Page 31: Introduction
The default configuration can be used for most of the features provided by these switches. However, there are many options that you should configure to maximize the switch’s performance for your particular network environment. The 24 10/100 Mbps ports on the SMC6824MPE and SMC6826MPE also support the IEEE 802.3af Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) standard that...
Page 32: Description Of Software Features
Supports IGMP snooping and query * SMC6824MPE and SMC6826MPE only. Description of Software Features The switch provides a wide range of advanced performance enhancing features. Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks caused by port saturation. Broadcast storm suppression prevents broadcast traffic storms from engulfing the network.
Page 33: Management Features
IEEE 802.1X protocol. This protocol uses the Extensible Authentication Protocol over LANs (EAPOL) to request user credentials from the 802.1X client, and then uses the EAP between the switch and the authentication server to verify the client’s right to access the network via an authentication server (i.e., RADIUS server).
Page 34 Static Addresses – A static address can be assigned to a specific interface on this switch. Static addresses are bound to the assigned interface and will not be moved. When a static address is seen on another interface, the address will be ignored and will not be written to the address table.
Page 35 (CRC). This prevents bad frames from entering the network and wasting bandwidth. To avoid dropping frames on congested ports, the switch provides 8 MB for frame buffering. This buffer can queue packets awaiting transmission on congested networks.
Page 36 VLAN members from being segmented from the rest of the group (as sometimes occurs with IEEE 802.1D STP). Virtual LANs – The switch supports up to 255 VLANs. A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network.

Page 154: Access Control Lists
An ACL is a sequential list of permit or deny conditions that apply to IP addresses, MAC addresses, or other more specific criteria. This switch tests ingress or egress packets against the conditions in an ACL one by one. A packet will be accepted as soon as it matches a permit rule, or dropped as soon as it matches a deny rule.
Page 155: Setting The Acl Name And Type
• When an ACL is bound to an interface as an egress filter, all entries in the ACL must be deny rules. Otherwise, the bind operation will fail. • The switch does not support the explicit “deny any any” rule for the egress IP ACL or the egress MAC ACLs. If these rules are included in ACL, and you attempt to bind the ACL to an interface for egress checking, the bind operation will fail.

Once configured to supply power, an automatic detection process is initialized by the switch that is authenticated by a PoE signature from the connected device. Detection and authentication prevent damage to non-802.3af compliant devices.
Page 202: Switch Power Status
Ports can be set to one of three power priority levels, critical, high, or low. To control the power supply within the switch’s budget, ports set at critical or high priority have power enabled in preference to those ports set at low priority.

WITCH • If a device is connected to a critical or high-priority port and causes the switch to exceed its budget, port power is turned on, but the switch drops power to one or more lower-priority ports. Note: Power is dropped from low-priority ports in sequence starting from port number 1.
Page 207: Address Table Settings
Setting Static Addresses A static address can be assigned to a specific interface on this switch. Static addresses are bound to the assigned interface and will not be moved. When a static address is seen on another interface, the address will be ignored and will not be written to the address table.
Page 208: Displaying The Address Table
Displaying the Address Table The Dynamic Address Table contains the MAC addresses learned by monitoring the source address for traffic entering the switch. When the destination address for inbound traffic is found in the database, the packets intended for that address are forwarded directly to the associated port.

Page 211 • MSTP – Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (IEEE 802.1s) STA uses a distributed algorithm to select a bridging device (STA-compliant switch, bridge or router) that serves as the root of the spanning tree network. It selects a root port on each bridging device (except for the root device) which incurs the lowest path cost when forwarding a packet from that device to the root device.

Page 214 ONFIGURING THE WITCH • Priority – Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated port. The device with the highest priority (i.e., lower numeric value) becomes the STA root device. However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the root device.

Page 235: Vlan Configuration
IEEE 802.1Q VLANs In large networks, routers are used to isolate broadcast traffic for each subnet into separate domains. This switch provides a similar service at Layer 2 by using VLANs to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks.
Page 236: Assigning Ports To Vlans
VLAN Classification – When the switch receives a frame, it classifies the frame in one of two ways. If the frame is untagged, the switch assigns the frame to an associated VLAN (based on the default VLAN ID of the receiving port).
Page 237 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN protocol, it can be configured to broadcast a message to your network indicating the VLAN groups it wants to join. When this switch receives these messages, it will automatically place the receiving port in the specified VLANs, and then forward the message to all other ports.
Page 238: Forwarding Tagged/Untagged Frames
When forwarding a frame from this switch along a path that contains any VLAN-aware devices, the switch should include VLAN tags. When forwarding a frame from this switch along a path that does not contain any VLAN-aware devices (including the destination host), the switch must first strip off the VLAN tag before forwarding the frame.
Page 239: Enabling Or Disabling Gvrp (Global Setting)
However, when this switch receives an untagged frame from a VLAN-unaware device, it first decides where to forward the frame, and then inserts a VLAN tag reflecting the ingress port’s default VID. Enabling or Disabling GVRP (Global Setting)

WITCH Selecting the Queue Mode You can set the switch to service the queues based on a strict rule that requires all traffic in a higher priority queue to be processed before lower priority queues are serviced, or use Weighted Round-Robin (WRR) queuing that specifies a relative weight of each queue.
Page 263: Setting The Service Weight For Traffic Classes
Setting the Service Weight for Traffic Classes This switch uses the Weighted Round Robin (WRR) algorithm to determine the frequency at which it services each priority queue. As described in “Mapping CoS Values to Egress Queues” on page 3-204, the traffic classes are mapped to one of the four egress queues provided for each port.

Page 480 Cisco EtherChannel standard. For dynamic trunks, the switches have to comply with LACP. This switch supports up to six trunks. For example, a trunk consisting of two 1000 Mbps ports can support an aggregate bandwidth of 4 Gbps when operating at full duplex.
Page 481 Guidelines for Creating Trunks General Guidelines – • Finish configuring port trunks before you connect the corresponding network cables between switches to avoid creating a loop. • A trunk can have up to eight ports. • The ports at both ends of a connection must be configured as trunk ports.
Page 482: Link Aggregation Commands
• When configuring static trunks, the switches must comply with the Cisco EtherChannel standard. • Use no channel-group to remove a port group from a trunk. • Use no interfaces port-channel to remove a trunk from the switch. Example The following example creates trunk 1 and then adds port 11:...
Page 483 • A trunk formed with another switch using LACP will automatically be assigned the next available port-channel ID. • If the target switch has also enabled LACP on the connected ports, the trunk will be activated automatically. • If more than four ports attached to the same target switch have LACP enabled, the additional ports will be placed in standby mode, and will only be enabled if one of the active links fails.
Page 484: Lacp System-Priority
• Port must be configured with the same system priority to join the same LAG. • System priority is combined with the switch’s MAC address to form the LAG identifier. This identifier is used to indicate a specific LAG during LACP negotiations with other systems.
Page 485: Lacp Admin-Key (Ethernet Interface)
• Once the remote side of a link has been established, LACP operational settings are already in use on that side. Configuring LACP settings for the partner only applies to its administrative state, not its operational state, and will only take effect the next time an aggregate link is established with the partner.

Page 503: Spanning-Tree Default Priority
Global Configuration Command Usage IEEE 802.1D priority format cannot be used for a switch that is a member of an MIST. If you select 802.1D priority format for a bridge in this state, the system will return an error message.
Page 504: Spanning-Tree Pathcost Method
PANNING OMMANDS Default Setting 32768 Command Mode Global Configuration Command Usage Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated port. The device with the highest priority (i.e., lower numeric value) becomes the STA root device. However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the root device.
Page 505: Spanning-Tree Transmission-Limit
Command Usage The path cost method is used to determine the best path between devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports attached to faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with slower media. Note that path cost (page 4-212) takes precedence over port priority (page 4-221).
Page 506: Spanning-Tree Backup-Root
Command Usage This command will automatically lower the bridge priority of this device by 4096 if the switch loses contact with the current root bridge. For this command to succeed, the switch must have a direct connection to current root bridge, and its adjusted bridge priority must be higher (i.e., a numerically lower value) than all the other bridges in the spanning tree.
Page 507: Mst Vlan
• By default all VLANs are assigned to the Internal Spanning Tree (MSTI 0) that connects all bridges and LANs within the MST region. This switch supports up to 58 instances. You should try to group VLANs which cover the same general area of your network. However, remember...
Page 508: Mst Priority
MAC address will then become the root device. • You can set this switch to act as the MSTI root device by specifying a priority of 0, or as the MSTI alternate device by specifying a priority of 16384.
Page 509: Name
The MST region name and revision number (page 4-218) are used to designate a unique MST region. A bridge (i.e., spanning-tree compliant device such as this switch) can only belong to one MST region. And all bridges in the same region must be configured with the same MST instances.
Page 510: Revision
The MST region name (page 4-217) and revision number are used to designate a unique MST region. A bridge (i.e., spanning-tree compliant device such as this switch) can only belong to one MST region. And all bridges in the same region must be configured with the same MST instances.
Page 511: Spanning-Tree Spanning-Disabled
Default Setting Command Mode MST Configuration Command Usage An MSTI region is treated as a single node by the STP and RSTP protocols. Therefore, the message age for BPDUs inside an MSTI region is never changed. However, each spanning tree instance within a region, and the internal spanning tree (IST) that connects these instances use a hop count to specify the maximum number of bridges that will propagate a BPDU.

Page 513: Spanning-Tree Port-Priority
• This command defines the priority for the use of a port in the Spanning Tree Algorithm. If the path cost for all ports on a switch are the same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
Page 514: Spanning-Tree Portfast
PANNING OMMANDS Default Setting Disabled Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel) Command Usage • You can enable this option if an interface is attached to a LAN segment that is at the end of a bridged LAN or to an end node. Since end nodes cannot cause forwarding loops, they can pass directly through to the spanning tree forwarding state.
Page 515: Spanning-Tree Link-Type
Command Mode Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel) Command Usage • This command is used to enable/disable the fast spanning-tree mode for the selected port. In this mode, ports skip the Discarding and Learning states, and proceed straight to Forwarding. • Since end-nodes cannot cause forwarding loops, they can be passed through the spanning tree state changes more quickly than allowed by standard convergence time.
Page 516: Spanning-Tree Mst Cost
• When automatic detection is selected, the switch derives the link type from the duplex mode. A full-duplex interface is considered a point-to-point link, while a half-duplex interface is assumed to be on a shared link.

Page 518: Spanning-Tree Protocol-Migration
• This command defines the priority for the use of an interface in the multiple spanning-tree. If the path cost for all interfaces on a switch are the same, the interface with the highest priority (that is, lowest value) will be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
Page 519: Show Spanning-Tree
Command Usage If at any time the switch detects STP BPDUs, including Configuration or Topology Change Notification BPDUs, it will automatically set the selected interface to forced STP-compatible mode. However, you can also use the spanning-tree protocol-migration command at any time to manually re-check the appropriate BPDU format to send on the selected interfaces (i.e., RSTP or STP-compatible).

IGMP querier. Therefore, if the IGMP querier is a known multicast router/switch connected over the network to an interface (port or trunk) on your switch, you can manually configure that interface to join all the current multicast groups.
Page 571: Show Ip Igmp Snooping Mrouter
Example The following shows how to configure port 11 as a multicast router port within VLAN 1: Console(config)#ip igmp snooping vlan 1 mrouter ethernet 1/11 Console(config)# show ip igmp snooping mrouter This command displays information on statically configured and dynamically learned multicast router ports.
Page 572: Ip Interface Commands
OMMANDS IP Interface Commands An IP addresses may be used for management access to the switch over your network. The IP address for this switch is obtained via DHCP by default. You can manually configure a specific IP address, or direct the device to obtain an address from a BOOTP or DHCP server when it is powered on.
Page 573 Note: Only one VLAN interface can be assigned an IP address (the default is VLAN 1). This defines the management VLAN, the only VLAN through which you can gain management access to the switch. If you assign an IP address to any other VLAN, the new IP address overrides the original IP address and this becomes the new management VLAN.
Page 574: Ip Default-Gateway
IP I NTERFACE OMMANDS ip default-gateway This command establishes a static route between this switch and devices that exist on another network segment. Use the no form to remove the static route. Syntax ip default-gateway gateway no ip default-gateway gateway - IP address of the default gateway Default Setting No static route is established.

• size - Number of bytes in a packet. (Range: 32-512, default: 32) The actual packet size will be eight bytes larger than the size specified because the switch adds header information. Default Setting This command has no default for the host.
Page 577 • Following are some results of the ping command: - Normal response -The normal response occurs in one to ten seconds, depending on network traffic. - Destination does not respond - If the host does not respond, a “timeout” appears in ten seconds. - Destination unreachable - The gateway for this destination indicates that the destination is unreachable.
Page 578: Dns Commands
DNS C OMMANDS DNS Commands These commands are used to configure Domain Naming System (DNS) services. You can manually configure entries in the DNS domain name to IP address mapping table, configure default domain names, or specify one or more name servers to use for domain name to address translation. Note that domain name services will not be enabled until at least one name server is specified with the ip name-server command and domain lookup is enabled with the ip domain-lookup command.
Page 579: Ip Host
ip host This command creates a static entry in the DNS table that maps a host name to an IP address. Use the no form to remove an entry. Syntax [no] ip host name address1 [address2 … address8] • name - Name of the host. (Range: 1-255 characters) •...
Page 580: Clear Host
DNS C OMMANDS clear host This command deletes entries from the DNS table. Syntax clear host {name | *} • name - Name of the host. (Range: 1-255 characters) • * - Removes all entries. Default Setting None Command Mode Privileged Exec Example This example clears all static entries from the DNS table.
Page 581: Ip Domain-List
• Domain names are added to the end of the list one at a time. • When an incomplete host name is received by the DNS server on this switch, it will work through the domain list, appending each domain name in the list to the host name, and checking with the specified name servers for a match.
Page 582: Ip Name-Server
DNS C OMMANDS • If there is no domain list, the domain name specified with the ip domain-name command is used. If there is a domain list, the default domain name is not used. Example This example adds two domain names to the current list and then displays the list.
Page 583: Ip Domain-Lookup
Command Usage The listed name servers are queried in the specified sequence until a response is received, or the end of the list is reached with no response. Example This example adds two domain-name servers to the list and then displays the list.

• Be sure the management station has an IP address in the same subnet as the switch’s IP interface to which it is connected. • If you are trying to connect to the switch via the IP address for a tagged VLAN group, your management station, and the ports connecting intermediate switches in the network, must be configured with the appropriate tag.
Page 592 • Be sure you have generated a public key on the switch, and exported this key to the SSH client. • Be sure you have set up an account on the switch for each SSH user, including user name, authentication level, and password.
Page 593: Using System Logs
Using System Logs If a fault does occur, refer to the Installation Guide to ensure that the problem you encountered is actually caused by the switch. If the problem appears to be caused by the switch, follow these steps: 1. Enable logging.

ARP converts between IP addresses and MAC (i.e., hardware) addresses. ARP is used to locate the MAC address corresponding to a given IP address. This allows the switch to use IP addresses for routing decisions and the corresponding MAC addresses to forward packets from one hop to the next.
Page 596 EAPOL is a client authentication protocol used by this switch to verify the network access rights for any device that is plugged into the switch. A user name and password is requested by the switch, and then passed to an authentication server (e.g., RADIUS) for verification.
Page 597: Igmp Snooping
An IEEE standard for the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) which provides independent spanning trees for VLAN groups. IEEE 802.1X Port Authentication controls access to the SMC6824MPE switch ports by requiring users to first enter a user ID and password for authentication. IEEE 802.3ac Defines frame extensions for VLAN tagging.
Page 598: Igmp Query
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) A protocol through which hosts can register with their local router for multicast services. If there is more than one multicast switch/router on a given subnetwork, one of the devices is made the “querier” and assumes responsibility for keeping track of group membership.
Page 599: Link Aggregation
MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm A process whereby the switch filters incoming multicast frames for services for which no attached host has registered, or forwards them to all ports contained within the designated multicast VLAN group.
Page 600 A secure replacement for remote access functions, including Telnet. SSH can authenticate users with a cryptographic key, and encrypt data connections between management clients and the switch. Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) A standard host-to-host mail transport protocol that operates over TCP, port 25.
Page 601 Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) SNTP allows a device to set its internal clock based on periodic updates from a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server. Updates can be requested from a specific NTP server, or can be received via broadcasts sent by NTP servers. Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) A technology that checks your network for any loops.
Page 602 LOSSARY Virtual LAN (VLAN) A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network. A VLAN serves as a logical workgroup with no physical barriers, and allows users to share information and resources as though located on the same LAN.
