1.1.1 Bridging Example

In this example the Switch connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

16

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

Figure 1 Bridging Application

1.1.2 Gigabit Ethernet to the Desktop

The Switch is an ideal solution for small networks which demand high bandwidth for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers and servers directly to the Switch’s port or connect other switches to the Switch.

In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server and access the Internet.

To expand the network, simply add more networking devices such as switches, routers, computers, print servers and so on.

Figure 2 Gigabit to the Desktop

1.1.3 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Example

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 or more groups. With VLAN, a station cannot directly talk to or hear from stations that are not in the same group(s) unless such traffic first goes through a router.

For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 9 on page 68

.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

17

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1.3.1 Tag-based VLAN Example

Ports in the same VLAN group share the same frame broadcast domain, thus increasing network performance by reducing broadcast traffic. VLAN groups can be modified at any time by adding, moving or changing ports without any re-cabling.

Shared resources such as a server can be used by all ports in the same VLAN as the server. In the following figure only ports that need access to the server need to be part of VLAN 1. Ports can belong to other VLAN groups too.

Figure 3 Shared Server Using VLAN Example

1.1.4 IPv6 Support

IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to enhance IP address size and features. The increase in

IPv6 address size to 128 bits (from the 32-bit IPv4 address) allows up to 3.4 x 10 38 IP addresses. At the time of writing, the Switch supports the following features.

• Static address assignment and stateless auto-configuration

• Neighbor Discovery Protocol (a protocol used to discover other IPv6 devices in a network)

• Remote Management using PING, SNMP, HTTP and TFTP services

• ICMPv6 to report errors encountered in packet processing and perform diagnostic functions, such as

"PING”

• IPv4/IPv6 dual stack; the Switch can run IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time

• DHCPv6 client

1.2 Ways to Manage the Switch

Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.

• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported)

web browser. See Chapter 5 on page 36 .

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

18

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

• TFTP. Use Trivial File Transfer Protocol for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See

Section 33.1 on page 222 ,

Section 33.3 on page 225 , and

Section 33.4 on page 226

• SNMP. The device can be configured by a SNMP manager. See

Section 32.3 on page 209

.

1.3 Good Habits for Managing the Switch

Do the following things regularly to make the Switch more secure and to manage the Switch more effectively.

• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.

• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.

• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the Switch to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Switch. You could simply restore your last configuration.

Hardware Installation and

Connection

This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.

2.1 Freestanding Installation

1

Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.

2

Set the Switch on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the Switch and the connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.

3

Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord.

4

Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.

5

Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the Switch. These rubber feet help protect the

Switch from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when stacking.

Figure 4 Attaching Rubber Feet

Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes. Leave space between devices when stacking.

Note: For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) at the back of the Switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installations.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

20

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection

2.2 Hardware Installation

See Table 1 on page 16 for a comparison of the hardware installation methods of each model:

Note: Ask an authorized technician to attach the Switch to the rack/wall.

Refer to Section 2.2.2 on page 22 for rack-mounting instructions. Take note of the following:

• The Switch should have a minimum 25 mm space around it for ventilation.

• The Switch should be placed on a desk that has a level surface and that is able to support the weight of the Switch.

To start using it, simply connect the power cables and turn on the Switch.

2.2.1 Wall Mounting

Do the following to attach your Switch to a wall.

See the following table for how far apart to place the screws.

Table 2 Distance between the centers of the holes for wall mounting

GS1900-8 GS1900-8HP GS1900-10HP GS1900-16

176 mm 176 mm 176 mm 148 mm

GS1900-24E

207 mm

Screw the two screws provided with your Switch into the wall (see the figure in step 2). Use screws with 6 mm ~ 8 mm (0.24" ~ 0.31") wide heads. Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the screw and the wall.

The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection cables to run down the back of the Switch.

Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the weight of the Switch with the connection cables.

Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the screws.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

21

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection

The Switch should be wall-mounted horizontally. The Switch's side panels with ventilation slots should not be facing up or down as this position is less safe.

2.2.2 Rack Mounting

The Switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your Switch on a standard EIA rack using a rack-mounting kit.

Rack-mounted Installation Requirements

• Two mounting brackets.

• Eight M3 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.

• Four M5 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.

Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.

Precautions

• Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains.

• Make sure the position of the Switch does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.

Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch

1

Position a mounting bracket on one side of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the Switch.

Chapter 3 Hardware Overview

3.1.1 Ethernet Ports

The Switch has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit

Ethernet, the speed can be 10Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The duplex mode can be both half or full duplex at 100 Mbps and full duplex only at 1000 Mbps.

An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device.

An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover

Ethernet cable.

3.1.1.1 Default Ethernet Settings

The factory default negotiation settings for the Ethernet ports on the Switch are:

• Speed: Auto

• Duplex: Auto

• Flow control: Off

3.1.2 SFP Slots

These are slots for Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) transceivers. A transceiver is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. Use a transceiver to connect a fiber-optic cable to the Switch. The

Switch does not come with transceivers. You must use transceivers that comply with the Small Form-

Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF committee’s INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.

You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic connectors.

• Type: SFP connection interface

• Connection speed: 1 Gigabit per second (Gbps)

To avoid possible eye injury, do not look into an operating fiber-optic module’s connectors.

3.1.2.1 Transceiver Installation

Use the following steps to install a transceiver.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

27

Chapter 3 Hardware Overview

1

3.2.1 Power Connection

Make sure you are using the correct power source and that no objects obstruct the airflow of the fans.

The Switch uses two power supply modules, one of which is redundant, so if one power module fails the system can operate on the remaining module.

Rear Panel Power Connection

Connect one end of the supplied power cord or power adaptor to the power receptacle on the back of the Switch and the other end to the appropriate power source.

For Switches with a power switch (see Table 1 on page 16 ), use the POWER ON/OFF switch to have the

Switch power on or off.

3.4 Reset to Factory Defaults

If you forget your password or cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need to use the RESET button at the front of the device to reload the factory-default configuration file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the default Switch IP address, user name and password will be reset to 192.168.1.1, admin and 1234 respectively.

If you backed up an earlier configuration file as advised in Section 1.3 on page 19

, you will not have to totally re-configure the Switch after resetting. You can simply restore your last configuration.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

32

Follow the steps below to reset the Switch back to factory defaults.

1

Make sure the SYS LED is steady green (not blinking). Use a pointed instrument such as a pin to access

the RESET button on the front of the Switch as shown in Section 3.1 on page 25 .

2

Press the button for six seconds until the SYS LED begins to blink and then release it. Wait for the Switch to restart (the SYS LED will be steady green again). This takes up to two minutes.

Note: If you want to access the Switch web configurator again, you may need to change the

IP address of your computer to be in the same subnet as that of the default Switch IP address (192.168.1.1).

Monitor: VLAN

9.1 Overview

This section provides information for VLAN in Monitor.

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Devices on a logical network belong to one group. A device can belong to more than one group. With VLAN, a device cannot directly talk to or hear from devices that are not in the same group(s); the traffic must first go through a router.

In MTU (Multi-Tenant Unit) applications, VLAN is vital in providing isolation and security among the subscribers. When properly configured, VLAN prevents one subscriber from accessing the network resources of another on the same LAN, thus a user will not see the printers and hard disks of another user on the same network.

VLAN also increases network performance by limiting broadcasts to a smaller and more manageable logical broadcast domain. In traditional switched environments, all broadcast packets go to each and every individual port. With VLAN, all broadcasts are confined to a specific broadcast domain.

9.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter

• The VLAN screen (

Section 9.2 on page 68 ) displays VLAN, port, and VLAN port settings.

• The Guest VLAN screen ( Section 9.3 on page 71 ) displays the global and port settings of the Switch.

If set, the Switch discards incoming frames for VLANs that do not have this port as a member.

Enable VLAN Trunking on ports connected to other switches or routers (but not ports directly connected to end users) to allow frames belonging to unknown VLAN groups to pass through the Switch.

9.2.3 VLAN Port

Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. Port-based VLANs require allowed outgoing ports to be defined for each port. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, for example, between conference rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (an egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port through which a data packet leaves) for both ports. Port-based VLANs are specific only to the Switch on which they were created.

9.3 Guest VLAN

When 802.1x port authentication is enabled on the Switch and its ports, clients that do not have the correct credentials are blocked from using the port(s). You can configure your Switch to have one VLAN that acts as a guest VLAN. If you enable the guest VLAN (102 in the example) on a port (2 in the example), the user (A in the example) that is not IEEE 802.1x capable or fails to enter the correct username and password can still access the port, but traffic from the user is forwarded to the guest

VLAN. That is, unauthenticated users can have access to limited network resources in the same guest

VLAN, such as the Internet. The rights granted to the Guest VLAN depends on how the network administrator configures switches or routers with the guest network feature.

Monitor: MAC Table

10.1 Overview

This section provides information for MAC Table in Monitor.

The MAC Table screen (a MAC table is also known as a filtering database) shows how frames are forwarded or filtered across the Switch’s ports. When a device (which may belong to a VLAN group) sends a packet which is forwarded to a port on the Switch, the MAC address of the device is shown on the Switch’s MAC Table. It also shows whether the MAC address is dynamic (learned by the Switch) or static (manually entered in the Static MAC Forwarding screen).

The Switch uses the MAC Table to determine how to forward frames. See the following figure.

1

The Switch examines a received frame and learns the port from which this source MAC address came.

2

The Switch checks to see if the frame's destination MAC address matches a source MAC address already learned in the MAC Table.

• If the Switch has already learned the port for this MAC address, then it forwards the frame to that port.

• If the Switch has not already learned the port for this MAC address, then the frame is flooded to all ports. Too much port flooding leads to network congestion.

• If the Switch has already learned the port for this MAC address, but the destination port is the same as the port it came in on, then it filters the frame.

Monitor: Link Aggregation

11.1 Overview

This section provides information for Link Aggregation in Monitor.

Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port link. However, the more ports you aggregate then the fewer available ports you have. A trunk group is one logical link containing multiple ports.

The Switch supports both static and dynamic link aggregation.

Note: In a properly planned network, it is recommended to implement static link aggregation only. This ensures increased network stability and control over the trunk groups on your

Switch.

Monitor: Loop Guard

12.1 Overview

This section provides information for Loop Guard in Monitor.

Loop guard is designed to handle loop problems on the edge of your network. This can occur when a port is connected to a Switch that is in a loop state. Loop state occurs as a result of human error. It happens when two ports on a switch are connected with the same cable. When a switch in loop state sends out broadcast messages the messages loop back to the switch and are re-broadcast again and again causing a broadcast storm.

If a switch (not in loop state) connects to a switch in loop state, then it will be affected by the switch in loop state in the following way:

• It will receive broadcast messages sent out from the switch in loop state.

• It will receive its own broadcast messages that it sends out as they loop back. It will then re-broadcast those messages again.

The following figure shows port N on switch A connected to switch B. Switch B is in loop state. When broadcast or multicast packets leave port N and reach switch B, they are sent back to port N on A as they are rebroadcast from B.

Figure 70 Switch in Loop State

The loop guard feature checks to see if a loop guard enabled port is connected to a switch in loop state. This is accomplished by periodically sending a probe packet and seeing if the packet returns on the same port. If this is the case, the Switch will shut down the port connected to the switch in loop state.

The following figure shows a loop guard enabled port N on switch A sending a probe packet P to switch

B. Since switch B is in loop state, the probe packet P returns to port N on A. The Switch then shuts down port N to ensure that the rest of the network is not affected by the switch in loop state.

GS1900 Series User’s Guide

79

Chapter 12 Monitor: Loop Guard

Figure 71 Loop Guard - Probe Packet

The Switch also shuts down port N if the probe packet returns to switch A on any other port. In other words loop guard also protects against standard network loops. The following figure illustrates three switches forming a loop. A sample path of the loop guard probe packet is also shown. In this example, the probe packet is sent from port N and returns on another port. As long as loop guard is enabled on port N. The Switch will shut down port N if it detects that the probe packet has returned to the Switch.

This section provides information for Multicast in Monitor.

Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender to 1 recipient) or

Broadcast (1 sender to everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to just a group of hosts on the network.

IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in an IPv4 multicast group - it is not used to carry user data. Refer to RFC 1112, RFC 2236 and RFC 3376 for information on IGMP versions 1, 2 and 3 respectively.

14.2.5 STP Statistics

(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a Switch to interact with other (R)STP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one path exists between any two stations on the network.

The Switch uses IEEE 802.1w RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) that allows faster convergence of the spanning tree than STP (while also being backwards compatible with STP-only aware bridges). In RSTP, topology change information is directly propagated throughout the network from the device that generates the topology change. In STP, a longer delay is required as the device that causes a topology change first notifies the root bridge and then the root bridge notifies the network. Both RSTP and STP flush unwanted learned addresses from the filtering database. In RSTP, the port states are Discarding,

Learning, and Forwarding.

Note: In this user’s guide, “STP” refers to both STP and RSTP.

(mA) that the PD requires to function. The ranges are as follows.

Class 0 - Default, 0.44 to 12.94

Class 1 - Optional, 0.44 to 3.84

Class 2 - Optional, 3.84 to 6.49

Class 3 - Optional, 6.49 to 12.95

Class 4 - Reserved (PSEs classify as Class 0) in a switch that supports IEEE 802.3af only.

Optional, 12.95 to 25.50 in a switch that supports IEEE 802.3at.

When the total power requested by the PDs exceeds the total PoE power budget on the Switch, you can set the PD priority to allow the Switch to provide power to ports with higher priority first.

Critical has the highest priority.

High has the Switch assign power to the port after all critical priority ports are served.

Medium has the Switch assign power to the port after all critical and high priority ports are served.

Low has the Switch assign power to the port after all critical, high and medium priority ports are served.

This shows how the Switch provides power to the connected PD at power-up.

802.3af - the Switch follows the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet standard to supply power to the connected PDs during power-up.

Legacy - the Switch can provide power to the connected PDs that require high inrush currents at power-up.

Pre-802.3at - the Switch initially offers power on the port according to the IEEE 802.3af standard, and then switches to support the IEEE 802.3at standard within 75 milliseconds after a PD is connected to the port. Select this option if the Switch is performing 2-event Layer-1 classification

(PoE+ hardware classification) or the connected PD is NOT performing Layer 2 power classification using Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP).

802.3at - the Switch supports the IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet standard and can supply power of up to 30W per Ethernet port. IEEE 802.3at is also known as PoE+ or PoE Plus. An

IEEE 802.3at compatible device is referred to as Type 2. Power Class 4 (High Power) can only be used by Type 2 devices. If the connected PD requires a Class 4 current when it is turned on, it will be powered up in this mode.

This field is available on GS1900-8HP (Revision B1) and GS1900-10HP only.

This shows whether the Switch enables a wider detection range for the PD or not.

The Switch detects whether a connected device is a powered device or not before supplying power to the port. For the PD detection, the Switch applies a fixed voltage to the device and then receives returned current. If the returned current is within the IEEE 802.3AF/AT standard range, the device will be considered as a valid PD by the Switch.

However, in real cases, environmental interferences might easily cause the returned current out of the standard range. This field displays Enable if the Switch applies a wider range for PD detection. Otherwise, it displays Disable.

Configuration: VLAN

20.1 Overview

This section provides information for VLAN in Configuration.

A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Devices on a logical network belong to one group. A device can belong to more than one group. With VLAN, a device cannot directly talk to or hear from devices that are not in the same group(s); the traffic must first go through a router.

In MTU (Multi-Tenant Unit) applications, VLAN is vital in providing isolation and security among the subscribers. When properly configured, VLAN prevents one subscriber from accessing the network resources of another on the same LAN, thus a user will not see the printers and hard disks of another user on the same network.

VLAN also increases network performance by limiting broadcasts to a smaller and more manageable logical broadcast domain. In traditional switched environments, all broadcast packets go to each and every individual port. With VLAN, all broadcasts are confined to a specific broadcast domain.

20.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter

• The VLAN screen (

Section 20.2 on page 121 ) displays VLAN, port, and VLAN port settings.

• The Guest VLAN screen ( Section 20.3 on page 126 ) displays the global and port settings of the Switch.

• The Voice VLAN screen (

20.2.5 The VLAN Port Screen

Port-based VLANs are VLANs where the packet forwarding decision is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. Port-based VLANs require allowed outgoing ports to be defined for each port. Therefore, if you wish to allow two subscriber ports to talk to each other, for example, between conference rooms in a hotel, you must define the egress (an egress port is an outgoing port, that is, a port through which a data packet leaves) for both ports. Port-based VLANs are specific only to the Switch on which they were created.

20.3 Guest VLAN

When 802.1x port authentication is enabled on the Switch and its ports, clients that do not have the correct credentials are blocked from using the port(s). You can configure your Switch to have one VLAN that acts as a guest VLAN. If you enable the guest VLAN (102 in the example) on a port (2 in the example), the user (A in the example) that is not IEEE 802.1x capable or fails to enter the correct username and password can still access the port, but traffic from the user is forwarded to the guest

VLAN. That is, unauthenticated users can have access to limited network resources in the same guest

VLAN, such as the Internet. The rights granted to the Guest VLAN depends on how the network administrator configures switches or routers with the guest network feature.

This section provides information for MAC Table in Configuration.

The MAC Table screen (a MAC table is also known as a filtering database) shows how frames are forwarded or filtered across the Switch’s ports. When a device (which may belong to a VLAN group) sends a packet which is forwarded to a port on the Switch, the MAC address of the device is shown on the Switch’s MAC Table. It also shows whether the MAC address is dynamic (learned by the Switch) or static (manually entered in the Static MAC Forwarding screen).

Aggregation

22.1 Overview

This section provides information for Link Aggregation in Configuration.

This chapter shows you how to logically aggregate physical links to form one logical, higher bandwidth link.

22.1.1 What You Can Do in this Chapter

The Link Aggregation screen ( Section 22.2 on page 137 ) displays global, LAG management, LAG port,

and LACP port settings.

22.2 Link Aggregation

Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port link.

However, the more ports you aggregate then the fewer available ports you have. A trunk group is one logical link containing multiple ports.

The Switch supports both static and dynamic link aggregation.

Note: In a properly planned network, it is recommended to implement static link aggregation only. This ensures increased network stability and control over the trunk groups on your

Switch.

Algorithm

Select Enable to activate the link aggregation control protocol.

LACP system priority is a number between 1 and 65,535. The switch with the lowest system priority (and lowest port number if system priority is the same) becomes the LACP “server”. The

LACP “server” controls the operation of LACP setup. Enter a number to set the priority of an active port using Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP). The smaller the number, the higher the priority level.

Select the outgoing traffic distribution type. Packets from the same source and/or to the same destination are sent over the same link within the trunk. By default, the Switch uses the IP/MAC

Address distribution type. If the Switch is behind a router, the packet’s destination or source

MAC address will be changed. In this case, set the Switch to distribute traffic based on its IP address to make sure port trunking can work properly.

Configuration: Spanning Tree

27.1 Overview

This section provides information for Spanning Tree in Configuration.

The Switch supports Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Multiple

Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) as defined in the following standards.

• IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol

• IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol

• IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol

The Switch also allows you to set up multiple STP configurations (or trees). Ports can then be assigned to the trees.

27.2 Spanning Tree

(R)STP detects and breaks network loops and provides backup links between switches, bridges or routers. It allows a Switch to interact with other (R)STP-compliant switches in your network to ensure that only one path exists between any two stations on the network.

Max Hops

Forward Delay

Priority is part of bridge ID, used for CIST root bridge selection.

Enter a maximum number of hops value. The value can be between 1 and 40.

This is the maximum time (in seconds) a switch will wait before changing states. This delay is required because every switch must receive information about topology changes before it starts to forward frames. In addition, each port needs time to listen for conflicting information that would make it return to a blocking state; otherwise, temporary data loops might result. The allowed range is 4 to 30 seconds.

Max Age

Tx Hold Count

Hello Time

As a general rule:

2 * (Forward Delay - 1) >= Max Age >= 2 * (Hello Time + 1)

This is the maximum time (in seconds) a switch can wait without receiving a BPDU before attempting to reconfigure. All switch ports (except for designated ports) should receive BPDUs at regular intervals. Any port that ages out STP information (provided in the last BPDU) becomes the designated port for the attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is selected from among the switch ports attached to the network. The allowed range is 6 to 40 seconds.

Enter a transmission hold count value. The value can be between 1 and 10.

This is the time interval in seconds between BPDU (Bridge Protocol Data Units) configuration message generations by the root switch. The allowed range is 1 to 10 seconds.

Each LLDP frame contains information about how long the information in the LLDP frame shall be considered valid. The LLDP information valid period is set to Tx Hold multiplied by Tx Interval seconds. Valid values are restricted to 2 - 10 times.

Enter the reinitialization delay value.

When a port is disabled, LLDP is disabled or the switch is rebooted, an LLDP shutdown frame is transmitted to the neighboring units, signaling that the LLDP information isn't valid anymore. Tx

Reinit controls the amount of seconds between the shutdown frame and a new LLDP initialization. Valid values are restricted to 1 - 10 seconds.

Enter the transmission delay value.

If some configuration is changed (e.g. the IP address) a new LLDP frame is transmitted, but the time between the LLDP frames will always be at least the value of Tx Delay seconds. Tx Delay cannot be larger than 1/4 of the Tx Interval value. Valid values are restricted to 1 - 8192 seconds.

Enter the LLDP-MED fast start repeat count value.

Because there is a risk of an LLDP frame being lost during transmission between neighbors, it is recommended to repeat the fast start transmission multiple times to increase the possibility of the neighbors receiving the LLDP frame. With Fast start repeat count it is possible to specify the number of times the fast start transmission would be repeated. The recommended value is 4 times, given that 4 LLDP frames with a 1 second interval will be transmitted, when an LLDP frame with new information is received.

Configuration: QoS

29.1 Overview

This section provides information for QoS (Quality of Service) in Configuration.

29.2 General

Quality of Service (QoS) refers to both a network's ability to deliver data with minimum delay, and the networking methods used to control the use of bandwidth. Without QoS, all traffic data is equally likely to be dropped when the network is congested. This can cause a reduction in network performance and make the network inadequate for time-critical application such as video-on-demand.

The Switch protects against Denial of Service (DoS) attacks, such as Scan attack and Ping of Death. The goal of DoS attacks is not to steal information, but to disable a device or network on the Internet.

By default, the DoS feature is disabled. You need to enable it on the Switch and its port(s). See

Table 153 on page 199 for the types of DoS attacks that the Switch prevents when you turn on this feature. You

cannot set the Switch to block a specific type of DoS attacks.

Ping of Death uses a "ping" utility to create and send an IP packet that exceeds the maximum 65,536 bytes of data allowed by the IP specification. This may cause systems to crash, hang or reboot.

This attack uses IPv6 fragmented packets (excluding the last one) whose payload length is less than 1240 bytes.

This attack uses many small fragmented ICMP packets.

This attack uses Ping packets whose length is larger than 512 bytes.

SMURF Layer 3 IPv4 This attack uses Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) echo requests packets (pings) to cause network congestion or outages.

SYNchronization (SYN), ACKnowledgment (ACK) and FINish (FIN) packets are used to initiate, acknowledge and conclude TCP/IP communication sessions. The following scans exploit weaknesses in the TCP/IP specification and try to illicit a response from a host to identify ports for an attack:

The Switch does not turn on. None of the LEDs turn on.

1

Make sure the Switch is turned on (in DC models or if the DC power supply is connected in AC/DC models).

2

Make sure you are using the power adaptor or cord included with the Switch.

3

Make sure the power adaptor or cord is connected to the Switch and plugged in to an appropriate power source. Make sure the power source is turned on.

4

Turn the Switch off and on (in DC models or if the DC power supply is connected in AC/DC models).

5

Disconnect and re-connect the power adaptor or cord to the Switch (in AC models or if the AC power supply is connected in AC/DC models).

6

If the problem continues, contact the vendor.

One of the LEDs does not behave as expected.

34.2 Switch Access and Login

I forgot the IP address for the Switch.

1

The default in-band IP address is 192.168.1.1.

2

If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 3.4 on page 32 or

Section 33.6 on page 228 .

I forgot the username and/or password.

1

The default username is admin and the default password is 1234.

2

If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 3.4 on page 32 or

Section 33.6 on page 228 .

I cannot see or access the Login screen in the web configurator.

1

Make sure you are using the correct IP address.

• The default in-band IP address is 192.168.1.1.

• If you changed the IP address, use the new IP address.

• If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, see the troubleshooting suggestions for I forgot the IP address for the Switch.

2

Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See

Chapter 2 on page 20

.

3

Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScripts and Java enabled.

4

Make sure your computer is in the same subnet as the Switch. (If you know that there are routers between your computer and the Switch, skip this step.)

5

Reset the device to its factory defaults, and try to access the Switch with the default IP address. See

Section 3.4 on page 32

or Section 33.6 on page 228

Chapter 34 Troubleshooting

6

If the problem continues, contact the vendor, or try one of the advanced suggestions.

Advanced Suggestions

• Try to access the Switch using another service, such as HTTPS. If you can access the Switch, check the remote management settings to find out why the Switch does not respond to HTTP.

I can see the Login screen, but I cannot log in to the Switch.

1

Make sure you have entered the user name and password correctly. The default user name is admin, and the default password is 1234. These fields are case-sensitive, so make sure [Caps Lock] is not on.

2

Check that you have enabled logins for HTTP. If you have configured a secured client IP address, your computer’s IP address must match it. Refer to the chapter on access control for details.

3

Disconnect and re-connect the cord to the Switch.

4

If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See Section 3.4 on page 32 or

Section 33.6 on page 228 .

Pop-up Windows, JavaScripts and Java Permissions

In order to use the web configurator you need to allow:

• Web browser pop-up windows from your device.

• JavaScripts (enabled by default).

• Java permissions (enabled by default).

34.3 Switch Configuration

I lost my configuration settings after I restart the Switch.

Make sure you save your configuration into the Switch’s nonvolatile memory each time you make changes. Click

Save at the top right corner of the web configurator to save the configuration permanently. See also

Section 5.3.1 on page 38
