  • Page 3: Introduction

    1 Introduction The NSH-9308P Switch is a high performance web-smart managed switch, which provides up to 8 10/100/1000Mbps copper Ethernet ports. This device provides a great flexibility for nowadays variety of network application at lower cost. User doesn’t have to learn many sophisticated management function which are usually shown in SNMP switch, but just need to learn some simple setting procedures through either out-of-band RS232 port or in-band Ethernet port.

    2 Web management After login through Web Browser, the switch’s main management page will show up. The left part on the page provides the function menus, while the right part provides the individual configuration value or system parameters’ value. Function manus are divided into three categories, they are Configuration, Monitoring and Maintenance, and all functions are shown briefly below.
  • Page 7: Configurations

    2.1 Configurations 2.1.1 System information The system diagram shows common system information, they are H/W, F/W version, MAC address, IP address, subnet mask, IP gateway, default VLAN value of management port, name, password, timeout value, and SNMP communities…etc. Once you changed the settings, it’s needed to press the “Apply“...
  • Page 8: Relocate Http Port Number

    because the IP address of this Switch has been changed. 2.1.1.2 Relocate HTTP port number The default port number of HTTP access is 80, but unauthorized user may intrude this switch if he knows the IP address of this switch. You may relocate this port number to other value, from 1024 to 65535.
  • Page 9: Ports

    2.1.2 Ports Port status page always shows current port status of all 8 ports. User can set link mode, enable or disable flow control and jumbo frame. However, be noticed that the jumbo frame is setting globally, it can’t be set on one port individually. A default diagram is shown below,...
  • Page 10: Port-Based Vlan

    2.1.3 Port-based VLAN Port-based VLAN is a kind of VLAN, which is a group of ports marked by same group ID, different VLAN (different ID) can’t communicate to each other. A default diagram is shown below.
  • Page 11: Tag-Based Vlan

    2.1.4 Tag-based VLAN Tag-based VLAN is another kind of VLAN, which is a group of ports assigned to the same VLAN ID. Different VLAN (different ID) can’t communicate to each other. By default, all ports of the switch were belonged to same VLAN, which ID is 1 (VLAN ID=1). A default diagram is shown below.
  • Page 12 1. VLAN Aware mode: Enabled - Strip VLAN tag from received frame and insert VLAN tag in transmitted frame, except ingress frames which’s VID is the same as PVID. Disabled – Default state, switch doesn’t do VLAN tag stripping and inserting. 2.
  • Page 13: Port Trunking

    2.1.5 Port Trunking Port Trunking defines how to create a single high-speed logical link that combines several low-speed physical links. By default, all ports were set to normal state. You can group multiple ports to a trunk; up to 4 groups are supported. For example, choose port 1 and port 2 into group 1.
  • Page 14: Port Mirroring

    2.1.6 Port Mirroring Set the port mirroring option to monitor data being transmitted through a specific port. A default diagram is shown below. Choose the association of ports you want to implement mirroring function. For example, choose port 2 to be monitored, and port 1 to monitor.
  • Page 15: Quality Of Service

    2.1.7 Quality of Service QoS (Quality of Service) refers to the mechanisms in the Switch’s network software that make the actual determinations of which packets have priority. There are three QoS mode in the Switch: Port-based, 802.1p and DSCP.
  • Page 17: Storm Control

    2.1.8 Storm Control Set storm control limitation to prevent abnormal traffic. Choose frame types that you want to control, and select the limitation. For example, choose Broadcast storm with 3,964 frames per second as upper limit, once the Broadcast frame rate higher than 3,964 frames per second at any of the ports, the special port will be disabled.
  • Page 18: Lacp

    2.1.9 LACP Different from the static port trunking, LACP provides another way to aggregate ports to a group (trunk) dynamically according to IEEE 802.3ad standard. − Protocol Enabled – to enable/disable LACP protocol on a port. − Key Value – a number (1~255) to identify the LACP group for a port. All member ports in a LACP group have the same key values.
  • Page 19: Rstp

    2.1.10 RSTP The Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is IEEE 802.1d standardized method for avoiding loops in switched networks. Enable STP to ensure that only one path at a time is active between any two nodes on the network. The Rapid-Spanning-Tree-Protocol (RSTP) is a more advanced protocol than STP according to IEEE 802.1w standard.
  • Page 20 You can modify the following parameters of RSTP function to accommodate your network. System Configuration System Priority – A value to identify the root bridge. The bridge (switch) with lowest value has the highest priority and will be selected as the root. 16 numbers are provided in this field from 0 to 61440 in increments of 4096, default value is 32768.

    2.1.11 IGMP This switch provides IGMP snooping feature to detect IGMP queries and report packets. This feature can limit the forwarding of multicast frames to certain ports that are members of multicast group. Only IPv4 IGMP frames are recognized for this system. The following parameters are provided for configuring IGMP snooping for this system: IGMP Enabled –...
