Desktop Installation Set the switch on a sufficiently large flat space with a power outlet nearby. The surface where the user put the switch should be clean, smooth, level and sturdy. Make sure there is enough clearance around the switch to allow attachment of cables, power cord and allow air circulation.
[NOTE] For proper ventilation, it allows about at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance on the front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) on the back of the Switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installation. Power On Connect the power cord to the power socket on the rear panel of the Switch. The other side of power cord connects to the power outlet.
Network Application This section provides you a few samples of network topology in which the switch is used. In general, the ES-5226RS is designed as a segment switch which with its large address table (4k MAC address) and high performance, it is ideal for interconnecting networking segments.
Segment Uplink In the illustration below, two Ethernet switches (with PCs, print server, and local server attached) are connected via 1000-FX or 10/100/1000Base-TX cable. All the devices in this network can communicate with each other through the switches. Connecting servers to the switch allows other users to access the data on server.
Web-Based Management This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management. About Web-based Management An embedded HTML web site resides in flash memory on the CPU board of the switch. It offers advanced management features and allows users to manage the switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.

Authentication Configuration Change web management login user name and password for the management security issue. Username: Type in the new user name (The default value is ‘admin’). Password: Type in the new password (The default value is ‘1234’).
System IP Configuration User can configure the IP Settings and DHCP client function in here. IP Address: Manually assign the IP address that the network is using. If DHCP function is enabled, the user doesn’t need to assign the IP address. And, the network DHCP server will assign the IP address displaying in this column for the switch.
System Status This page displays the information about the switch’s MAC address, how many ports it has, system version and kernel version. Besides, users can also fill in up to 12 characters in the Comment field for note. MAC Address: Displays the unique hardware address assigned by manufacturer (default).

Port Management Port Management includes Port Configuration, Port Mirroring, Bandwidth Control, and Broadcast Storm Control. Port Configuration In Port Configuration, you can set and view the operation mode for each port. Auto-Negotiation: Enable and Disable. Being set as ‘Enable’, the Speed, Duplex mode, Pause, Backpressure, TX Capability and Address Learning are negotiated automatically.
Port Mirroring The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. That Traffic through ports can be monitored by any of the ports means traffic goes in or out monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port. Port Mirroring interface Dest Port: Tick the check boxes beneath the port number label to be the destination (mirroring) port for monitoring Rx only, Tx only or both RX and TX...
Bandwidth Control You can set up every port’s frame limitation type and bandwidth rate. Bandwidth Control interface Speed Base: Pull down the selection menu item to choose the speed base in low or high mode. As the picture shows, Port No: Pull down the selection menu to choose a port to be configured.
Page 27
Tx Rate: Pull down the selection menu to choose the transmitting rate. When Speed Base is set as Low, the transmitting rate for all the ports is in the range between 32K bytes and 8M bytes. When Speed Base is set as High, the transmitting rate for port 1 ~ 24 is in the range between 256K bytes and 64M bytes;...
Broadcast Storm Control The switch implements a broadcast storm control mechanism. Tick the check boxes to have them beginning to drop incoming broadcast packets if the received broadcast packet counts reach the threshold defined. Each port’s broadcast storm protection function can be enabled individually by ticking the check boxes. Broadcast Storm Control interface Threshold: Type in the threshold in the range between 1 and 63 to limit the maximum byte counts, which a port can send or receive in a period of time.
VLAN Setting 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. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch.
Page 30
VLAN Member Setting (Port Based) interface...
VLAN Mode Tagged-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible to create a VLAN across devices from different switch venders. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN uses a technique to insert a “tag” into the Ethernet frames. Tag contains a VLAN Identifier (VID) that indicates the VLAN numbers. Please notice that this page is only for Tag Based VLAN.
Page 32
care, and RemoveTag—for selecting. Uplink: In normal operation, if the destination and source are located in different VLANs, the packets will be dropped. Having ticked the radio button, the port is configured as an up-link port which is used in an application such as virus check or firewall.
VLAN PVID Index Setting The switch supports a 32-entry VLAN table to provide 32 active VLANs out of 4096 VLANs defined in IEEE802.1Q. User can define 32 VID entries in the VID table and enable the tag VLAN function. When a tagged packet is received, the switch compares the VID field in the packet with the ones defined in the VID table.
Per Port Counter This page displays the statistics of each port. Four counter categories—Receive Packet & Transmit Packet, Collision Count & Transmit Packet, Drop Packet & Receive Packet, and CRC error Packet & Receive Packet—are available to be chosen. Receive Packet & Transmit Packet: Displays the counts of received and transmitted packets of each port.
QoS Setting Here you can configure QoS policy priority mode and CoS (Class of Service) configuration. QoS (Quality of Service) refers to mechanisms in the network software that make the actual determination of which packets have priority. CoS refers to feature sets, or groups of services, that are assigned to users based on company policy.
Priority Mode There are three priority modes available to specify the priority of packets being serviced. Those include First-In-First-Out, All-High-Before-Low, and Weight-Round-Robin. First-In-First-Out: Packets are placed into the queue and serviced in the order they were received. All-High-Before-Low: The packets of low weight will be serviced after all of the packets of high weight are serviced.
Class of Service Configuration Class of Service (CoS) is a 3-bit field within a layer two Ethernet frame header using IEEE 802.1Q. Class of Service (CoS) is a way of managing traffic in a network by grouping similar types of traffic (for example, e-mail, streaming video, voice, large document file transfer) together and treating each type as a class with its own level of service priority.

Security Filter This function provides the security which only the MAC addresses bound with the port are allowed to access it. Port No: Displays the port number being assigned the MAC addresses. MAC Address: Users can assign up to 3 MAC addresses to the port. Read: Pull down the selection bar to choose a port number and click the Read button to show the MAC addresses bound with the port or modify the MAC addresses.
Trunk Port trunk allows multiple links to be bundled together and act as a single physical link for increased throughput. It provides load balancing, and redundancy of links in a switched inter-network. Actually, the link does not have an inherent total bandwidth equal to the sum of its component physical links.
