Chapter 1 Overview

1.1 Introduction

To create reliability in your network, the EKI-7657C comes equipped with a proprietary redundant network protocol—X-Ring that was developed by Advantech, which provides users with an easy way to establish a redundant Ethernet network with ultra high-speed recovery time less than 10 ms.

Aside from 7 x 10/100Base-TX fast Ethernet ports, the EKI-7657C comes equipped with 3 combo 10/100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 copper ports or mini-GBIC expansion ports. Traditional RJ-45 ports can be used for uplinking wide-band paths in short distance (< 100 m), or the appropriate replaceable SFP module can be used for the application of wideband uploading and long distance transmissions to fit the field request flexibility. Also, the long MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) ensures that the EKI-7657C will continue to operate until a Gigabit network infrastructure has been established, without requiring any extra upgrade costs.

1.1.1 The SFP Advantage

The EKI-7657C’s three SFP fiber slots provide a lot of flexibility when planning and implementing a network. The slots can accept any SFP-type fiber module and these modules are designed for transmitting over distances of either 500m (multi-mode), 10km, 30km, 50km, 70km or 110km (single-mode)—and the slots support SFP modules for WDM single-fiber transmissions. This means that you can easily change the transmission mode and distance of the switch by simply pulling out the SFP module and plugging in a different module. The SFP modules are hot-swappable and plug-and-play! Also, the fact that the switch has three of these slots, means that the network manager can, for example, have one 10km module in one slot and one 110km in the other.

1.1.2 High-Speed Transmissions

The EKI-7657C includes a switch controller that can automatically sense transmission speeds (10/100 Mbps). The RJ-45 interface can also be auto-detected, so MDI or MDIX is automatically selected and a crossover cable is not required. All Ethernet ports have memory buffers that support the store-and-forward mechanism. This assures that data is properly transmitted.

1.1.3 Dual Power Input

To reduce the risk of power failure, the EKI-7657C provides +12 ~ 48 V inputs. If there is power failure, EKI-7657C will automatically switch to the secondary power input.

1.1.4 DIDO

EKI-7657C provides 2 digital inputs and 2 digital outputs. When disconnection of the specific port was detected, the digital output will activate the connected warning device to alarm the user. As for the digital inputs, they can integrate sensors into the system to issue alarms by sending Syslog, SMTP, or SNMP Trap.

Page 13

1.1.5 Flexible Mounting

EKI-7657C is compact and can be mounted on a DIN-rail or panel, so it is suitable for any space-constrained environment.

1.1.6 Advanced Protection

The power line of EKI-7657C supports up to 3,000 V equipment against unregulated voltage and make systems safer and more reliable. Meanwhile, 4,000 V suitable for harsh environments.

ESD protections for Ethernet ports make EKI-7657C more

EFT protection, which secure

1.1.7 Wide Operating Temperature

The operating temperature of the EKI-7657C is between -10 ~ 60 ℃. With such a wide

range, you can use the EKI-7657C in some of the harshest industrial environments that exist.

1.1.8 Easy Troubleshooting

LED indicators make troubleshooting quick and easy. Each 10/100 Base-TX port has 2 LEDs that display the link status, transmission speed and collision status. Also the three power indicators P1, P2 and P-Fail help you diagnose immediately.

Then, let the device down straight to slide over the rail smoothly. See Figure 2.7.

Figure 2.7: Installation to DIN-rail Step 2

17 Chapter2

Page 28

2.4 Network Connection

The EKI-7657C has 7 x RJ-45 ports that support connection to 10 Mbps Ethernet, or 100 Mbps Fast Ethernet, and half or full duplex operation. EKI-7657C can be connected to other hubs or switches via a twisted-pair straight-through or crossover cable up to 100m long. The connection can be made from any TX port of the EKI7657C (MDI-X) to another hub or switch either MDI-X or uplink MDI port.

The EKI-7657C supports auto-crossover to make networking more easy and flexible. You can connect any RJ-45 (MDI-X) station port on the switch to any device such as a switch, bridge or router.

2.5 Connection to a Fiber Optic Network

EKI-7657C has three SFP slots for connecting to the network segment with single or multi-mode fiber. You can choose appropriate SFP transceiver to plug into the slot. Make sure the transceiver is aligned correctly and then slide the transceiver into the SFP slot until a click is heard. You can use proper multi-mode or single-mode fiber according to the used SFP transceiver. With fiber optic, it transmits speed up to 1000 Mbps and you can prevent noise interference from the system and transmission distance up to 110 km, depending on the SFP transceiver.

The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical communications for both telecommunication and data communications applications.

Note

The SFP/Copper Combo port can’t be both used at the same time. The SFP port has the higher priority than the copper port; if you insert the 1000M SFP transceiver (which is being connected to the remote device) into the SFP port, the connection of the accompanying copper port will link down. If you insert the 100M SFP transceiver into the SFP port even without a fiber connection to the remote, the connection of the accompanying copper port will link down immediately.

To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown below:

First, insert the transceiver into the SFP module. Notice that the triangle mark is the bottom of the module.

2.6 Power Connection

The EKI-7657C supports dual +12 ~ 48 V

power inputs and power-fail relay output.

Figure 2.13: Pin Assignment of the Power Connector

You can connect an alarm indicator, buzzer or other signaling equipment through the relay output. The relay opens if power input 1, 2 fails or port link down/break (″Open″ means if you connect relay output with an LED, the light would be off).

2.7 Wiring the Digital Inputs/Outputs

EKI-7657C is equipped with two sets of digital input/output contacts of the terminal block connector. Connect the wires to DI0, DI1, DO0, DO1, and GND respectively.

GND is the common ground for DI0, DI1, DO0, and DO1. Don’t connect DO0/DO1 to the external device using power higher than 40V/200mA.

Chapter 3 Configuration

The EKI-7657C can be configured in two ways: via RS-232 Console or a web browser.

3.1 RS-232 Console

EKI-7657C’s RS-232 console is designed for rapidly configuring which provides the console management—CLI command.

Attach the supplied cable, which one end is RJ-45 and the other end is female DB9, to connect EKI7657C and your host PC or terminal. The connected PC or terminal must support the terminal emulation program.

From the Windows desktop, click Start/Programs/Accessories/Communications/HyperTerminal to

open Hyper Terminal program.

Configure spanning tree priority

parameter Use the spanning-tree max-age global configuration command to change the interval between messages the spanning tree receives from the root switch. If a

switch does not receive a bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) message from the root switch within this interval, it recomputed the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) topology. Use the spanning-tree hello-time global configuration command to specify the interval between hello

bridge protocol data units (BPDUs).

Use the spanning-tree forwardtime global configuration command to set the forwarding-time for the specified spanning-tree instances.

The forwarding time determines how long each of the listening and learning states last before the port begins forwarding. Use the spanning-tree cost interface configuration command to set the path cost for Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) calculations. In the

event of a loop, spanning tree considers the path cost when selecting an interface to place into the forwarding state. Use the spanning-tree port-priority interface configuration command

to configure a port priority that is used when two switches tie for

3.2 Web Browser

EKI-7657C provides a convenient configuring way via web browser. You can follow the steps below to access EKI-7657C. EKI-7657C’s default IP is 192.168.1.1. Make sure your host PC and EKI-7657C are on the same logical sub-network.

Warning Your host PC should be in the same VLAN setting with EKI-7657C, or the

management will not be configured.

Connect EKI-7657C to the Ethernet then your host PC could be configured via Ethernet. Or you can directly connect EKI-7657C to your host PC with a straight-through or cross over Ethernet cable.

Before to use web management, install the industrial switch on the network and make sure that any one of PCs on the network can connect with the industrial switch through the web browser. The industrial switch default value of IP, subnet mask, username and password are as below:

• IP Address: 192.168.1.1

• Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0

IP Configuration

User can configure the IP Settings and DHCP client function here.

• DHCP Client: Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When DHCP client function is enabled, the

industrial switch will be assigned an IP address from the network DHCP server. The default IP address

will be replaced by the assigned IP address on DHCP server. After user click Apply, a popup dialog

shows up. It is to inform the user that when the DHCP client is enabled, the current IP will lose and user should find the new IP on the DHCP server.

• IP Address: Assign the IP address that the network is using. If DHCP client function is enabled, and

then the user doesn’t need to assign the IP address. And, the network DHCP server will assign the IP address displaying in this column for the industrial switch. The default IP is 192.168.16.1.

• Subnet Mask: Assign the subnet mask to the IP address. If DHCP client function is enabled, and then

the user does not need to assign the subnet mask.

• Gateway: Assign the network gateway for the industrial switch. The default gateway is 192.168.16.254.

• DNS1: The abbreviation of Domain Name Server—an Internet service that translate domain name into

IP addresses. Domain name are alphabetic which are easy to be remembered. Because the Internet is based on IP address; every time you use a domain name, therefore, a DNS service must translate the

name into the corresponding IP address. For example, the domain name www.net.com might

translate to 192.168.1.1

• DNS2: The backup for DNS1. When DNS1 cannot function, DNS2 will then replace DNS1 immediately.

DHCP Server—System configuration

DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol that is a protocol for assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an administrator to manage the task. This means that a new computer can be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address. The system provides the DHCP server function. The system provides the DHCP server function. Having enabled the DHCP server function, the switch system can be a DHCP server.

• DHCP Server: Enable or Disable the DHCP Server function. Enable—the switch will be the DHCP

server on your local network.

• Low IP Address: Type in an IP address. Low IP address is the beginning of the dynamic IP range. For

example, dynamic IP is in the range between 192.168.1.100 ~ 192.168.1.200. In contrast,

192.168.1.100 is the Low IP address.

• High IP Address: Type in an IP address. High IP address is the end of the dynamic IP range. For

example, dynamic IP is in the range between 192.168.1.100 ~ 192.168.1.200. In contrast,

192.168.1.200 is the High IP address.

• Subnet Mask: Type in the subnet mask of the IP configuration.

• Gateway: Type in the IP address of the gateway in your network.

• DNS: Type in the Domain Name Server IP Address in your network.

• Lease Time (sec): It is the time period that system will reset the dynamic IP assignment to ensure the

dynamic IP will not been occupied for a long time or the server doesn’t know that the dynamic IP is idle.

Port Control

In Port Control, you can pull down the selection items to set the parameters of each port to control the transmitting/receiving packets.

• Port: Select the port that you want to configure.

• State: Current port status. The port can be set to disable or enable mode. If the port state is set as

‘Disable’, it will not receive or transmit any packet.

• Negotiation: Auto and Force. Being set as Auto, the speed and duplex mode are negotiated

automatically. When you set it as Force, you have to assign the speed and duplex mode manually.

• Speed: It is available for selecting when the Negotiation column is set as Force. When the Negotiation

column is set as Auto, this column is read only.

• Duplex: It is available for selecting when the Negotiation column is set as Force. When the Negotiation

column is set as Auto, this column is read only.

• Flow Control: Set flow control function as Enable or Disable. When enabled, once the device exceed

the input data rate of another device as a result the receiving device will send a PAUSE frame which halts the transmission of the sender for a specified period of time. When disabled, the receiving device will drop the packet if too much to process.

• Security: Once the Security selection is set as ‘On’, any access from the device which connects to this

port will be blocked unless the MAC address of the device is included in the static MAC address table. See the segment of Static MAC Table.

Port Trunk

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner. Link aggregation lets you group up to 4 ports into one dedicated connections. This feature can expand

bandwidth to a device on the network. LACP operation requires full-duplex mode, more detail

information refers to IEEE 802.3ad.

Aggregator setting

• System Priority: A value which is used to identify the active LACP. The switch with the lowest value

has the highest priority and is selected as the active LACP.

Group ID:

•

There are four trunk groups to be selected. Choose the ‘

’ and click

Select

• LACP: When enabled, the trunk group is using LACP. A port which joins an LACP trunk group has to

make an agreement with its member ports first. When disabled, the trunk group is a static trunk group. The advantage of having the LACP disabled is that a port joins the trunk group without any handshaking with its member ports. But member ports won’t know that they should be aggregated together to form a logic trunk group.

• Work ports: This column field allows the user to type in the total number of active port up to four. With

Port Mirroring

The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Traffic through ports can be monitored by one specific port which means traffic goes in or out monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port.

• Destination Port: There is only one port can be selected to be the destination (mirroring) port for

monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from the source port. Or, use one of two ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX traffic only. The user can connect the mirroring port to LAN analyzer or Netxray.

• Source Port: The ports that the user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will be copied to mirroring (destination) port. The user can select multiple source ports by ticking the RX or TX

checkboxes to be monitored.

VLAN configuration

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain, which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same VLAN will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically.

Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled, the VLAN-tagging is ignored.

In order for an end station to send packets to different VLAN groups, it itself has to be either capable of tagging packets it sends with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with different VLAN ID based on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the protocol.

802.1Q VLAN

Tagged-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible to create a VLAN across devices from different switch venders. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN uses a technique to insert a “tag” into the Ethernet frames. Tag contains a VLAN Identifier (VID) that indicates the VLAN numbers. You can create Tag-based VLAN, and enable or disable GVRP protocol. There are 256 VLAN groups to provide configuration. Enable 802.1Q VLAN, all ports on the switch belong to default VLAN of VID 1. The default VLAN can’t be deleted.

GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) is a protocol that facilitates control of virtual local area networks (VLANs) within a larger network. GVRP conforms to the IEEE 802.1Q specification, which defines a method of tagging frames with VLAN configuration data. This allows network devices to dynamically exchange VLAN configuration information with other devices. GVRP is based on GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol), a protocol that defines procedures by which end stations and switches in a local area network (LAN) can register and de-register attributes, such as identifiers or addresses, with each other. Every end station and switch thus has a current record of all the other end stations and switches that can be reached.

IGMP Configuration

The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an internal protocol of the Internet Protocol (IP) suite. IP manages multicast traffic by using switches, routers, and hosts that support IGMP. Enabling IGMP allows the ports to detect IGMP queries, report packets, and manage IP multicast traffic through the switch. IGMP have three fundamental types of message shown as follows:

Table 3.19: IGMP types

Message Description

Query

Report

Leave Group

A message sent from the querier (IGMP router or switch) asking for a response from each host belonging to the multicast group.

A message sent by a host to the querier to indicate that the host wants to be or is a member of a given group indicated in the report message.

A message sent by a host to the querier to indicate that the host has quit being a member of a specific multicast group.

The switch supports IP multicast. You can enable IGMP protocol via setting the IGMP Configuration page to see the IGMP snooping information. IP multicast addresses are in the range of 224.0.0.0 through

X-Ring

X-Ring provides a faster redundant recovery than Spanning Tree topology. The action is similar to STP or RSTP, but the algorithms between them are not the same.

In the X-Ring topology, every switch should be enabled with X-Ring function and two ports should be assigned as the member ports in the ring. Only one switch in the X-Ring group would be set as the master switch that one of its two member ports would be blocked, called backup port, and another port is

called working port. Other switches in the X-Ring group are called working switches and their two

member ports are called working ports. When the failure of network connection occurs, the backup port of the master switch (Ring Master) will automatically become a working port to recover from the failure.

The switch supports the function and interface for setting the switch as the ring master or not. The ring master can negotiate and place command to other switches in the X-Ring group. If there are 2 or more switches in master mode, the software will select the switch with lowest MAC address number as the ring master. The X-Ring master ring mode can be enabled by setting the X-Ring configuration interface. Also, the user can identify whether the switch is the ring master by checking the R.M. LED indicator on the panel of the switch.

The system also supports the Couple Ring that can connect 2 or more X-Ring group for the redundant backup function; Dual Homing function that can prevent connection lose between X-Ring group and upper level/core switch. Apart from the advantages, Central Ring can handle up to 4 rings in the system

and has the ability to recover from failure within 10 milliseconds.
