MIB and RMON database. Prior to accessing the switch from a Web browser, be sure you have first performed the following tasks: Configure it with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway using an out-of-band serial connection.
3.3 Port Config This section allows you to have an easy access in configuring the ports of the management Switch. Notice that the “Link state” option indicates “Up”. This shows that the port is connected to the network. It can either be in “Up”...
Page 14
Port State Port state is for enabling or disabling the switch operation of the chosen port. If it is ‘enabled’, the chosen port will receive and forward the packets, and learns the respective source MAC Addresses. If it is ‘disable’, the chosen port will not receive or forward any packets or learn source MAC Addresses.
This feature enables or disables the Flow Control function of the port. Flow control can eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic from end stations or segments connected directly to the switch when its buffers fill. IEEE 802.3x flow control is used for full duplex. Note that flow control should not be used if a port is connected to a hub.
3.5 Trunk config Port Trunking is the ability to group together several switch ports to increase the bandwidth between the management switch and other switch. This is an inexpensive method to increase throughput between switches (or to servers). We define the Port Trunking as the ability to group a set of ports into a single logical link.
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 (i.e., lowest value) will be configured as an active link in the Spanning Tree.
3.7.2 STP Bridge This page lets you to have a clearer view in Spanning Tree parameters for whole switch. Figure 3-6 The Spanning Tree Screen Description of Parameters STP State When STP is enabled, it will dynamically detect network looping owing to mis-configuration of the network topology.
Step 4: Click “Apply” button and save it if everything is OK. The screen is divided into two sections. Current Spanning Tree Root section displays the read-only Spanning Tree settings for the current root switch and the parameters this switch is NOTE to use when it becomes the root switch.
Basically, you got to have min. 2 units, Step 1: linking the switches by one category 5 or fiber cable. Step 2: Choose either one management switch as Master switch, key in its IP number (ex:203.70.249.152). Step 3: Choose “Stack Config”.

IP address. You can key in Master IP (ex:203.70.249.152), and choose “Stack Config”, then all the stack member list will be displayed . You can then choose the switch you want to configure from the “Select switch to view” list.
A Trap Receiver entry contains the IP address of the node and a community string that is included in the trap message. When an event arises that requires a trap message to be sent, it is sent to every node listed in the Trap Receiver.
Figure 3-13. RMON Statistics page 3.12 Port Security Of all 26 ports, some of the end nodes may need to assign to the specific port. In order to fulfill this act, MAC Address should be added to that particular port. This is to ban other users from using the static port. A port can accommodate up to 20 MAC Addresses.
3.12.1 Setting Up Procedures Step 1: Select the port that you want to add in the MAC Address Step 2: Key in the MAC Address in the field provided, e.g. 00-80-40-E8-85-12, and click “Add” button The system will then add in the New MAC Address into the listing on the right side of the screen. 3.12.2 Delete MAC Address If you want to delete MAC Address(es), simply follow the procedures shown below: For deleting individual MAC Address...
3.14 Aging Control Aging Control is for the aging of address entries in the switch’s forwarding table. If the aging control is enabled, a learned address entry (not included the static entry) will be removed from the forwarding table if there is no update within a pre-determined period (1 ~ 128 x 5 seconds).
3.15 Address Search Host Search is for searching a host by IP or MAC address on the whole switch, and getting the port number to switch the host is connected. It is useful while configuring the VLAN. With this function, you can easily detect the port at which a host is connected to and have an idea about which ports should be included in a VLAN.
Figure 3-17 The Host search page 3.15.1 Host Searching Procedures Step 1: Enter the IP Address of the host. Step 2: Click on “Search” button. The result will displayed as shown: If the system can not find the Host Address the following GUI will appear:...
3.15.2 MAC Address Search This feature helps to look for the particular MAC Address stated in the field, which provides a useful way while configuring the VLAN. The system will search through the device for the port’s ownership of that particular PC.
Step 3: Enter the IP address and Subnet Mask. Step 4: Click “Apply” button and save the setting by hitting “Save” button. Upon making amendments on this page, the screen will appear a message, “Reboot the switch?”. Click on the ‘Yes’ button to take effect on the changes.
Click on “Logon” button again if you still need to access to the management switch web page. This cannot apply to the changing of IP Address! Please refer to the following notes for details. Please note that after changing IP Address of the device, the system will not lead you to log in the management switch web page after you have clicked “Logon”...

When attaching an end-station to the device, a standard straight-through CAT5 cable may be used, even when the end-station is attached via a patch panel. However, when attaching another switch or attaching workstations via hubs, a crossover cable will need to be used. Please see the following wire diagrams for examples of both cable types.
