Page 9: Introduction
Introduction The ZT8101 board is a high performance managed switch that supports both Layer 2 and Layer 3 features. For fast connection speeds and flexibility, it has 24 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports and 2 gigabit Ethernet ports in a 6U CompactPCI* form factor board. The in-chassis switch minimizes external wiring and needs no extra rack height, thus improving density and reliability. -

Page 21: Switch Management And Operating Concepts
It also describes many of the features available for managing the switch. The instructions for configuring the switch are in chapter 4 (Telnet Console) and chapter 5 (Web Console). Managing the Switch The ZT8101 switch has three methods for configuring switch parameters and viewing switch status and statistics: •... -
Page 22: Switch Ip And Mac Addresses
All ports have a traffic limit because they have a limited buffer space to receive incoming frames. Upon reaching the limit, a port either starts dropping packets or triggers flow control. The ZT8101 switch uses the following methods for flow control: •... -
Page 23: Port Security And Mac Address Learning
BOOTP/DHCP server is not on the same IP interface as the end station. You can configure the switch so that the messages are forwarded from one interface to the appropriate server on another interface. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -

• The aging time for dynamic entries is 20 minutes. This value is not configurable. • The table can be up to 2 KB in size. • Up to 32 static entries are allowed in the table. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 26: Router Ports
Filtering A filtering database is used to segment the network and control communication between segments. It can also filter packets off the network for intrusion control. Static filtering entries can be made by MAC or IP addresses. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 27: Mac Address Filtering
You can select which traffic is mirrored. For a given mirrored port (or source port), you can select to mirror only incoming traffic, only outgoing traffic, or both. When mirroring ports, remember the following: • The source port cannot be the target port. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 28: Spanning Tree Protocol
Reconfigures the spanning tree without operator intervention. STP Levels and Parameters The ZT8101 switch allows for two levels of operation: the switch level and the port level. The switch level forms a spanning tree consisting of links between one or more switches. The port level constructs a spanning tree consisting of groups of one or more ports. -
Page 29: Stp Parameters For The Switch Level
A value used by STP to evaluate paths. STP calculates • 19 for 100 Mbps Fast Port Cost path costs and selects the path with the minimum cost Ethernet ports as the active path. • 4 for 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 30: Link Aggregation
When a link change event occurs in the group, the anchor port may be re-elected. The ZT8101 supports six link aggregation groups, which may include from 2 — 8 switch ports each, except for a gigabit link aggregation group, which consists of the two gigabit Ethernet ports on the front panel. -
Page 31: Vlans
• Switches that use a load-balancing scheme that sends the packets of a host-to-host data stream over multiple ports cannot have a trunk connection with the ZT8101 switch. • Enable the group prior to connecting any cable between the switches to avoid creating a data loop. -
Page 32: Static Ieee 802.1Q Vlans
You can enable or disable the following per port for IEEE 802.1Q VLANs: • GVRP • Ingress Checking GVRP GVRP (Group VLAN Registration Protocol) must be enabled globally on the switch before individual ports can be enabled. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 33: Ingress Checking
Broadcast Storm Control and VLANs The ZT8101 switch has broadcast sensors and filters built into each port to control broadcast storms, but VLANs can also be used to segment broadcast domains. They do this by forwarding packets only to ports that are members of the same VLAN. -
Page 34: Layer 3-Based Vlans
VLAN membership. These VLANs are based on Layer 3 information, but this does not constitute a “routing” function. Note: The ZT8101 allows an IP subnet to be configured for each 802.1Q VLAN that exists on the switch. Even though a switch inspects a packet's IP address to determine VLAN membership, no route calculation is performed, the RIP protocol is not employed, and packets traversing the switch are bridged using the Spanning Tree algorithm. -
Page 35: Additional Ip Interfaces
255.224.0.0, can be entered into the Setup IP Interface form. IP interfaces consist of two parts—a subnet mask and an IP address. Each IP interface listed above provides a maximum of 2,097,150 unique IP addresses per interface (assuming the 10.xxx.xxx.xxx notation). ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 36: Multicasting
Multicasting relies on the concept of nodes joining and leaving multicast groups. Nodes use IGMP to join and then leave a multicast group. Based on the IGMP reports the switch receives from the nodes, it can decide whether to forward a multicast packet on a particular interface. ZT8101 User’s Manual... -
Page 37: Igmp Queriers
Switch Management and Operating Concepts The ZT8101 switch supports both IGMPv1 and IGMPv2. You can select which version to use on a particular VLAN. IGMPv2 is an enhancement to the original IGMP and includes a few extensions such as a procedure for the election of the multicast querier for each LAN, explicit leave messages for faster pruning, and group-specific query messages. -
Page 38: Igmp Group Settings
This section presents an overview of routing protocols that the switch supports. The Routing Information Protocol (RIP) is a distance-vector protocol that uses hop count as its criteria for making routing decisions. The ZT8101 switch supports both RIP v1 and RIP v2. You can configure the following RIP options: •... -
Page 39: Protocol-Independent Multicast - Dense Mode (Pim-Dm)
(at some point in the future), the protocol periodically removes the prune information from its database and floods multicast messages to all interfaces on that branch. The interval for removing prune information is the join/prune interval. ZT8101 User’s Manual... - Page 40 Switch Management and Operating Concepts ZT8101 User’s Manual...

Page 41: Using The Telnet Console
Using the Telnet Console Your ZT8101 Fast Ethernet Switch supports a console management interface that allows you to set up and control your switch, either with an ordinary terminal (or terminal emulator) or over a TCP/ IP network using a Telnet application. This chapter describes how to use the Telnet Console to access the switch, change its settings, and monitor its operation. -
Page 42: Vlan Layout
Protocol to block the redundant link until it is needed. VLAN Layout VLANs on the ZT8101 switch have more functions than on a traditional Layer 2 switch and must therefore be laid-out and configured with more care. Layer 3 VLANs could be thought of as network links rather than as a collection of associated end users. -
