CHAPTER 3 CONFIGURATION This chapter explains the methods that you can use to configure management access to the Switch. It describes the types of management applications and the communication and management protocols that deliver data between your management device (workstation or personal computer) and the system. It also contains information about port connection options.

Page 25: Modem Port Access
3.1.3 Modem Port Access You can access the Switch’s administration console from a PC or Macintosh using an external modem attached to the console (serial) port. The Switch management program provides a Console Port screen, accessible from the Basic Management screen, that lets you configure parameters for modem access (see Chapter 4 Menu-Driven Console Management).
Page 26: Snmp-Based Network Management
3.3 SNMP-Based Network Management You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Switch. This management method requires the SNMP agent on the Switch and the SNMP Network Management Station to use the same community string. This management method, in fact, uses two community strings: the get community string and the set community string.
Page 27: Management Architecture
3.4.3 Management Architecture All of the management application modules use the same Messaging Application Programming Interface (MAPI). By unifying management methods with a single MAPI, configuration parameters set using one method (console port, for example) are immediately displayable by the other management methods (for example, SNMP agent of Web browser).

Page 92 The RIP protocol is the most widely used routing protocol. The RIP protocol uses a distance vector-based approach to routing. Routes are determined on the basis of minimizing the distance vector, or hop count, which serves as a rough estimate of transmission cost. Each router broadcasts its advertisement every 30 seconds, together with any updates to its routing table.

Above tables also show that different types of applications may be placed in different boxes in the traffic table.
Page 161: Delay Bound
In the fourth profile mode, all queues are served using a WFQ service discipline. 5.15.1.3 Delay Bound In the absence of a sophisticated QoS server and signaling protocol, the Switch may not know the mix of incoming traffic ahead of time. To cope with this uncertainty, the delay assurance algorithm dynamically adjusts its scheduling and dropping criteria, guided by the queue occupancies and the due dates of their head-of-line (HOL) frames.
Page 162: Weighted Fair Queuing
5.15.1.5 Weighted Fair Queuing In some environments – for example, in an environment in which delay assurances are not required, but precise bandwidth partitioning on small time scales is essential, WFQ may be preferable to a delay-bounded scheduling discipline. The Switch provides the user with a WFQ option with the understanding that delay assurances can not be provided if the incoming traffic pattern is uncontrolled.

Page 273: Appendix B Example Of Stacking Switches
Appendix B Example of Stacking Switches There are 5 switches to be stacked together. Routing function between VLANs is not required. The Switches from top to down are A~E. Switch Configuration Remark Switch ID=4, Stack ID=1, Stack port = 25, Stack size=5 No IP for all VLANs Switch ID=2, Stack ID=1, Stack port = 25, 26, Stack size=5 No IP for all VLANs...

Page 275: Appendix C Vlan
Appendix C VLAN Switches do not inherently support broadcast domains, which can lead to broadcast storms in large networks that handle a lot of traffic such as NetBUEI or IPX. In conventional networks with routers, broadcast traffic is split up into separate domains to confine this traffic to the originating group and provide a much cleaner network environment.
Page 276: Assigning Ports To Vlans
C.1 Assigning Ports to VLANs Before enabling VLANs for the Switch, you must first assign each port to the VLAN group(s) it will participate in. By default all ports are assigned to VLAN 1 as untagged ports. Add a port as a tagged port (that is, a port attached to a VLAN-aware device) if you want it to carry traffic for one or more VLANs and the device at the other end of the link also supports VLANs.
Page 277: Forwarding Tagged/Untagged Frames
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. When the message arrives at another switch that supports GVRP, it will also place the receiving port in the specified VLANs, and pass the message on to all other ports.
Page 278: Connecting Vlan Groups
C-1 VLAN S IGURE AMPLE PPLICATION C.3 Connecting VLAN Groups The Switch supports communication within a common VLAN using store-and-forward switching. However, if you have devices in separate VLANs that must communicate, and it is not practical to include these devices in a common VLAN, then the VLANs can be connected via Layer 3 routing provided by this switch.
Page 279 identified by the VLAN ID. Also note that multiple routing entries can be provided for the same virtual interface by adding the required routing table entries for the same virtual interface. A simple VLAN configuration that supports routing is shown below. C.2 VLAN IP R IGURE...
Page 280: Appendix D Vlan Overlapping
Appendix D VLAN Overlapping In some situation, two or more workgroups need to connect to same servers but should not allow them to connect each other. For example, port 3 ~ port 5 are one workgroup and port 6~8 are another workgroup.
Page 281 D-2 VLAN 100 M EMBER 3. VLAN 200 consist port 1 to port 5 as untagged port. D-3 VLAN 200 M EMBER 4. VLAN 300 consist port 1, 2 and 6~8 as untagged port. - 273 -...
Page 282 D-4 VLAN 300 M EMBER 5. On the PVID settings, configure port 1 and port 2’s PVID to 100, port 3 to port 5’s PVID to 200 and port 6 to port 7’s PVID to 300. D-5 PVID C ONFIGURATION After making above configuration and save them, both workgroup can connect to port 1 and port 2 but can not connect each other.
Page 283: Appendix E Console Port Pin Assignment
Appendix E Console Port Pin Assignment The DB9 serial port on the Switch's rear panel is used to connect the Switch to a management device. The on-board menu-driven configuration program can be accessed from a terminal, a PC running a terminal emulation program, or from a remote location via a modem connection.
