2. Installation
This chapter describes how to install and connect your Comtrend Switch. Read the
following topics and perform the procedures in the correct order. Incorrect installation
may cause damage to the product.
All models are designed for desktop use, however, the GS-7608 is available with a
rackmount kit.
2.1. Placement Tips
•
Ambient Temperature—To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it
in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 122°F (50°C).
•
Air Flow—Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the switch.
•
Mechanical Loading—Be sure that the switch is level and stable to avoid any
hazardous conditions.
•
Circuit Overloading—Adding the switch to the power outlet must not overload
that circuit.
2.2. Desktop Installation
To place the switch on a desktop:
1. Install the four rubber feet (included) on the bottom of the switch.
2. Place the switch on a flat surface.
Figure 11 - Desktop Installation
Installation
9
2.3. Rackmount Installation
Only the following device is designed for a rack mount installation: GS-6708.
You can mount the switch in any standard size, 19-inch (about 48 cm) wide rack. The
switch requires 1 rack unit (RU) of space, which is 1.75 inches (44.45 mm) high.
To place the switch on a standard rack (1 rack unit high):
For stability, load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest
devices on the bottom. A top-heavy rack is likely to be unstable and may tip
over.
When mounting smaller switch products into a standard 19-inch rack, a pair
of extension brackets (sometimes referred to as ears) are needed to adapt
the switch to the rack size.
These extension brackets are mounted on the switch using the screws
provided in the kit, and have two holes that are used to then screw the
switch into the rack.
An example of one type of these extension brackets is shown in the following
figure.
A common problem that occurs during rack mounting is the distance between
the screw holes on the rack. Some racks are made with a uniform distance
between all of the holes, and others have the holes organized into groups
(see photo on the next page for an example).
When organized into groups, the switch must be placed in the rack so that
the holes in the extension brackets line up correctly.
1. Align the mounting brackets with the mounting holes on the switch’s side panels
and secure the brackets with the screws provided.

3. Getting Started
This section provides an introduction to the web-based configuration utility, and
covers the following topics:
•
Powering on the device
•
Connecting to the network
•
Power over Ethernet (PoE) considerations
•
Starting the web-based configuration utility
3.1. Power
3.1.1. Installing Power
Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring a
switch.
Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched off.
The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not use
any other power components except those specifically designated for the
switch.
Disconnect the power cord before installation or cable wiring.
The Gigabit Ethernet Smart-Lite switches are available with different power options
from an internal (72W) PSU to an external (150W) option and power adapters (5V
DC/1A). It is recommended to connect the switch with a single-phase three-wire
power source with a neutral outlet, or a multifunctional computer professional source.
Connect the AC power connector on the back panel of the switch to the external
power source with the included power cord, and check the power LED is on. The
following figure illustrates the power socket location on the rear side of a GS-7608
switch. See “1.4.1. Switch Views” on page 3 for power socket location on your
model.

3.1.2. Connecting to the Network
To connect your switch to the network:
1. Connect an Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port of a computer, printer, network
storage, or other network devices.
2. Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable to one of the numbered Ethernet
ports of the switch. The LED of the port lights if the device connected is active.
3. Repeat Step 1 and Step 2 for each device that you want to connect to the switch.
We strongly recommend using CAT-5E or better cable to connect network
devices. When you connect your network devices, do not exceed the
maximum cabling distance of 100 meters (328 feet). It can take up to
one minute for attached devices or the LAN to be operational after it is
connected. This is normal behavior.
Switch ports will automatically adjust to the characteristics (MDI/MDI-X, speed,
duplex) of the device to which the switch is connected.
Figure 15 - PC Connect
3.1.3. Power over Ethernet (PoE) Considerations
For PoE switch models, consider the following information:
Devices considered a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE), can deliver a maximum of 30
Watts per PoE port.

When connecting switches capable of supplying PoE, consider the following
information:
•
Switch models with PoE function are PSEs. These models are capable of
supplying DC power to attached PDs, such as VoIP phones, IP cameras,
and wireless access points (APs). PoE switches. Additionally, PoE switches
are capable of detecting and supplying power to pre-standard legacy PoE
Power Devices. Due to the support for legacy PoE, there is a possibility
that PoE switches acting as a PSE may inadvertently detect and supply
power an attached PSE, including other PoE switches. This false detection
may result in a PoE switch operating improperly and unable to supply
power to attached PDs.
•
The prevention of a false detection can be easily remedied by disabling
PoE on the ports that are used to connect PSEs. Another simple practice
to prevent a false detection is to first power up a PSE device before
connecting it to a PoE switch.
•
When a device is falsely detected as a PD, disconnect the device from the
PoE port and power recycle the device with AC power before reconnecting
it to the PoE port.
Getting Started
14
3.2. Starting the Web-based Configuration Utility
This section describes how to navigate the web-based switch configuration utility.
If you are using a pop-up blocker, make sure it is disabled.
3.2.1. Browser Restrictions
•
If you are using older versions of Internet Explorer, you cannot directly use an
IPv6 address to access the device. You can, however, use the DNS (Domain
Name System) server to create a domain name that contains the IPv6 address,
and then use that domain name in the address bar in place of the IPv6 address.
•
If you have multiple IPv6 interfaces on your management station, use the IPv6
global address instead of the IPv6 link local address to access the device from
your browser.
3.2.2. Launching the Configuration Utility
To open the web-based configuration utility:
1. Open a Web browser.
2. Enter the IP address of the device you are configuring in the address bar on the
browser (the factory default IP address is 192.168.169.1) and then press Enter.
When the device is using the factory default IP address of 192.168.169.1,
its power LED flashes continuously. When the device is using a DHCP
assigned IP address or an administrator-configured static IP address, the
power LED is on solid. Your computer’s IP address must be in the same
subnet as the switch. For the default IP address this is any IP address in the
range 192.168.169.x (x = 2 – 254). You can modify the IP address of your
computer if you need.
The login window displays.
Figure 16 - Login Window
Getting Started
15
3.2.3. Logging In
The default username is admin and the default password is admin. The first time that
you log in with the default username and password, you are required to enter a new
password.
To log in to the device configuration utility:
1. Enter the default user ID (admin) and the default password (admin).
2. If this is the first time that you logged on with the default user ID (admin) and
the default password (admin) it is recommended that you change your password
immediately. See “4.2.1. Password” on page 33 for additional information.
When the login attempt is successful, the System Status window displays.
Figure 17 - System Status
If you entered an incorrect username or password, an error message appears and the
Login page remains displayed on the window. If you are having problems logging in,
please see the Launching the Configuration Utility section in the Administration Guide
for additional information.
3.2.4. Logging Out
By default, the application logs out after ten minutes of inactivity.
To logout, click Logout in the top right corner of any page. The system logs out of the
device.
When a timeout occurs or you intentionally log out of the system, a message appears
and the Login page appears, with a message indicating the logged-out state. After
you log in, the application returns to the initial page.

4.1.10. IGMP Snooping
Use this section to create an IGMP Snooping Profile. Internet Group Management
Protocol (IGMP) Snooping is a feature that allows a switch to forward multicast traffic
intelligently on the switch. Multicast IP traffic is traffic that is destined to a host group.
Host groups are identified by class D IP addresses, which range from 224.0.0.0 to
239.255.255.255. Based on the IGMP query and report messages, the switch forwards
traffic only to the ports that request the multicast traffic. This prevents the switch
from broadcasting the traffic to all ports and possibly affecting network performance.
To view the IGMP Snooping menu, navigate to IGMP Snooping.
