DES-3526 / DES-3526DC Fast Ethernet Layer 2 Switch
2
This stand-alone Switch enables the network to use some of the most demanding multimedia and
imaging applications concurrently with other user applications without creating bottlenecks. The built-
in console interface can be used to configure the Switch's settings for priority queuing, VLANs, and
port trunk groups, port monitoring, and port speed.
NOTE: For the remainder of this manual both hardware versions of the Switch,
the DES-3526 and DES-3526DC will be referred to as simply the Switch or the
DES-3526 except where the differences are relevant.

Protocol support.
• IEEE 802.1x Port-based and MAC-based
Access Control
• IEEE 802.1Q VLAN
• IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree, IEEE 802.1W
Rapid Spanning Tree and IEEE 802.1s

• Asymmetric VLAN support
• System and Port Utilization support
• System Log Support
• Support port-based enable and disable
• Address table: Supports up to 8K MAC
addresses per device
• Supports a packet buffer of up to 3 Mbits
• Supports Port-based VLAN Groups
• Port Trunking with flexible load distribution
and fail-over function
• IGMP Snooping support
• SNMP support
• Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) and Secure Shell
(SSH) support
• Port Mirroring support
• MIB support for:
• RFC1213 MIB II
• RFC1493 Bridge
• RFC1757 RMON
• RFC1643 Ether-like MIB
• RFC2233 Interface MIB
• Private MIB
• RFC2674 for 802.1p
• IEEE 802.1x MIB
• RS-232 DCE console port for Switch
management
• Provides parallel LED display for port status
such as link/act, speed, etc.
• High performance switching engine performs forwarding and filtering at full wire speed, maximum 14, 881
packets/sec on each 10Mbps Ethernet port, and maximum 148,810 packet/sec on 100Mbps Fast Ethernet port.
• Full- and half-duplex for both 10Mbps and 100Mbps connections. Full duplex allows the switch port to
simultaneously transmit and receive data. It only works with connections to full-duplex-capable end stations and
switches. Connections to a hub must take place at half-duplex
• Support broadcast storm filtering
• Non-blocking store and forward switching scheme capability to support rate adaptation and protocol conversion
• Supports by-port Egress/Ingress rate control.
