⇒ The minimum grade of cable for use with the switch is Cat. 5 grade UTP or STP. Higher grades of UTP/STP cable may also be used to connect to the copper RJ-45 ports.
Username: admin Password: admin The RS-232 console port on the switch is mainly used for the initial setup of the switch including setting the IP Address, Subnet Mask and Gateway. It is recommended that all other management duties that need to be performed should be done via the Web Management or CLI.
Page 17
To set or change the default IP address of the switch via the console port, please follow the steps below: 1. Log into the switch via hyper terminal using the above settings. 2. Type IP and press Enter to enter the IP configuration mode.
Network Management Software that is being used. Note: MIB files can be located for each switch on the CD-ROM, which can then be used with your Network Management Software.
Page 19
If using the CLI open a command prompt and create a telnet session to the default IP Address of the switch. You will now be prompted to log into the switch, the default username and password is shown below: Username: admin Password: admin Fig.
Page 20
Username: admin Password: admin Once you have entered the IP address of the GSM Series switch into a web browser you will be prompted with a login screen where you will need to enter a valid username and password to gain access to the switch.
GSM Series User Manual 3-1. Web Management Home Overview Once you have entered a valid username and password and logged into the switch the System Information page will be displayed, this is the default page, it will be displayed every time that you log into the switch.
Page 22
At the top of the page, there is a picture of the front panel of the switch. The picture displays the port status of each of the ports on the switch. If the port is green this tells us that the port has an active connection, if the port is grey then no link is present.
Page 24
The time accumulated since last power up. Format is Day, Hour, Minute, Second. (Read Only) Current Time: Shows the system time of the switch. Format is Day of week, Month, Day, Hours, Minutes, Seconds, Year. Eg Mon Jan 16 3:46:49 2006 (Read Only) BIOS Version: The version of the BIOS in the switch.
3-1-2. IP Configuration The IP configuration is used to set the IP settings in the switch. The GSM Series switches support either a static IP address allocated to them via the system administrator or can be assigned an IP address dynamically from a DHCP server on your network. The IP address is used to gain access to the management functionality of the switch.
Page 26
If DHCP has been enabled the switch will receive a DNS IP Address dynamically from the DHCP Server. If you are not using DHCP you will need to set a DNS address in the switch. A DNS Server address should be given to you from your ISP.
3-1-3. Time Configuration The GSM Series switches provide two methods to keep the switch’s time settings correct, they are via manual input and via a Time Server on the internet. If you are manually entering your time settings enter the “Year”, “Month”, “Day, “Hour”, “Minute” and “Seconds” into the space provided.
Page 28
The Time Zone is an offset time of the GMT. The switch supports a configurable time zone from -12 to +13 hours in increments of 1 hour.
GSM Series switches allow the administrator to create up to 5 guest accounts, accounts can only be created by the administrator. When a Guest user logs into the switch they will not be able to modify any parameters, they just have read only rights to the switch. A Guest user can log into the switch and change there own password, but will not be able to modify any other accounts.
Rules can also be created to allow access to management from certain switch ports only. Eg only port 5 has access to the switch’s management. Rules can then be broken down even further to allow particular management access to these VLAN groups, IP Ranges or Ports.
Page 32
Incoming Port: If you want to lock the management interface access down to certain ports on your switch please select the Custom radio button and tick the required ports which will allow/deny access to the management. Otherwise select the Any radio button.
Administrators will only need to know the IP address of the master switch to gain access to all GSM Series switches on the network. An additional table will appear above the web management screen showing all switches that belong to the virtual stacking group.
Page 35
Parameter Description: Port No: Displays every port on the switch. If the port is paired with another port you will see that port 15 and port 15b will be displayed. This applies for the GSM- 16T2SFP and GSM-24T2SFP where they have 2 copper ports that are paired with 2 SFP Fibre ports.

Used to select what ports statistics are being displayed. Refresh Interval: The user can define the amount of time the switch will take to update the ports statistics this is measured in seconds and ranges from 3 – 10. Default: 3 seconds.
Here you can select which port is going to be used as the monitoring port. You can select any port on the switch in the case of the GSM-16T2SFP, ports 1 -16 can be selected and 1 – 24 for the GSM-24T2SFP and GSM-8T16SFP.
The GSM Series switches allow the administrator to configure High and Low priority levels to individual ports on the switch. For instance if port 1 is set to High priority and port 2 is set to Low priority and both ports are transmitting data at 1G to port 5, packets transmitted from port 2 will be dropped if there is congestion in the switch.
Page 50
1 with a TOS field of 000 and packets to port 2 with a TOS field of 001 at 1Gb to port 3 of the switch and the switch becomes congested packets from port 2 may be partially dropped due to the lower priority levels.
Page 51
The GSM Series switches allow the administrator to configure QoS rules based on Layer 4 networking protocols such as HTTP, FTP etc. The switch provides built in rules to down prioritise, or prioritise different types of services. If the built in rules do not suit your particular application, custom services can also be created based on a particular TCP/UDP port number.
SNMP managers and agents and traverses the Object Identity (OID) of the Management Information Base (MIB), described in the form of SMI syntax. The SNMP agent is running on the switch to respond to requests issued by an SNMP manager.
Page 56
IP address; which are user-definable. To configure a Trap host you will need a network management System to receive the Trap messages from the switch. Six Trap hosts can be configured to allow the trap messages to be received by multiple recipients.
The GSM Series switches support all functions of IGMP Snooping including query, report and leave. IGMP Snooping is used by the switch to learn who belongs to a multicast group and also update the multicast table within the switch with new multicast members. Once the switch has learned who belongs to the multicast group all packets forwarded to a multicast address will be forwarded to all members belonging to the multicast group.
Page 58
To disable IGMP select the disable radio button and click Apply. Active: When using Active mode the switch will periodically issue the membership query message to all hosts attached to the switch and update the multicast table respectively. By using Active mode you will reduce multicast traffic on your network.
The port number in which you wish to apply a smaller or larger packet size. Max. Frame Size: Used to set the maximum length of the packet that each port of the switch can accept. There are three sizes that can be selected 1518, 1532 and 9216.
DHCP. The switch supports a random delay time for DHCP and boot delay for each device. This suppresses the broadcast storm while all devices on the network are booting at the same time.
VLAN group in which it belongs. A typical example of where a VLAN could be used is in a school environment where the teacher and student networks must be kept separate. The switch supports up to 256 active VLAN entries and a VLAN ID ranging from 1 – 4096.
Page 63
Metro Mode: Metro mode is a quick and easy configuration of port-based VLAN’s. Metro mode quickly separates the switch into 14 or 15 (GSM-16T2SFP) 23 or 24 (GSM- 24T2SFP, GSM-8T16SFP) port-based VLAN groups. All ports on the switch are configured into separate VLAN groups and can not communicate with each other.
Page 64
(depending on model) port-based VLAN groups containing two member ports in each group. 15 & 16 (GSM-16T2SFP) 23 & 24 (GSM-24T2SFP, GSM-8T16SFP): Each port of the switch can no longer communicate with each other, they can only communicate with the uplink ports chosen therefore creating 14 or 22 (depending on model) port-based VLAN groups containing three member ports in each group.
VID is the VLAN Identifier. Each tag-based VLAN group must have a unique VID. SYM-VLAN: Used to add additional security to the switch. If the SYM-VLAN function of the group is enabled, all packets with this group VID will be dropped in case they are transmitted from the ports that do not belong to this group.
Tag Rule Function description: The administrator can apply a VID to each port of the switch; the valid range of the VID is from 1 to 4094. Ingress filtering rules can also be applied to each port, there are two rules that can be applied Rule 1 “Forward only packets with VID matching this ports...
The MAC Table configuration can be used by the administrator to statically add MAC entries to the switches MAC table, display MAC address information from connecting devices, allow you to flush the switches MAC table and also allow you to configure the MAC age out time of the switch. 3-11-1. MAC Table Information...
Page 73
MAC address connected to all ports of the switch. If you wish to search for a particular MAC address, enter the MAC address in the Search section and click Search.
After a MAC address has been learned by the switch the MAC address is stored in the MAC table of the switch. If the MAC address is no longer used the switch will drop the MAC address from the table after a certain period of time. This time can be defined by the administrator.
The Static Forward function is used to associate a MAC address to a particular port of the switch. When a MAC address is assigned to a specific port all of the switches traffic sent to that MAC address will be forwarded to this port.
Function description: The Static Filter function allows the administrator to block MAC addresses from being forwarded by the switch. If a MAC address belongs to the Static Filtering table the switch will discard all traffic from that MAC address. The administrator can easily add MAC addresses to the Static Filter table by entering the MAC Address, VID and Alias fields.
GARP application that provides the 802.1Q-compliant VLAN pruning and dynamic VLAN creation on 802.1Q trunk ports. With GVRP, the switch can exchange VLAN configuration information with other GVRP switches, prune unnecessary broadcast and unknown unicast traffic, and dynamically create and manage VLAN’s on switches connected through 802.1Q trunk ports.
Page 79
The switch participates normally in the GARP protocol exchanges. This is the default setting. Non-Participant: In this mode the switch does not send or reply to any GARP messages, it just listens to messages and reacts to any received GVRP BPDU. Default Registrar Mode: There are three types of administrative control values that can be set, they are normal registrar, fixed registrar and forbidden registrar.
Enabled: The switch will not create dynamic VLAN’s when this port receives GVRP BDU, except if it receives a dynamic VLAN message and the GVRP PDU is an existing static VLAN entry. 3-12-2. GVRP Counter Function name: GVRP Counter Function description: All GVRP counters are divided into Received and Transmitted sections to allow you to monitor all GVRP actions.
The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a standardised method (IEEE 802.1D) for avoiding loops in switched networks. When STP is enabled, the switch will ensure that only one path is active between any two nodes on the network at a time. The administrator can enable Spanning Tree Protocol via the switch’s web management and then set up other advanced items.
If you wish the GSM Series switch to be the root bridge you will need to ensure that other bridges on your network have a higher bridge priority than that of this switch. The valid value is 0 –...
Page 86
Max. Age: If the GSM Series switch is the root bridge, the whole network will apply this figure as their maximum age time. When a switch receives a BPDU message originating from the root bridge and if the message age exceeds the maximum age of the bridge, the bridge will treat the root bridge as malfunctioned and issue a Topology Change Notification (TCN) BPDU to all other bridges.
Aggregation can bundle more than one port with the same speed, full duplex and the same MAC address to be a single logical port, thus the logical port aggregates the bandwidth of these ports. This allows the switch to aggregate multiple ports together to form a high bandwidth backbone link.
3-14-1. Trunk Port Settings/Status Function name: Port Settings/Status Function description: Port Settings/Status is used to configure the trunk properties of each port on the switch. Parameters description: Method: Determines the method the port will use to aggregate with other ports.
The LACP System Priority is used to set the priority of the LACP system ID. LACP will only aggregate ports whose partner ports belong to a single switch. Each system that has support for LACP will be assigned a globally unique System Identifier for this purpose. A system ID is a 64-bit field comprising of a 48-bit MAC address and a 16-bit priority value.
Page 97
B and C are on the internal network, D is the Authentication server running RADIUS, the switch at the central location acts as the Authenticator connecting to PC A and A is a PC outside the controlled port, running Supplicant PAE. In this case, PC A wants to access the services on device B and C, first, it must exchange the authentication message with the authenticator on the port it is connected via EAPOL packet.
The GSM Series switches support a number of trap messages that can be sent to an administrator if certain events occur on the switch. The switch offers 24 different trap events that can be sent to the administrator in 3 different ways; email, mobile phone SMS or trap.
In this section the administrator can save the switch’s configuration, restore the switch to factory default and also save the current configuration as the startup configuration when the switch is re-booted.
External loopback test. The internal loopback test is an internal test and no test signal is sent out of the switch. The external loopback test will send the test signal to its link partner to check if the port has got an active link. If there is no active link the external loopback test will fail.
3-18-3. Ping Test Function name: Ping Test Function description: The GSM Series switches support a ping test function to allow the switch to test communication between other IP based devices. Parameters description: IP Address: Enter an IP Address that you would like to test connectivity between.
Function description: The Trap Log Data displays all SNMP Private trap events, SNMP Public traps and all other user logs. The GSM Series switch support up to 120 log entries. Parameters description: Displays the order number of all entries in the log.
3-21. Firmware Upgrade The GSM Series switches allow the administrator to upgrade the firmware to improve the features and capabilities of the switch. The firmware is upgraded via a TFTP server using any Ethernet port on the switch. Function name:...
3-22. Reboot The GSM Series of switches allow the Administrator to reboot the switch from the web management you can also reboot the switch using the reset button on the front panel of the switch. Function name: Reboot Function description: Used to reboot the switch, this can also be performed via the RESET button on the front panel of the switch.
After you have logged in successfully the prompt will be shown as “#” meaning that you are the first to login to the switch with administrator rights. If a “$” prompt is shown it means that you have logged in as a guest and you are only allowed to view the system, no changes can be made to the switch.
To display the list of commands that are supported on the GSM Series Switches CLI type “?” and press enter. All commands on the switch are divided into 2 groups Global commands and Local commands. The Global commands include “exit”, “end”, “help”, “history”, “logout”, “save start”, “save user”, “restore default”...
