  • Page 11: Implementing The Switch

    2. Implementing the Switch This chapter explains how to start the operating condition and the initial boot of the software after turning on the switch. 2.1. Installation When mounting and dismounting of the switch must be disconnected from the power supply! 2.1.1.

  • Page 12: Power Supply

    Dismounting a device see figure 2.2.: 1. If the brackets are fixed, undo fixation first. 2. If several devices are assembled together, loosen the devices from one another along the rail. 3. Pull the locking tabs downwards with a suitable tool (eg screwdriver). The two latches remain in the disengaged state.

  • Page 13: Alarm Contact

    2.1.3. Alarm Contact In case of a sudden power failure during operation, the switches (except SM 5TX M12) can give an alarm. To avoid that the switch gives a false alarm, the alarm contact can be disabled via the web interface (see Section 4.2.5).

  • Page 14: Assigning Ip Addresses

    2.2.2. Assigning IP Addresses Figure 2.6.: Flowchart Assigning IP Addresses By default, the switch receives its IP configuration via BootP, but there is also the possibility of addressing mechanism via the web interface one-note, see Section 4.2.4. After the switch is connected to the network, all addresses of the connected devices are stored. The process in the switch during initial assignment of an IP-address is illustrated in Figure 2.6.

  • Page 15: Functions

    Figure 2.7.: Home page of the switch web server It could be that you need to adjust the IP configuration of the calling host to reach the web server with the switch. Also pay attention to existing firewalls that may block the access.

    • Auto-Negotiation und Auto-Sensing: Auto-negotiation allows the exchange of protocol settings between the two link partners. If auto-negotiation is accepted by the link partner, the switch automatically selects the protocol with the highest performance. If auto-negotiation is not possible, the switch tries to determine the link-mode with auto-sensing passively.

  • Page 17: Frame-Switching

    3.1.3. Frame-Switching The switch operates in store-and-forward mode. If a data packet is received, the switch analyzes the source and destination address. The switch is able to store up to 1024 MAC addresses in its address table, with a retention time of 48 seconds. •...

  • Page 18: Traffic Control In The Network

    3.2.1. Traffic Control in the Network To control of the traffic in the network, the following techniques are implemented on the Switch: • Multicast filtering, IGMP snooping and Flow Control: In order to prevent unnecessary network traffic, the switch supports multicast filtering within the LAN via IGMP.
  • Page 19 Each network device network is named edge (device 1 and 2) or non-edge (device 3 and 4) due to its location on the network. Only the network devices that stopped forwarding data are referred to as edge. The spanning tree is generated according to the following rules: 1.1.1.1.

  • Page 20: Diagnosis

    device sends its own configuration message to the root device. The age of information (BPDU) is thereby increased each time by one second when the message has passed through a switch. - Forward Delay: The value of the forward delay indicates that the switch is in the waiting state to change the status of the port from 'discarding' to 'learning' and from 'learning' to 'forwarding' 3.2.3.

    device) • GetResponse: The reply of the Management Agent on a GetRequest, GetNextRequest, SetRequest or the management station. Figure 4.1.: Case-diagram of all SNMPv1 Supported Commands 4.1.2. Trap A trap is sent from the switch to the SNMP manager to indicate that an event has been detected by the switch.

  • Page 22: Management Information Base (Mib)

    4.1.3. Management Information Base (MIB) The MIB is defined as a tree consisting of object identifiers, and has the structure shown in Figure 4.2. Each blue box contains, as well as the associated system, a group of objects. The Yacoub MIB is part of the Yacoub box.
  • Page 23 • EtherLike MIB (RFC 1643), Dot3StatsTable Group: Contains specific information about Ethernet errors on each port (eg collisions, CRC errors, carrier sense errors, ...). • RMON (RFC 1757): - Statistics Group: Contains Ethernet-specific statistics for each port (eg transmitted packets, multicast packets, drop events, ...).
  • Page 24 4.1.5. MIB-Data The data from the MIB-II, EtherLike MIB and RMON are specified in the corresponding Request for Comment (RFC). The groups and their properties in the Yacoub MIB are as follows: 1. General: a) ID: A string that contains the device identification, b) Revision: An integer that contains the version number.

  • Page 25: Web Based Configuration

    • The most readable and writable data are dynamic, only sysContact, sysName and sysLocation in the MIB-II system group are stored in the flash, and the whole Yacoub MIB is also stored in the flash. • All other data are set to the default setting at startup. 4.2.
