Yes, in it's default configuration it behaves like an all open switch, all data is associated internally with the VLAN 1.
One notable difference is (when I have it right) is that the Spanning Tree (STP, or the compatible RSTP) protocol is enabled by default. Please double check it's really RSRP active, because of he legacy STP (some 25 years+) old industry requires much more time after fixing loops. RSTP re-establishes the network connectivity on less than one second.
Hope you realize there is a lot of technology in such a "simple" switch - for reasons the documentation does span over several hundred pages.
