2.1VS-1200-S Series Summary
The configurable VERSAstream Data Access Switch can combine data from multiple Ethernet
network segments into one data stream. A single Gigabit device/tool, such as an intrusion detection
system, protocol analyzer, or network probe can receive the aggregated data with just one network
interface card (NIC).
Overview11
The configurable product can also have additional input/output ports or Any-to-Any ports, so
multiple Gigabit devices can receive the same data stream. This allows different network tools to
collect data from the same network segments at the same time, eliminating contention for access to
the network. Also, these ports can be configured as more input ports to include more network
segments for monitoring.
Network administrators no longer need a separate tool for each network segment to achieve
simultaneous 24x7 monitoring of multiple links, nor do they need to "switch" to a different segment to
collect data from it. A VS-1200-S series unit simultaneously collects data from multiple network
segments and aggregates all the data before sending it to the connected network tools, expanding
network visibility and reducing the number of tools needed on the network And, because the VS1200-S series aggregates all the data before sending it to the connected network tool, you can
always view the entire conversation even in asymmetric routing, redundant, and load-balanced
environments.
Aggregation gives a complete view of traffic. Instead of collecting and manually assembling trace or
log files from separate tools on separate network segments, the VS-1200-S lets security and
analysis tools collect the data in a single file. In security applications, events and false positives are
recorded fewer times. In all applications, data can be analyzed faster than ever, increasing uptime
and saving money.
The VERSAstream™ Data Access Switch VS-1200-S series is adaptable; all ports can be
configured to be input or output ports. These switches adapt with your ever-changing network.

Datacom Customer Service Support is available via:
This section provides a illustration and description of the front panel of the VS-1200-S series. An
explanation of each front panel legend follows:
3.2.1Power
Two switching AC adapter power supplies are provided for each configurable unit. Although only
one power supply is required to power the module, use of a second independent power source is
strongly recommended to assure uninterrupted monitoring. Furthermore, connecting the second AC
input power socket to a different external power source circuit than the first AC input power source
eliminates power as a single point of failure. The power barrel sockets are located on the rear.
3.2.2Any-to-Any Ports
Designated as INPUT or OUTPUT by 'Superuser' for use as input or output ports. See Serial and
Management Port - Command Line Interface - Superuser Commands - 'SET PORT MONITOR
(SE PO MO)' section for more information.
27
Ports: 1 to 8 (VS-1210BT/SFP-S or VS-1208BT-S) and Ports: 1 to 4 (VS-1204BT-S):
are RJ45 connectors used for connection to network devices or tools. These jacks have integrated
LEDs that display line status and line speed of each port. See the Any-to-Any RJ-45 LED DisplayCode table for LED display codes.
Ports: 9 to 10 (VS-1210BT/SFP-S) and Ports: 1 to 10 (VS-1210SFP-S): are sockets used with a
small form-factor plug (SFP) module for connection to network devices or tools. They can be
connected through fiber or copper, or a mix of each.
LX-BT/SX-BT - The LEDs located to the right of the SFP connectors are solid green indicating a link
has been detected between the respective Any-to-Any Rx port and network device/tool Tx port or
network segment. The LEDs are flashing green when data is passed.
The MANAGEMENT PORT is an RJ45 socket used for 100 Mbs full-duplex connection with a
straight-through LAN cable via your management LAN to a Remote Management Console which is
a standard PC using any Telnet terminal emulation application.
Link indicates connection. The LED Display Code table deciphers the RJ45 jacks with integrated
LEDs that display line status of the MANAGEMENT PORT.
3.3Rear Panel Description
This section provides a description of the rear panel of the VS-1200-S series.
Hardware17
or
An explanation of each rear panel legend follows:
3.3.1Serial DB9
The SERIAL connector port is a shielded DB9 Female and is cabled to the COM port of any
compatible network tool or PC where HyperTerminal software resides. It is the only port that can
easily connect the Management PC to set the IP address (default 192.168.1.1) for the first time.
3.3.2Power Switch (SFP series)
The front panel POWER 1, POWER 2 LEDs are illuminated green, respectively, when the DC power
switch is depressed ON and DC power is available at both the two rear DC power sockets. Either
POWER 1, POWER 2 LED illuminated red indicates a defective power source and immediate
investigation as to the cause is required to insure redundant power integrity.
3.3.3Rear Label (BT series)
DB9 nomenclature, Serial Number (SN) identifier, Media Access Control (MAC) address
identifier, input power requirements, certification compliance identifiers and various other information
are provided on this rear label.
Serial Number (SN) identifier, Media Access Control (MAC) address identifier, input power
requirements, certification compliance identifiers and various other information are provided on this
rear label.
3.3.5Input Power
Two DC input power sockets are provided on the rear panel. The front panel POWER 1 and 2
LEDs are illuminated green, respectively:
(SFP series) - when the DC POWER switch is depressed ON and DC power is available at
both the two rear DC power sockets; or
(BT series) - when DC power is available at both the two rear DC power sockets.
Either POWER 1 or 2 LED not illuminated when powered, indicates a defective power source and
immediate investigation as to the cause is required to insure redundant power integrity.
Although only one switching AC adapter power supply is required to power the configurable unit,
use of a second independent power source is strongly recommended to assure uninterrupted
monitoring. Furthermore, connecting the second DC input power socket to a different external
power source circuit than the first DC input power source eliminates power as a single point of
failure.
IMPORTANT: Prior to initial configuration of the hardware, it is imperative to review the
entire Initial Configuration section before proceeding to the Installation section.
This section explains the considerations and requirements for the initial configuration of the VS1200-S series by a Command Line Interface (CLI) with a management PC using a terminal
emulation application connected either through the SERIAL DB9 port or though the MANAGEMENT
RJ45 port. Only one configuration session can be open at a time.
4.1Command Line Interface (CLI)
The Command Line Interface (CLI ) is used to:
set IP address (default 192.168.1.1), Subnet Mask (default 255.255.255.0) and Gateway
(default 0.0.0.0)
set port speed and duplex
enables the user to select which ports or groups of ports receive the data stream copies
allows Any-to-Any ports to be configured as either inputs or outputs.
Initial Configuration19
The VS-1200-S series factory default is off for all Any-to-Any ports.
4.1.1Basic Functionality
Window Size Functionality: The CLI window is limited to 24 lines per screen and 80 characters
per line. If more data than can fit is presented, a “-more-” prompt is shown on the last line.
Character Handling: Printable character (ASCII code 32-126) and non-printable noted below:
Non-Printable CharacterDescription
<enter key>Executes command; places command in history buffer
<backspace key>Erases previous character entry; removes history buffer entry
Connectivity/Authentication Functionality: Connectivity to the configurable product is made
through the Management RJ45 or Serial DB9 port and authentication is required. This password
protection yields read-only access. To make configuration changes, Superuser (SU) mode must be
accessed with another password. See the 'Superuser Commands' section for more information.
Base Prompt: This is the text presented to the user logging in to use the CLI (default values
shown). All Usernames and passwords are case-sensitive.
Enter Username: Administrator
Enter Password: admin
>
Password Recovery is provided for cases where a user has forgotten the Superuser and/or
Administrator login password. Password recovery is accomplished by connecting to the unit serially
using a HyperTerminal like program and rebooting the unit. As the power-up sequence is occurring,
depress <Control> <C>. Upon receipt of this command, a text recovery key will be generated and
displayed prior to the prompt. This key is used to reset the passwords. An example recovery key
prompt is: 617A6185774$
You must call Datacom Service Center with this recovery key in order to obtain the required
response to reset passwords. Given a valid reset response, the factory default passwords will be
saved in Non-Volatile memory. If an invalid response is given, a new recovery key will be calculated
and displayed at the prompt, as described above, after first clearing the screen.

#
4.1.4.10 SET PORT GROUP (SE PO GR)
Initial Configuration27
This command is used to create a port list under a common name for ease of use. When displayed,
the common name is all caps, regardless of case entry. As part of this command, there is a command
separator (CONTAINS) or, if the OFF parameter (delete the group) is used, the CONTAINS is
not used. A maximum of 10 groups is allowed.
Groups, as designated by the administrator (Superuser,) belong to the same logical group.
Specifically, groups can be configured as if they were a single logical port, enabling a high degree of
control during both the initial setup and all subsequent moves or changes as shown:
SET PORT GROUP (SE PO GR) group name [OFF] or [CONTAINS] port list
Example:
# SE PO GR DatacomPorts CONTAINS 4,5,6
# SE PO GR DatacomPorts OFF
#
4.1.4.11 SET PORT MONITOR (SE PO MO)
This command sets the data routing by selecting the port (output) on which the monitoring device is
to be located as well as ports (input TAPS, SPAN) to be redirected to that monitor port. As part of
this command, there is a command separator (FROM) or, if the OFF parameter (turn off all data
routing to the selected port) is used, the FROM is not used as shown:
SET PORT MONITOR (SE PO MO) comma separated list of port numbers, port names or group
names [OFF] or [FROM comma separated list of port numbers, port names or group names]
Example:
# SE PO MO Port1 FROM Engineering
# SE PO MO 4 FROM 3,2,PortNine
