IP Configuration User can configure the IP Settings and DHCP client function here. • DHCP Client: Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When DHCP client function is enabled, the industrial switch will be assigned an IP address from the network DHCP server. The default IP address will be replaced by the assigned IP address on DHCP server.
DHCP Server—System configuration DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol that is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected.
Figure 3.11: DHCP Server – Client Entries DHCP Server—Port and IP Bindings Assign the dynamic IP address to the port. When the device is connecting to the port and asks for IP assigning, the system will assign the IP address that has been assigned before to the connected device. Figure 3.12: DHCP Server –...

Digital Input/Output The EKI-7657C contains two digital inputs and two digital outputs. The digital inputs may be used to receive the voltage-changing signal of the remote equipment to sense the state of the remote equipment like heater, pump, and other electrical equipment. Therefore the switch can be configured to send system log, SMTP and SNMP traps to syslog server, SMTP server and SNMP trap station respectively (please refer to System Event Log and SNMP configuration section).
3.2.2 Port Port setting includes Port Statistics, Port Control, Port Trunk, Port Mirroring, and Rate Limiting. The user can use this interface to set the parameters and control the packet flow among the ports. Port Statistics The following information provides the current port statistic information. •...
Port Control In Port Control, you can pull down the selection items to set the parameters of each port to control the transmitting/receiving packets. • Port: Select the port that you want to configure. • State: Current port status. The port can be set to disable or enable mode. If the port state is set as ‘Disable’, it will not receive or transmit any packet.
Page 69
Port Trunk The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner.
Figure 3.26: 2 work ports with LACP enabled Aggregator Information When you have set up the aggregator setting with LACP disabled, you will see the local static trunk group information as below. Figure 3.27: 2 work ports with LACP disabled EKI-7657C _Manual_ed1...
Figure 3.28: Static trunking group of 2 ports on single switch When you have set up the aggregator setting of two interconnected switches with LACP enabled, you will see the respective LACP trunk group information as below. ‘Actor’ means the switch which is connecting to the host computer.
Port Mirroring The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Traffic through ports can be monitored by one specific port which means traffic goes in or out monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port. •...
Rate Limiting Here you can set up every port’s frame limitation type and bandwidth rate. • Ingress Limit Frame type: Select the frame type you want to filter. The frame types have 4 options for selecting: All, Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast, and Broadcast only. The four frame type options are for ingress frames limitation.
3.2.3 Protocol The user can set the layer 2 protocol setting via this interface. VLAN configuration A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain, which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same VLAN will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN.

The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is an evolution of the Spanning Tree Protocol and provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. The system also supports STP and the system will auto-detect the connected device that is running STP or RSTP protocol. Chapter3...
RSTP—System Configuration • The user can view spanning tree information of the Root Bridge. • The user can modify RSTP state. After modification, click Apply . RSTP mode: The user must enable the RSTP function first before configuring the related parameters.
• Admin P2P: Some of the rapid state transactions that are possible within RSTP are dependent upon whether the port concerned can only be connected to exactly one other bridge (i.e. it is served by a point-to-point LAN segment), or can be connected to two or more bridges (i.e. it is served by a shared medium LAN segment).
SNMP Configuration Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the protocol developed to manage nodes (servers, workstations, routers, switches and hubs etc.) on an IP network. SNMP enables network administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. Network management systems learn of problems by receiving traps or change notices from network devices implementing SNMP.
A trap manager is a management station that receives the trap messages generated by the switch. If no trap manager is defined, no traps will be issued. Create a trap manager by entering the IP address of the station and a community string. To define a management station as a trap manager, assign an IP address, enter the SNMP community strings, and select the SNMP trap version.

QoS Configuration Here you can configure Qos policy and priority setting, per port priority setting, COS and TOS setting. QoS Policy and Priority Type • Qos Policy: Select the QoS policy rule. Use an 8,4,2,1 weighted fair queuing scheme: The switch will follow 8:4:2:1 rate to process priority queue from High to lowest queue.
Page 89
Port Base Priority Configure the priority level for each port. With the drop-down selection item of Priority Type above being selected as Port-based, this control item will then be available to set the queuing policy for each port. • Port x: Each port has 4 priority levels—High, Middle, Low, and Lowest—to be chosen. •...
IGMP Configuration The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an internal protocol of the Internet Protocol (IP) suite. IP manages multicast traffic by using switches, routers, and hosts that support IGMP. Enabling IGMP allows the ports to detect IGMP queries, report packets, and manage IP multicast traffic through the switch.
Page 91
X-Ring X-Ring provides a faster redundant recovery than Spanning Tree topology. The action is similar to STP or RSTP, but the algorithms between them are not the same. In the X-Ring topology, every switch should be enabled with X-Ring function and two ports should be assigned as the member ports in the ring.
Figure 3.47: X-ring interface Note When the X-Ring function enable, user must disable the RSTP. The X-Ring function and RSTP function cannot exist at the same time. Remember to execute the “Save Configuration” action, otherwise the new configuration will lose when switch power off. EKI-7657C _Manual_ed1...
LLDP Configuration LLDP (Link Layer Discovery Protocol) function allows the switch to advertise its information to other nodes on the network and store the information it discovers. • LLDP Protocol: Disable or enable LLDP function. • LLDP Interval: Set the interval of learning the information time in second. •...
3.2.4 Security In this section, you can configure 802.1x and MAC address table. 802.1X/Radius Configuration 802.1x is an IEEE authentication specification which prevents the client from connecting to a wireless access point or wired switch until it provides authority, like the user name and password that are verified by an authentication server (such as RADIUS server).
Figure 3.50: 802.1x/Radius - Port Setting interface 802.1X/Radius—Misc Configuration • Quiet Period: Set the period which the port doesn’t try to acquire a supplicant. • TX Period: Set the period the port waits for retransmit next EAPOL PDU during an authentication session.
MAC Address Table Use the MAC address table to ensure the port security. You can 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.
Figure 3.53: MAC Filtering interface • MAC Address: Enter the MAC address that you want to filter. • Click • If you want to delete the MAC address from filtering table, select the MAC address and click Delete . MAC Address Table—All MAC Addresses You can view the port that connected device’s MAC address and the related devices’...
MAC Address Table—Multicast Filtering Multicasts are similar to broadcasts, they are sent to all end stations on a LAN or VLAN. Multicast filtering is the system by which end stations only receive multicast traffic if they register to join specific multicast groups.
