What is the difference between a managed switch and an unmanaged switch?
Anyone familiar with local area networks should know that the switch shoulders the burden of data transmission in the network. If there is no switch, the website cannot be logged in, and people will not be able to access the Internet. At present, switches in the market can be divided into network-managed switches and non-network-managed switches. How much do you know about these two types of switches? What is the difference between the two? How should we choose? This article will take stock of some of the most frequently asked questions about managed and unmanaged switches.
1. What is a network management switch?
Network management switches mainly perform functions such as monitoring switch ports, dividing VLANs, and setting trunk ports through the management port. Because the network management switch has features such as VLAN, CLI, SNMP, IP routing, and QoS, it is often used at the core layer of the network, especially in large and complex data centers.
2. What is an unmanaged switch?
An unmanaged switch is a plug-and-play Ethernet switch that does not directly process data. Because the non-network management switch does not require any settings, it can be used by plugging in the network cable, and it is also called a fool switch.
3. The difference between network managed switches and unmanaged switches
Whether it is a network-managed switch or a non-network-managed switch, they are used for network port expansion and data exchange, but the network-managed switch adds a series of management functions on this basis. The network-managed switch supports configuration, which can be realized through configuration changes. For network control, such as priority, flow control and ACL, etc., non-network management switches do not support configuration changes, so its functions are not as rich as network management switches. Not only that, the network management switch also has the advantages of large backplane bandwidth, large data throughput, low packet loss rate, low delay, and flexible networking. Higher for switches.
4. How to choose between network managed switches and non-network managed switches?
To ensure the smooth operation of the entire network system, it is very important to choose a suitable switch, so how to choose between network managed switches and non-network managed switches? You can consider it from two aspects: network environment and cost:
In complex data centers and large enterprise networks, the network needs to continuously transmit a large amount of data. At this time, the switch has to undertake the transmission and management of thousands of data traffic. In this case, it is very wise to choose a network management switch. Because the network management switch can detect and manage network devices and user control and management according to the devices and users on the switch.
In simple network environments such as small offices and homes, complex management functions are not required, so unmanaged switches can be selected, because the price of unmanaged switches is cheaper and more affordable than network managed switches.
