Introduction
Welcome
This guide covers three product models.
SRW2008 • 8-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet Switch with
WebView. Includes 8 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2
shared MiniGBIC slots.
SRW2008MP • 8-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet Switch
with WebView and Maximum POE (Power over
Ethernet) Includes 8 10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2
shared MiniGBIC slots.
SRW2008P • 8-port 10/100/1000 Ethernet Switch with
WebView and POE (Power over Ethernet) Includes 8
10/100/1000 RJ-45 ports and 2 shared MiniGBIC slots.
For the purpose of this manual, whenever a feature applies
to all models, the model number will be referenced as
SRW2008x. 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 Spanning Tree, and Rapid Spanning Tree
(RSTP) allow 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.
The SRW2008P and SRW2008MP support Automatic Load
Sensing - Power control circuitry automatically detects
Power over Ethernet on access point before providing
power. Power feeding of Ethernet limited for fixed
10/100 Base-T/TX ports. The SRW2008MP can provide
maximum output power per PoE port up to 15.4W on 8
ports simultaneously. while the SRW2008P can provide
maximum output power on 4 ports simultaneously or 8
ports at half power.
