TP-LINK TL-SG3424P User Manual
Chapter 2 Introduction
Thanks for choosing the TL-SG3424P JetStream L2 Managed PoE Switch!
2.1 Overview of the Switch
Designed for workgroups and departments, TL-SG3424P from TP-LINK provides wire-speed
performance and abundant layer 2 management features. It provides a variety of service features
and multiple powerful functions with high security.
performance and abundant layer 2 management features. It provides a variety of service features
and multiple powerful functions with high security.
The EIA-standardized framework and smart configuration capacity can provide flexible solutions
for a variable scale of networks. ACL, 802.1x and Dynamic ARP Inspection provide robust security
strategies. QoS and IGMP snooping/filtering optimize voice and video application. Link
aggregation (LACP) increases aggregated bandwidth, optimizing the transport of business critical
data. SNMP, RMON, WEB/CLI/Telnet Log-in bring abundant management policies. TL-SG3424P
JetStream L2 Managed PoE Switch is also a Power Sourcing Equipment. All the Auto-Negotiation
RJ45 ports on the switch support Power over Ethernet function, which can automatically detect
and supply power with those powered devices complying with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at.

business critical data.
business critical data.
+ IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree provides high link availability in multiple VLAN
environments.
environments.
+ Multicast snooping automatically prevents flooding of IP multicast traffic.
+ Root Guard protects root bridge from malicious attack or configuration mistakes
• Layer 2 Switching
+ GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) allows automatic learning and dynamic
assignment of VLANs.
assignment of VLANs.
+ Supports up to 4K VLANs simultaneously (out of 4K VLAN IDs).
• Quality of Service
+ Supports L2/L3 granular CoS with 4 priority queues per port.
+ Rate limiting confines the traffic flow accurately according to the preset value.
• Security
+ Supports multiple industry standard user authentication methods such as 802.1x, RADIUS.
+ Dynamic ARP Inspection blocks ARP packets from unauthorized hosts, preventing
man-in-the-middle attacks.
man-in-the-middle attacks.
+ L2/L3/L4 Access Control Lists restrict untrusted access to the protected resource.
+ Provides SSHv1/v2, SSL 2.0/3.0 and TLS v1 for access encryption.
• Manageability
+ IP Clustering provides high scalability and easy Single-IP-Management.
