2.4.1. Pre-Installation Considerations

Gigabit Considerations:

If you will use the switch for Gigabit applications, keep in mind that the
maximum UTP cabling length of Category 5e cable is 328 feet (100 meters).

Positioning the switch:

When choosing a location for the switch, observe the following guidelines:
Keep enough ventilation space between the switch and the surrounding
objects.
Keep cabling away from sources of electrical noise, power lines, and
fluorescent lighting fixtures.
Do not stack free-standing switch more than four units high.

2.4.2. Desktop or Shelf Mounting

To install the switch on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps:

Step 1 Place the switch on a desktop or shelf near an AC power source.
Step 2 Keep enough ventilation space between the switch and the surrounding

objects.

Note: When choosing a location, keep in mind the environmental restrictions

discussed in Chapter 4, Specifications.

Step 3 Connect the switch to network devices.

A. Connect one end of a standard network cable to the RJ11/RJ-45

ports on the front of the switch.

B. Connect the other end of the cable to the network devices such as

printer servers, VoIP, Video, workstations or routers.

Step 4 Supply power to the switch.

A. Connect one end of the power cable to the switch.
B. Connect the power cube end of the power cable to a standard wall

outlet.

2.5. Rack- Mount Placement

Before mounting the Switch, please read the following instructions carefully,

A) Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack
assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to
installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum
ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.
B) Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such
that the amount of air flow required for safe operation of the equipment is not
compromised.
C) Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be
such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical
loading.
D) Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of
the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the
circuits might have on over current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.

-7-

E) Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should
be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power strips)."

To mount the Switch in any standard-sized, 19-inch wide, 1U high rack, please
follow these instructions:
Place the Switch on a hard flat surface with the front panel facing you.
Attach a rack–mount bracket to one side of the Switch with the supplied
screws. Then attach the other bracket to the other side. (Figure 2.5.1)

Figure 2.5.1

Make sure the brackets are properly attached to the Switch.
Use the appropriate screws (not included) to securely attach the brackets to
your rack. (Figure 2.5.2)

analysis port

 Analysis (Monitoring) Port: It’ means Analysis port can be used to see

the traffic on another port you want to monitor.

 Monitored Port: The port you want to monitor. The monitor port traffic will

be copied to Analysis port. You can select one monitor port in the switch.
User can choose which port that they want to monitor in only one sniffer

type.
Note: The Analysis port is dedicated for monitoring usage. That is to say, the
ordinary port function will be unavailable on Analysis port.

-15-

Protected Port

There are two protected port groups. Ports in different groups can't
communicate each other.
In the same group, protected ports can't communicate each other, but can
communicate with unprotected ports. Unprotected ports can communicate with
any ports, including protected ports. In default, all ports are in Group1 and not
protected.

3.2.2.5. SNMP Configuration

Any Network Management platform running the Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP) can manage the switch; The SNMP is a Protocol that

governs the transfer of information between management station and agent.
NMS manages an SNMP-enabled network. It uses SNMP to manage and
monitor the network devices in the network. NMS can be a server that
manages the network or an application performing management function on a
device. NMS can send a request to an agent to query or modify one or more
variables. At the same time, NMS can receive traps sent by the agent to obtain
the status of the managed device. Currently, SNMP includes three versions:
SNMPv1, SNMPv2c and SNMPv3.

SNMPv1

SNMPv1 is the first version of the SNMP protocol, providing a minimum
network management function. The Structure of Management Information
(SMI) and MIB of SNMPv1 are rather simple and have many security defects.
SNMPv1 uses community name for authentication. A community name plays a
similar role as a password and can be used to control access from NMS to

-16-

Agent. SNMP packets with community names that do not pass the
authentication on the device are simply discarded.

SNMPv2c

SNMPv2c also uses community name for authentication. Compatible with
SNMPv1, it extends the functions of SNMPv1. SNMPv2c provides more
operation modes such as GetBulk; it supports more data types such as
Counter32; and it provides various error codes, thus being able to distinguish
errors in more detail.

SNMPv3

By adopting User-based Security Model (USM) and View-based Access
Control (VACM) technologies, SNMPv3 enhances security. USM offers
authentication and privacy functions; while VACM controls users’ access to
specific MIBs.

System options

User can define a name, location, and contact person for the switch or
enable/disable the SNMP function in this page .Fill in the system options data,
and then click Apply to update the changes. Name/ Location/ Contact: when
the network management station connect the agent correctly the “name”,
“location” and “contact” will be displayed in the SNMP tool . This information is
the description of the SNMP agent. Of course, we can modify this information
on the network management station. SNMP Status: Enable/Disable SNMP
Function

Community strings

If network management station wants to connect the SNMP agent with SNMP
v1 or SNMP v2, the community string will be served as passwords to visit the
MIB-object Information and the privilege of this access will be set by selecting
“RO” and “RW”. RO meats you can only read the MIB; RW meats you can read
and set the MIB.

-17-

Trap Manager

Trap Manager is a management station that receives traps, the system alerts
generated by the switch. If no trap manager is defined, no traps are issued.
Create a trap manager by entering the IP address of the station and a
community string.

SNMPv3 Group

The group will be used in V3 access. In SNMP v3 group you can indicate
group name security model and group security

SNMPv3 View

V3 View only used on NNMP v3 .When the network management station visit
the SNMP agent, the V3 View is used to limit the privilege to visit the
Management Information Base. You can only view the MIB information (for
example: system name, interface) which included in the view you created.
Include/excluded indicate that the device feature OID include the Subtree ID or
not. View mask: A Subtree OID used with a View mask defines a view Subtree.
A View mask is in hexadecimal format. After it is converted to binary bits, each
bit corresponds to a node of the OID, where:

1 means full match, that is, the OID of the MIB object to be accessed must

be identical to the Subtree OID.

0 means wildcard match, that is, the OID of the MIB object to be accessed

can be different from the Subtree OID.
For example, provided the View mask 0xDB (11011011 in binary) and the
Subtree OID 1.3.6.1.6.1.2.1, their relationship is as shown as following. The
view determined by them includes all the nodes under the Subtree whose OID
is 1.3.*.1.6.*.2.1, where * represents any number.

Subtree OID 1 3 6 1 6 1 2 1

Subtree mask 1 1 0 1 1 0 1 1

-18-

SNMPv3 Access

SNMPv3 Access control users’ access to management information. Only a
user with access rights can manage the objects. When a user accesses the
management information, he can access only the objects defined by the
corresponding MIB view.

SNMPv3 USM-User

USM introduces the concepts of username and group. You can set the
authentication and privacy functions. The former is used to authenticate the
validity of the sending end of the authentication packets, preventing access of
illegal users; the latter is used to encrypt packets between the NMS and Agent,
preventing the packets from being intercepted. USM ensures a more secure
communication between SNMP NMS and SNMP Agent by authentication with
privacy, authentication without privacy, or no authentication no privacy

-19-

3.2.2.6. Syslog

This system supports syslog sent to a remote syslog server. Currently system
will do syslog for 3 events: cold start, warm start And link change. In this page,
user needs to setup the following parameters to activate the syslog: Syslog
server IP: The IP address of remote syslog server .Log level:
 None: never send syslog message to syslog server, and Max Age

parameters of the root bridge, regardless of how it is configured.

 Major: only send major syslog to syslog server, e.g.: link up/down, system

warm/cold start.
 All: send all syslog messages to syslog server.
Then click Apply button to activate the syslog function. The following example
figure shows the syslog server application (e.g. Tftpd32.exe) got the messages
from switch which link status is changed on port13.

3.2.2.7. Firmware Update

This system supports firmware update through two different ways: TFTP and
HTTP.

TFTP Update

Use this page to assign a TFTP server IP address and an existing firmware

-20-

image file. Then press Apply button to start the firmware update process. The
firmware image will first update to the RAM area in system. Hit the Update
Firmware button to confirm to write to the system’s flash memory. When the
whole process is completed, system needs to be rebooted by pressing the
reboot button to activate the new firmware.

HTTP Update

An alternative for firmware updating is using HTTP transfer. Just like the file
copy in Windows, select the valid firmware image file to be uploaded to the
switch and hit Submit to start the updating process. This is easier than ordinary
TFTP file transfer. When the firmware image is completely uploaded, system
will automatically be rebooted.

3.2.2.8. Configuration Backup

Just like the firmware update, this system also supports configuration
backup/restore through either TFTP or HTTP transfer.

TFTP Restore Configuration

Use this page to assign a TFTP server IP address and an existing
configuration filename to be restored. Then press Apply button to start the
restore process.

-21-

TFTP Backup Configuration

Use this page to assign a TFTP server IP address and a filename to be stored.
Then press Apply button to start the backup process.

HTTP Restore Configuration

Press “browse” button to select the destination file, then press “submit” button
to restore your configuration.

HTTP Backup Configuration

Press “Click here to download configuration file” to download current
configuration

3.2.3. L2 Features

This switch provides the following L2 features:

 VLAN Configuration
 Trunking (Port Aggregation)
 Forwarding & Filtering Spanning Tree (STP)
 IGMP Snooping
 Spanning Tree
 DHCP Relay & Option 82
 LLDP (optional)

3.2.3.1. VLAN Configuration

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast
domain. It allows you to isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN
receive traffic from the same VLAN members. 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 plug into the
same switch physically. This switch supports port-based, 802.1Q
(tagged-based) or no VLAN in web management page. In default, 802.1Q
VLAN is enabled for common and advanced operations. In VLAN configuration,
there are three categories to configure:

 Static VLAN
 GVRP VLAN
 QinQ VLAN

Static VLAN

Port Based VLAN
When create a port based VLAN the traffic is forwarded to the member ports of
the same VLAN group. To create a port-based VLAN you can do as follows:
 From the main menu, click Configure VLAN, and then click port-based

VLAN.

 Click Add.
 Type a name for the new VLAN.
 Type a Group ID (between1-4094).
 From the Available ports box, select ports to add to the switch

and click Add.
 Click Apply.

-23-

802.1Q VLAN

In this page, user can create 802.1Q (tag-based) VLAN. There are up to 512
VLAN groups to provide configuration. While VLAN Operation Mode is
changed to 802.1Q VLAN, all ports on the switch belong to default VLAN group
which VID is 1. The default VLAN group can’t be deleted. Use 802.1Q to set
the outgoing frames is VLAN-Tagged frames or not.

Tag: outgoing frames with VLAN-Tagged.
Untag: outgoing frames without VLAN-Tagged.

-24-

VLAN Filters
Port NO.: Port number(s) to be assigned to see or configure the settings.
Port VID (PVID): Port VLAN ID will be assigned to untagged traffic on a given

port. This feature is useful for accommodating devices that you want to
participate in the VLAN but that don’t support tagging. This switch allows user
to set one PVID for each port, the range is 1~4094, default PVID is 1. The
PVID must as same as the VLAN ID that the port belong to VLAN group, or the
untagged traffic will be dropped.
Ingress Filtering: Ingress filtering lets frames belonging to a specific VLAN to
be forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. This switch has two ingress
filtering rule as follows:

Ingress Filtering Rule 1: A forward only packet with VID matching this

port’s configured VID.

Ingress Filtering Rule 2: Drop Untagged Frame.

GVRP VLAN

GVRP Setting

GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol or Generic 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. GVRP allows automatic VLAN configuration between the
switch and nodes. If the switch is connected to a device with GVRP enabled,
you can send a GVRP request using the VID of a VLAN defined on the switch,
the switch will automatically add that device to the existing VLAN GVRP can
be enabled per port basis. To enable GVRP function for a port, both global
GVRP and special port GVRP are required to configure.

GVRP Table
In GVRP table the VLAN group(s) dynamically created by GVRP can be
displayed with VID and port member(s).

QinQ VLAN

QinQ Port Setting
Business customers of service providers often have specific requirements for
VLAN IDs and the number of VLANs to be supported. The VLAN ranges
required by different customers in the same service-provider network might
overlap, and traffic of customers through the infrastructure might be mixed.
Assigning a unique range of VLAN IDs to each customer would restrict
customer configurations and could easily exceed the VLAN limit (4096) of the
IEEE 802.1Q specification. Using the QinQ feature, service providers can use
a single VLAN to support customers who have multiple VLANs. Customer
VLAN IDs are preserved, and traffic from different customers is segregated
within the service-provider network, even when they appear to be in the same

-26-

VLAN. Using QinQ expands VLAN space by using a VLAN-in-VLAN hierarchy
and retagging the tagged packets. A port configured to support QinQ is called
a QinQ user-port. A port configured to support QinQ Uplink is called
a QinQ uplink-port. To enable QinQ function, the global QinQ option, QinQ
Tpid and specified port-based QinQ User or Uplink port option need to be
configured.

QinQ Tunnel Setting
Virtual private networks (VPNs) provide enterprise-scale connectivity on a
shared infrastructure, often Ethernet-based, with the same security,
prioritization, reliability, and manageability requirements of private networks.
QinQ tunnel is a feature designed for service providers who carry traffic of
multiple customers across their networks and are required to maintain the
VLAN and Layer 2 protocol configurations of each customer without impacting
the traffic of other customers. When you configure QinQ tunnel, you assign the
QinQ user-port and uplink-port to a VLAN ID that is dedicated to QinQ tunnel.
To add QinQ tunnel, you first select QinQ Tunnel ID, then fill VLAN ID QinQ
dedicated to QinQ tunnel, and select user-port and uplink-port to be added to
QinQ tunnel.

-27-

Note: Only the ports (user port, uplink port) not belong to any VLAN can be
added to the same tunnel

Following figure is an example of QinQ VLAN application

Refer to the figure of QinQ application in previous page, a QinQ tunnel using
VLAN100 wants to be created for Sales VLAN10 across the public network.
Port1 on left-side switch connects to Sales VLAN100 client. Port2 of switch
connects to the public network. The following commands needs to be set:

qinq enable
qinq tpid 8100
qinq userport enable 1

3.2.3.2. Trunking

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. In conclusion, Link aggregation lets you group up to eight
consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection. 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.
System Priority: A value 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 up to 7 trunk groups can be configured. Choose the
"Group ID" and click << Get to retrieve the trunk group.
LACP: If enabled, the group is LACP static trunk group. If disabled, the group
is local static trunk group. All ports support LACP dynamic trunk group. If
connecting to the device that also supports LACP, the LACP dynamic trunk
group will be created automatically.
Work ports: Allow max eight ports can be aggregated at the same time. If
LACP static trunk group, the exceed ports is standby and able to aggregate if
work ports fail. If local static trunk group, the number must be as same as the
group member ports. Select the ports to join the trunk group. Allow max 8 ports
can be aggregated at the same time. If LACP enabled, you can configure
LACP Active/Passive status in each port on State Activity page.

-29-

In aggregator information: The static LACP static trunk group will be displayed
as follows:

In State Activity:
Active (select): The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.
N/A (no select): The port does not automatically sends LACP protocol

packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the
opposite device.

1. A link that has either two active LACP ports or one active port can
perform dynamic LACP trunking. A link has two N/A LACP ports will not
perform dynamic LACP trunking because both ports are waiting for and
LACP protocol packet from the opposite device.

2. If you are active LACP’s actor, when you select trunking port, the active
status will be created automatically.

3.2.3.3 Forwarding and Filtering

In this submenu, the following functions related to forwarding and filtering are
provided:

-30-

 Dynamic MAC Table
 Static MAC Table
 MAC Filtering

Dynamic MAC Table

The switch will dynamically learn the device’s MAC address when it
corresponding with the switch. MAC address will be stored in MAC address
table. Dynamic MAC Table shows the MAC addresses learned by the switch.
The table will be shown by pages if larger than 500 MAC Addresses. You can
set the age-out time of Dynamic MAC table in switch setting:

 Click Clear to clear Dynamic MAC address table.
 Click Top to show the first page of MAC address table.
 Click Prev to show the previous page of MAC address table. If there is

nothing to shown or NO is 1, it is the first page.

 Click Next to show the next page of MAC address table. If there is nothing

to shown, it is the end page.

Static MAC Table

When you add a static MAC address, it permanently remains in the switch's
address table, regardless of whether the device is physically connected to the
switch. This saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's MAC address
when the disconnected or powered-off device is active on the network again.
This table can associate with the Security field in Port Controls configuration to
achieve the access control by source MAC / port / VID binding. That is only
ingress traffic with matched lookup (with specified MAC address, port number
and VID) in this table can be allowed to access to the switch.
The following parameters can be associated to setup the Static MAC table:

MAC Address: Static MAC address in a MAC entry

-31-

Port number: Switch port number to associate with the MAC address in a
MAC entry

VLAN ID: If tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLANs are enabled, static MAC address
can be associated with individual VLANs. Type the VID in this field to associate
with the MAC address.

Click Add to add a new entry. Click Delete to remove a specified entry.
The MAC entries in this table can be sorted by clicking the column NO / MAC /
PORT / VID / TYPE.

MAC Filtering

MAC address filtering allows the switch to drop unwanted traffic. Traffic is
filtered based on the destination MAC addresses.

MAC Address:

MAC address that wants to be filtered.

VLAN ID: If tag-based (802.1Q) VLAN are enabled, type the VID in this field to
associate with the MAC address.

Click Add to add a new entry. Click Delete to remove a specified entry.
The MAC entries in this table can be sorted by clicking the column NO / MAC /
PORT / VID / TYPE.

3.2.3.4 IGMP Snooping

This switch supports multicast IP, one can enable IGMP protocol on web
management’s switch setting advanced page, then display the IGMP snooping
information in this page, you can view difference multicast group, VID and
member port in here, IP multicast addresses range from 224.0.0.0 through

239.255.255.255. 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 and report packets and manage IP
multicast traffic through the switch. IGMP have three fundamental types of
message as follows:

Message

Description

A message sent from the queries (IGMP router or switch)

Query

asking for a response from each host belonging multicast
group.
A message sent by a host to the queries to indicate that the

Report

host wants to be or is a member of a given group indicated
in the report message.

Leave
Group

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

-33-

IGMP protocol: Enable/disable IGMP snooping.

IGMP fast leave: Enable/disable IGMP snooping fast leave. If enable, switch

will fast delete member who send leave report, else wait one second.

IGMP Querier: Enable/disable IGMP snooping querier. If select disable, the
switch can’t send query report.

3.2.3.5 Spanning Tree

STP provides tree topology for any arrangement of bridges and it also provides
a unique path between end stations on a network. In this way, it eliminates
loops.
Loops occur when alternate routes exist between hosts. Loops in an extended
network can cause bridges to forward traffic indefinitely, resulting in increased
traffic and reduced network efficiency. The device supports the following
Spanning two Protocol versions:

 STP: Provides a single path between end stations, avoiding and

eliminating loops.

 Multiple STP (MSTP)
Provides full connectivity for packets allocated to any VLAN. MSTP is based
on RSTP. In addition, MSTP transmits packets assigned to various VLANs
through different MST regions. MST regions act as a single bridge.
In STP, when the system detects L2 loops, it attempts to mitigate them by
preventing the involved port from transmitting traffic. Since loops exist on a
per-L2-domain basis, a problematic situation may occur wherethere is a loop in
VLAN A and no loop in VLAN B. If both VLANs are on Port X, and regular STP
wants to mitigate the loop, it stops traffic on the entire port, even for VLAN B
traffic, where there is no need. Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) solves
this problem by enabling several STP instances, so that it is possible to
detect/mitigate loops separately in each instance. By associating instances to

-34-

VLANs, each instance is associated with the L2 domain on which it performs
loop detection/mitigation. This enables a port to be stopped in one instance (for
example, in the above example, traffic from VLAN A) while traffic can remain
active in another domain where no loop was seen (in VLAN B in the above
example).

Instance

The VLAN to MST Instance Page enables mapping each VLAN to a Multiple
Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI). For devices to be in the same region they
must have the same mapping of VLANs to MSTIs. Note that the same MSTI
can be mapped to more than one VLAN, but each VLAN can only have one
MST Instance attached to it. Configuration on this page (and all of the MSTP
pages) applies if the system STP mode is MSTP.

3.2.3.6 DHCP Relay and Option 82

The Relay Agent Information option (Option82) is inserted by the DHCP relay
agent when forwarding client-originated DHCP packets to a DHCP server
(RFC 3046). Servers recognizing the Relay Agent Information option may use
the information to implement IP address or other parameter assignment
policies. The DHCP Relay can forward the DHCP broadcast packets to a
DHCP server in a different subnet (RFC 1542). So DHCP server can provide
IP addresses to clients spanning multiple subnets instead of deploying a
DHCP server on every subnet.

3.2.3.7 LLDP

LLDP Configuration

Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) operates on data link layer. It stores and
maintains the information about the local device and the devices directly
connected to it for network administrators to manage networks through NMS
(network management systems).In LLDP, device information is encapsulated
in LLDP PDUs in the form of TLV (meaning type, length, and value) triplets and

-39-

is exchanged between directly connected devices. Information in LLDP PDUs
received is restored in its MIB. A LLDP-enabled device operating in the TxRx
mode or Tx mode sends LLDP PDUs to its directly connected devices
periodically. It also sends LLDP PDUs when the local configuration changes to
inform the neighboring devices of the change timely. In any of the two cases,
an interval exists between two successive operations of sending LLDP PDUs.
This prevents the network from being overwhelmed by LLDP PDUs even if the
LLDP operating mode changes frequently. To enable the neighboring devices
to be informed of the existence of a device or an LLDP operating mode change
(from the disable mode to TxRx mode, or from the Rx mode to Tx mode) timely,
a device can invoke the fast sending mechanism. In this case, the interval to
send LLDP PDUs changes to one second. After the device sends specific
number of LLDP PDUs, the interval restores to the normal. An LLDP-enabled
device operating in the TxRx mode or Rx mode validates the TLVs carried in
the LLDP PDUs which receive and store the valid neighboring information. An
LLDP PDU also carries a TTL (time to live) setting with it. The information
about a neighboring device maintained locally ages out when the
corresponding TTL expires.

LLDP Status: Enable/Disable LLDP.

LLDP hello time: LLDP hello time value which is time interval between the

transmission LLDP info packets. Value range is from 5 to 32768. Default value
is 30.

LLDP hold time: LLDP hold time value. Value range is from 2 to 10. Default
value is 4.

Click Apply to activate the setting.

3.2.5.2. MAC Limit

MAC limit allows users to set a maximum number of MAC addresses to be
stored in the MAC address table. The MAC addresses chosen to be stored in
MAC address table is the result of first-come-first-save policy. Once a MAC
address is stored in the MAC address table, it stays in until it is aged out.
When an “opening” is available, the switch stored the first new MAC address it
sees in that opening. All packets from MAC addresses not in the MAC address
table should be blocked.

MAC Limit: You can enable or disable MAC limit function for all ports.
Limit: The maximum number of per-port MAC addressees to be learned (1-64,

0 to disable this port's MAC limit function).

3.2.5.3. 802.1x Configuration

802.1x makes use of the physical access characteristics of IEEE 802 LAN
infrastructures in order to provide a means of authenticating and authorizing
devices attached to a LAN port that has point-to-point connection
characteristics, and of preventing access to that port in cases in which the
authentication and authorization process fails. In the beginning, 802.1 x
configuration page is disabled because 802.1x is disabled in default. To enable

802.1x, go to Administration-> Switch setting ->Misc Configs page to enable
the 802.1x protocol field. After clicked Apply, the 802.1x configuration page will
be shown up.

3.2.5.3.1 System Configuration

Radius Server IP: The IP address of the authentication server.
Server Port: The UDP port number used by the authentication server to

authenticate (default: 1812).
Accounting Port: The UDP port number used by the authentication server to
retrieve accounting information (default: 1813).

Shared Key: A key shared between this switch and authentication server.
NAS, Identifier: A string used to identify this switch.

3.2.5.3.2 Perport Configuration

You can select the specific port and configure the authorization state. There
are 4 kinds of authorization state to provide for each port.

Fu: Force the specific port to be unauthorized.
Fa: Force the specific port to be authorized.
Au: The state of the specific port was determined by the outcome of the

authentication.
No: The specific port didn't support 802.1x function.

-47-

3.2.5.3.3 Misc Configuration

In this page, you can change the default configuration for the 802.1x standard:
Quiet Period: Used to define periods of time during which it will not attempt to
acquire a supplicant (default time: 60 seconds).
Tx Period: Used to determine when an EAPOL PDU is to be transmitted
(Default value is 30 seconds).
Supplicant Timeout: Used to determine timeout conditions in the exchanges
between the supplicant and authentication server (default value: 30 seconds).
Server Timeout: Used to determine timeout conditions in the exchanges
between the authenticator and authentication server (default value: 30
seconds).
Max requests: Used to determine the number of re-authentication attempts
that are permitted before the specific port becomes unauthorized (default
value: 2 times).
Reauth Period: Used to determine a nonzero number of seconds between
periodic re-authentication of the supplications (default value: 3600 seconds).

3.2.6. QoS

This switch provides quality of service (QoS) to prioritize the packet forwarding
when traffic congestion happens. This switch supports port-based (4-level
output queue) and 802.1p (8-level priority to 4-level queue mapping)QoS
functions. Strict and weight round robin (WRR) QoS mode are supported.

3.2.6.1. QoS Configuration

This page is mainly to set the QoS mode (First Come First Service, All High
before Low, and WRR) and 8-level priority to 4 –level queue mapping.
First Come First Service: The sequence of packets sent is depending on
arrive orders. This mode can be regarded as QoS is disabled.
All High before Low: The high priority packets sent before low priority
packets.
WRR: Weighted Round Robin. Select the preference given to packets in the
switch's high-priority queue. These options represent the number of higher
priority packets sent before one lower priority packet is sent. For example, 8
Highest：4 second-high means that the switch sends 8 highest-priority packets
before sending 4 second-high priority packets.
QoS Priority: 8-level (0~7) priority can be mapped to 4-level (Highest,
Second-High, Second-Low, Lowest) queue.

3.2.8. Profile configuration

VDSL2 Profile

ITU-T G.993.2 VDSL2 standard defines a wide range of settings for various
parameters that could potentially be supported by a VDSL2 transceiver.
Profiles are specified to allow transceivers to support a subset of the allowed
settings and still be compliant with this Recommendation. Multiple profiles
allow vendors to limit the complexities of the implementations and develop
implementations that target specific service requirements.
The standard defines 8 VDSL2 profiles (8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, 12a, 12b, 17a, and
30a). VDSL2 transceivers compliant with G.993.2 shall comply with at least
one profile.
Each profile specifies normative values for the following parameters

·

The maximum aggregate transmit power in the downstream and upstream

directions;

·

The minimum aggregate transmit power in the downstream and upstream

directions;

·

The sub-carrier spacing;

·

Whether support of upstream band zero (US0) is required;

·

The minimum bidirectional net data rate capability (MBDC);
In addition to complying with at least one profile, VDSL2 transceivers shall
comply with at least one annex (Annexes A, B and C) specifying spectral
characteristics. Table 2 shows the 8 profiles and Annexes A, B, C.

4.1. Cable specifications

The related cables specification shown in the following table

Cable Type Cable Requirements Maximum Length

1000BASE-T Category 5e or better, UTP or STP 328 ft (100M)

RJ11 6P4C (six position, four conductor),

Twisted-pair cabling comes in various grades, or categories. Category 5 is
required for Fast Ethernet, and is also the most reliable and most commonly
used category. You can buy UTP Category 5 (Unshielded Twisted Pair)
Ethernet cabling in precrimped lengths, or you can crimp your own. Crimping
your own can result in faulty connections if the
RJ-45 tips are not attached properly. Precrimped Category 5 cabling is
available at most computer retail stores.

The most reliable and commonly used type of Category 5 cabling used is UTP,
or "unshielded twisted pair." STP or "shielded twisted pair" wiring is only
necessary for network environments exposed to excessive amounts of
electromagnetic interference, or EMI. These environments include areas with
high sources of electrical power, air conditioning, generators, and radio signals.
STP is also used for wiring outdoors.

There are two types of the wiring: Straight-Through Cables and Crossover
Cables. Category 5 UTP/STP cable has eight wires inside the sheath. The
wires form four pairs. Straight-Through Cables has same pin outs at both ends
while Crossover Cables has a different pin arrangement at each end.

In a straight-through cable, wires 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and 8 at one end of the cable
are still wires 1~8 at the other end. In a crossover cable, the wires of 1,2,3,6
are reversed so that wire 1 become 3 at the other end of the cable, 2 becomes
6, and so forth.

To determine which wire is wire 1, hold the RJ-45 cable tip with the spring clip
facing towards the ground and the end pointing away from you. The copper
wires exposed upwards to your view. The first wire on the far left is wire 1. You
can also refer to the illustrations and charts of the internal wiring on the
following page.

There are two types of cables: Straight Through Cables and Crossover Cables.
Category 5 UTP/STP cable has eight wires inside the sheath. The wires form
four pairs. Straight Through Cables has same pin outs at both ends while
Crossover Cables has a different pin arrangement at each end.
