Page 18: Connecting The Des-3224 To The Network
Connecting the DES-3224 to another DES-3224 Connecting the DES-3224 to other switches and hubs This section deals with making cables and connecting the DES-3224 to other devices. It is extremely important that cables have the correct pin arrangement and that the proper cables be used when connecting to servers, switches, hubs, workstations and other devices. - Page 19 10/100 Auto Negotiation Switch User’s Guide must use the correct pin arrangement in order for the DES-3224 to work properly. See Figure 4 for an example of straight through and crossover cable. Table 2: Cable Requirements shows the cable specifications.

Page 20: Ports
4. Verify that the LED indicates connection at the proper speed and duplex mode. RS-232 Port The RS-232 Port is located at the rear of the DES-3224. The RS-232 port is a female port that is used for serial communication. By connecting the DES-3224 and a PC you can configure the DES-3224 and check its status and configurations even when the network is down. -
Page 21: Des-3224 To Des-3224 Connection
Connecting the DES-3224 to the DES-5024 and Hubs You can connect the DES-3224 to other switches and hubs on the network. The DES-3224 and the DES-5024 are compatible products that can be connected easily. If you create multiple connections between devices, create Trunked ports for more efficiency. See the section on Port Trunking for more details. -

DES-3224 cannot be reached by any other means. Use Local Console Management to log into the DES-3224 for the first time. You do not need to know the IP address to log into the DES-3224 using Local Console Management. You can change all the settings and configure the DES-3224, set the IP address and perform other management functions. -
Page 26: Telnet
IP address. Once you have assigned an IP address to the DES-3224, you can use the management method of your choice. Telnet management can be done through the MDI-II Uplink port of the DES-3224 or any of the MDI-X ports on either switch. -
Page 27: Log In
The Log In panel, displayed in Figure 6, is the first panel you see when connecting to the DES-3224. All management methods require you to log into the DES-3224 with your user name and password before beginning a management session. For security, you should change the default User Name and Password. -

Page 38: System Rate Control
DES-3224. There are two options: Store & Forward and Cut-Through. Figure 14: System Rate Control The DES-3224 can be set for Store and Forward or Cut-Through. This is a global setting that affects all the ports except the RS-232 port. - Page 39 Advantages of Cut-Through Cut-Through is faster because the packet is sent as soon as the first 128 bytes are received. Cut-Through requires less memory since the DES-3224 only reads the address but does not store the entire message. Disadvantages of Cut-Through Bad packets are perpetuated, taking up bandwidth.

Page 40: Software Update Menu
1. Load the new software to the hard drive of the PC you will be downloading from. Never attempt to load software from the floppy drive. 2. Connect the DES-3224 and the PC with the software on it with the RS-232 cable provided. Use the settings given at the beginning of this chapter. Never attempt to load firmware through Telnet. - Page 41 5. Select Browse on the panel displayed in Figure 17. The browse option shows the contents of your hard drive. You must specify the path from the DES-3224 to the file the firmware is in. Navigate to the file the firmware is stored in and select it. Use XMODEM to transfer the file.
- Page 42 10/100 Auto Negotiation Switch User’s Guide When the transfer is complete you will see the panel in Figure 18. The DES-3224 will reset itself automatically and you will have to log in again. Figure 18: Message Displayed as EEPROM is Being Written...

(using multiple switches or bridges) in your network. These backup paths are idle until the DES-3224 determines that a problem has developed in the primary path. If the primary path breaks down STA will activate the backup path. STA is very complicated and you should understand it well before changing the default settings. -
Page 51: Spanning Tree Algorithm
Bridge then the Hello Time will not take effect until the switch becomes the Root Bridge. Forward Delay Time This is the time any port on the DES-3224 spends in the listening state while moving from the listening state to the forwarding state. It can be set from 4 to 30 seconds. -
Page 52: Root Bridge
10/100 Auto Negotiation Switch User’s Guide Root Bridge Specifies the MAC address of the Root Bridge. The DES-3224 may or may not be the root bridge. The DES-3224 is the default root bridge. Root Port Specifies the preferred path to the Root Bridge. Only one path per bridge can exist. The default setting is none. -
Page 53: Snmp Management Configuration
DES-3224 is running. For example, the number and type of ports on the DES-3224 is a read-only constant. The number and type of ports is fixed. Statistics, such as the number of errors that have occurred, are read-only variables. -
