Of course, you need to know what the endpoints require because you can also impede traffic with this feature.
Enabling this feature can save you time troubleshooting network traffic. By controlling the number of packets entering the switch, you eliminate bottlenecks and guarantee service across your endpoints. One of the best features is the broadcast storm, which allows you to control the bandwidth coming into the switch. I like that the SMCGS8P-Smart gives you enough information to manage your network without overwhelming you with complex configurations.

The SMCGS8P-Smart supports SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol), which lets you view status information on port traffic by simply trapping its traffic, through the SNMP port, and passing it to a PC you set up to manage your network. You get a status of all active ports as soon as you log on to the user interface, and you can get more information (port ID, management address) about devices connected to the switch through a LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) feature. One word of caution, however: Many of the advanced features in the switch will require some knowledge of networking. You'll appreciate this simplicity once you begin working with its management features. In this case, SMC means the SMCGS8P-Smart has the simplicity of an unmanaged switch but includes some key features, such as trunking, quality of service, and diagnostics. SMC doesn't throw the word "smart" around often-this is one of only three switches deemed "smart" in SMC's entire product line.
