Managed TP-LINK switches are powerful network devices with full set of layer 2 management tools. With easy access to configuration functions, network traffic control becomes much simpler than before. Available management options include: command-line interface (CLI), telnet sessions, SNMP, management via web browser. These managed gigabit switches provide very high stability and efficiency of operations - the basic features required by network administrators. Reliable operation of the network is also supported by spanning tree protocol, QoS and robust security features.

• Supported STP/RSTP/MSTP protocols ensure stable network operation,
• Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) allows to bundle several ports (with load-balancing) to form a single logical channel of a greater bandwidth.

• Access control list ( ACL) prevents access to some network resources - by denying packets based on source and destination MAC address, IP address, TCP/UDP ports, VLAN ID;
• 802.1p protocol and port prioritization ensure smooth transmission of multimedia data;
• IGMP snooping allows to manage multicast traffic;
• Port mirroring allows easy monitoring of network traffic.

• Support for DHCP Snooping, IP Source Guard;
• Central management and authentication (IEEE 802.1x Port-based) for administrators of TACACS+ and RADIUS servers;
• Improved network security through the use of GARP/GVRP protocols for extensive virtual networks operating on the basis of 802.1Q VLAN standard;
• Guest VLAN feature enables unauthorized systems access to specified resources only;
• For the protection of Ethernet network from external attacks, the switch supports SSH and SSL protocols ensuring protection of the transmitted data.

• IP Clustering allows to manage several switches from a single IP address;
• Support of SNMP v1/v2/v3 with 4 RMON groups (1/2/3/9), which enables the switches to provide valuable status information and send traps on abnormal events;
• Convenient choice of management interface: command line interface (CLI), telnet sessions, or management through a web browser;
• VCT function allows to directly determine the performance of the network wiring.
