User Manual Fig. 2-9 the Login Screen for Web 2-1-4. IP Address Assignment For IP address configuration, there are three parameters needed to be filled in. They are IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS. IP address: The address of the network device in the network is used for internetworking communication.
Page 25
With the classful addressing, it divides IP address into three classes, class A, class B and class C. The rest of IP addresses are for multicast and broadcast. The bit length of the network prefix is the same as that of the subnet mask and is denoted as IP address/X, for example, 192.168.1.0/24.
Page 26
User Manual Class D and E: Class D is a class with first 4 MSB (Most significance bit) set to 1-1-1-0 and is used for IP Multicast. See also RFC 1112. Class E is a class with first 4 MSB set to 1-1-1-1 and is used for IP broadcast.
Page 27
In this diagram, you can see the subnet mask with 25-bit long, 255.255.255.128, contains 126 members in the sub-netted network. Another is that the length of network prefix equals the number of the bit with 1s in that subnet mask. With this, you can easily count the number of IP addresses matched.

Packet transmission will be delayed if the rate exceeds the value you set up in Data Rate field. Traffic may be lost if egress buffers run full. The format of the packet limits to unicast, broadcast and multicast.
3-6. QoS(Quality of Service) Configuration offers 5 kinds of powerful QoS functions. There are Per Port switch Priority that you can assign each port to different precedence, VLAN Tag priority that can make precedence of 8 priorities to meet 802.1p standard, IP TOS Classification affected by TOS fields of IP header, TCP/UDP Port Classification and IP DiffServe Classification act on DSCP field of IP Header.
Page 69
Function name: Per Port Priority Function description: We can assign QoS Priority, including High and Low for each port. For example, if we transmit IP packets from Port 2 and Port 3 at the speed of 1Gbps to Port 1, and set the Class of Port 2 as High and Port 3 as Low, then the packets of Port 3 will be dropped when the congestion happens because Port 2 owns higher precedence of transmitting packets.
Page 70
User Manual Function name: VLAN Tag Priority Function description: In vlan tag, there are 3 bits belonging to priority. According to these 3 bits, we could arrange 8 traffics –0 0 0, 0 0 1, 0 1 0, 0 1 0, 1 0 0, 1 0 1, 1 1 0, 1 1 1. We can set High priority or Low priority for each traffic class.

Basically, it is passive except issuing the trap information. The switch supports a switch to turn on or off the SNMP agent. If you set the field SNMP “Enable”, SNMP agent will be started up. All supported MIB OIDs, including RMON MIB, can be accessed via SNMP manager.
Page 79
Default port number :162 Trap: In the switch, there are four trap hosts supported. Each of them has its own community name and IP address; is user-definable. To set up a trap host means to create a trap manager by assigning an IP address to host the trap message.
IP multicast packets are running over the network. This is because a switch that does not support IGMP or IGMP Snooping can not tell the multicast packet from the broadcast packet, so it can only treat them all as the broadcast packet.
Page 81
Passive: In Passive Snooping mode, the IGMP snooping will not periodically poll the hosts in the groups. The switch will send a Membership Query message to all hosts only when it has received a Membership Query message from a router.
Parameter description: Jumbo Frame(bytes): Set up the maximum length of the packet that each port of the switch can accept. Maximum length can be up to 1532 bytes or 9208 bytes. The default is 1532 bytes.
At this moment, a bunch of switch or other network device on the LAN will try its best to find the server to get the services or try to set up the predefined links, they will issue many broadcast packets in the network.
<Apply> button, the settings will take effect immediately. Parameter description: VLAN Mode: Disable: Stop VLAN function on the switch. In this mode, no VLAN is applied to the switch. This is the default setting. Port-based: Port-based VLAN is defined by port. Any packet coming in or outgoing from any one port of a port-based VLAN will be accepted.
Page 85
Metro Mode: The Metro Mode is a quick configuration VLAN environment method on Port-based VLAN. It will create 10 or 11 Port-based VLAN groups. Double-tag: Double-tag mode belongs to the tag-based mode, however, it would treat all frames as the untagged ones, which means that tag with PVID will be added into all packets.
Page 86
2 members are formed. 11&12: Except Port 11 and Port 12, each port of the switch cannot transmit packets with each other. Each port groups a VLAN with Port 11 and Port 12, thus, total 10 groups consisting of 3 members are formed.

Function description: User can set the following Spanning Tree parameters to control STP function enable/disable, select mode RSTP/STP and affect STP state machine behavior to send BPDU in this switch. The default setting of Spanning Tree Protocol is “Disable”. Parameter description: Spanning Tree Protocol: Set 802.1W Rapid STP function Enable / Disable.
Page 109
Two options are offered for the user’s choosing STP algorithm. One is RSTP and the other is STP. If STP is chosen, RSTP will run as a legacy STP. The switch supports RSTP (802.1w) which is backward compatible with STP (802.1d).
Root Port more possibly. Configured Path Cost: The range is 0 – 200,000,000. In the switch, if path cost is set to be zero, the STP will get the recommended value resulted from auto-negotiation of the link accordingly and display this value in the field of Path Cost Status.

User Manual 3-16. 802.1x Configuration 802.1x port-based network access control provides a method to restrict users to access network resources via authenticating user’s information. This restricts users from gaining access to the network resources through a 802.1x-enabled port without authentication. If a user wishes to touch the network through a port under 802.1x control, he (she) must firstly input his (her) account name for authentication and waits for gaining authorization before sending or receiving any packets from a 802.1x-enabled port.
Page 121
PC A, then, is allowed to access B and C via the switch. If there are two switches directly connected together instead of single one, for the link connecting two switches, it may have to act two port roles at the end of the link: authenticator and supplicant, because the traffic is bi-directional.
Page 122
EAPOL and the left side is EAP. At the initial stage, the supplicant A is unauthenticated and a port on switch acting as an authenticator is in unauthorized state. So the access is blocked in this stage.
Page 123
If user ID and password is correct, the authentication server will send a Radius-Access-Accept to the authenticator. If not correct, the authentication server will send a Radius-Access-Reject. When the authenticator PAE receives a Radius-Access-Accept, it will send an EAP-Success to the supplicant. At this time, the supplicant is authorized and the port connected to the supplicant and under 802.1x control is in the authorized state.
Page 124
User Manual Only MultiHost 802.1X is the type of authentication supported in the switch. In this mode, for the devices connected to this port, once a supplicant is authorized, the devices connected to this port can access the network resource through this port.
