Page 13: Prepare For Installation
Prepare for Installation Check for shipping damage Carefully unpack and inspect the unit and accessories. Contact RLH immediately if any components are damaged or missing. Electronic components, fiber optic cable, and accessories have special handling requirements to prevent damage and enhance system reliability. If the switch will be relocated in the future, save the cartons and protective packaging material. -
Page 14: Site Requirements
Site Requirements Site selection Locate the switch to allow easy access to the equipment. Leave at enough clearance in the front and rear to gain access to the fiber, ethernet alarm and power connections.Typical application environments Route the fiber optic cable to the installation area before installing the switch. Required power sources You will need an acceptable power source. -
Page 15: Quick Start Guide
4. Quick Start Guide Easy Installation Before starting 1. Important Information • Review the safety information in section • Familiarize yourself with the fiber switch as described in section Introduction • Know how to handle fiber optic cable, have a suitable installation environment with the correct power, as described 3. -
Page 16: Configuring The System
5. Configuring the System Managing with Hyper Terminal Connect the switch to a PC running Windows®, then open Hyper Terminal: Start->Program->Attachment-> Communication. Make a new connection when opening Hyper Terminal. The communication port needs to connect the PC to the switch. It must use the following configuration parameters: Bits per second: 115200, Data bits: 8, Parity: None, Stop bits: 1, Flow control: None. -
Page 17: Modification Of Ip Address
Modification of IP Address When Hyper Terminal is finished, you can see the following screen: Terminal Window $$ means user enters into restricted privileges mode; # means user enters into manager mode; The two modes use command root and command exit to switch mode. The default password of the switch is "admin: admin". -
Page 18: Web Management
Web Management The RLH-ESMXXX-XX-X series switch supports Web management. It is very intuitive to manage and maintain the equipment through Web interface. Before configuring the switch, please ensure necessary software installed your computer and reasonable configuration of the network. The lowest requirement for user's computer is as below: •... -
Page 19: Startup And Log In
TCP/IP Properties Screen Startup and Log in Open IE, input http://192.168.1.254 in the address field, click “Enter” as shown below: Input correct user name and password, then enter successfully (default user name is “admin”, password is “admin”. If user name or password input incorrectly in 3 times continuously, you must login again. Note: User name and password are case-sensitive. -
Page 20: System Status
System Status Menu Introduction Menu Bar consists of 8 parts: system status, port configuration, L2 Feature, Qos, Redundancy, Monitor, Port Statistics, Diagnosis and basic settings. Web Overtime Handling If user doesn't operate the Web interface for a long time, The system will cancel this login (but configuration change made in this login will be saved in Web configuration interface). -
Page 21: System Status
on Web configuration interface again, the system will reminds user and returns to the login dialog box. Users need to log in again if operating is needed. System Status Device Information mainly display the basic information of RLH-XXXXXX-XX-X series switch including: Name, Serial No., Description, Contact Information, MAC address, Hardware Version and Firmware Version, as shown in below: Among them, Model, Hardware Version, Firmware Version and MAC address can’t be changed. - Page 22 We can also see each port status in the Port Information area.

Page 23: Port Configuration
Port Configuration Main function of port settings: • Forcibly set up speed mode and duplex mode of each port • Enable or disable each port • Each port is allowed flow control or not. Port Configuration Screen Configuring the System... - Page 24 This interface displays basic information of each port. The meaning of information is shown as below: Port Setting Notes Port Speed Port speed shows the connecting speed of the port. It includes 3 kinds of speed: 10M, 100M and auto- negotiation.
- Page 25 negotiation so that the port can automatically judge the connection type of the device connected to it and automatically adjust the connection type to ensure the maximum compatibility. Flow Control Flow control is used to prevent the frames from discard while port is blocked. This method is to send back the blocking signal to its original address while sending or receiving buffer area start to overflow.

Page 26: Broadcast Storm Suppression
The device provides both ingress and egress speed limitation. The ingress speed refers to the actual speed from PC and other devices to the switch. The egress speed refers to the actual speed from the switch to other devices. If ingress and egress speed of the connecting port between two devices are limited at the same time, the actual speed will be the smaller value. -
Page 27: L2 Features
There are many reasons to cause broadcast storm. For example: a redundant or incorrect connect among switches. If storm suppression is enabled, it can stop the attack. Our device can detects 2 kind of broadcast messages according to the type of broadcast storm. •... -
Page 28: Port Based Vlan
Each VLAN is a broadcast domain and hosts in VLAN can communicate just like in the same LAN. But it can not interconnect between VLAN. Then broadcast message is limited in the VLAN. Port based VLAN A port based VLAN determines the membership of a data frame by examining the configuration of the port that receive the transmission or reading a portion of the data frame's tag header. - Page 29 1. Add Item Group name can be number only in IEEE 802.1Q VLAN. It is TPID in VLAN ID. The same group name means you need to modify the members of the group. A new group name means the new transmission rule is built. The transmission item is not more than 64 in IEEE 802.1Q VLAN.
-
Page 30: Igmp Snooping
• Keep the same VID and priority If the data has no VLAN ID, please use the default priority and port VID to create a VLAN ID and insert it into the data frame, otherwise the data frame keeps the same. •... - Page 31 IGMP Notes • It must set up 802.1Q VLAN first before enabling IGMP Snooping. • It had better not to have many IGMP query to save the resources. If you are not sure of the forwarding relationship of the unknown multicast group, please choose all the ports. Static Multicast FWD The device provides the function of static MAC address forwarding.
-
Page 32: Qos
QOS Classification QoS can provide 4 internal queues and each queue supports 4 different levels of traffic. The data packets with high priority stay a short time in the ethernet switch. Some traffic which is sensitive to delay will supports very short latent period. According to port ID, MAC address, 802.1p priority tag, DiONetServ and IP TOS, the device can classfy data packets to its corresponding classification. -
Page 33: Cos
Default priority is also the port based priority. Default priority is quite different from COS and TOS, it has nothing to do with data packets but port priority of the switch. When port priority is high, the data packets transmitted from this port will faster than other ports. Priority tag in 802.1P includes 8 kinds (0-7). -
Page 34: Redundancy
Note If the default priority is High, then other QoS property will not be checked and put into High priority queuing DSCP is lower than default priority, if there is no settings about DSCP, 802.1P will be checked, or the queuing will be based on DSCP settings. - Page 35 The device supports 2 Trunking groups. Each group support 2-4 port trunking. Trunking Notes The action of Trunking member is the same, so configuration sub-items of each member (port properties, VLAN properties) are the same in a group. If you don't confirm RSTP status, please disable RSTP,or close the others, leaving one RSTP channel. Port 1 as a system reservation cannot be used as Trunking port.

3. Permanent Static MAC address Permanent MAC address is generated by configuration. It is beyond maximum age. Whatever changes the ports of the switch make, the relationship of the MAC address and corresponding port will never change. Permanent MAC address will disappear when the switch re-start. MAC address table can appoint type of the order. -
