Web-based management. Conventions References in this manual to the DES-6300 are frequently written simply as “Switch” or “Switches” where the text applies to both models. Model numbers are normally used only to differentiate between specific Switches where necessary. Unless differentiated by model number, all information applies to both models.

To install, attach the mounting brackets on the Switch’s front panel (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided.
Page 18: Installing Modules
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Installing Modules The DES-6300 supports up to 6 modules that can be installed into the module bays. Networking modules are warm-swappable, meaning they can be added and removed while power to the switch is ON. After warm-swapping a networking module, the switch will automatically be rebooted.
Page 19: Connecting A Terminal
Figure 2- 4. Installing a Module Connecting a Terminal The DES-6300 can perform basic switching functions without special configuration, but to use the Switch’s advanced features you must first configure the unit through a terminal (a VT-100 serial data terminal or a computer running a VT-100 emulator). The connection is made through the Switch’s Diagnostic RS-232 port, which is configured at the factory as follows:...

Switch To End Node End nodes include PCs outfitted with a Network Interface Card (NIC) and most routers. For twisted-pair (copper) connections, the RJ-45 UTP ports on NICs and most routers are MDI-II.

Page 30: Switch Management Concepts
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide WITCH ANAGEMENT ONCEPTS This chapter discusses many of the features used to manage the switch, and explains many concepts and important points regarding these features. Configuring the Switch to implement these concepts is discussed in detail in the next chapters. IP Addresses and SNMP Community Names Each Switch has its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager or other TCP/IP application (for example BOOTP, TFTP, etc.).
Page 31: Mibs
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide The following are trap types a trap manager will receive: Cold Start – This trap signifies that the Switch has been powered up and initialized such that software settings are reconfigured and hardware systems are rebooted.
Page 32: Packet Forwarding
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Packet Forwarding The Switch learns the network configuration and uses this information to forward packets. This reduces the traffic congestion on the network, because packets, instead of being transmitted to all segments, are transmitted to the destination only. Example: if Port 1 receives a packet destined for a station on Port 2, the Switch transmits that packet through Port 2 only, and transmits nothing through the other ports.
Page 33: Spanning Tree Algorithm
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Spanning Tree Algorithm The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) in the Switch allows you to create alternative paths (with multiple switches or other types of bridges) in your network. These backup paths are idle until the Switch determines that a problem has developed in the primary paths.
Page 34: On The Port Level
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide On The Port Level Root Port – Each switch has a Root Port. This is the port that has the lowest Path Cost to the Root Bridge. In case there are several such ports, then the one with the lowest Port Identifier is the Root Port.
Page 35: Illustration Of Sta
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Illustration of STA A simple illustration of three Bridges (or the Switch) connected in a loop is depicted in Figure 5- 1. In this example, you can anticipate some major network problems if the STA assistance is not applied.

Page 37: Vlan Features
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide The device VLANs are defined as groups of physical interfaces or ports that share the same network protocols. Once a VLAN is defined, bridging is performed within the VLAN. For example, if a DECnet VLAN is defined on ports 2 and 3, all DEC traffic between these ports are bridged.
Page 38: Broadcast Storms
However, with the advent of VLANs, switches are now able to limit broadcast domains better and cheaper than routers. Also, many switches, including the DES-6300 series, have broadcast sensors and filters built into each port to further control broadcast storms.
Page 39: Eliminating Broadcast Storms
(below a falling threshold), the SNMP agent can remove the blocking condition, returning the port to its normal operational state. In the DES-6300 switch, the default rising threshold is met when more than 500 broadcast packets per second are being detected on a specified port. Once the rising threshold is surpassed for a duration of more than 5 seconds, it will trigger the broadcast storm rising action configured by the user.

Page 41: Configuring The Switch
Modular L3 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide ONFIGURING THE WITCH This section will help configure the Switch user by describing the ConfigMaster program. ConfigMaster is an intricate SNMP-based network management system that operates as an applet and as an application. ConfigMaster configures, monitors, and troubleshoots networking devices both locally at the management console, or remotely using a standard Web browser.
