ES-2724 User’s Guide Preface Congratulations on your purchase of the ES-2724 Ethernet Switch. This preface introduces you to the ES-2724 Ethernet Switch and discusses the conventions of this User’s Guide. It also provides information on other related documentation. About This User's Guide This manual is designed to guide you through the installation and configuration of your switch for its various applications.
Help us help you. E-mail all User Guide-related comments, questions or suggestions for improvement to techwriters@zyxel.com.tw or send regular mail to The Technical Writing Team, ZyXEL Communications Corp., 6 Innovation Road II, Science-Based Industrial Park, Hsinchu, 300, Taiwan. Thank you.
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the switch. 1.1 Introduction The ES-2724 is a stand-alone layer 3 Ethernet switch with 24 10/100Mbps ports, two RJ-45 Gigabit ports for stacking and 2 GbE dual personality interfaces for uplink as well as a console port and a management port for local management.
ES-2724 User’s Guide 1.1.2 Bridging Example In this example application the switch connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the switch.
ES-2724 User’s Guide Figure 3 High Performance Switched Workgroup Application 1.1.4 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Examples A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks.

ES-2724 User’s Guide H A P T E R VLAN Stacking This chapter shows you how to configure VLAN stacking on your switch. See the chapter on VLANs for more background information on Virtual LAN 21.1 VLAN Stacking Overview A service provider can use VLAN stacking to allow it to distinguish multiple customers VLANs, even those with the same (customer-assigned) VLAN ID, within its network.
ES-2724 User’s Guide Figure 66 VLAN Stacking Example 21.2 VLAN Stacking Port Roles Each port can have three VLAN stacking “roles”, Normal, Access Port and Tunnel (the latter is for Gigabit ports only). • Select Normal for “regular” (non-VLAN stacking) IEEE 802.1Q frame switching.
ES-2724 User’s Guide Type is a standard Ethernet type code identifying the frame and indicates that whether the frame carries IEEE 802.1Q tag information. SP TPID (Service Provider Tag Protocol Identifier) is the service provider VLAN stacking tag type. Many vendors use 0x8100 or 0x9100.

ES-2724 User’s Guide H A P T E R Multicast This chapter shows you how to configure various multicast features. 22.1 Multicast Overview Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender to 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender to everybody on the network).
ES-2724 User’s Guide The switch forwards multicast traffic destined for multicast groups (that it has learned from IGMP snooping or that you have manually configured) to ports that are members of that group. IGMP snooping generates no additional network traffic, allowing you to significantly reduce multicast traffic passing through your switch.
ES-2724 User’s Guide Figure 69 Multicast: Setting The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 53 Multicast Setting LABEL DESCRIPTION IGMP Snooping Use these settings to configure IGMP Snooping.

ES-2724 User’s Guide Table 53 Multicast Setting (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Reserved Multicast addresses (224.0.0.0 to 224.0.0.255) are reserved for the local scope. Multicast Group For examples, 224.0.0.1 is for all hosts in this subnet, 224.0.0.2 is for all multicast routers in this subnet, etc. A router will not forward a packet with the destination IP address within this range.
ES-2724 User’s Guide 22.4 IGMP Filtering Profile IGMP filter profiles allow you to control access to IGMP multicast groups. This allows you to have a service available to a specific IGMP multicast group. You can configure an IGMP filter profile for an IGMP multicast group that has access to a service (like a SIP server for example).
ES-2724 User’s Guide Table 54 Multicast: IGMP Filtering Profile (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Delete To delete the profile(s) and all the accompanying rules, select the profile(s) that you want to remove in the Delete Profile column, then click the Delete button.
ES-2724 User’s Guide In dynamic mode, the switch sends IGMP leave and join reports to the other multicast devices (such as multicast routers or servers) in the multicast VLAN. This allows the multicast devices to update the multicast forwarding table to forward or not forward multicast traffic to the receiver ports.
