ES-2008 Series

8-port Managed Layer 2 Fast Ethernet Switch



ZyXEL's ES-2008 is a managed layer 2 non-blocking switch for workgroups, building applications or access applications. It is equipped with eight 10/100Mbps ports and one uplink module for easily connecting workgroups and apartments to metropolitan fiber networks with a minimal initial investment. The uplink options include 1000Base-T, 100FX multi-mode fiber, and 100FX single-mode fiber interfaces.

Its advanced features, such as IGMP snooping, broadcast storm control, MAC address filtering, Virtual LAN, enhanced security and bandwidth utilization fit a variety of applications. Additionally, its standard-compliant implementation ensures interoperability with equipment from other vendors.

With its built-in Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and web-based management, the ES-2008 offers an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and configuration facility. For text-based management, the ES-2008 can also be accessed via Telnet and the console port.

Benefits

Port Trunking Provides Higher Availability
The ES-2008 supports IEEE 802.1ad with load distribution control and fail over recovery. It supports up to 4 groups with each group aggregating traffic from 1 to 8 ports. The ES-2008 distributes traffic to each trunk port based on MAC address, and thus balances the traffic load.

VLAN Offers Both Security and Performance
The VLAN feature in the ES-2008 offers the benefits of both security and performance. VLAN is used to isolate traffic between different users and thus provides better security. Performance is also enhanced by limiting the broadcast traffic to the same VLAN broadcast domain.

Port Mirroring Achieves a Better Network Monitoring
Port mirror copies traffic from a specific port to a target port. This mechanism helps track network errors or abnormal packet transmission without interrupting the flow of data across the network.

Multicasting and Broadcast Storm Control Optimize Bandwidth Utilization
The IGMP snooping feature reduces multicast traffic and optimizes bandwidth utilization for bandwidth-consuming applications such as broadcast video. The per-port broadcast storm control allows a user-defined threshold to limit broadcast traffic and avoid degrading overall system performance.

Access Control Enhances Network Security
The ES-2008 supports port-based access control for subscriber authentication and allows system administrators to define a limited number of MAC addresses that can access the network from a particular port. This feature denies access of unauthorized devices to communicate through the switch, thus highly enhancing the network security.
