1. Introduction
1-1. Overview of SM8P-SFP
SM8P-SFP, 6-Port 100/1000 Dual Speed SFP + 2-Port RJ-45/100/1000 SFP Managed Switch, is a standard switch that meets all IEEE 802.3/u/x/z Gigabit Ethernet specifications. The switch can be managed through RJ-45 console port via directly connection, or through Ethernet port using CLI or Web-based management unit, associated with SNMP agent. With the SNMP agent, the network administrator can logon the switch to monitor, configure and control each port’s activity in a friendly way. The overall network management is enhanced and the network efficiency is also improved to accommodate high bandwidth applications. In addition, the switch features comprehensive and useful function such as ACL, IP-MAC Binding, DHCP Option 82, QoS (Quality of Service), 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 application.
Others the switch increase support the Power saving for reduce the power consumption with "ActiPHY Power Management" and "PerfectReach Power Management" two technique.It could efficient saving the switch power with auto detectthe client idle and cable length to provide different power.
In this switch, Port 7 and Port 8 include two types of media --- TP and (100/1000M) SFP Fiber (LC, BiDi LC…); this port supports 10/100/1000Mbps TP or 100/1000 Dual Speed SFP Fiber with auto-detected function. (100/1000M) SFP Fibertransceiveris used forhigh-speedconnectionexpansion

10/100/1000Mbps TP is a standard Ethernet port that meets all IEEE
802.3/u/x/z Gigabit, Fast Ethernet specifications. (100/1000M) SFP Fiber transceiver is a Gigabit Ethernet port that fully complies with all IEEE 802.3z and 1000Base-SX/LXstandards and100-FXstandards.
1000Mbps Single Fiber WDM (BiDi) transceiver is designed with an optic Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) technology that transports bi-directional full duplex signal overa single fiber simultaneously.
For upgrading firmware, please refer to the Section 3-21 or Section 4-2-2 for more details. The switch will not stop operating while upgrading firmware and after that,the configurationkeeps unchanged.
The switch also supports the IEEE Standard─ ─ 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol),Provide more easy debug tool and enhance the networking

PortSecurity:
Supportallowed,deniedforwardingand port securitywith MAC address.
Link Layer DiscoveryProtocol(LLDP):
IEEE Standard─ ─ 802.1AB Link Layer Discovery Protocol),Provide more easy debug tool and enhance the networking management availability,
Othersit can provideauto-discovery device and topology providing
SNMP/RMON:
SNMP agent and RMON MIB. In the device, SNMP agent is a client software which is operating over SNMP protocol used to receive the command from SNMP manager (server site) and echo the corresponded data, i.e. MIB object. Besides, SNMP agent will actively issue TRAP informationwhen happened.
RMON is the abbreviation of Remote Network Monitoring and is a branch of the SNMP MIB.
The device supports MIB-2 (RFC 1213), Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), RMON MIB (RFC 1757)-statistics Group 1,2,3,9, Ethernet-like MIB (RFC 1643), EthernetMIB (RFC 1643) and so on.
IGMPSnooping:
Support IGMP version 2 (RFC 2236): The function IGMP snooping is used to establish the multicast groups to forward the multicast packet to the member ports, and, in nature, avoid wasting the bandwidth while IP multicastpacketsare running over thenetwork.
IGMPProxy:
The implementation of IP multicast processing. The switch supports IGMP version 1 and IGMP version 2, efficient use of network bandwidth, and fast response time for channel changing. IGMP version 1 (IGMPv1) is described in RFC1112 ,and IGMP version 2 (IGMPv2) is described in RFC
2236. Hosts interact with the system through the exchange of IGMP messages. Similarly, when you configure IGMP proxy, the system interacts
Page 13

Rev.A1
18-May-11
with the router on its upstream interface through the exchange of IGMP messages. However, when acting as the proxy, the system performs the host portion of the IGMP task onthe upstream interfaceas follows:
When queried, sends group membershipreports to the group.
When one of its hostsjoins a multicast address group to which none of its other hosts belong,sends unsolicited group membershipreportsto that group.
When the lastof its hosts in a particular multicast group leaves the group,sends an unsolicited leave group membershipreportto the all-routers group (244.0.0.2).
PowerSaving:
The Power saving using the "ActiPHY Power Management" and "PerfectReach Power Management" two techniques to detect the client idle and cable length automatically and provides the different power. It could efficientto save theswitch power andreduce the powerconsumption.
Q-
in-QVLAN for performance & security:
The VLAN feature in the switch offers the benefits of both security and performance. VLAN is used to isolate traffic between different users and thus provides better security. Limiting the broadcast traffic to within the same VLAN broadcast domain also enhances performance. Q-in-Q, the use of double VLAN tags is an efficient method for enabling Subscriber Aggregation.Thisis very usefulin the MAN.
MVR:
Multicast VLAN Registration (MVR) can support carrier to serve content provider using multicast for Video streaming application in the network. Each content provider Video streaming has a dedicated multicast VLAN. The MVR routes packets received in a multicast source VLAN to one or more receive VLANs. Clients are in the receive VLANs and the multicast serveris inthe source VLAN.
AccessControl List (ACL):
The ACLs are divided into EtherTypes. IPv4, ARP protocol, MAC and VLAN parameters etc. Here we will just go over the standard and extended access lists for TCP/IP. As you create ACEs for ingress classification, you can assign a policy for each port, the policy number is 1-8, however, each policy can be applied to any port. This makes it very easy to determine what type of ACL policy youwillbe workingwith.
IP-MAC-PortBinding:
The IP network layer uses a four-byte address. The Ethernet link layer uses a six-byte MAC address. Binding these two address types together allows the transmission of data between the layers. The primary purpose of IP­MAC binding is to restrict the access to a switch to a number of authorized users. Only the authorized client can access the Switch’s port by checking the pair of IP-MAC Addresses and port number with the pre-configured database. If an unauthorized user tries to access an IP-MAC binding enabledport, the systemwill block the access by droppingitspacket.

TP Port and CableInstallation
In the switch, TP port supports MDI/MDI-X auto-crossover, so both types of
cable, straight-through (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 1, 2, 3, 6 in 10/100M TP; 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 to 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 in Gigabit TP) and crossed-over (Cable pin-outs for RJ-45 jack 1, 2, 3, 6 to 3, 6, 1, 2) can be used. It means youdo not have to tell from them,just plug it.
Use Cat. 5 grade RJ-45 TP cable to connect to a TP port of the switch and the
other end is connected to a network-aware device such as a workstation or a server.
Repeat the above steps, as needed, for each RJ-45 port to be connected to a
Gigabit10/100/1000TP device.
Now, you canstart having theswitch in operation.
Power On
The switch supports 100-240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power supply. The power supply will automatically convert the local AC power source to DC power. It does not matter whether any connection plugged into the switch or not when power on, even modules as well. After the power is on, all LED indicators will light up immediately and then all off except the power LED still keeps on. This represents a reset of the system.
FirmwareLoading
After resetting, the bootloader will load the firmware into the memory. It will take about 30 seconds, after that, the switch will flash all the LED once and automaticallyperforms self-test and is in readystate.

2-1-3-2.Cabling Requirementsfor 100/1000MSX/LX SFP Module
It is more complex and comprehensive contrast to TP cabling in the fiber media. Basically, there are two categories of fiber, multi mode (MM) and single mode (SM). The later is categorized into several classes by the distance it supports. They are SX, LX, LHX, XD, and ZX. From the viewpoint of connector type, there mainlyare LC and BIDI LC.

2-1-3-3.SwitchCascadinginTopology
Takesthe Delay Time intoAccount
Theoretically, the switch partitions the collision domain for each port in switch cascading that you may up-link the switches unlimitedly. In practice, the network extension (cascading levels & overall diameter) must follow the constraint of the IEEE 802.3/802.3u/802.3z and other 802.1 series protocol specifications, in which the limitations are the timing requirement from physical signals defined by 802.3 series specification of Media Access Control (MAC) and PHY, and timer from some OSI layer 2 protocols such as802.1d, 802.1q, LACP andso on.
The fiber,TP cables anddevices’bit-time delay(roundtrip) are as follows:
Table 2-2
Page 24
16
Sum up all elements’ bit-time delay and the overall bit-time delay of wires/devices must be within Round Trip Delay (bit times) in a half-duplex network segment (collision domain). For full-duplex operation, this will not be applied. You may use the TP-Fiber module to extend the TP node distance over fiber optic and providethe long haul connection.
TypicalNetworkTopologyin Deployment
A hierarchical network with minimum levels of switch may reduce the timing delay between server and client station. Basically, with this approach, it will minimize the number of switches in any one path; will lower the possibility of network loop and will improve network efficiency. If more than two switches are connected in the same network, select one switch as Level 1 switch and connect all other switches to it at Level 2. Server/Host is recommended to connect to the Level 1 switch. This is general if no VLANor other specialrequirementsare applied.
Case1:All switch ports arein the samelocal area network. Every port can access
each other (See Fig. 2-3).
Fig. 2-3 No VLAN Configuration Diagram
If VLAN is enabled and configured, each node in the network that can communicateeachother directly is boundedin the same VLAN area.
Here VLAN area is defined by what VLAN you are using. The switch supports both port-based VLAN and tag-based VLAN. They are different in practical deployment, especially in physical location. The following diagram shows how it works and whatthe differencethey are.

2-1-4.ConfiguringtheManagementAgentofSM8P-SFP
We offer you three ways to startup the switch management function. They are RJ-45 console, CLI, and Web. Users can use any one of them to monitor and configurethe switch. Youcan touch them through the followingprocedures.
Section2-1-4-1:Configuringthe ManagementAgent of SM8P-SFPthrough the
ConsoleRJ-45Port
Section2-1-4-2:Configuringthe ManagementAgent of SM8P-SFPthrough the

Note: Please first modifythe IP address, Subnet mask,Defaultgatewayand DNS
throughRJ-45console, and thendo the next.
2-1-4-1.Configuringthe ManagementAgent of SM8P-SFPthrough the Console
RJ-45 Port
To perform the configuration through RJ-45 console port, the switch’s console port must be directly connected to a DCE device, for example, a PC, through RJ-45 transform RS-232 cable with RJ-45 connector. Next, run a terminal emulator with the default setting of the switch’s serial port. With this, you can communicatewiththeswitch.
In the switch, RJ-45 interface only supports baud rate 115200 bps with 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no paritycheck and no flow control.

2-1-5.IPAddressAssignment
For IP address configuration, there are three parameters needed to be filled
in. They are IP address, Subnet Mask, DefaultGatewayand DNS.
IP address:
The address of the network device in the network is used for internetworking communication. Its address structure looks is shown in the Fig. 2-11. It is “classful” becauseit is split into predefined address classes orcategories.
Each class has its own network range between the network identifier and host identifier in the 32 bits address. Each IP address comprises two parts: network identifier (address) and host identifier (address). The former indicates the network where the addressed host resides, and the latter indicates the individual host in the network which the address of host refers to. And the host identifier must be unique in the same LAN. Here the term of IP addresswe used is version 4, known as IPv4.
32 bits
Networkidentifier Hostidentifier
Fig. 2-11 IP addressstructure
With the classful addressing, it divides IP address into three classes, class A, class B and class C. The rest of IP addresses are for multicast and broadcast. The bit length of the network prefix is the same as that of the subnet mask and is denoted as IP address/X, for example, 192.168.1.0/24. Each class has its address rangedescribedbelow.
ClassA:
Address is less than 126.255.255.255. There are a total of 126 networks can be defined because the address 0.0.0.0 is reserved for default route and
127.0.0.0/8isreservedfor loopback function.
Bit # 0 1 7 8 31
Network address Host address
Class B:
IP address range between 128.0.0.0 and 191.255.255.255. Each class B network has a 16-bit network prefix followed 16-bit host address. There are 16,384 (2^14)/16 networks able to be defined with a maximum of 65534 (2^16 –2) hosts per network.

Class C:
IP address range between 192.0.0.0 and 223.255.255.255. Each class C network has a 24-bit network prefix followed 8-bit host address. There are 2,097,152 (2^21)/24 networks able to be defined with a maximum of 254 (2^8 –2) hosts per network.
Bit # 0 1 2 3 23 24 31
Network address Host address
Class D and E:
Class D is a class with first 4 MSB (Most significance bit) set to 1-1-1-0 and is used for IP Multicast. See also RFC 1112. Class E is a class with first 4 MSB set to 1-1-1-1 andis used for IP broadcast.
According to IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), there are three specific IP address blocks reserved and able to be used for extending internal network.We call it Private IP address andlist below:
Pleaserefer to RFC 1597 andRFC 1466 for more information.
Subnetmask:
It means the sub-division of a class-based network or a CIDR block. The subnet is used to determine how to split an IP address to the network prefix and the host address in bitwise basis. It is designed to utilize IP address more efficiently and ease to manageIP network.
For a class B network, 128.1.2.3, it may have a subnet mask 255.255.0.0 in default, in which the first two bytes is with all 1s. This means more than 60 thousands of nodes in flat IP address will be at the same network. It’s too large to manage practically. Now if we divide it into smaller network by extending network prefix from 16 bits to, say 24 bits, that’s using its third byte to subnet this class B network. Now it has a subnet mask 255.255.255.0, in which each bit of the first three bytes is 1. It’s now clear that the first two bytes is used to identify the class B network, the third byte is used to identify the subnet within this class B network and, of course, the last byte is the host number.

255.255.255.128, contains 126 members in the sub-netted network. Another is that the length of network prefix equals the number of the bit with 1s in that subnet mask. With this, you can easily count the number of IP addresses matched. The following tableshows the result.
Not all IP address is available in the sub-netted network. Two special

In this diagram, you can see the subnet mask with 25-bit long,
Table 2-4
Page 32
24
According to the scheme above, a subnet mask 255.255.255.0 will partition a network with the class C. It means there will have a maximum of 254 effective nodes existed in this sub-netted network and is considered a physical network in an autonomous network. So it owns a network IP address which may looks like
168.1.2.0.
With the subnet mask, a bigger network can be cut into small pieces of network. If we want to have more than two independent networks in a worknet, a partition to the network must be performed. In this case, subnet mask must be applied.
For different network applications, the subnet mask may look like
255.255.255.240. This means it is a small network accommodating a maximum of 15 nodes inthe network.
Defaultgateway:
For the routed packet, if the destination is not in the routing table, all the traffic is put into the device with the designated IP address, known as default router. Basically, it is a routing policy. The gateway setting is used for Trap Events Host only in theswitch.
For assigning an IP address to the switch, you just have to check what the IP address of the network will be connected with the switch. Use the same network address and appendyourhost address to it.
Fig. 2-12
First, IP Address: as shown in the Fig. 2-12, enter “192.168.1.77”, for instance.For sure, anIP address suchas 192.168.1.x must beset on your PC.
Second, Subnet Mask: as shown in the Fig. 2-12, enter “255.255.255.0”. Any subnetmask such as 255.255.255.xis allowable in this case.
DNS:
The Domain Name Server translates human readable machine name to IP address. Every machine on the Internet has a unique IP address. A server generally has a static IP address. To connect to a server, the client needs to know the IP of the server. However, user generally uses the name to connect to the server. Thus, the switch DNS client program (such as a browser) will ask the DNS to resolve the IP address of the named server.

3-1-3.TimeConfiguration
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 an user-defined NTP server IP address. The time zone is Greenwich-centered which uses the expression form of GMT+/-xx hours.
Functionname:
Time
Functiondescription:
Set the system time by manual input or set it by syncing from Time servers. Thefunction also supports daylight saving for different area’s time adjustment.
Fig. 3-6
Parameterdescription:
CurrentTime:
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
Page 44
36
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 figureand press <Apply> button, the devicewill 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 notupdatethe 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 configurabletimezone from –12to +13 step 1 hour.
DefaultTimezone: +8 Hrs.
DaylightSaving:
Daylight saving is adopted in some countries. If set, it will adjust the time lag or in advance in unit of hours, according to the starting date and the ending date. For example, if you set the day light saving to be 1 hour. When the time passes over the starting time, the system time will be increased one hour after one minute at the time since it passed over. And when the time passes over the ending time, the system time will be decreasedone hour afterone minute at the time since it passedover.
The switch supports valid configurable day light saving time is –5 ~ +5 step one hour. The zero for this parameter means it need not have to adjust current time, equivalent to in-act daylight saving. You don’t have to set the starting/ending date as well. If you set daylight saving to be non­zero, you have to set the starting/ending date as well; otherwise, the daylightsaving function will not beactivated.
Defaultfor Daylight Saving: 0. Thefollowing parametersare configurablefor the functionDaylight

3-1-4.IPConfiguration
IP configuration is one of the most important configurations in the switch. Without the proper setting, network manager will not be able to manage or view the device. The switch supports both manual IP address setting and automatic IP address setting via DHCP server. When IP address is changed, you must reboot the switch to have the setting taken effect and use the new IP to browse for web managementandCLImanagement.
Functionname:
IPConfiguration
Functiondescription:
Set IP address, subnet mask,default gateway and DNSfor the switch.
Parameterdescription:
DHCPSetting:
DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Here DHCPmeans a switch to turnON or OFF the function.
The switch supports DHCP client used to get an IP address automatically if you set this function “Enable”. When enabled, the switch will issue the request to the DHCP server resided in the network to get an IP address. If DHCP server is down or does not exist, the switch will issue the request and show IP address is under requesting, until the DHCP server is up. Before getting an IP address from DHCP server, the device will not continue booting procedures. If set this field “Disable”, you’ll have to input IP address manually. For more details about IP address and DHCP, pleasesee the Section2-1-5 “IPAddressAssignment” in thismanual.
Default: Disable

IPaddress:
Users can configure the IP settings and fill in new values if users set the DHCPfunction“Disable”. Then,click <Apply> button toupdate.
WhenDHCPis disabled, Default: 192.168.1.77 If DHCP is enabled, this fieldis filled by DHCP server and will not allow
user manually set it any more.
Subnetmask:
Subnet mask is made for the purpose to get more network address because any IP device in a network must own its IP address, composed of Network address and Host address, otherwise can’t communicate with other devices each other. But unfortunately, the network classes A, B, and C are all too large to fit for almost all networks, hence, subnet mask is introduced to solve this problem. Subnet mask uses some bits from host address and makes an IP address looked Network address, Subnet mask number and host address. It is shown in the following figure. This reduces the total IP number of a network able to support, by the amount of 2 power of the bit number of subnet number (2^(bit number of subnet number)).
32 bits
NetworkID Host ID
Network ID HostID
Subnetnumber
Subnet mask is used to set the subnet mask value, which should be the same value as that of the other devices resided in the same network it attaches.
For more information, please also see the Section 2-1-5 “IP Address Assignment”in this manual.
Default:255.255.255.0
Defaultgateway:
Set an IP address for a gateway to handle those packets that do not meet the routing rules predefined in the device. If a packet does not meet the criteria for other pre-defined path, it must be forwarded to a default router on a default path. This means any packet with undefined IP addressin the routingtable will besent to this device unconditionally.
Default:192.168.1.254
Page 48
40
DNS:
It is Domain Name Server used to serve the translation between IP addressand name address.
The switch supports DNS client function to re-route the mnemonic name address to DNS server to get its associated IP address for accessing Internet. User can specify a DNS IP address for the switch. With this, the switchcan translate a mnemonic name address into an IPaddress.
There are two ways to specify the IP address of DNS. One is fixed mode, which manually specifies its IP address, the other is dynamic mode, which is assigned by DHCP server while DHCP is enabled. DNS can help you easily remember the mnemonic address name with the meaningfulwords in it.Defaultis no assignment of DNSaddress.
Default:0.0.0.0

Functionname:
VirtualStack
Functiondescription:
Virtual Stack Management(VSM) is the group management function. Through the proper configuration of this function, switches in the same LAN will be grouped automatically. And among these switch, one switch will be a master machine,and the othersin this group will becomethe slave devices.
VSM offers a simple centralized management function. It is not necessary to remember the address of all devices, manager is capable of managing the network with knowing the address of the Master machine. Instead of SNMP or Telnet UI, VSM is only available in Web UI. While one switch become the Master, two rows of buttons for group device will appear on the top of its Web UI. By pressing these buttons, user will be allowed to connect the Web UI of the devices ofthe group in the same window without the loginof thesedevice.
The most top-left button is only for Master device(See Fig.3-9). The background color of the button you press will be changed to represent that the deviceis under your management.
Note: It will remove the grouping temporarily in case that you login the switch
via the console.
The device of the group will be shown as station address ( the last number of IP Address) + device name on the button (e.g. 196_SM8P-SFP), otherwise it will show ” ---- “ if no corresponding device exists.
Once the devices join the group successfully, then they are merely able to be managed via Master device, and user will fail to manage them via telnet/console/webindividually.
Up to 16 devices can be grouped for VSM, however, only one Master is allowed to exist in each group. For Master redundancy, user may configure more than two devices as Master device, however, the Master device with the smaller MAC value will be the Master one. All of these 16 devices can become Master device and back up with each other .

FlowControl:
There are two modes to choose in flow control, including Enable and Disable. If flow control is set Enable, both parties can send PAUSE frame to the transmitting device(s) if the receiving port is too busy to handle. When it is set Disable, there will be no flow control in the port. It drops the packet if too muchto handle.
MaximumFrame:
This module offer 1518~9600 (Bytes) length to make the long packet.
ExcessiveCollision Mode:
There are two modes to choose when excessive collision happen in half­duplexconditionas below:
Discard:The “Discard”mode determines whether the MACdrop frames afteran excessive collision has occurred.If set, a frame is dropped after excessivecollisions.This is IEEE Std 802.3 half-duplex flow control operation.
Restart:The“Restart”mode determines whether the MAC retransmits frames after an excessivecollisionhas occurred. If set, aframe is not droppedafterexcessivecollisions,butthe backoffsequenceis restarted. This is a violation of IEEE Std 802.3, but is useful in non-dropping half­duplexflowcontrol operation.

Functiondescription:
The VLAN Mode Selection function includes five modes: Port-based, Tag­based, Metro Mode, Double-tag and Disable, you can choose one of them by pulling down list and selecting an item. Then, click <Apply> button, the settingswilltake effect immediately.
Fig. 3-17
Parameterdescription:
VLANMode:
Port-based:
Port-based VLAN is defined by port. Any packet coming in or outgoing from any one port of a port-based VLAN will be accepted. No filtering criterion applies in port-based VLAN. The only criterion is the physical port you connect to. For example, for a port-based VLAN named PVLAN-1 contains port members Port 1&2&3&4. If you are on the port 1, you can communicate with port 2&3&4. If you are on the port 5, then you cannot talk to them. Each port-based VLAN you built up must be assigned a group name. This switch can support up to maximal 24 port­basedVLAN groups.
Tag-based:
Tag-based VLAN identifies its member by VID. This is quite different from port-based VLAN. If there are any more rules in ingress filtering list or egress filtering list, the packet will be screened with more filtering criteria to determine if it can be forwarded. The switch supports supplement of 802.1q. For more details, please see the section VLAN in Chapter 3.
Each tag-based VLAN you built up must be assigned VLAN name and VLAN ID. Valid VLAN ID is 1-4094. User can create total up to 4094 TagVLAN groups.

This switch can be set IGMP function “Enable” or “Disable” by VLAN group. If the VLAN group IGMP proxy is disabled, the switch will stop the exchange of IGMP messages in the VLAN group members. If the VLAN group IGMP proxy is enabled, the switch will support the exchange of IGMP messages in the VLAN group members and follow up IGMP proxy router port configuration, which connects to a router closer to the root of the tree. This interface is the upstream interface. The router on the upstream interface should be running IGMP. You enable IGMP on the interfaces that connect the system to its hosts that are farther away from the root of the tree. These interfaces are known as downstream interfaces. Please refer to 3-15-1fordetail IGMP Proxy function description.

3-3-4.Ports
Functionname:
Ports(Under tag-base VLAN mode)
Functiondescription:
In VLAN Tag Rule Setting, user can input VID number to each port. The range of VID number is from 1 to 4094. User also can choose ingress filtering rules to each port. There are two ingress filtering rules which can be applied to the switch. The Ingress Filtering Rule 1 is “forward only packets with VID matching this port’s configured VID”. The Ingress Filtering Rule 2 is “drop untagged frame”. You can alsoselect the Role of each port asAccess, Trunk, or Hybrid.
Fig. 3-24
Parameterdescription:
Port 1-8:
Portnumber.
VLANAware:
Based on IEEE802.1Q VLAN tagto forward packet
IngressFiltering:
Discardother VLAN group packets,only forward this portjoinedVLAN grouppackets
FrameType:
All: Forward all taggedand untagged packets Tagged:Forwardtagged packets only and discarduntaggedpackets
PVID:
This PVID range will be 1-4094. Before you set a number x as PVID, you have to create a Tag-based VLAN with VID x. For example, if port x receives an untagged packet, the switch will apply the PVID (assume as VID y) of port x to tag this packet, the packet then will be forwarded as the tagged packetwith VID y.
Page 75
67
Rev.A1
18-May-11
Role:
This is an egress rule of the port. Here you can choose Access, Trunk or Hybrid. Trunk means the outgoing packets must carry VLAN tag header. Access means the outgoing packets carry no VLAN tag header. If packets have double VLAN tags, one will be dropped and the other will still be left. As to Hybrid, it is similar to Trunk, and both of them will tag­out. When the port is set to Hybrid, its packets will be untagged out if the VID of the outgoing packets with tag is the same as the one in the field of Untag VID of this port.
UntagVID:
Validrange is 1~4094.It works only when Role is set to Hybrid.
DoubleTag:
Double-tagmode belongs to thetag-basedmode, however,it would treat all frames asthe untagged ones,which means thattag with PVIDwill be added into allpackets.Then, these packets willbe forwarded as Tag­based VLAN. So, the incoming packets with tagwill become the double­tagones. Scroll to enable the functionand default is Disable.

3-3-5.PortIsolation
Functionname:
PortIsolation
Functiondescription:
Port Isolation provides for an apparatus and method to isolate ports on layer 2 switches on the same VLAN to restrict traffic flow. The apparatus comprises a switch having said plurality of ports, each port configured as a protected port or a non-protected port. An address table memory stores an address table having a destination address and port number pair. A forwarding map generator generates a forwarding map which is responsive to a destination address of a data packet. The method for isolating ports on a layer 2 switch comprises configuring each of the ports on the layer 2 switch as a protected port or a non-protected port. A destination address on an data packet is matched with a physical address on said layer 2 switch and a forwarding map is generated for the data packet based upon the destination address on the data packet. The data packet is then sent to the plurality of ports pursuant to the forwarding map generated based upon whether the ingress port was configuredas a protectedor non-protectedport.

3-6. QoS(Quality of Service) Configuration
The switch support four QoS queues per port with strict or weighted fair queuing scheduling. There are 8 QoS Control Lists (QCL) for advance programmable QoS classification, based on IEEE 802.1p, Ethertype, VID, IPv4/IPv6 DSCP and UDP/TCP ports and ranges.
High flexibility in the classification of incoming frames to a QoS class. The QoS classification looks for information up to Layer 4, including IPv4 and IPv6 DSCP, IPv4 TCP/UDP port numbers, and user priority of tagged frames. This QoS classification mechanism is implemented in a QoS control list (QCL). The QoS class assigned to a frame is used throughout the device for providing queuing, scheduling, and congestion control guarantees to the frame according to what was configured for that specific QoSclass.
The switch support advanced memory control mechanisms providing excellent performance of all QoS classes under any traffic scenario, including jumbo frame. A super priority queue with dedicated memory and strict highest priority in the arbitration. The ingress super priority queue allows traffic recognized as CPU traffic to be received and queued for transmission to the CPU even when all the QoS class queues are congested.
