EDS-828 Series User’s Manual Introduction
1-2
Overview
The EDS-828 is a high-performance Layer 3 Ethernet switch designed for network routing. The
improved hardware technology built into the EDS-828 replaces the software logic used by
traditional routers, offering better performance, and making the switch ideal for large scale local
area networks (LANs). In addition to Layer 3 features, the EDS-828 also supports Layer 2
management features, including QoS, IGMP snooping/GMRP, VLAN, LACP, SNMPv1/v2c/v3,
RMON, IEEE 802.1X, HTTPS, and SSH. In order to meet the demands of any industrial
application, the EDS-828 uses a modular design that allows users to install up to 4 Gigabit
Ethernet ports and 24 fast Ethernet ports, providing a high degree of flexibility for network
expansion.
