    The IEEE 802.1Q with VLAN tagging feature make logically separating nodes easier and up to 255 VLAN group are allowed on the WGSW-2403. Rate control is also supported to allow bandwidth allocation on a per-port basis. Two priority queues ensure critical applications get the bandwidth and priority they need.

    Console Port The RS-232 console is an interface for connecting a terminal directly. Through the console port, it provides rich diagnostic information includes network statistics, link status and system setting. The operating mode of the console port is: 9600 (Fix baud rate) n (No parity checking) 8 (8 Data bits) 1 (1 stop bit)

Airflow around the unit and through the vents in the side of the case is great for heat radiation (company recommend that you provide a minimum of 25 mm clearance).

    Chapter 3 CONSOLE AND TELNET MANAGEMENT 3.1 Connect To PC by RS-232 serial Cable NOTE: If you have stacked several switches together, make sure you are working on Master switch (switch with least Switch ID). Other slave switches’ management interface allows only viewing the configuration by “guest” account. To configure the system, connect the provided serial cable to a COM port on a PC or notebook computer and to serial (console) port of the device.

    “guest”: guest can view the whole switch information only, moreover, access to Web management interface is not allowed. The default password is “guest”. Main menu appears after successfully login WGSW-2403. To enter any of the submenus, simply type the number after the command prompt. When select further options, you may be asked for the device ID which you want to configure.

    A denominate port can be searched by its given name (Match whole word only). 4.7 Security This is reserved for future use. 4.8 SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a communication protocol for managing devices on a network. It is commonly used for network administrators to communicate with multiple devices (hub, switch, router ……) for configuring and monitoring while convenient for troubleshooting but no miscellaneous platform consideration.
  • Page 29 Select one community you want to modify in the “Current” column The “New” column lists the corresponding values; please modify it Click Modify button to update the entry Trap Manager Trap Manager specifies the Network Management Stations (NMS) that will receive trap messages from the SNMP agent and can up to 5 entries.
  • Page 30: Vlan

    Trap Filtering Check the “Enable” boxes by mouse clicking to receive a notice when corresponding event occurs. 4.9 VLAN The VLAN is a group of ports that may spread around the network but communicate as though they belong to one subnet. By using VLAN, all ports can be reorganized into separate broadcast domains for security reasons and reduce bandwidth occupation instead of using routers to divide whole network into subnets.
  • Page 31 To remove a VLAN group Select a VLAN group you want to remove from the “Current” list. Click Remove>> button to remove it. Attention: If a removed port is no longer belonged to any other group, it is temporarily disabled because no one can communicate with it. If one port’s PVID is equal to this VLAN ID, removing this VLAN group will not allow until you change it.
  • Page 32 VLAN Port Configuration When the VLAN-enabled switch receives an untagged packet, the packet will be sent to the port’s default VLAN according to the PVID (port VLAN ID) of the receiving port. To change the PVID Double click the “PVID” column of a port. Input a new VLAN ID (1~255).
  • Page 33: Igmp Snooping

    Click All Together button then all the ports of the switch will be added to VLAN group 1. - All Independent Click All Independent button then all the ports will be divided into separated subnets (totally 18 subnets). Every port can belong to different Port Group VLANs simultaneously without limitation. 4.10 IGMP Snooping Multicasting is widely used to support multi-media applications such as video conferencing.
  • Page 34: Sta

    However, before making connections between switches, pay attention to: The ports at both ends of a Port Aggregation connection must be configured as Aggregation Ports. The ports at both ends of a Port Aggregation connection must have the same port properties, including Speed, Duplex mode.
  • Page 35 Information This screen displays summaries of STA information. For further configuration, please go to next section. Parameter STA State Designated Root Bridged ID Root Port Max Age (6~40 sec) Hello Time (1~10 sec) Hold Time Description Shows if STA is enabled on the switch and participated an STA compliant network.

There are 8 traffic classes and 8 Service Rules in the Priority Map. When one packet carries with priority-tag, which has specified a CoS (Class of Service) comes into the switch, the specified CoS tag will determine what priority (Low/High) will it get according to the Priority Map in the switch.
