overview
SMC’s TigerSwitch 10/100 (SMC6724L3) is an intelligent multilayer switch
with 24 10/100BASE-TX ports plus two slots on the front panel for
slide-in modules (100BASE-FX, 1000BASE-SX/LX/T, or GBIC
transceivers). There is also an SNMP-based management agent embedded
on the main board. This agent supports both in-band and out-of-band
access for managing the switch.
This switch can easily tame your network with full support for Spanning
Tree Protocol, Multicast Switching, Virtual LANs, and IP routing. It brings
order to poorly performing networks by segregating them into separate
broadcast domains with IEEE 802.3Q compliant VLANs, empowers
multimedia applications with multicast switching and QoS services, and
eliminates conventional router bottlenecks.
It can be used to augment or completely replace slow legacy routers,
off-loading local IP traffic to release valuable resources for non-IP routing
or WAN access. With wire-speed performance for Layer 2, Layer 3 and
Layer 4, this switch can significantly improve the throughput between IP
segments or VLANs.
