ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Separating a physical network into many virtual networks What is Virtual LAN? • VLAN Overview A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one group called VLAN Group. A station can belong to more than one group. The stations on the same VLAN group can communicate with each other.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. You must define outgoing ports allowed for each port when using port-based VLANs. Note that VLAN only governs the outgoing traffic, in the other word, it is unidirectional. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, e.g.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Port-based VLAN definition: • • • • • • Egress port for port 1: port 2, port 4, port 5 Egress port for port 2: port 1, port 3 Egress port for port 3: port 2 Egress port for port 4: port 1, port 5 Egress port for port 5: port 1, port 4 Port-based VLAN across different switch Port-based VLAN is specific only to the switch on which it was created. Definitely, Port-based VLAN can't across different switches.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes For Switch-2, port 1, port 2, and port 3 are allowed to communicate back and forth with uplink port 4, but not with other ports. • Switch-2 VLAN 1 member port: port 1 and port 4 • Switch-2 VLAN 2 member port: port 2 and port 4 • Switch-2 VLAN 3 member port: port 3 and port 4 For Switch-3, port 2, port 3, and port 4 are allowed to communicate back and forth with uplink port 1, but not with other ports.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes For Switch-1, port 1, port2, and port 3 are allowed to communicate back and forth with uplink port 4, but not with other ports. • Switch-1 VLAN 1 member port: port 1 and port 4 • Switch-1 VLAN 2 member port: port 2 and port 4 • Switch-1 VLAN 3 member port: port 3 and port 4 How to configure Port-Based VLAN Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Scenario In this scenario, Port Based VLAN is used to separate one physical Switch into two smaller logical Switches. Port 1~4 and 9, 10 are in one group. And Port 5~10 are in another group. Port-based VLANs are specific only to the switch on which they were created. 35 All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Configuring your Switch to fulfill this scenario (GUI) 1. 2. 3. 4. Connect port 1 with a PC or Notebook via the RJ45 Cable. By default the MGMT IP on every port is 192.168.1.1/24 Set your NIC to 192.168.1.2/24 Open an Internet browser such as IE and give http://192.168.1.1 on the URL. 5. By default you will need to put “admin” as the username and “1234” as the password. 6. After you login successfully, you will see a similar screen like below. 7.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 8. Now, you need to tell the Switch how you are going to separate the physical Switch into some logical small Switches. Thus, we click “Advanced Application” then “VLAN”. On the right screen, check the boxes to suit your need. In this case, we need to make port 1~4 and port 9, 10 in a group in order for them to communicate in both ways. And port 5~10 in another group but these two groups cannot talk with each others.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 9. Finally, you can now verify your result. If everything works fine, PC A can ping PC B and PC Z. But it cannot ping PC C or PC D. On the same time, this should work vice versa. 10. For example, PC A: 192.168.1.4/24 PC B: 192.168.1.5/24 PC C: 192.168.1.6/24 PC D: 192.168.1.7/24 PC Z: 192.168.1.99/24 11.

ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Configuring your Switch to fulfill this scenario (CLI) 1. Connect the Switch Console port with your PC or Notebook. 2. Open your Terminal program.(Ex, Hyper Terminal in Windows System) 3. Make sure that your port settings are bps:9600 Data bits:8 Parity: None Stop bits:1 Flow control: None: 4. After you connected successfully, give the correct user name and password. 5. Put “en” or “enable” to go into the privileged mode.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes scenario. 7. When all of the above are done, do not forget to give the “write memory” command under the enable mode to save your configuration. What is IEEE 802.1Q Tag-based VLAN? • Tag-based VLAN Overview Regarding IEEE 802.1Q standard, Tag-based VLAN uses an extra tag in the MAC header to identify the VLAN membership of a frame across bridges. This tag is used for VLAN and QoS (Quality of Service) priority identification.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes process the frame across the network. A tagged frame is four bytes longer than an untagged frame and contains two bytes of TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier, residing within the type/length field of the Ethernet frame) and two bytes of TCI (Tag Control Information, starts after the source address field of the Ethernet frame). • TPID: TPID has a defined value of 8100 in hex. When a frame has the EtherType equal to 8100, this frame carries the tag IEEE 802.1Q / 802.1P.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes • How 802.1Q VLAN works According to the VID information in the tag, the switch forward and filter the frames among ports. These ports with same VID can communicate with each other. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN function contains the following three tasks, Ingress Process, Forwarding Process and Egress Process. 1. Ingress Process: Each port is capable of passing tagged or untagged frames.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes untagged frame is received, Ingress Process insert a tag contained the PVID into the untagged frame. Each physical port has a default VID called PVID (Port VID). PVID is assigned to untagged frames or priority tagged frames (frames with null (0) VID) received on this port. After Ingress Process, all frames have 4-bytes tag and VID information, and then go to Forwarding Process. 2.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 4. • Forbidden registration: This port is forbidden to be the egress port of specified VID.. • Fixed registration: While ad control is fixed registration, it means this is a static registration entry. This port is the egress port of the specified VID (a member port of the specified VLAN). The frames with specified VID tag can go through this port. • Normal registration: While ad control is normal registration, it means this is a dynamic registration entry.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Filtering Database. If the value is tagged, the outgoing frame on the egress port is tagged. If the value is untagged, the tag will be removed before frame leaves the egress port. How to connect two switches using VLAN? I want to make VLAN on two layer 2 switches, and I want to connect first switch to second switch with trunk port. There will be 5 VLAN on first Switch and there will be 7 VLAN on second switch. Trunk port will be port 25 on both switches as well.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes ------------------------------------2. Configuration of VLAN on switch B Answer: ------------------------------------In switch A, add port 25 in each VLAN VID:101 (port 1,2,3,"25 TAG") VID:102 (port 4,5,6,,"25 TAG") VID:103 (port 7,8,9,10,"25 TAG") VID:104 (port 23,24,"25 TAG") VID:105 (port 11,12,13,14,"25 TAG") VID:106 (port 15,16,17,"25 TAG") VID:107 (port 18,19.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes VID:102 (port 6,7,8,9,10,"25 TAG") VID:103 (port 11,12,13,14,"25 TAG") VID:104 (port 15,16,17,18,"25 TAG") VID:105 (port 19,20,21,23,22"25 TAG) Clients in same VLAN on both switches can communicate each other.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes IP Multicasting How to setup IGMP snooping in your switch? Figure 1: IGMP and IGMP snooping IGMP snooping is designed for application with deployment of multicast traffic. It operates on the underlying IGMP mechanism where a layer two switch passively listens to the IGMP Query, Report and Leave (IGMP version 2) packets transmitted between the IGMP router and clients and collects passing IGMP messages.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 50 All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Configuration of IGMP snooping by web In this example, we enable the IGMP function on the GS-4024 (an IGMP router) to connect to a multimedia server. Also, we enable IGMP snooping function on the ES-3124 or other ZyXEL L2 Switch to connect to the multimedia clients. Figure 2: IGMP snooping Example Step one: In the GS-4024, click the IP Application, select IGMP where, IGMP function can be enabled and we can select either IGMP-v1 or IGMP-v2.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Step two: In the L2 Switch, click Basic Setting and then Switch Setup where we can enable IGMP snooping function with WEB-GUI.

ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes To ring a network by building reducdent links and connections between Switch What is Spanning Tree Protocol • Spanning Tree Overview Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is a Layer 2 protocol designed to run on bridges and switches. The specification for STP is defined in IEEE 802.1d. The main purpose of STP is to ensure that you do not run into a loop situation when you have redundant paths in your network.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 2. Filtering Database Instability: When multiple copies of a frame arrive at different ports of a switch, the MAC entry instability in Filtering Database will occur. 1. 2. 3. Host sends an unicast frame to Router (source MAC address is Host's MAC, destination MAC address is Router's MAC). Both Switch A and Switch B will receive this frame and learn MAC address of Host on Port 2. Switch A has not yet learned the MAC address of Router.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes How STP Works Spanning Tree provide a loop-free network. When a switch supported STP recognize a loop in the network topology, it blocks one or more redundant ports. Spanning Tree Protocol continually explore the network, so when the network topology changes, STP automatically reconfigure switch ports to avoid the failure by blocking certain port. Spanning tree algorithm aware switches (bridges) exchange configuration messages periodically.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 2. The bridge ID includes two parts, bridge priority (2 bytes) and bridge MAC address (6 bytes). The 802.1d default bridge priority is 32768. For example, a switch with default priority 32768 (8000 hex), MAC address is 00:A0:C5:12:34:56, its bridge ID is 8000:00A0:C512:3456. 3. On the root bridge, all its ports are designated ports. Designated ports are always in the forwarding state. While in forwarding state, a port can receive and send traffic. 2.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes For each LAN segment (collision domain), there is a designated port. The designated port has the lowest cost to the root bridge. Designated ports are normally in the forwarding state to forward and receive traffic to the segment. If more than one port in the segment have the same path cost, the port on which bridge has lowest bridge ID is selected as a designated port. 1.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes 1. Switch A bridge ID = 8000:00A0:C511:1111, Switch B bridge ID = 8000:00A0:C522:2222, Switch C bridge ID = 2. 3. 0001:00A0:C533:3333. Switch C has the lowest bridge ID, so Switch C is the root bridge. All ports of the root bridge are designated ports, so Port 1 is designated port. For non-root bridge Switch A, Port 1 path cost to root bridge is 19, Port 2 path cost is 119, 100 (Switch A Port 2) + 19 (Switch B Port 1).
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes Switching security MAC freeze As an added protection against network intrusion attacks, ZyXEL has implemented the MAC Freeze feature on all ZyXEL Management Switches with firmware version 3.6 or above. Security has been the focus of our Ethernet switch design. With the MAC freeze feature enabled, dynamic MAC addresses on specified ports are stored in the static MAC address table.
ES-2000 Series Switch Support Notes You can display the Static MAC Address screen in the web configurator to view the copied MAC addresses. Figure 2: Displaying MAC Addresses From MAC Freeze After you enabled MAC freeze on port 6 using the CLI command, the switch automatically disables MAC address learning on that port. Display the Port Security screen to verify this. Figure 3: Disabled Automatic MAC Address Learning After MAC Freeze 61 All contents copyright (c) 2006 ZyXEL Communications Corporation.
