Product Overview

The Cisco^® SGE2000P 24-Port Gigabit Switch (Figure 1) helps maximize system availability, with fully redundant stacking and dual images for resilient firmware upgrades. The switch helps secure the network through IEEE 802.1Q VLANs, IEEE 802.1X port authentication, access control lists (ACL), denial-of-service (DoS) prevention, and MAC-based filtering. The enhanced quality of service (QoS) and traffic-management features help ensure clear and reliable IP voice and video communications.

For wireless or voice over IP (VoIP) deployments, the Cisco SGE2000P supports the IEEE802.3af standard for Power over Ethernet (PoE). Automatic load sensing in the power control circuitry automatically detects PoE on the end device before providing power. For safety, each port has independent overload and short-circuit protection, along with LED indicators for power status. A maximum of 15.4W is available on the Fast Ethernet ports for powering PoE-enabled wireless access points or VoIP handsets, with a maximum per-device PoE delivery of 185W available for all ports.

The Cisco SGE2000P provides an intuitive, secure management interface, enabling network administrators to better utilize its comprehensive management feature set, for a better-optimized and more secure network.

Features

• Twenty-four 10/100/1000 Ethernet ports
• Four Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) slots (shared with four copper ports) for fiber Gigabit Ethernet expansion
• IEEE 802.3af PoE delivered over any of the twenty-four 10/100/1000 copper ports
• Up to 15.4W available on the copper ports for powering PoE-enabled wireless access points or VoIP handsets, with a maximum per-device PoE delivery of 185W available for all ports
• Dual images for resilient firmware upgrades
• 48-Gbps, nonblocking, store-and-forward switching capacity
• Simplified QoS management using 802.1p, Differentiated Services (DiffServ), or type of service (ToS) traffic prioritization specifications
• Fully resilient stacking for optimized growth with simplified management
• ACLs for granular security and QoS implementation
• Can be configured and monitored from a standard web browser
• Secure remote management of the switch via Secure Shell (SSH) and SSL encryption
• 802.1Q-based VLANs enable segmentation of networks for improved performance and security
• Private VLAN Edge (PVE) for simplified network isolation of guest connections or autonomous networks
• Automatic configuration of VLANs across multiple switches through Generic VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) and Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP)
• User/network port-level security via 802.1X authentication and MAC-based filtering
• Increased bandwidth and added link redundancy with Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP)
• Enhanced rate-limiting capabilities, including back pressure and multicast and broadcast flood control
• Port mirroring for noninvasive monitoring of switch traffic
• Jumbo frame support up to 10KB
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) versions 1, 2c, and 3 and Remote Monitoring (RMON) support
• Fully rack mountable using the included rack-mounting hardware

Accessing the device through console port

Step 1. Connect the switch to the computer through console port.

Step 2. Open Hyper Terminal on your computer.

Note: You will need to use third party Hyper Terminal software for Windows Vista because this software is not available anymore on this version.

Step 3. You can use any name and then choose the communication port you are using on the back of the computer.

Step 4. Set the serial port settings as follows

•Bits per second: 115200

•Data bits: 8

•Parity: None

•Stop bits: 1

•Flow control: None

Step 5. On the login screen type admin for the username and leave the password blank.

Step 6. Go to the System Mode tab for the device. By default the switch is set to Layer 3. You will need to set it to Layer 2 so you can use static IP address for the device.

Step 7. Save the settings and then go back to the System Configuration tab.

Step 8. Go to the IP address settings and then set the device to static IP address. After assigning the static IP address for the switch, save the settings.

Step 9. You may access the setup page for the switch now using your web browser. On your browser type http://192.168.1.254 and it will ask for the username and password. The default username is admin and leave the password blank.

Note: If you are using DHCP address for the switch, you may still be able to access the device through your browser. You will need to check the DHCP address assigned for the device from your DHCP server.
