Allied Telesis AT-8324 - Manual (Page 7)

1
The AT-8316F and the AT-8324 Ethernet switches offer Ethernet, Fast
Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity over fiber optic or twisted pair
cabling. The systems come pre-installed with the AT-S25 software and the
menu-based Omega management program, which simplifies switch
configuration and network management.
You can install the switches as standalone units or you can interconnect the
switches together to form a logical switch. A logical switch, also referred to as
a stack, simplifies network management because you can manage all of the
switches in a stack as one unit.
Note
For information on site requirements, switch stacks, cabling
specifications, network topologies, and other installation
information, refer to the AT-8316F/MT, AT-8316F/VF,
AT-8316F/SC, and AT-8324 Installation Guide. This guide is
