Description
Advanced Security Features
The SG110-16 Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet switch is a small business switch that offers advanced security features to protect your network from external threats.
One of the key security features of the switch is its support for Network Access Control (NAC) which allows you to control access to your network based on the security posture of the connecting device. This feature can prevent devices that do not meet your network’s security standards from connecting to the network, which helps to protect your network from malware and other threats.
The switch also supports Access Control Lists (ACLs) that can be used to filter traffic based on various criteria, such as source and destination IP addresses and ports. This feature can be used to block unwanted traffic, such as traffic from known malicious sources, and to restrict access to sensitive network resources.
The switch also supports advanced threat defense features such as DHCP Snooping and ARP Inspection, which can help to protect your network from various types of attacks, such as DHCP spoofing and ARP poisoning.
The switch also supports advanced security features such as port security and IEEE 802.1x, which can be used to authenticate devices that connect to the switch and to limit the number of MAC addresses that can be associated with a given port.
Additionally, the switch supports advanced security features such as Quality of Service (QoS) which can be used to prioritize critical network traffic and to ensure that bandwidth-intensive applications do not consume all the available bandwidth.
Network Scalability and Flexibility
The SG110-16 Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet switch is designed to provide network scalability and flexibility to small businesses.
One of the key features that allows for scalability is the support for VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks). VLANs allow for the creation of multiple virtual networks on a single physical infrastructure, which allows for better utilization of network resources and increased security. The switch supports up to 64 VLANs, allowing for a large number of virtual networks to be created.
The switch also supports Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) and Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP) which allow multiple physical ports to be combined into a single logical link to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy. This feature allows for increased scalability by allowing for more devices to be connected to the network without the need for additional switches.
The switch also supports Quality of Service (QoS) which allows for the prioritization of critical network traffic, such as voice and video, to ensure that these types of traffic are not impacted by other, less critical traffic.
In terms of management and monitoring, the switch is designed to be easy to use and manage. It supports the Cisco Smartports feature, which allows for the configuration of switch ports based on the type of device that is connected to them. This feature allows for the switch to be configured quickly and easily, without the need for extensive knowledge of switch configuration.
Additionally, the switch supports the Cisco Network Assistant which is a free, easy-to-use management software that simplifies the deployment, management, and troubleshooting of Cisco switches, routers, and wireless access points.
Management and Monitoring Options
The SG110-16 Cisco 16 Ports Ethernet Switch offers a variety of management and monitoring options to help users easily manage and monitor their network.
One of the key management features of the switch is the Cisco Smartports feature, which allows for the configuration of switch ports based on the type of device that is connected to them. This feature allows for the switch to be configured quickly and easily, without the need for extensive knowledge of switch configuration.
The switch also supports the Cisco Network Assistant (CNA) which is a free, easy-to-use management software that simplifies the deployment, management, and troubleshooting of Cisco switches, routers, and wireless access points. CNA provides a graphical user interface that allows users to easily configure, monitor, and troubleshoot their network, and can be used to manage multiple switches.
In terms of monitoring, the switch supports a variety of different monitoring tools and protocols such as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), syslog, and Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP). These tools allow for the monitoring of switch performance, including information about switch uptime, port status, and error conditions.
Additionally, the switch also supports the Cisco EnergyWise technology that helps to reduce energy consumption by monitoring the power usage of connected devices and taking actions to reduce power consumption when necessary.
