Compaq Netelligent 5226A User Manual

BENEFITS AT
A GLANCE

• VLAN allows users to

configure useful VLAN
environments from the
perspective of broadcast
control, network
segmentation and network
security issues

• Remote monitoring

(RMON) gives the
management system the
capability to remotely
monitor the switch for
diagnostic purposes

• Multiple high-speed uplink

ports provide high-speed
connections (TX and/or
FX) to backbones, servers,
or other 100 Mb/s devices

• 10/100Base-TX ports are

dual speed and auto­sensing to provide
flexibility in connectivity

• ASIC-based design means

that switching instructions
are implemented in
hardware rather than
firmware—providing
higher performance,
reliability and lower cost

• Full duplex support on

every port increases
network transfer rates up to
20 Mb/s on 10Base-T ports
and 200 Mb/s on 100Base­TX and 100Base-FX ports

• VT-100 serial port/Telnet

Management for managing
the switch over the LAN or
via the Internet

• Spanning Tree support

allows set up of redundant
links for maximum up-time

• Netelligent Management

Software is included to
help users manage their
network

• Three-year limited

warranty

.

.

Performance Leader

.

.

.

Compaq sets the standard for simple, cost-effective

.

.

.

.

Ethernet switching. The Netelligent 5226A Ethernet

.

.

.

.

Switch is the ideal networking device for workgroup

.

.

.

environments that need expansion or improved

.

.

.

.

performance.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Performance by Design

.

.

.

.

The Compaq developed Application Specific

.

.

.

.

Integrated Circuit (ASIC) of the Netelligent 5226A

.

.

.

Ethernet Switch provides high-end performance in

.

.

.

.

workgroup environments. The Netelligent 5226A is

.

.

.

.

full duplex capable, providing a total of 1.05 Gb/s

.

.

.

throughput for day-to-day usage or critical

.

.

.

.

applications.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Flexibility

.

.

.

.

The Netelligent 5226A Ethernet Switch provides

.

.

.

.

flexibility in network design and switch placement.

.

.

.

24 10Base-T ports provide downstream connectivity

.

.

.

.

to hubs, PCs, or other switches. Two fixed

.

.

.

.

10/100Base-TX ports provide high-speed uplinks to

.

.

.

backbones and server farms. An optional uplink

.

.

.

.

module offers two additional Fast Ethernet ports –

.

.

.

.

10/100Base-TX or 100Base-FX. The 10/100Base-TX

.

.

.

ports (both fixed and modular) have full auto-

.

.

.

.

negotiation capabilities for full or half duplex. The

.

.

.

.

10Base-T and 100Base-FX ports are configurable in

.

.

.

full or half duplex mode.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Manageability

.

.

.

The Netelligent 5226A provides sophisticated

.

.

.

.

SNMP, RMON (groups 1, 2, 3, and 9), RMON probe

.

.

.

.

support and port-level VLAN as standard

.

.

.

management features. Utilizing the on-board

.

.

.

.

management engine, the Netelligent 5226A provides

.

.

.

.

both in-band management (through any Ethernet

.

.

.

port) and out-of-band management (through the

.

.

.

.

RS232 port). The Netelligent 5226A switch includes

.

.

.

.

Compaq Netelligent Management Software (CNMS),

.

.

.

so the user can immediately configure the switch, get

.

.

.

.

detailed port-level information or graph performance

.

.

.

statistics.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

.

Remote Management via the Web

.

.

.

CNMS includes a SNMP proxy Web-based

.

.

.

.

management tool. This HTML-based application is

.

.

.

.

used in conjunction with CNMS to provide an easy to

.

.

.

use and flexible network management platform. The

.

.

.

.

Web browser interface provides such capabilities as

.

.

.

.

device-level management and configuration, map

.

.

.

data, BootP and TFTP services and event log

.

.

.
