Introduction
This guide provides the information you need to

24 Port (3C16900A) and the SuperStack II Switch

The functionality of both units is identical, although
the local management screens reflect the different
number of ports. Where appropriate, these differ-
ences are noted.
The guide is intended for use by network adminis-
trators who are responsible for installing and set-
ting up network equipment; consequently, it
