5. Manual CD Introduction General Description Easily boosting your networking throughput, LevelOne GSW-0841 provides you 8 10/100/1000Mbps gigabit ports that lead you to a real gigabit connection. Users are now able to transfer high bandwidth-demanded files faster and get a real efficiency improvement with the user-friendly web-based management interface.
The switch provides a power LED for the device. Steady Green Power Port LEDs The switch provides one “1000M” LED and one “10/100M” LED for each port. Status Green The port is connected at 1000 Mbps A valid link is established, and there is data Blinking Green transmitting/receiving.
Please make sure that your outlet standard to be within this range. To power on the switch, please plug the female end of the power cord firmly into the receptacle of the switch and the other end into an electric service outlet. After the power cord installation, please check if the power LED is lit for a normal power status.
Installation This switch can be placed on your desktop directly, or mounted in a rack. Please refer to the instructions for installation. Before installing the switch, we recommend: The switch is placed with appropriate ventilation environment. A minimum 25mm space around the unit is recommended.
Crossover or straight-through cable: All the ports on the switch support auto-MDI/MDI-X functionality. Both straight-through or crossover cables can be used as the media to connect the switch with PCs as well as other devices like switches, hubs or router.
Functional Description Jumbo Frame With Jumbo Frame supported, it is allowed for the switch to transport identical data in fewer frames. Hence helps to ensure fewer overheads, shorten processing time, and reduce interrupts. Note: To enable Jumbo Frame, Flow Control should be enabled in advance.
To access the web-based management interface, you should configure the management station with an IP address and subnet mask that compatible to your switch. The factory default value of the switch: IP: Subnet Mask: Default Gateway:...
Homepage After authentication procedure, the “SYSTEM Configuration” page shows up as the Homepage. You may click the hyperlinks on the left side of each page to get access to each management functions.
System The “System” window provides the switch information and allows users to configure the switch properties. Items MAC Address The MAC address of this device.. S/W Version The software version of this device. IP Address Setup the IP address of the switch...
Port This “Port Configuration” page shows the link status of each port and allows users to configure speed, flow control and Max frame size for each port. Items Link Shows the link status of each port. The column lights green with the link speed while there is valid connection on this port.
VLAN VLAN divides the network members into groups to reduce packets collisions and improve the network efficiency. The switch supports 802.1Q tag-based VLAN. Please follow the instructions to configure. To add new VLAN groups, 1. Fill in a VLAN id from 2 to 4094 in the “VLAN\Port” column.
PVID When the VLAN-enabled switch receives a tagged packet, the packet will be sent to the port’s default VLAN according to the PVID (port VLAN ID) of the receiving port. Items Port Port Number 1~8 Egress Select “tagged” in the drop list to enable the PVID checking and tag inserting of one port, and select “untagged”...
Aggregation/ Trunk Configuration To set up the port trunk groups, put the ports number into the same aggregation group. There are four groups to choose. Don’t forget to click the “Apply” to save the setting. There are three aggregation modes for you to setup, SMAC (Source MAC), DMAC (Destination MAC), and XOR.
Quality of Service QoS enhances the communication quality by giving different precedence to classified packets. This switch provides port-based, tag-based and DSCP QoS modes:...
Page 19
Port-based mode QoS: The port-based QoS allows users to configure certain ports as high or low priority. To give priority level for each port: Select “Port” in the “Mode” column for those ports that are going to perform port-based QoS. Click the “Apply” button. Click the “Port priority”...
Page 20
Tag based QoS: The tag-based QoS decides packet priority according to the tags that adding on the packets. To configure Tag-based QoS configuration: Select “Tagged” in the “Mode” column for those ports that are going to perform tag-based QoS. Click the “Apply” button. Click the “Tag priority”...
Page 21
DSCP mode QoS: The DSCP mode QoS gives packet priority by the precedent types attaching on the incoming packets. The types of precedence: 000 - Routine 001 - Priority 010 - Immediate 011 - Flash 100 - Flash Override 101 - CRITIC/ECP 110 - Internetwork Control 111 - Network Control To configure DSCP Based QoS configuration:...
Mirror The “Mirror” function copies all the packets that are received or transmitted by the source port to the destination port. It allows administrators to analyze and monitor the traffic of the monitored ports. Mirror Configuration: Select those ports that are going to be monitored by marking the checkboxes in “Monitor Port”...
Storm Filter This “storm filter” page allows users to configure the rules for storm control, which limits the flow of broadcast and multicast To perform storm control: Click on each drop list to specify a speed for each frame type. 2.
SNMP This device supports SNMP-management, which allows network administrators to monitor and configure this device with SNMP software. To allow this device to be managed via SNMP: Select “enable” in the drop list. Specify a trap IP. A trap IP is the destination port for sending trap information, which is usually the IP address of network administrators.
Discovery After installing series of LevelOne gigabit web smart switches(GSW-0841/1641/2440), the discovery management tool helps users to search and get access to those switches within the LAN. Note. The discovery tool lists the Maximum 16 devices respectively for auto and manual modes.
Statistics Overview The “Statistics Overview” is provided for users to see the general transmitting and receiving status of each port. You may click the “Clear” button to clean all statistics or click the “Refresh” button to renew the statistics. Detailed Statistics The “Detailed Statistics”...
Restart Restart: To restart the system, click the “Yes” button. The system will restart and show the authentication window. Please fill in the username and password to continue. Factory Default Restore Factory Default: To restore the factory default value, click the “Yes” button. Note: The IP address of the device will also be configured as factory-default setting, which is 192.168.1.1.
