Chapter 1 Introduction Chapter 1: Introduction The 5-port and 8-port 10/100/1000 Gigabit Smart Switches with PD and AC Power allow you to upgrade your existing 10/100 network by replacing your current workgroup hub or switch. At the same time, you can configure advanced features for security, QoS, and Spanning Tree using its web-based utility. The Linksys Gigabit Smart Switches not only allow you to upgrade to Gigabit speeds, but also allow you to expand your network securely.
Product Overview Chapter 2 Chapter 2: Product Overview Side Panels The Reset button and Power port are located on the right side panel of the Switch. Front Panel The LEDs are located on the front panel of the Switch. Right Side Panel Front Panel - SLM2008 System (Green) Lights up green to indicate that power is being supplied to the Switch. 1-5 or 1-8 (Green) Each LED will light up when there is a connection made through its corresponding port.
Installation Chapter 3 Pre-Installation Considerations Chapter 3: Installation Full-Duplex Considerations Overview This chapter will explain how to connect network devices to the Switch. The following diagram shows a typical network configuration. Internet Cable/DSL Modem Router Wireless Access Point The Switch provides full-duplex support for its RJ-45 ports. Full-duplex operation allows data to be sent and received simultaneously, doubling a port’s potential data throughput.
Installation Chapter 3 Placement Options Desktop Placement There are two ways to physically install the Switch, either hang the Switch on a wall using its wall-mount slots or place it on a desktop. • Place the Switch on a desktop near an AC power source. • Keep enough ventilation space for the switch and check the environmental restrictions mentioned in “Appendix B: Specifications” as you are placing the Switch.
Chapter 4 Advanced Configuration Chapter 4: Advanced Configuration System Name This field allows you to enter/modify the name of the Switch. Open your web browser and enter http://192.168.1.254 into the address field. Press the Enter key and the Password screen will appear. MAC Address The MAC address of the Switch is displayed here. Address Bar NOTE: The default IP address is 192.168.1.254. If the IP address has been changed, enter the assigned IP address instead of the default.
Chapter 4 Be sure to click Save Settings and reboot the Switch by going to Admin > Reboot. Port > Port Settings You can manually configure the speed, duplex, and flow control settings used on specific ports, or use autonegotiation to allow the Switch to autodetect the connection settings used by the attached device. Full‑duplex mode should be used on ports whenever possible to double the throughput of Switch connections.
Chapter 4 Advanced Configuration VLAN > VLAN Settings Port > LACP Settings Port Displays the port number. Enable LACP Enables LACP. Admin Key A channel will only be formed between ports having the same admin key. This only applies to ports located on the same switch. The default setting is auto. A VLAN is a group of ports that can be located anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they belong to the same physical segment.
Advanced Configuration Chapter 4 Enable Tx Force Untag When this option is enabled, all egress frames from this port become untagged. The default value is Disable. When this function is disabled, only frames with the VLAN ID equal to the PVID will become untagged, otherwise, frames are sent with a VLAN tag. Enable Ingress Filter Determines how to process frames tagged for VLANs for which the ingress port is not a member. The default value is enabled. Ingress filtering only affects tagged frames.
Chapter 4 RADIUS UDP Port Enter the UDP Port of the server. The UDP port is used to verify the RADIUS server authentication. The default value is 1812. Key String Enter the secret key string as defined on the RADIUS server. The secret key string is used for authenticating and encrypting communications between the device and the RADIUS server. Admin State Sets the authentication mode to one of the following options: • Auto Requires a dot1x-aware client to be authorized by the authentication server.
Advanced Configuration Chapter 4 Management IP address 1 Enter the IP address of a device that you wish to allow manage the Switch. • Packet content • A combination of these attributes Management IP address 2 Enter the IP address of a second device that you wish to allow manage the Switch.
Advanced Configuration Chapter 4 QoS Mode Port-Based Settings Set the QoS Mode to QoS Disabled, 802.1p, Port Based, or DSCP. This allows customization of priority levels for specific ports. By default, all ports are set to high priority. DSCP Found? Packet Yes DSCP Enabled? DSCP Yes DSCP QoS The Switch supports a common method of prioritizing IP traffic to meet application requirements.
Advanced Configuration Chapter 4 System Priority Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated port. The device with the highest priority becomes the STA root device. However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the root device. The default value is 32768. The range is 0 to 61440 in steps of 4096. Hello Time Interval (in seconds) at which the root device transmits a configuration message. The default is 2 seconds.
Advanced Configuration Chapter 4 Rx Frames Displays the number of frames received on the port since the device was last refreshed. • Tx Errors Displays the number of transmitted packets with errors that have occurred on the port since the device was last refreshed. Ports requesting to join a specific Multicast group issue an IGMP report, specifying that Multicast group is accepting members. This results in the creation of the Multicast filtering database.
Chapter 4 Ping Parameters Target IP Address Enter the IP Address of the device you want to ping. Count Set the maximum count to the target IP Address for each attempt. Time Out Set the time out (in seconds) interval if the device does not respond. Advanced Configuration Click the Restore to Default button, then it will restore the factory default settings to the switch. Admin > Reboot Restarts the Switch retaining the current configuration settings. Click Save Settings to save any changes.
