Linksys SRW208 User Manual

Growing businesses require cost-effective, networking solutions that can scale with 
ever changing business needs. The Linksys SRW208 WebView managed switch brings 
a whole new level of intelligence and security to the network infrastructure.  The 
combination of its intelligence and small size make it ideal for a conference room or 
training room where security and uptime are important.

Network security is a top priority in any size business.  Most business data networks, 
large and small, are unsecured.  Unauthorized access to the network and mission critical 
data is a constant concern.  The SRW208 is able to secure the network through 802.1X 
port authentication and MAC Filtering.  802.1X requires client to authenticate themselves 
before the port will pass data.

Businesses are recognizing the benefits of doing Voice over IP (VoIP) and are quickly 
migrating their voice services to IP based platforms, requiring their local area networks to 
support both voice and data applications.   In unmanaged IP networks, bursty data sessions 
can disrupt voice packet delivery, causing poor voice quality.  With the enhanced QoS and 
traffic management features in the SRW208, voice data can be prioritized, ensuring clear and 
reliable voice communications.

Enabling the SRW208 advanced features further secures the integrity of your network. The 
WebView interface provides an intuitive, secure management interface enabling you to better 
utilize the comprehensive feature-set of the switch, resulting in a better optimized, more secure 
network.

Simplified, web based user 
management for more 
intelligent networking.

802.1x port authentication 
and MAC address filtering 
brings network security 
down to the switch port 
level.

Advance QoS enables the 
network to be optimized 
for your networked 
applications, including 
voice, video and data 
storage.

Rate limiting, policing, 
shaping, and multicast 
support provide advanced 
traffic management.
