Overview
SMC’s TigerSwitch
™
10/100 (SMC6724AL2) contains 24 10BASE-T /
100BASE-TX (RJ-45) ports plus two slots on the front panel for slide-in
modules (100BASE-FX or 1000BASE-X/T). 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 provides a broad range of powerful features for Layer 2
switching, delivering reliability and consistent performance for your
network traffic. It brings order to poorly performing networks by
segregating them into separate broadcast domains with IEEE 802.1Q
compliant VLANs, and empowers multimedia applications with multicast
switching and CoS services.
