	Additional Information	Forwarding modes: Store-and-forward Robust: The GSM7324 provides powerful, high-performance data routing and forwarding via 24 auto-sensing, auto-negotiating, Gigabit Ethernet ports. 24 ports are copper Gigabit Ethernet, with four ports offering optional hot-swappable SFP slots, enabling fiber connections. EasierNetwork Management: The GSM7324 is simple to set up and use, with an intuitive browser interface for easy configuration. Choose from two management interface options - an easy-to-follow, browser-based interface, and a command line interface, available through console or Telnet. Configuration files can be loaded and saved using TFTP, reducing the need for on-site administration. Versatile: A comprehensive set of Layer 3 features provides strong functionality in any network. For example, RIP routing for smaller networks and OSPF2 routing for larger, more complex networks. The GSM7324 helps maximize your network capabilities - and your return on investment. Cost-Effective: Moderately priced to boost your network throughput without blowing your budget. Designed in a 1U form factor, this complete package comes equipped with a rack-mounting kit, terminal cable, and power cord.
