from other vendors. Additionally, the firmware includes advanced features such as IGMP snooping, broadcast storm
control, Access Control List and MAC address filtering, to enhance security and bandwidth utilization.
For efficient management, the FGSW Managed Switch is equipped with web interface. It can be programmed for
basic switch management functions such as port speed configuration, Port Trunking, Port-based VLAN, Port Mirroring,
QoS, bandwidth control, Access Control list and Misc Configuration.
The FGSW Managed Switch provides port-based VLAN (including overlapping) and 802.1Q tag-based VLAN. The
VLAN groups allowed on the Managed Swith will be maximally up to 26 for port-based VLAN. Via supporting port
trunking, it allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. The FGSW Managed Switch provides
13 groups of up to 8-ports for trunking and it supports fail-over as well.
