C111C Network Setting An IP address is indispensable for a switch to be accessed. The TL-SL2210WEB/TL- SL2218WEB/TL-SL2428WEB/TLSL2452WEB Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch provides the configuration interface of IP address, netmask and default gateway. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol1 is dedicated for the DHCP client to obtain IP configuration information from the DHCP server.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch C1111 Static MAC Address Table A static MAC address table entry contains a MAC address and its corresponding switch port. All the packets taking that MAC address as their destination will be forwarded to the corresponding switch port. The static MAC address won’t age, which differs from the dynamic MAC address.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch C1115 Ping The ping function is to test the connectedness of the link between the switch and destination. VLAN Setting VLANs are logical subgroups with a Local Area Network (LAN1 that combine user stations and network devices into a single unit, regardless of the physical LAN segment to which they are attached.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch IEEE802.1Q Tag VLAN is divided by VLAN ID (VID1. When receiving a frame, the switch checks the VID in the tag header of the frame to decide which VLAN it belongs to. If the receiving frame doesn’t contain the tag header, the switch will assign a tag to the frame, using the PVID of the port as its VID.
Gigabit Uplink Web Smart Switch C1511 Port Default Priority If IEEE802.1p priority mode is configured, when a switch port receives an untagged frame (a frame without priority tag1, the port's default priority tag will be inserted into the frame before any other process. C1512 8011CC Priority In IEEE802.1p priority mode, all packets are classified into four priority classes (lowest,...
