Each model provides 24 or 8 gigabit RJ45 ports plus uplinks via SFP or SFP+ modules, enabling high‑speed access network switch deployments.
VLAN, QoS & Multicast Support
Supports 4K VLANs (802.1Q, QinQ), port/trunk VLANs, ACLs, IGMP snooping (v1/2/3), and extensive QoS (802.1p, DSCP, TOS, TCP/UDP).
Layer 2 Security Suite
Features include port security, MAC/IP binding, ARP inspection, DHCP snooping, DoS protection, BPDU guard, and anomalous traffic suppression .
High Availability & Aggregation
STP/RSTP/MSTP, RLDP, ERPS, LACP, and static trunking ensure network resiliency and redundancy.
Energy Efficiency & Silent Operation
802.3az EEE support, intelligent fan control, and low power draw (~40 W) help reduce OPEX.
Cloud & Local Management

Deployment & Management Experience
- Zero-Touch Provisioning (ZTP): Auto-enrollment to Ruijie Cloud reduces manual setup.
- Robust Security: MAC/IP binding, DHCP/ARP snooping, and ACLs protect access layer devices.
- Stable Multicast Delivery: IGMP snooping ensures reliable multicast streaming.
- High Redundancy: Rapid recovery via ERPS and RLDP supports mission-critical workgroups.
- Low OpEx: Automated green features cut energy costs, while cloud visibility lowers management overhead.
CLI Examples for RG-S2300 Series
Configure Native VLAN on a Trunk Port
Useful for carrying untagged traffic (e.g., voice or management VLANs).
Ruijie# configure terminal
Ruijie(config)# interface gigabitEthernet0/1
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/1)# switchport mode trunk
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/1)# switchport trunk native vlan 10
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/1)# exit
Ruijie# write
This sets VLAN 10 as native on Gi0/1.
Static Link Aggregation (LAG)
Aggregates multiple ports into a logical trunk (e.g., to uplink switches).
Ruijie# enable
Ruijie# config
Ruijie(config)# interface range gigabitEthernet0/1-3
Ruijie(config-if-range)# port-group 1
Ruijie(config-if-range)# exit
Ruijie(config)# interface aggregateport 1
Ruijie(config-if-AggregatePort1)# switchport mode trunk
Ruijie(config-if-AggregatePort1)# exit
Ruijie# write
Groups Gi0/1–3 into LAG 1 as a trunk.
Configure VLAN Mapping
Useful when translating between private and public VLANs (e.g., FTTH scenarios):
Ruijie# configure terminal
Ruijie(config)# vlan range 10 12
Ruijie(config)# vlan range 100 102
Ruijie(config)# vlan range 200 202
Ruijie(config)# interface gigabitEthernet0/2
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# switchport mode uplink
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 10 remark 100
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 11 remark 101
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 12 remark 102
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 100 remark 10
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 101 remark 11
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 102 remark 12
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/2)# exit
Ruijie(config)# interface gigabitEthernet0/3
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# switchport mode uplink
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 10 remark 200
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 11 remark 201
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-in vlan 12 remark 202
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 200 remark 10
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 201 remark 11
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# vlan-mapping-out vlan 202 remark 12
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/3)# exit
Ruijie(config)# interface gigabitEthernet0/1
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/1)# switchport mode uplink
Ruijie(config-if-GigabitEthernet0/1)# exit
Ruijie# show interfaces vlan-mapping
This enables one-to-one VLAN translations on uplink ports.
Enable SSH Management Access
Secure remote access to switch CLI.
Ruijie# configure terminal
Ruijie(config)# enable service ssh-server
Ruijie(config)# crypto key generate dsa
... (generate 512-bit key)
Ruijie(config)# interface vlan 1
Ruijie(config-if-Vlan1)# ip address 192.168.1.1 255.255.255.0
Ruijie(config-if-Vlan1)# exit
Ruijie(config)# line vty 0 4
Ruijie(config-line)# login local
Ruijie(config-line)# exit
Ruijie(config)# username admin password <strong>
Ruijie(config)# enable password <strong>
Ruijie# write

No—these are non-PoE models. Consider the S5300-E series for PoE needs.
Q4: How do I secure the access layer?
Use DHCP snooping, ARP inspection, MAC/IP binding, BPDU guard, and ACLs to prevent unauthorized access and spoofing.
Q5: What multicast scenarios are covered?
IGMP (v1/2/3) snooping supports IPTV and CCTV multicast streams efficiently.
Q6: Can the switch survive power outages?
It supports dual power (with optional PSUs) and intelligent recovery, minimizing downtime.
Q7: How many VLANs and MACs can it manage?
Supports up to 4K VLANs and 16K MAC address entries, sufficient for mid-size enterprise access segments.
