TABLE OF CONTENTS 1.0 INTRODUCTION .................................................................................................................................................... 7 1.1 MAIN FEATURES .................................................................................................................................................. 7 1.2 START TO MANAGE THIS SWITCH.......................................................................................................................... 8 2.
1.0 Introduction This web smart switch is a high speed switch that provides up to 8 10/100/1000Mbps copper Ethernet ports, besides, it provides many advanced function for nowadays variety of network application but at lower cost.
1.2 Start to Manage This Switch Either way user may start to manage this switch, web mode through Ethernet port or terminal mode through RS232 port. 1,2,1 Web mode default setting are: Default IP Address: 192.168.223.100 Default IP mask: 255.255.255.0 Default gateway: 192.168.223.254 Default Password: " admin " 1.2.
2.0 Web management After login is successfully validated, the switch’s home 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.
2.1 Configurations 2.1.1.1 System information The system diagram shows general 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 user finish the setting, he must press the " Apply " button to execute all his setting, and whenever he needs, he may press the " Refresh " button to get updated status of system information.
2.1.1.2 DHCP The default DHCP is off, so Default IP or user defined IP is used when this machine is turning-ON, but if this switch needs an IP assigned from DHCP server, user may click the square field and then press " Apply " to get an IP which will be assigned by DCHP server ". User must be aware that if he enable DHCP from web page, and if the DHCP server is working, then after enable DHCP, he will lose contact of web page, because the IP address has been changed.
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 global setting, it can’t be set on individual port but on all ports at a time.
2.1.3 Port-based VLAN Port-based VLAN is a kind of VLAN which is a group of ports marked as a kind by group ID, different VLAN (different ID) can’t communicate to each other. Before the setting, user must be aware of that there is a default Port-based VLAN, his group ID is 1, so, if user wants to set another new port-based VLAN, better set another group ID rather than 1. After press " Apply " button, the screen will show a updated VLAN Group table no matter user add a new group or delete a VALN group.
2.1.4 Tag-based VLAN Tag-based VLAN is another kind of VLAN which is a group of ports marked as same kind by assigning a tag-value on each port, same as port-based VLAN, different VLAN (different ID) can’t communicate to each other, and before the setting, there is a default tag-based VLAN, which ID is 1 (VLAN ID=1), so, if user wants to create another new tag-based VLAN, better set another VLAN ID rather than 1 (tag-based VALN ID ranged from 1 ~ 4094).
If VLAN 10 and VLAN ID 20 must be isolated, then user must delete member port 5,6,7,8 in default VLAN group(VID = 1).
1. VLAN Aware mode: Enable – When Tag-VALN function is applied on this port, user may enable VLAN Aware associated with this port, then ingress frames and egress frames will be handled according to the following parameters’ setting. Disable – default state, this means, switch doesn’t do VLAN tag stripping and insertion. 2. Ingress filtering: Enable - Check ingress frame VLAN ID.
2.1.
2.1.6 Port Mirroring A default diagram is shown below, Choose and click the ports you want to monitor, for example, choose port 2 is mirror port And the mirror source is port 5.
2.1.7 Quality of Service There are 4 class priority can be set for each port: Low, Normal, Medium and High, because there are 8 priority levels ( 0 ~ 7 ) for each port, so 8 priorities map into 4 class must be done in this QoS control. There are 3 QoS Mode can be chosen: Port-based, 802.1P and DSCP. The frames sending not only per priority setting but also per Queue Mode setting.
When user choose the 802.1P priority, this means frames are with VLAN Tag inside the switch, the priority in the Tagged frame (2 bytes Tag in total) must be set by application program. But 8 priority levels map into 4 class also must be done same as explained in previous paragraph.
2.1.8 Storm Control A default diagram is shown below, Choose and click type of storm you want to control, for example, choose Broadcast storm with 3,964 frames per second as upper limit, once the Broadcast frame rate higher than 3,964 frame per second, this port will be disabled.
2.1.9 LACP Different from the static port trunking, LACP provides another way to dynamically aggregate port to a group (trunk) according to IEEE 802.3ad. Once the protocol is enabled, the ports to be trunked by LACP will be executed automatically after press " apply " A default diagram is shown below, Two parameters need to be set per port basis in this webpage: Protocol Enabled – to enable/disable LACP protocol for a port. Key Value – a number (1~255) to identify the LACP group for a port.
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. RSTP can shorten spanning tree convergent time while network topology is changed.
Use the following parameters in the webpage to configure RSTP function: System Configuration System Priority – A value to identify the root bridge. The bridge with lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the root. 16 numbers are provided in this field from 0 to 61140 in increments of 4096. Hello Time -- the number of seconds among the transmission of Spanning-Tree Protocol configuration messages. Enter a number 1 through 10.
2.1.11 IGMP The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an internal protocol of the Internet Protocol (IP) suite. IGMP can manage the multicast traffic if the members (switches, router or other network devices) of group support IGMP. This switch provides IGMP snooping feature to detect IGMP queries, report packets and manage the IP multicast traffic through the switch. This feature can limit the forwarding multicast frames only to those ports that are a member of multicast group.
2.1.12 802.1x A default diagram is shown below, user must contact the manager of RADIUS server, and then get IP, UDP port number (usually fixed at 1812) and secret to operate 802.1X.
2.2 Monitoring 2.2.1.
2.2.2 LACP Status Choose and click command manual, after execution, diagram will shown like below, user can refresh at will.
2.2.3 RSTP Status Choose and click command manual, after execution, diagram will shown like below, user can refresh at will. 2.2.4 IGMP Status Choose and click IGMP status at command, after execution, diagram will be shown like below, user can refresh as will. There are IGMP v1, v2,v3 frames will be shown in the network, our switch only support IGMP V2, but it will handle some IGMP V3 frames.
2.2.5 Ping Fill up the IP address you want to ping, set Time Out time and Counts, for example, IP = 192.168.223.
2.3 Maintenance 2.3.1 Warm Reboot Choose and click command manual, diagram will shown like below, user can press Yes or No Warm Reboot Are you sure you want to perform a warm reboot? Yes No 2.3.2 Factory Default Choose and click command manual, diagram will shown like below, user can press Yes or No Factory Default Are you sure to reset configurations to factory default? Yes No 2.3.
2.3.4 Config File Choose and click command manual, diagram will be shown, and then direct the location of the file that is to be backup, give a name, then press " Backup " Configuration File Backup/Restore Configuration File Backup Backup Choose and click command manual, diagram will be shown, and then direct the location of the file that to be restored, then press " Restore " It will show transfer completed if it success. Configuration File Restore Restore 3.
Key in " Command " and then key in " ? ", second level will be shown , for example 33
If user wants to check the IP related information, he may do as below All other function can be operate likewise. Type " up " or " / " go back to previous page Contents subject to change without notice.
