Page 16: Installation
3.1 Installation The site where you place the GN-GSV2401M may greatly affect its performance. When installing, take the following into your consideration: Install the GN-GSV2401M in a fairly cool and dry place. See Physical Specification for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges.
Page 17: Web-Based Management Function
3.2 Web-Based Management Function The GN-GSV2401M provides Web based configuration.You can manage and monitor the switch through your Internet Explorer browser or Netscape Communicator. Before you manage and monitor the switch, you will need to assign a Static IP Address to the computer that you are using to configure the switch on the same subnet.
Page 18 Web Management Home Page This is a Home Page. The main features include: Port Status, Port Statistics, Administrator, TFTP Update Firmware, Configuration Backup, Reset System and Reboot.
Page 19: Port Status
3.2.1 Port Status From here, you can observe every port status that depended on user setting and the negotiation result. State Display port statuses disable or enable. “unlink” will be treated as “off ”. Link Status Down is “No Link”, UP is “Link”. Auto Negotiation Display the auto negotiation mode: auto / force / nway-force.

Page 31 If LACP enable, you can configure LACP Active/Passive status in each ports on State Activity page. Enter the desired settings and then click “Apply” button to save the new settings to the switch. Aggregator Information When you are setting LACP aggregator, you can see relation information in here.
Page 32 This page is Static Trunking groups. This page is Actor and Partner trunking one group.
Page 33 State Activity Active (select) The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets. Passive (no select) The port does not automatically sends LACP protocol packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device. 1. A link having either two active LACP ports or one active port can perform dynamic LACP trunking.
Page 34 Filter Database Forwarding and Filtering The GN-GSV2401M support IP multicast, you can enable IGMP protocol on web management’ s switch setting advanced page, then display the IGMP snooping information in this page, you can view difference multicast group ,VID and member port in here, IP multicast addresses range from 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255.
Page 35 Static MAC Addresses When you add a static MAC address, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether the device is physically connected to the switch. This saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's MAC address when the disconnected or powered-off device is active on the network again.
Page 36 In the MAC Address box, enter the MAC address that wants to filter. If tag-based (802.1Q) VLAN are set up on the switch, in the VLAN ID box, type the VID to associate with the MAC address.
Page 37 VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plug into the same switch physically.
Page 38 VLAN ID based on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the protocol. GN-GSV2401M will support protocol-based VLAN classification by means of both built-in knowledge of layer 2 packet formats used by selected popular protocols, such as Novell IPX and AppleTalk’...
Page 39 User can create Tag-based VLAN, and enable or disable GVRP protocol. There are 256 VLAN groups to provide configure. Enable 802.1Q VLAN, the all ports on the switch belong to default VLAN, VID is 1. The default VLAN can’t be delete.
Page 40 From the Available ports box, select ports to add to the switch and click “Add >>” . If the trunk groups exist, you can see it in here (ex:TRK1,TRK2… ), and you can configure it is the member of the VLAN or not.
Page 41 Ingress Filtering Ingress filtering lets frames belonging to a specific VLAN to be forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. GN-GSV2401M have two ingress filtering rule as follows: Ingress Filtering Rule 1：Forward only packets with VID matching this port's configured VID.
Page 42 When STP enabled, to ensure that only one path at a time is active between any two nodes on the network. You can enable Spanning-Tree Protocol on web management’s switch setting advanced item, select enable Spanning-Tree protocol. We are recommended that you enable STP on all switches ensures a single active path on the network.

Page 70 Create a VLAN Group Enter a VLAN Name and a VLAN ID, and then you can configure the VLAN tagging which indicates whether or not VLAN tags will be included on frames passing through this port. Edit/Delete a VLAN Group You can modify or delete the settings for an existing VLAN...
Page 71 Port-Based VLAN Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. You must define outgoing ports allowed for each port when using port-based VLANs. Note that VLAN only governs the outgoing traffic, in the other word, it is unidirectional. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, e.g., between conference rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (outgoing port) for both ports.
Page 72 Create a VLAN Group Up to 26 port-based VLAN groups can be designated for the GN-GSV2401M. Individual ports can exit in two or more VLANs simultaneously, so VLAN groups can overlap or intersect. Edit/Delete a VLAN Group You can modify or delete the settings for an existing VLAN...
Page 73 Group Sorted Mode User can select VLAN groups sorted mode: (1) sorted by name (2) sorted by VID. In the Edit/Delete a VLAN group page will display the result.

The Misc Configuration Menu is displayed after selecting it from the Switch Static Configuration menu. Settings for each port can be adjusted in this menu.
Page 75 Description of each Misc Configuration function: MAC Age Interval The time the Gigabyte GN-GSV2401M will retain a MAC address that has had no buffer memory activity. The valid range is 300~765 seconds. Default is 300 seconds.
Page 76 Broadcast Storm Filtering To configure broadcast storm control, set the upper threshold for individual ports. The threshold is the percentage of the port's total bandwidth used by broadcast traffic. When broadcast traffic for a port rises above the threshold you set, broadcast storm control becomes active. The valid threshold value are 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and NO.
Page 77 1sec, 2sec, 4sec and off. Default is off. Low Queue Delay Bound Limit the low priority packets queuing time in switch. If enable, the low priority packet stays in switch exceed Low Queue Max Delay Time, it will be sent. Press “Space ” key to enable or disable this function.
Page 78 Port Security A port in security mode will be “locked” without permission of address learning. Only the incoming packets with SMAC already existing in the address table can be forwarded normally. User can disable the port from learning any new MAC addresses, then use the static MAC addresses screen to define a list of MAC addresses that can use the secure port.
Page 79 Collisions Retry Forever Enable or Disable the Collisions Retry Forever function. “Disable”： In half duplex, if happen collision will retry 48 times and then drop frame. “Enable”：In half duplex, if happen collision will retry forever.
Page 80 Hash Algorithm Under this option two settings are possible: CRC-Hash or DirectMap. The default value is CRC-Hash.
Page 81 IFG Compensation It means Interframe Gap (96 bits) compensation between two continue frames according to IEEE 802.3ad. “Enable” the IFG compensation will improve the collision case, “Disable” IFG compensation might get more throughput, but can't improve the collision case.
