The below screen shows the Uploading process is starting. Figure 6-9 After firmware is correctly uploaded, the web page shows OK.. Click Continue to re-login the switch. Figure 6-10 Reboot Device Click Confirm button to restart the switch.. Figure 6-11 ...
Port Management 7. Port Management Port Management includes Port Configuration, Port Mirroring, Bandwidth Control, Broadcast Storm Control and PoE. Port Configuration In Port Configuration, you can set and view the operation mode for each port. Figure 7-1 Function: ...
Page 21
Select Port No.: Select the port/ports you want to apply to. You can select one or multiple ports here. Click Update to have the configuration take effect. Port Mirroring The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. That Traffic through ports can be monitored by any of the ports means traffic goes in or out monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port.
Page 22
Port Management Bandwidth Control This page allows the setting of the bandwidth for each port. The TX rate and RX rate can be filled with the number ranging from 1 to 255. This number should be multiplied by the selected bandwidth resolution to get the actual bandwidth.
Page 23
Broadcast Storm Control The switch implements a broadcast storm control mechanism. Tick the check boxes to have them beginning to drop incoming broadcast packets if the received broadcast packet counts reach the threshold defined. Each port’s broadcast storm protection function can be enabled individually by ticking the check boxes.
Page 24
Port Management Users could know per PoE port out power status in this page and also enable or disable per port. Figure 7-6 Port: The port number. Enable: Enable PoE feature of the specific ports. Output Power: The output power of the port.
8. VLAN Setting A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain, which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same VLAN will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch.
Page 26
VLAN Setting VLAN Mode: Displays VLAN mode: port based / Tag based VLAN. Here you can also switch back to Port Based VLAN Mode. Tag Mode: Add tag means the outgoing packet of the selected port will be inserted a 802.1Q tag.
Page 27
VLAN Member in Tag Based Mode In Tag Based Mode you need to define and configure your VLAN groups. Assign the VLAN ID, select the VLAN member ports, assign the PVID and check the configuration result. Figure 8-4 ...
Page 28
VLAN Setting VLAN Member Port Select: Select the VLAN Member here. Figure 8-6 VID Source Port: This table allows you to configure PVID of the port. Select the port number while you add VLAN and select VLAN member ports, the selected ports' PVID will be the VID you typed. Note: One port only can have one PVID.
Page 29
Configuration Steps: First, add your VLAN Groups (identified throughout your network by unique and constant numbers). Start with IDs from 100 and up is often. Starting with 100 gives you enough free room and less compatibility issues. Second, enter “100”...
Per Port Counter 9. Per Port Counter Port Counter This page provides port counter of each port. There are 4 categories: Receive Packet & Transmit Packet / Transmit & Collision / Receive Packet & Drop / Receive & CRC error. Once you change the counter category, the counter will be cleared automatically.
10. QoS Setting Here you can configure QoS policy priority mode and CoS (Class of Service) configuration. QoS (Quality of Service) refers to mechanisms in the network software that make the actual determination of which packets have priority. CoS refers to feature sets, or groups of services, that are assigned to users based on company policy.
Page 32
QoS Setting Port, 802.1p, IP / DS based The page allows you to enable Port Based, VLAN Tag or IP/DS mode of COS. Figure 10-2 Class of Service Configuration Enable High Priority: After Enabled High Priority, the following enabled Port Based parameter will become High Priority.
Page 33
TCP / UDP Port Based This page allows users to define the Option type of the pre-defined protocols or user-defined protocols. Select the Option of the Protocol as below figure shown. Figure 10-3 The Class of Service for TCP/UDP port number allows the network administrator to assign the specific application to a priority queue.
Security 11. Security The Security feature allows you to enable Port Security (MAC Address Binding) and TCP_UDP Filter feature. MAC Address Binding This is also known as Port Security function of some other switch. The feature allows you to bind 1-3 MAC address to one physical port.
Page 35
TCP / UDP Filter Figure 11-2 Function Enable: To Enable or Disable the function. Port Filtering Rule: The outgoing packet with selected protocol will be either forwarded or dropped at secure WAN port as the figure shown below. ...
Spanning Tree 12. Spanning Tree The switch supports IEEE 802.1D-2004 STP protocol, the RSTP protocol can backward compatible to legacy Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). STP Bridge Settings Figure 12-1 STP Mode: Disable, STP and RSTP. Select the STP version you want to enable. ...
Page 37
STP Port Settings The STP Port Setting page allows you to change the port priority and its path cost. After STP/RSTP is enabled, the system automatically assigns the port priority and path cost to the port. Normally, it is necessary to change the parameters, however, you may need to control the root switch or block port in some condition.
Page 38
Spanning Tree Loopback Detection Settings In some condition, the users may incorrectly connect the wrong cable and lead the port loop. The Loopback Detection feature can help you leave the risk. Figure 12-3 Loopback Detection Function: This column allows you to enable or disable Loopback Detection function.
13. Trunking Port trunk allows multiple links to be bundled together and act as a single physical link for increased throughput. It provides load balancing, and redundancy of links in a switched inter-network. Actually, the link does not have an inherent total bandwidth equal to the sum of its component physical links.
Page 40
Trunking System Priority: This column allows you to configure the system priority for LACP. Set a value between 1 and 65535. The default value is 1. The higher the number, the lower the priority. The system priority controls which links between LACP partner switches are active and determines the standby status of the links for each LACP port channel.
14. Backup / Recovery This function provides the users with a method to backup / recovery the switch configuration. The users can save configuration file to a specified file. If the users want to recover the original configuration, which is saved at the specified path, just enter the password and then press the upload button.
Miscellaneous 15. Miscellaneous Miscellaneous setting is used to configure output queue aging time, VLAN stride and IGMP snooping. Figure 15-1 Output Queue Aging Time: Purpose: This function is used to avoid the traffic jam on one port will not cause the congestion of other ports.
Page 43
VLAN Striding: Purpose: For some network environment, the network administrator probably wanst to filter undesired broadcast or multicast packet to enhance the network bandwidth utilization and forward meaningful unicast to a specific destination. VLAN is a good mechanism to block broadcast packet, but it can also block the unicast packet communication between VLANs.
Page 44
Miscellaneous VLAN Uplink Setting: If VLAN uplink function is enabled and the destination port of an unicast packet is located at the next VLAN, this packet will be forwarded to the uplink port. Choose the Uplink Port X for the port ID. The Uplink X will be the uplink port of its VLAN.
16. Logout The administrator has write access for all parameters governing the onboard agent. Users should therefore assign a new administrator password as soon as possible, and store it in a safe place. After finished configuring the switch, you can click Logout to leave the configuration page. Figure 16-1 ...
Restoring Default Settings 17. Restoring Default Settings Follow the steps below to restore the switch to its default settings using the Reset button on the front panel of the switch. Note: After restoring default settings, you will need to configure IP address, ID and Password again.
