D-Link DES-3624 Switch User Manual


 
Stackable NWay Ethernet Switch User’s Guide
Introduction 13
One slide-in module interface in the front panel for 1 or 2 ports 10/100M Ethernet connection. Three
optional modules are available: 2-port TX, 2-port FX (MT-RJ), and 1-port FX (SC).
Stacking Input/Output port slide-in module in the rear panel for stacking to another device to
implement a high-port count, manageable switch. Three-port module for master device and one-port
module for a client device.
Performance features
Store and forward switching scheme capability to support rate adaptation and protocol conversion.
Full- and half-duplex for 10Mbps and 100Mbps connections. The optional 1000BASE-SX and
1000BASE-LX modules operate at full-duplex only. The optional 1000BASE-T module, however, can be
negotiated to 1000M/half.
Auto polarity detection and correction of incorrect polarity on the receive twisted pair at each port.
Data forwarding rate 14,880 pps per port at 100% of wire-speed for 10Mbps speed.
Data forwarding rate 148,800 pps per port at 100% of wire-speed for 100Mbps speed.
Data forwarding rate 1,488,100 pps per port at 100% of wire-speed for 1000Mbps speed.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc. at 14,880 pps per port at 100% of wire-speed
for 10Mbps speed.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc. at 148,800 pps per port at 100% of wire-speed
for 100Mbps speed.
Data filtering rate eliminates all error packets, runts, etc. at 1,488,100 pps per port at 100% of wire-
speed for 1000Mbps speed.
12K active MAC address entry table per device with automatic learning and aging (10 to 9999 seconds).
12 MB packet buffer per device.
Supports Broadcast Storm filtering.
Supports IGMP Multicast snooping.
Management
RS-232 console port for out-of-band network management via a console terminal or PC.
Spanning Tree Algorithm Protocol for creation of alternative backup paths and prevention of indefinite
network loops.
Fully configurable either in-band or out-of-band control via SNMP based software.
Flash memory for software upgrade. This can be done in-band via BOOTP/TFTP. Out-of-band console
can also initiate a download request.
Built-in SNMP management: Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), RMON MIB (RFC 1757), and MIB-II (RFC 1213).
