Web-baSed broWSer manaGement The Gigabit Web-Smart Switch switch provides an Administration Authority that lets you configure and manage the switch remotely. This section describes how to configure the switch using its Web-based browser management interface. switch access The advanced management capabilities of the switch can be accessed using a standard Internet browser.
Configuration The Configuration menu includes the following subsections: System, Ports, PVLANs, 802.1Q VLANs, Aggregation, MAC Binding, ARL Table, Multicast Configuration, RSTP, Mirroring, Quality of Service, Filter, Rate Limit and Storm Control. system This screen provides the current status of the device. Click “Apply” so any changes that are made will take effect.

through 255, separated by periods. Typically, subnet mask numbers use either 0 or 255 as values (e.g., 255.255.255.0), but other numbers can appear. Fallback Gateway: XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX, where XXX ranges from 0 to 255. Default: 192.168.1.1. Specifies the default gateway IP address. It is only required if you intend to manage the device from another LAN connected via an IP router.
default: 0.0.0.0. This is the IP address of the user’s sNMP management station if it is configured to receive traps and notifications. SNMP Read Community: Any 20 characters. Default: public. This parameter identifies the MIB tree(s) to which this entry authorizes read access. SNMP Write Community: Any 20 characters.
Link: Displays the current link status of each port: “1000MFDX,” “100MFDX,” “100MHDX,” “10MFDX,” “10MHDX” or “Down.” The field lights green and shows the link speed if there is a valid connection on the port. mode: Options are “Auto speed,” “10M/Half,” “10M/Full,” “100M/Half,” “100M/Full,” “1000M/Full”...
VLAN. A trunk can be selected as a VLAN member, but a trunk group needs to be configured first. NOTE: Model 524063 (24-Port) allows up to 12 member ports per trunk; Model 524087 (16-Port) allows up to 8 member ports per trunk.
Page 13
egress rules are the rules applied to all frames when they are transmitted by the switch, as indicated below. From here, you can configure the IEEE 802.1Q tag-based VLAN members. You need to configure the current VLAN mode on the System Configuration screen to be 802.1Q VLAN.
Page 14
Vlan members: Options range from “1” to “24” and “Trunk 01” to “Trunk 08” (default: none selected). These are ports that are allowed to be members of the VLAN. A trunk can be selected as a VLAN member, but a trunk group needs to be configured first.
Vlan aware: Either “Enabled” or “Disabled” (default). When enabled, the VLAN- aware attribute will be enabled; when disabled, the VLAN-unaware attribute will be enabled. The native operation mode for an Ieee 802.1Q-compliant switch is VLAN-aware. Even if a specific network architecture doesn’t use VLANs, the system default VLAN settings allow the switch to still operate in a VLAN-aware mode while providing functionality required for almost any network application.

• Support for up to eight port trunks. NOTE: At least two ports are required to compose a port trunk. • Up to 12 ports can be aggregated in a port trunk for Model 524063 (24-Port); up to 8 ports for Model 524087 (16-Port).
3. Double-check the port trunk configuration on both switches. 4. Reconnect or re-enable the ports. If the port trunk is being configured while the ports are still connected or enabled, the ports will be disabled for a few seconds automatically. Also, consider these function limitations when configuring port trunks: •...
arl table This screen allows you to view MAC addresses of the MAC address table. mac address: XX-XX-XX-XX-XX-XX, where XX ranges 0 to FF. Default: 00-00- 00-00-00-00. Specifies the MAC address to search for. search: Click to start searching for the specified MAC address. NOTE: The MAC address table consists of static addresses, dynamic addresses and the device address.

A consumer may join any number of multicast groups, issuing a membership report for each group. Hosts on the segment note membership reports from other hosts and will suppress their own reports accordingly. In this way, the IGMP protocol guarantees the segment will issue only one join for each group. The router periodically queries each of its segments in order to determine if at least one consumer still subscribes to a given stream.

only to forward multicast traffic. When the querier election process is complete, the switch simply relays IGMP queries received from the querier. When sending IGMP packets, the switch uses its own IP address, if it has one, or an address of 0.0.0.0, if it doesn’t have any assigned IP address (e.g., when sending packets on a non-management VLAN).
rstp The Gigabit Web-smart switch provides these RsTP-related features: • Industry-standard support of the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol, which features a compatibility mode with legacy sTP. • Superior performance, as RSTP will recognize a link failure and put an alternate port into forwarding mode within milliseconds.
Page 22
• While providing a much better performance than STP, IEEE 802.1w RSTP still . required up to a few seconds to restore network connectivity when a topology change occurred. A revised and highly optimized RSTP version (which this switch supports) was defined in the IEEE standard 802.1D-2004 edition and now reduces network recovery times to just milliseconds.

frame transfer. In a network of RsTP bridges, the time spent in this state is usually quite short. RsTP bridges operating in sTP compatibility mode will spend 6 to 40 seconds in this state. After learning, the bridge will place the port in the forwarding state. The port both learns addresses and participates in frame transfer while in this state.

spanning Tree Protocol to support: Normal only supports Rapid spanning Tree Protocol; Compatible supports both STP (802.1d) and RSTP. protocol enabled: Either “Enabled” or “Disabled” (default). Enabled means you’re enabling RSTP for this port as per the configuration in the RSTP Port Configuration menu.
the port is to leave STP enabled but to configure the port as an edge port. A good candidate for disabling sTP would be a port that services a single host computer. You can enable RSTP of all aggregations. edge port: Either “Enabled” (default) or “Disabled.” Edge ports are ports that do not participate in the Spanning Tree, but still send configuration messages.
port, the traffic stream of valid frames on any source port is made available for analysis. select a target port that has a higher speed than the source port. Mirroring a 1000Mbps port onto a 100Mbps port may result in an improperly mirrored stream. Frames will be dropped if the full duplex rate of frames on the source port exceeds the transmission speed of the target port.

Prioritize Traffic: Options are “Custom,” “All Low Priority” (default), “All Normal Priority,” “All Medium Priority” and “All High Priority.” This screen allows you to quickly configure the Port priorities. priority: Options are “low,” “normal,” “medium” and “high.” Default: according to the Priority Traffic option.
filter mode: Options are “Disabled” (default), “Static” and “DHCP.” Specifies the source IP address filter model. Disabled allows all packets to be forwarded; Static allows packets with the specified source IP address to be forwarded while other packets are discarded; DHCP allows packets with a DHCP server assigned as the source IP address to be forwarded.
subnet mask is a 32-bit number that is notated by using four numbers from 0 through 255, separated by periods. Typically, subnet mask numbers use either 0 or 255 as values (e.g., 255.255.255.0), but other numbers can appear. dhcp server allowed: Either “Enabled” or “Disabled” (default). When the DHCP option is configured, enable these parameters;...
policer: Options range from “128” to “3698 Kbps” or “None” (default). This is the rate at which received frames will start to be discarded by the switch. shaper: Options range from “128” to “3698 Kbps” or “None” (default). This is the maximum rate at which the switch will transmit frames on this port.

is automatically turned off in situations where multiple sTP brdges communicate over a shared (non-point-to-point) LAN. The bridge will automatically take point- to-point to be true when the link is found to be operating full duplex. The point- to-point parameter allows this behavior or operates a point-to-point link, but cannot run the link full duplex.
