1.2 VRTX 1GbE Switch Module (R1-2401)

The VRTX 1GbE Switch Module, model R1-2401, is a layer 2 switch that supports

10/100/1000 Mb Ethernet. Both the switch GUI and switch CLI provide access for configuring

the switch. The Out-of-Band (OOB) management IP must be on a different IP subnet than the

subnets defined on all of the other switch interfaces (port, VLAN). All internal ports (gi 1/1 – gi

4/4) communicate together as if plugged into a rack switch, supporting east-west traffic and

north-south traffic. The external ports allow communication to any upstream device on the

network as if the ports were typical switching/bridging devices. Figure 4 and Figure 5 show

the switch port mapping for the VRTX Gb switch.
