    Max bridge transit delay bound control: You can limit the queuing time of the packets in the switch. If enabled, and the packets queued exceed the time value that has been set, they will be dropped. The valid values are 1sec, 2 sec, 4 sec and “Off”. The default value is 1 second.
  • Page 23 WRR: (Weighted Round Robin). Select the preference given to packets in the switch's high- priority queue. These options represent the number of high-priority packets sent before one low-priority packet is sent. For example, 5 High/2 Low means that the switch sends 5 high priority packets before sending 2 low-priority packets.

    Please refer to the IEEE 802.3ad specifications for more details. 5.4.5.1 Aggregator Setting 1. System Priority: A value used to identify the active LACP. The switch with the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the active LACP.

  • Page 29: Aggregator Information

    2. Group ID: You can configure up to seven trunk groups. Choose the "Group ID" and click "Get". 3. LACP: If enabled, the group is an LACP static trunking group. If disabled, the group is a local static trunking group. All ports support LACP dynamic trunking groups. If connecting to a device that also supports LACP, the LACP dynamic trunking group will be created automatically.
  • Page 30 The page shown below displays the static trunking groups. 3. The page shown below displays “Actor” and “Partner” trunking.

  • Page 31: State Activity

    5.4.5.3 State Activity Active (select): The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets. N/A (not selected): The port does not automatically sends LACP protocol packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device. 1. A link that either has two active LACP ports, or one active port can perform dynamic LACP trunking.

  • Page 34: Static Mac Address

    5.4.6.2 Static MAC Address When you add a static MAC address, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether or not 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.

  • Page 35: Mac Filtering

    1. In the MAC Address box, enter the MAC address that you want to filter. 2. If a tag-based (802.1Q) VLAN is set up on the switch, type the VID in the VLAN ID box to associate with the MAC address.

  • Page 36: Vlan Configuration

    VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent to reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still physically plugged into the same switch.

  • Page 37: Port-Based Vlan

    Port-based VLAN Packets can only be broadcast among members of the same VLAN group. Note that all unselected ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN is enabled, the VLAN-tagging is ignored.

  • Page 38: Q Vlan

    Tag-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible to create a VLAN across devices from different switch vendors. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN uses a technique to insert a “tag” into the Ethernet frames. Tags contain a VLAN Identifier (VID) that indicates the VLAN numbers.

Port VID (PVID) Set the port VLAN ID that will be assigned to untagged traffic on a given port. This feature is useful for accommodating devices that you want to participate in the VLAN but that don’t support tagging.

  • Page 44: Ingress Filtering

    Ingress filtering allows frames that belong to a specific VLAN to be forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. The switch has two ingress filtering rules. They are as follows: Ingress Filtering Rule 1: Only forward packets with VIDs matching this port’s configured VID.

    5.2 Trunking Application Used with Switch runking allows you to increase the available bandwidth between switches by grouping ports into trunk. Trunking can also be used to connect a server to switches if higher bandwidth service is quired. You can use trunking to improve the throughput between segments. Moreover, this itch provides trunking with a fail-over function.
