5. Fundamental Management with QoS, VLAN, IGMP, IEEE

 

• VLANs for security and cost-saving

By segregating your networks without buying separate equipment for each, you can create virtual boundaries around business units via the smart switch to slow down or stop attacks for higher security.

 

• QoS for smooth internet-surfing

Advanced QoS prioritize critical business traffic, offering a lag-free network experience.

 

• IGMP for network efficiency

IGMP dynamically configures switch ports so that multicast traffic is forwarded only to devices associated with the appropriate receiver, improving network performance by reducing flooding.

FS Client Reviews:

"I bought it for the 802.1Q VLAN switching... I've separated my home networks between work (I work from home), users (family), home-automation, LoT (untrusted appliances... like security DVRs and home assistants), and Management (network management). For a home VLAN setup I'm quite happy with these switches... "

"Easy to install. You can't hear it. It has the appearance of being robust. It also has an IGMP protocol, essential if you are going to hook up a TV with SmartTV or an Orange or Movistar encoder. "

6. IEEE for Energy Saving & Environmental Protection

The S2800S supports IEEE 802.3AZ and helps you save power and cost by autonomously connecting to detect the status of devices or the length of cable connecting the ports.

FS Client Reviews:

"It is recommended to use this feature. In addition, green Ethernet's power-saving feature automatically identifies whether my device has traffic transmission if it is off; it will automatically close the idle port to save energy and high energy efficiency, reducing the impact on the environment."
