User Manual 2. Installation 2-1. Starting Web-Smart Switch Up This section will give users a quick start for: - Hardware and Cable Installation - Management Station Installation - Software booting and configuration 2-1-1. Hardware and Cable Installation At the beginning, please do first: ⇒ Wear a grounding device to avoid the damage from electrostatic discharge • Installing Optional SFP/GBIC Fiber Transceivers to the Web-Smart Switch Note: If you have no modules, please skip this section. Fig.
User Manual • TP Port and Cable Installation ⇒ In the switch, TP port supports MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover, so both types of cable, straight-through (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 1, 2, 3, 6 in 10/100M TP; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 in Gigabit TP) and crossed-over (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 3, 6, 1, 2) can be used. It means you do not have to tell from them, just plug it. ⇒ Use Cat.
User Manual 2-1-2. Installing Chassis to a 19-Inch Wiring Closet Rail Fig. 2-2 Caution: Allow a proper spacing and proper air ventilation for the cooling fan at both sides of the chassis. ⇒ Wear a grounding device for electrostatic discharge. ⇒ Screw the mounting accessory to the front side of the switch (See Fig. 2-2). ⇒ Place the Chassis into the 19-inch wiring closet rail and locate it at the proper position. Then, fix the Chassis by screwing it. 2-1-3.
User Manual 2-1-3-1. Cabling Requirements for TP Ports ⇒ For Fast Ethernet TP network connection ⎯ The grade of the cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100 meters. ⇒ Gigabit Ethernet TP network connection ⎯ The grade of the cable must be Cat. 5 or Cat. 5e with a maximum length of 100 meters. Cat. 5e is recommended. 2-1-3-2. Cabling Requirements for 1000SX/LX SFP Module It is more complex and comprehensive contrast to TP cabling in the fiber media.
User Manual 2-1-3-3. Switch Cascading in Topology • Takes the Delay Time into Account Theoretically, the switch partitions the collision domain for each port in switch cascading that you may up-link the switches unlimitedly. In practice, the network extension (cascading levels & overall diameter) must follow the constraint of the IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3z and other 802.1 series protocol specifications, in which the limitations are the timing requirement from physical signals defined by 802.
User Manual Case1: All switch ports are in the same local area network. Every port can access each other (See Fig. 2-3). Fig. 2-3 No VLAN Configuration Diagram If VLAN is enabled and configured, each node in the network that can communicate each other directly is bounded in the same VLAN area. Here VLAN area is defined by what VLAN you are using. The switch supports both port-based VLAN and tag-based VLAN. They are different in practical deployment, especially in physical location.
User Manual Case 2b: Port-based VLAN (See Fig.2-5). Fig. 2-5 Port-based VLAN Diagram 1. VLAN1 members could not access VLAN2, VLAN3 and VLAN4 members. 2. VLAN2 members could not access VLAN1 and VLAN3 members, but they could access VLAN4 members. 3. VLAN3 members could not access VLAN1, VLAN2 and VLAN4. 4. VLAN4 members could not access VLAN1 and VLAN3 members, but they could access VLAN2 members. Case3a: The same VLAN members can be at different switches with the same VID (See Fig. 2-6). Fig.
User Manual 2-1-4. Configuring the Management Agent of Web-Smart Switch In the way of web, user is allowed to startup the switch management function. Users can use any one of them to monitor and configure the switch. You can touch them through the following procedures.
User Manual 2-1-4-1. Configuring Management Agent of Web-Smart Switch through Ethernet Port There are two ways to configure and monitor the switch through the switch’s Ethernet port. They are Web browser and SNMP manager. The user interface for the last one is NMS dependent and does not cover here. We just introduce the first type of management interface. Web-based UI for the switch is an interface in a highly friendly way. 24 Fast Ethernet + 2 Gigabit Web-Smart Switch Default IP Setting: IP = 192.168.1.
User Manual Fig. 2-8 the Login Screen for Web 2-1-5. IP Address Assignment For IP address configuration, there are three parameters needed to be filled in. They are IP address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS. IP address: The address of the network device in the network is used for internetworking communication. Its address structure looks is shown in the Fig. 2-9. It is “classful” because it is split into predefined address classes or categories.
User Manual With the classful addressing, it divides IP address into three classes, class A, class B and class C. The rest of IP addresses are for multicast and broadcast. The bit length of the network prefix is the same as that of the subnet mask and is denoted as IP address/X, for example, 192.168.1.0/24. Each class has its address range described below. Class A: Address is less than 126.255.255.255. There are a total of 126 networks can be defined because the address 0.0.0.
User Manual Class D and E: Class D is a class with first 4 MSB (Most significance bit) set to 1-1-1-0 and is used for IP Multicast. See also RFC 1112. Class E is a class with first 4 MSB set to 1-1-1-1 and is used for IP broadcast. According to IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), there are three specific IP address blocks reserved and able to be used for extending internal network. We call it Private IP address and list below: Class A Class B Class C 10.0.0.0 --- 10.255.255.255 172.16.0.0 --- 172.
User Manual In this diagram, you can see the subnet mask with 25-bit long, 255.255.255.128, contains 126 members in the sub-netted network. Another is that the length of network prefix equals the number of the bit with 1s in that subnet mask. With this, you can easily count the number of IP addresses matched. The following table shows the result. Prefix Length No. of IP matched No.
User Manual For different network applications, the subnet mask may look like 255.255.255.240. This means it is a small network accommodating a maximum of 15 nodes in the network. Default gateway: For the routed packet, if the destination is not in the routing table, all the traffic is put into the device with the designated IP address, known as default router. Basically, it is a routing policy. The gateway setting is used for Trap Events Host only in the switch.
User Manual 2-2. Typical Applications Web-Smart Switch implements 24 Fast Ethernet TP ports with auto MDIX + 2 Gigabit dual media ports with SFP/GBIC for removable module supported comprehensive fiber types of connection, including LC, BiDi LC for SFP and LC/SC, BiDi LC/SC for GBIC.

User Manual 3-3. Port Function name: TP/Fiber Ports Status Function description: TP/Fiber Ports Status function is applied to display the latest updated status of all ports in this switch. Or click the Port ID directly to configure it (See Fig.3-7). In this function, you can view the following setting including, link status, speed duplex and flow control. All of them are described in detail below. Fig. 3-6 Parameter description: Port: Display the port number. The number is 1 – 26.
User Manual Speed Duplex: Display the speed and duplex of all port. There are three speeds 10Mbps, 100Mbps and 1000Mbps supported for TP media, and the duplex supported is half duplex and full duplex. If the media is 1Gbps fiber, it is 1000Mbps supported only. The status of speed/duplex mode is determined by 1) the negotiation of both local port and link partner in “Enable” mode or 2) user setting in “Disable” mode. The local port has to be preset its capability.
User Manual Default is Enable. Auto Negotiate: Only “Enable” and “Disable” two states can be chosen. “Enable” means the port adopted the auto-negotiation algorithm to exchange the capability with the linked partner and adjusted its speed, duplex and flow control. When enabled, the speed, duplex mode and flow control mode may change. “Disable” means the forced mode is adopted.
User Manual Default Priority: Default Priority is used for untagged packets hold QoS priority. It provide 8 priorities (0~7) in each port. When untagged packets enter one port of the switch, they will have the precedence you set default priority in that port. For instance, as you choose port 2 with default priority 2 and the untagged frames get into the port 2 of the switch, they will possess priority 2 QoS precedence. Then priority 2 packets must check the setting of QoS function.
User Manual 3-4. IP Configuration IP configuration is one of the most important configurations in the switch. Without the proper setting, network manager will not be able to manage or view the device. The switch supports manual IP address setting. When IP address is changed, you must reboot the switch to have the setting taken effect and use the new IP to browse for web management.
User Manual Subnet mask is used to set the subnet mask value, which should be the same value as that of the other devices resided in the same network it attaches. For more information, please also see the Section 2-1-5 “IP Address Assignment” in this manual. Default: 255.255.255.0 Gateway: Set an IP address for a gateway to handle those packets that do not meet the routing rules predefined in the device.
User Manual 3-5. VLAN The switch supports Port-based VLAN and Tag-based VLAN (802.1q). Support 26 active VLANs and VLAN ID 1~4094. VLAN configuration is used to partition your LAN into small ones as your demand. Properly configuring it, you can gain not only improving security and increasing performance but greatly reducing VLAN management. Fig.
User Manual are on the port 5, then you cannot talk to them. Each port-based VLAN you built up must be assigned a group name. This switch can support up to maximal 26 port-based VLAN groups. Tag-based: Tag-based VLAN identifies its member by VID. This is quite different from port-based VLAN. If there are any more rules in ingress filtering list or egress filtering list, the packet will be screened with more filtering criteria to determine if it can be forwarded. The switch supports supplement of 802.1q.
User Manual Function name: Port-based VLAN Function description: It shows the existed information of VLAN Groups List and maintains them, i.e. modify and delete one of them. If you are in port-based VLAN, it will just show the ID, Description and Member of the existed port-based VLAN group. You can easily create and delete a VLAN group by pressing and function buttons, or click the Group ID directly to edit it.

User also can choose ingress filtering rules to each port. There are two ingress filtering rules which can be applied to the switch. Fig. 3-16 Parameter description: Port 1-26: Port number. PVID: This PVID range will be 1-4094. Before you set a number x as PVID, you have to create a Tag-based VLAN with VID x.
User Manual switch will check if port 1 is a member of VLAN100. If yes, the received packet is forwarded; otherwise, the received packet is dropped. Drop Untag Frame: Drop untagged frame. You can configure a given port to accept all frames (Tagged and Untagged) or just receive tagged frame. If the former is the case, then the packets with tagged or untagged will be processed. If the later is the case, only the packets carrying VLAN tag will be processed, the rest packets will be discarded.
User Manual 3-6. Trunking Trunking configuration is used to configure the settings of Link Aggregation. You can bundle more than one port with the same speed, full duplex and the same MAC to be a single logical port, thus the logical port aggregates the bandwidth of these ports. This means you can apply your current Ethernet equipments to build the bandwidth aggregation.
User Manual Parameter description: Trunk 1~2: Valid range is Port 1~24. In Trunk 1 or Trunk 2, user can group these ports together. And up to 4 ports can be selected for each trunk group. Trunk 3: Valid range is Port 25~26. In Trunk 3, only these two Gigabit ports are allowed to become a member of this trunk group. Not trunking: Set up the ports that do not join any aggregation trunking group.
User Manual 3-7. Mirror Function name: Mirror Configuration Function description: Mirror Configuration is to monitor the traffic of the network. For example, we assume that Port A and Port B are “Mirror To” Port and “Mirror” Port respectively, thus, the traffic passed by Port B will be copied to Port A for monitoring. Note: When configuring the mirror function, you should avoid setting a port to be a sniffer port and aggregated port at the same time. It will cause something wrong.
