The SNMP-24MGB is a 24-port Gigabit L2+ Managed Switch with 8-Port Gigabit TP/SFP
slots and 16-Port Gigabit SFP slots. This Switch can be used to build high-performance
switched workgroup networks. The switch can be managed through RS-232 serial port via
directly connection, or through Ethernet port using CLI or Web-based management unit,
associated with SNMP agent. In addition, the switch features comprehensive and useful
functions such as QoS, Spanning Tree, VLAN, Port Trunking, Bandwidth Control, Port
Security, SNMP/RMON, IGMP Snooping capability via the intelligent software. It is suitable
for both metro-LAN and office applications.
Note:
The switch was for using indoor purpose, if it was used in outdoor environ ment or con nect with ca ble
to outdoor then it must to use a lightning arrester to protect the switch.

The default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0
The default Gateway is 192.168.1.254
The default username is admin
The default password is airlive
3.2 Prepare your PC
The SNMP-24MGB can be managed remotely by a PC through RJ-45 cable. The default
IP address of the SNMP-24MGB is 192.168.1.1 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
This means the IP address of the PC should be in the range of 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.253.
To prepare your PC for management with the SNMP-24MGB, please do the following:
1. Connect your PC directly to the copper port of SNMP-24MGB
2. Set your PC’s IP address manually to 192.168.1.100 (or other address in the same
subnet)

3. Configuring the SNMP-24MGB
You are ready now to configure the SNMP-24MGB by using your PC.
3.3 Management Interface
The SNMP-24MGB can be configured using on the management interfaces below:
Web Management (HTTP): You can manage your SNMP-24MGB by simply typing its
IP address in the web browser. Most functions of SNMP-24MGB can be accessed by
web management inter face. We recommend using this interface for initial
configurations. To begin, simply enter SNMP-24MGB’s IP address (default is
192.168.1.1) on the web browser. The default username is admin and password is
airlive.
Console Management (Terminal): SNMP-24MGB can be managed through terminal
emulation program or Hyper Terminal.
When the connection between SNMP-24MGB and PC is ready, turn on the PC and run
a terminal emulation program or Hyper Terminal and configure its communication
parameters to match the following default characteristics of the console port
After finishing the parameter settings, click “OK“. When the blank screen shows up,
press Enter key to bring out the login prompt. Key in the “admin“(default value) for the
User name and “airlive” for the Password (use Enter key to switch), then press Enter
key and the Main Menu of console management appears. Please see below figure for

use the telnet, please open the command line windows. Then type “telnet 192.168.1.1”
to start.
When asking for username and password, please enter “admin” as username and “airlive”
as password.
After you login successfully, the prompt will be shown as “#“ if you are the first login person
and your authorization is administrator; otherwise it may show “$“. See the following two
figures. The former means you behave as an administrator and have the access right of the
system. As to the latter, it means you behave as a guest and are only allowed to view the
system without the permission to do any setting for this switch.

3.4 Introduction to Web Management
The SNMP-24MGB offers Web Management interfaces for users. Users can easily
access and control SNMP-24MGB via web browsers. The Web-Based Management
supports Internet Explorer 5.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim to reduce network
bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing screen.
Note: By default, IE5.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. The
user has to explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use network
ports.

4. Web Management in SNMP-24MGB
4.2.3 Time Configuration
The switch provides manual and automatic ways to set the system time via NTP. Manual
setting is simple and you just input “Year”, “Month”, “Day”, “Hour”, “Minute” and “Second”
within the valid value range indicated in each item. If you input an invalid value, for example,
61 in minute, the switch will clamp the figure to 59.
NTP is a well-known protocol used to synchronize the clock of the switch system time over
a network. NTP, an internet draft standard formalized in RFC 1305, has been adopted on
the system is version 3 protocol. The switch provides four built-in NTP server IP addresses
resided in the Internet and a user-defined NTP server IP address. The time zone is
Greenwich-centered which uses the expression form of GMT+/- xx hours.
Function name:

Function description:
Set the system time by manual input or set it by syncing from Time servers. The
function also supports daylight saving for different area’s time adjustment.

Parameter description:
Current Time:
Show the current time of the system.
Manual:
This is the function to adjust the time manually. Filling the valid figures in the fields
of Year, Month, Day, Hour, Minute and Second respectively and press <Apply>
button, time is adjusted. The valid figures for the parameter Year, Month, Day,
Hour, Minute and Second are >=2000, 1-12, 1-31, 0-23, 0-59 and 0-59
respectively. Input the wrong figure and press <Apply> button, the device will
reject the time adjustment request. There is no time zone setting in Manual mode.
Default: Year = 2000; Month = 1; Day = 1; Hour = 0, Minute = 0; Second = 0
NTP:
NTP is Network Time Protocol and is used to sync the network time based
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). If use the NTP mode and select a built-in NTP time
server or manually specify an user-defined NTP server as well as Time Zone, the
switch will sync the time in a short after pressing <Apply> button. Though it
synchronizes the time automatically, NTP does not update the time periodically
without user’s processing.
Time Zone is an offset time off GMT. You have to select the time zone first and
then perform time sync via NTP because the switch will combine this time zone
offset and updated NTP time to come out the local time, otherwise, you will not
able to get the correct time. The switch supports configurable time zone from –12
to +13 step 1 hour.
Default Time zone: +8 Hrs.
