  • Page 41: Vdsl Mode

    This option enables the uploading of VDSL modem firmware (the default is No) if the subscribers VDSL modem firmware is an older version than that of the VES-1000 Series switch. This ensures that all VDSL clients on the VES-1000 Series switch have the same firmware as the actual switch and avoids potential compatibility conflicts.

  • Page 42: Table 4-D Path Cost

    On each bridge, the root port is the port through which this bridge communicates with the root. It is the port on this switch with the lowest path cost to the root (the root path cost). If there is no root port, then this switch has been accepted as the root bridge of the spanning tree network.

    The switch has 4 physical queues to support the 8 priority levels for each port. On the switch, traffic assigned to higher index queues gets through faster while traffic in lower index queues is dropped if the network is congested.

  • Page 49: Tcp/Ip Setup

    TCP/IP Setup Parameters The VES-1000 Series switch needs a static IP address for it to be managed over the network. The factory default IP address is 192.168.1.1. The administrator needs to assign a static IP address for the VES-1000 Series switch.

  • Page 65: Chapter 8 Snmp Configuration

    An SNMP managed network consists of two main components: agents and a manager. An agent is a management software module that resides in a managed device (the VES-1000 Series switch). An agent translates the local management information from the managed device into a form compatible with SNMP.

  • Page 66: Supported Mibs

    Used by the agent to inform the manager of some events. 8.2 Supported MIBs VES-1000 Series switches support MIB II (defined in RFC-1213 and RFC-1215). The VES-1000 Series switch can also respond with specific data from the ZyXEL private MIBs (zyxel.mib and zyxel-AS.mib). MIBs let administrators collect statistics and monitor status and performance.

    Enter “bin” to set transfer mode to binary. Step 5. Use “put” to transfer files from the computer to the VES-1000 Series switch, for example, “put Step 6. firmware.bin ras” transfers the firmware on your computer (firmware.bin) to the VES-1000 Series switch and renames it “ras”.

  • Page 95: Figure 10-15 Ftp Session Example Of Firmware File Upload

    The file name for the firmware is “ras”. Note that the telnet connection must be active and the VES-1000 Series switch in CI mode before and during the TFTP transfer. For details on TFTP commands (see following example), please consult the documentation of your TFTP client program.
