3.2.2 Port Port Statistics The following information provides the current port statistic information. • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Port: The port number. Type: Displays the current speed of connection to the port. Link: The status of linking—‘Up’ or ‘Down’. State: It’s set by Port Control. When the state is disabled, the port will not transmit or receive any packet. Tx Good Packet: The counts of transmitting good packets via this port.
• Click Apply button to apply the configuration. Figure 3.24: Port Control Port Trunk The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner.
Figure 3.25: Aggregator Setting Aggregator Information When you have setup the aggregator setting with LACP disabled, you will see the local static trunk group information here. Figure 3.26: Aggregator Information State Activity When you had setup the LACP aggregator, you can configure port state activity. You can mark or unmark the port. When you mark the port and click Apply button the port state activity will change to Active. Opposite is Passive.
• Active: The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets. • Passive: The port does not automatically send LACP protocol packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device. Note A link having either two active LACP ports or one active port can perform dynamic LACP trunk. A link has two passive LACP ports will not perform dynamic LACP trunk because both ports are waiting for an LACP protocol packet from the opposite device.
Figure 3.28: Port Mirroring Rate Limiting You can set up every port’s bandwidth rate and frame limitation type. • Ingress Limit Frame type: select the frame type that wants to filter. The frame types have 4 options for selecting: All, Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast and Broadcast only. Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast and Bbroadcast only types are only for ingress frames. The egress rate only supports All type.
Figure 3.
3.2.3 Protocol VLAN configuration 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 VLAN will receive traffic from the same members of VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically.
Figure 3.31: Port based mode • Pull down the select item menu of VLAN Operation Mode, and select Port Based mode.
Figure 3.32: Port based mode-Add interface • You will see the VLAN displays. • Use Delete button to delete unwanted VLAN. • Use Edit button to modify existing VLAN group. Note Remember to execute the “Save Configuration” action, otherwise the new configuration will lose when switch power off. 802.1Q VLAN Tagged-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible to create a VLAN across devices from different switch venders. IEEE 802.
Figure 3.33: 802.1Q VLAN Configuration 802.1Q Configuration • Pull down the select item menu of VLAN Operation Mode, and select Port Based mode. • Enable GVRP Protocol: mark the check box to enable GVRP protocol that allows network devices to dynamically exchange VLAN configuration information with other devices. If GVRP protocol is not enabled, user has to set the tagging information manually. • Select the port that you want to configure. • Link Type: there are 3 types of link type.
Figure 3.34: Edit Group Configuration interface • You can Change the VLAN group name and VLAN ID. • Click Apply . Figure 3.
Rapid Spanning Tree The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is an evolution of the Spanning Tree Protocol and provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. The system also supports STP and the system will auto detect the connected device that is running STP or RSTP protocol. RSTP - System Configuration • User can view spanning tree information about the Root Bridge • User can modify RSTP state.
RSTP - Port Configuration You can configure path cost and priority of every port. • Select the port in Port column. • Path Cost: The cost of the path to the other bridge from this transmitting bridge at the specified port. Enter a number 1 through 200000000. • Priority: Decide which port should be blocked by priority in LAN. Enter a number 0 through 240. The value of priority must be the multiple of 16.
SNMP Configuration Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the protocol developed to manage nodes (servers, workstations, routers, switches and hubs etc.) on an IP network. SNMP enables network administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth. Network management systems learn of problems by receiving traps or change notices from network devices implementing SNMP.
Trap Configuration A trap manager is a management station that receives traps, the system alerts generated by the switch. If no trap manager is defined, no traps will issue. Create a trap manager by entering the IP address of the station and a community string. To define management stations as trap manager and enter SNMP community strings and selects the SNMP version. • IP Address: Enter the IP address of trap manager. • Community: Enter the community string.

Access Table Configure SNMP v3 access table. • • • • • • • Context Prefix: Set up the context name. Group Name: Set up the group. Security Level: Set up the access level. Context Match Rule: Select the context match rule. Read View Name: Set up the read view. Write View Name: Set up the write view. Notify View Name: Set up the notify view. • Click Add to add context name. • Click Remove to remove unwanted context name. MIBview Table Configure MIB view table. • ViewName: Set up the name.
QoS Configuration You can configure Qos policy and priority setting, per port priority setting, COS and TOS setting. QoS Policy and Priority Type • Qos Policy: select the Qos policy rule. ¾ Use an 8,4,2,1 weighted fair queuing scheme: The switch will follow 8:4:2:1 rate to process priority queue from High to Lowest queue.
Figure 3.41: QoS Configuration interface Port Base Priority Configure per port priority level. • Port 1 ~ Port 10: each port has 4 priority levels – High, Middle, Low, and Lowest. • Click Apply . COS Configuration Set up the COS priority level. • COS priority: Set up the COS priority level 0~7 –High, Middle, Low, Lowest. • Click Apply .
TOS Configuration Set up the TOS priority. • TOS priority: the system provides 0~63 TOS priority level. Each level has 4 types of priority – high, middle, low, and lowest. The default value is “Lowest” priority for each level. When the IP packet is received, the system will check the TOS level value in the IP packet that has received. For example, user set the TOS level 25 is high. The port 1 is following the TOS priority policy only.
Figure 3.42: IGMP Configuration interface X-Ring X-Ring provides a faster redundant recovery than Spanning Tree topology. The action is similar to STP or RSTP, but the algorithms not the same. In the X-Ring topology, every switch should enable X-Ring function and assign two member ports in the ring. Only one switch in the X-Ring group would be set as a master switch, one of its path would be blocked, called backup port, and another port is called working port.
• Enable Dual Ring: When this check box is marked, the ‘Enable Ring Master’ check box will then also be enabled by the system which means this equipment is assigned as the Ring Master. The Dual Ring differs from the Couple Ring in that it only needs a unit to form a redundant linking system of two rings. • And then, click Apply to apply the configuration.

3.2.4 Security In this section, you can configure 802.1x and MAC address table. 802.1X/Radius Configuration 802.1x is an IEEE authentication specification that allows a client to connect to a wireless access point or wired switch but prevents the client from gaining access to the Internet until it provides authority, like a user name and password that are verified by a separate server. 802.1X/Radius - System Configuration After enabling the IEEE 802.
Figure 3.45: 802.1x/Radius - Port Setting interface 802.1X/Radius - Misc Configuration • Quiet Period: set the period during which the port doesn’t try to acquire a supplicant. • TX Period: set the period the port wait for retransmit next EAPOL PDU during an authentication session. • Supplicant Timeout: set the period of time the switch waits for a supplicant response to an EAP request. • Server Timeout: set the period of time the switch waits for a server response to an authentication request.
MAC Address Table Use the MAC address table to ensure the port security. You can add a static MAC address; it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether 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. You can add / modify / delete a static MAC address.

Type: Displays the current speed of connection to the port. Link: The status of linking—‘Up’ or ‘Down’. State: It’s set by Port Control. When the state is disabled, the port will not transmit or receive any packet. Tx Good Packet: The counts of transmitting good packets via this port.
• Security: when its state is “On” that means this port accepts only one MAC address. • Click ‘Apply’ button to apply the configuration. Figure C.33: Port Control C.2.3 Port Status In Port Status, you can view every port status that depends on user setting and the negotiation result. Figure C.34: Port Status • Port No.: select the port that you want to configure. • State: current port status. The port can be set to disable or enable mode.
C.2.4 Port Trunk The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner. Link aggregation lets you group up to 4 consecutive ports into two dedicated connections.
Figure C.36: Port Trunk Status C.2.5 Port Mirroring The Port mirroring is a method for monitor traffic in switched networks. Traffic through ports can be monitored by one specific port. That means traffic goes in or out monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirror (destination) port. • Rx Destination Port: There is only one port can be selected to be destination (mirror) port for monitoring RX traffic which come from source port. User can connect mirror port to LAN analyzer or Netxray.
Here you can set up every port’s bandwidth rate and frame limitation type. • Ingress Limit Frame type: select the frame type that wants to filter. The frame types have 4 options for selecting: All, Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast and Broadcast only. Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast and Bbroadcast only types are only for ingress frames. The egress rate only supports All type. • All the ports support port ingress and egress rate control.
C.3 Protocol C.3.1 VLAN VLAN configuration 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 VLAN will receive traffic from the same members of VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically.
Figure C.40: 802.1Q VLAN Port Configuration Set Port No., Link Type, Untagged VID, and Tagged VIDs then click ‘Apply’ button to apply. Figure C.41: Port Configuration VLAN Table This function displays the VLAN table information.
Figure C.42: VLAN Table Port-based VLAN Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled, the VLAN-tagging is ignored.
C.3.2 Rapid Spanning Tree The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is an evolution of the Spanning Tree Protocol and provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. The system also supports STP and the system will auto detect the connected device that is running STP or RSTP protocol. • User can view spanning tree information about the Root Bridge. • User can modify RSTP state. After modification, click ‘Apply’ button.
Figure C.44: RSTP Note Follow the rule to configure the MAX Age, Hello Time, and Forward Delay Time. 2 x (Forward Delay Time value –1) > = Max Age value >= 2 x (Hello Time value +1) RSTP - Port Configuration Here you can view the RSTP information.

Figure C.53: SNMPv3 MIBView Table C.3.4 QoS Configuration You can configure Qos policy and priority setting, per port priority setting, COS and TOS setting. QoS Policy and Priority Type • Qos Policy: select the Qos policy rule. ¾ Use an 8,4,2,1 weighted fair queuing scheme: The switch will follow 8:4:2:1 rate to process priority queue from High to Lowest queue.
Figure C.54: QoS Port Base Priority Configure per port priority level. • Port 1 ~ Port 10: each port has 4 priority levels – High, Middle, Low, and Lowest. • Click ‘Apply’. Figure C.55: Port Based Priority COS Settings Set up the COS priority level. • COS priority: Set up the COS priority level 0~7 –High, Middle, Low, Lowest. • Click ‘Apply’.
Figure C.56: COS Settings TOS Settings Set up the TOS priority. • TOS priority: the system provides 0~63 TOS priority level. Each level has 4 types of priority – high, middle, low, and lowest. The default value is “Lowest” priority for each level. When the IP packet is received, the system will check the TOS level value in the IP packet that has received. For example, user set the TOS level 25 is high. The port 1 is following the TOS priority policy only.
IGMP Configuration The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a communications protocol used to manage the membership of Internet Protocol multicast groups. IGMP is used by IP hosts and adjacent multicast routers to establish multicast group memberships. It is an integral part of the IP multicast specification, like ICMP for unicast connections. IGMP can be used for online video and gaming, and allows more efficient use of resources when supporting these uses.
Figure C.59: IGMP Snooping Table X-Ring X-Ring provides a faster redundant recovery than Spanning Tree topology. The action is similar to STP or RSTP, but the algorithms not the same. In the X-Ring topology, every switch should enable X-Ring function and assign two member ports in the ring. Only one switch in the X-Ring group would be set as a master switch, one of its path would be blocked, called backup port, and another port is called working port.
• And then, click ‘Apply’ to apply the configuration. Figure C.
C.4 Security In this section, you can configure 802.1x and MAC address table. C.4.1 802.1x/RADIUS 802.1x is an IEEE authentication specification that allows a client to connect to a wireless access point or wired switch but prevents the client from gaining access to the Internet until it provides authority, like a user name and password that are verified by a separate server. After enabling the IEEE 802.1X function, you can configure the parameters of this function. Radius Server Settings: • IEEE 802.
Figure C.61: 802.1x/RADIUS Port Auth You can configure 802.1x authentication state for each port. The State provides Disable, Accept, Reject and Authorize. • Reject: the specified port is required to be held in the unauthorized state. • Accept: the specified port is required to be held in the Authorized state. • Authorized: the specified port is set to the Authorized or Unauthorized state in accordance with the outcome of an authentication exchange between the Supplicant and the authentication server.
