AirLive Ether-GSH8TW v2 / 8TW+v2 User’s Manual

Chapter 1 Introduction

Ether-GSH8TW v2/GSH8TW+ v2 is high speed switch that provides up to 8 10/100/1000Mbps copper

Ethernet ports (2 x MiniGBIC for Ether-8TW+ v2). Besides, it provides many advanced functions for nowadays

variety of network application but at lower costs. Users doesn’t have to learn many sophisticated management

functions which are usually shown in SNMP switch but just to learn some simple or common control or setting

function through either out-of-band RS232 port or Ethernet port. However, some new, advanced and important

functions such as Tag-VLAN, Trunking, RSTP and IGMP are also supported same as SNMP switch. This

means, users doesn’t have to pay high costs as traditional layer 2 SNMP switch while one still can get

advanced or common function to meet the requirements of an advanced network application. This makes it

very suitable for small or medium size company to build up simple network at beginning phase with lower cost.

An optional long-ear accessory also makes it possible to operate in the rack mount environment.

Non-blocking and maximum wire speed performance is designed on all switched ports. It not only supports

auto-negotiation but also AUTO-MDIX function on all switched 8 10/100/1000M RJ-45 Gigabit copper ports no

matter running with half or full duplex mode. These functions make users easy to use and reduce the matching

effort between straight and cross-over line issues.

8G web smart switch supports both port-based and 802.1Q (tag-based) VLAN to catch-up the application

needed for coming VLAN age. To increase bandwidth application, it supports up to 4 trunk groups with

maximum 8 ports on one trunk, moreover, these trunk ports are with fair-over function to provide redundant

back-up when one or some of trunk ports malfunction. Moreover, to reduce convergent time of STP protocol,

Rapid STP (RSTP) is supported. To support multicast application IGMP is also supported.

Full LED status display eases user’s installation and inspection, a reset button is also provided to allow users

to easily go back to default setting.

Chapter 2 Web management

After login is successfully validated, the switch’s home page will show up. The left part on the page provides

the function menus, while the right part provides the individual configuration value or system parameters value.

Function manuals are divided into three categories: Configuration, Monitoring and Maintenance, and all
functions are shown briefly below.

AirLive Ether-GSHTW v2 / 8TW+v2 User’s Manual

2.1 Configurations

2.1.1 System

The system diagram shows general common system information, they are H/W, F/W version, MAC address, IP

address, subnet mask, IP gateway, default VLAN value of management port, name, password, timeout value,

and SNMP communities…etc. Once the user finish the setting, he must press the “ Apply “ button to execute all

his setting, and whenever he needs, he may press the “ Refresh “ button to get updated status of system

information.

AirLive Ether-GSH8TW v2 / 8TW+v2 User’s Manual

2.1.1.1 DHCP

The default DHCP is off, so Default IP or user defined IP is used when this machine is turning-ON, but if this

switch needs an IP assigned from DHCP server, user may click the square field and then press “ Apply “ to get

an IP which will be assigned by DCHP server “. User must be aware that if he enables DHCP from web page,

and if the DHCP server is working, then after enabling DHCP, he will lose contact of the web page, because

the IP address has been changed. At this moment, go through terminal mode and check configuration of

IP, then get Dynamic IP to return to web page.

2.1.1.2 Relocate HTTP port number

The default port number of HTTP command is 80, but unauthorized users may intrude this switch if he knows
the IP of this switch. Network manager may relocate this port number to other value, from 1024 to 65535, the

same idea as above, once network manager change the value of HTTP’s port number, he will lose contact and

he must regain web page by command modified as below:

http://192.168.1.100:port_value

2.1.1.3 Tag VLAN management group (CPU port)

At first time you turn on this device, all ports belong to default VLAN ID group (VID = 1), so they can

communicate to each other, and hence any port can be used as web management port to talk with CPU port

inside. But, for example, assume user uses port 1 as web management port, then user create VLAN ID = 10 on

port 7,8 and create another VLAN ID = 20 on port 5,6, now 3 VLAN groups will be shown on VLAN group table

after he press “ Apply “ button. If VLAN 10 and VLAN ID 20 must be isolated, then user must delete member

port 5,6,7,8 in default VLAN group (VID = 1). Be aware that CPU port still remains on VID = 1 group now, user

can only perform web management through one of 4 ports, that is port 1,2,3,4, but if user want to perform

web management from other port in existing different VLAN group, for example port 8 in VID =10, then

after creating new VLAN groups, he must go to system configuration page, and select Tag VLAN
Management Group to 10 by pressing “ Apply “ command, then move RJ-45 ( web management port )

from port 1 to port 8, then user can perform web management from new RJ-45 port again. But if user forgets

which group that CPU belongs to, there are two ways to solve this condition below.

(1) Through console port, check configuration of IP if he gets password

(2) Press “Reset” button few seconds, let system return to default settings, that is,

---- >> IP address = 192.168.1.100; … VID = 1, all settings return to factory default
