1. Package Contents Thank you for purchasing PLANET 28-Port 10/100/1000Mbps + 4-Port Shared SFP Managed Gigabit Switch, WGSW-28040. “Managed Switch” mentioned in this Guide refers to the WGSW-28040. Open the box of the Managed Switch and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items: The Managed Switch x 1 Quick Installation Guide x 1...
2. Requirements z Workstations running Windows XP/2003/Vista/7/8/2008, MAC OS X or later, Linux, UNIX, or other platforms are compatible with TCP/IP protocols. z Workstations are installed with Ethernet NIC (Network Interface Card) z Serial Port Connection (Terminal) The above Workstations come with COM Port (DB9) or USB-to-RS-232 converter. The above Workstations have been installed with terminal emulator, such as Hyper Terminal included in Windows XP/2003.
3. Terminal Setup To configure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or notebook computer and to RJ-45 type of console port of the Managed Switch. PC / Workstation with Terminal emulation software Managed Switch RS-232 to RJ-45 Cable Serial Port Serial Port 115200,8,n,1 Figure 3-1: Managed Switch Console Connectivity A terminal program is required to make the software connection to the Managed Switch.
4. Logon to the Console Once the terminal is connected to the device, power on the Managed Switch and the terminal will display “running testing procedures”. Then, the following message asks to log-in user name and password. The factory default user name and password are shown as follows and the login screen in Figure 4-1 appears.
2. The screen displays the current IP address, Subnet Mask and Gateway shown in Figure 5-1. Figure 5-1: IP Information Screen Configuration of the IP address 1. On “WGSW-28040#” prompt, enter “configure”. 2. On “WGSW-28040(config)#” prompt, enter the following command and press <Enter> as shown in Figure 5-2. WGSW-28040(config)# ip address 192.168.1.100 mask 255.255.255.0 WGSW-28040(config)# ip default-gateway 192.168.1.254...

The previous command would apply the following settings for the Switch. IP Address: 192.168.1.100 Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: 192.168.1.254 Figure 5-2: Setting IP Address Screen 5. Repeat Step 1 to check if the IP address is changed. If the IP is successfully configured, the WGSW Managed Switch will apply the new IP address setting immediately. You can access the Web interface of WGSW Managed Switch through the new IP address.
RAM to FLASH by write command or copy running-config startup-config command, so that the running configuration sequence becomes the start up configuration file, which is called configuration save. 1. On “WGSW-28040#” prompt, enter “copy running-config startup-config” as shown in Figure 6-1. Figure 6-1: Saving the Configuration Screen...
7. Starting Web Management The following shows how to start up the Web Management of the Managed Switch. Note the Managed Switch is configured through an Ethernet connection. Please make sure the manager PC must be set on the same IP subnet address. For example, the default IP address of the Managed Switch is 192.168.0.100; then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100) and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

3. After entering the password, the main screen appears as Figure 7-3 shows. Figure 7-3: Web Main Screen of Managed Switch The Switch Menu on the left of the Web page lets you access all the commands and statistics the Managed Switch provides. Figure 7-4: Switch Menu Now, you can use the Web management interface to continue the Switch management.
8. Saving Configuration via the Web In the Managed Switch, the running configuration file stores in the RAM. In the current version, the running configuration sequence of running-config can be saved from the RAM to FLASH by “Save Configurations to FLASH” function, so that the running configuration sequence becomes the startup configuration file, which is called configuration save.
10 seconds. After the device is rebooted, you can login the Web interface management within the same subnet of 192.168.0.xx. 28G Managed Switch WGSW-28040 Console RESET 1000 115200, N, 8, 1 Figure 9-1: WGSW-28040 Reset Button...
