5. No up-link limitation through Gigabit port.
Unlike stacking mode, up-link in agent mode can be achieved through any port rather than
Gigabit port only. This provides great flexibility as long as network administrator can
access them, and hence Gigabit ports can be saved for other applications.
Typical setup of Single IP network:
There are three typical examples to demonstrate the usage of "Single IP-Agent mode".
1. Master and slave switches in the same LAN domain.
In this example, master switch manages 2 slave switches and 1 router.
Switch IP of master is 192.168.223.100. Set its management mode to "Agent Master".
Since the IP domain of slaves and router are in the IP domain 192.168.223.0, Agent IP of master
should be set as same as switch IP (192.168.223.100).
Add slave1 and slave2 into agent list by auto-discover or by manual. Router can only be added
by manual. A
Switch IP: 192.168.223.100
Agent IP: 192.168.223.100
Gateway: 192.168.223.254
Switch IP: 192.168.223.101
Gateway: 192.168.223.254
Switch IP: 192.168.223.102
Gateway: 192.168.223.254
2. Master and slave switches in different LAN domain.
In this example, master will manage 2 slave switches and 1 router in other IP domain.
dministrator (192.168.223.30) can access those slaves through master.
IP: 192.168.223.30
LAN IP: 192.168.223.254
WAN IP: 211.23.53.250
