It recommends using IFS SFPs on the Managed
Switch. If you insert a SFP
transceiver that is not supported, the Managed
Switch will not recognize
it.
Before connect the other Managed Switches, workstation or Media Converter.
1. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example:
1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX, 1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.
2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transceiver model. To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transceiver, use the Multi-mode fiber cable- with one side
must be male duplex LC connector type.
To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver, use the Single-mode fiber cable-with one side
must be male duplex LC connector type.
Connect the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a
workstation or a Media Converter...
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot on the front of the Managed Switch. Ensure that the SFP
transceiver is operating correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link failed. Co works with some fiber-NICs or Media
Converters, set the Link mode to “1000 Force” or “100 Force” is needed.
Remove the transceiver module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consult or check with the network administrator. Or
through the management interface of the switch/converter (if available) to disable the port in
advance.
2. Remove the Fiber Optic Cable gently.
3. Turn the handle of the SFP module to horizontal.
4. Pull out the module gently through the handle.

3.2 Management Access Overview
The Managed Switch gives you the flexibility to access and manage it using any or all of the
following methods:
An administration console Web browser interface An external SNMP-based network management application
The administration console and Web browser interface support are embedded in the Managed
Switch software and are available for immediate use. Each of these management methods has their
own advantages. Table 3-1 compares the three management methods.

3.3 Administration Console
The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, and command line user interface for
performing system administration such as displaying statistics or changing option settings. Using this
method, you can view the administration console from a terminal, personal computer, Apple
Macintosh, or workstation connected to the switch's console (serial) port.
There are two ways to use this management method: via direct access or modem port access. The
following sections describe these methods. For more information about using the console, refer to
Chapter 5 Command Line Interface Console Management.
Figure 3-1: Console management
Direct Access
Direct access to the administration console is achieved by directly connecting a terminal or a PC
equipped with a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the Managed Switch
console (serial) port.
When using this management method, a straight DB9 RS-232 cable is required to connect the
switch to the PC. After making this connection, configure the terminal-emulation program to use
the following parameters:
The default parameters are:
 115200 bps  8 data bits  No parity  1 stop bit
IFS NS3502-8P-2S User Manual
42
Figure 3-2: Terminal parameter settings
You can change these settings, if desired, after you log on. This management method is often
preferred because you can remain connected and monitor the system during system reboots. Also,
certain error messages are sent to the serial port, regardless of the interface through which the
associated action was initiated. A Macintosh or PC attachment can use any terminal-emulation
program for connecting to the terminal serial port. A workstation attachment under UNIX can use
an emulator such as TIP.
3.4 Web Management
The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Managed Switch
from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
After you set up your IP address for the switch, you can access the Managed Switch's Web interface
applications directly in your Web browser by entering the IP address of the Managed Switch.
Figure 3-3: Web management
IFS NS3502-8P-2S User Manual
43
You can then use your Web browser to list and manage the Managed Switch configuration
parameters from one central location, just as if you were directly connected to the Managed
Switch's console port. Web Management requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0 or later,
Safari or Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later.
Figure 3-4: Web main screen of Managed Switch
3.5 SNMP-Based Network Management
You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Managed Switch,
such as SNMP Network Manager, HP Openview Network Node Management (NNM) or What’s Up
Gold. This management method requires the SNMP agent on the switch and the SNMP Network
Management Station to use the same community string. This management method, in fact, uses
two community strings: the get community string and the set community string. If the SNMP
Net-work management Station only knows the set community string, it can read and write to the
MIBs. However, if it only knows the get community string, it can only read MIBs. The default gets
and sets community strings for the Managed Switch are public.

4. WEB CONFIGURATION
This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management.
About Web-based Management
The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Managed Switch
from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 7.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim
to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing
screen.
By default, IE7.0 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.
The Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager PC
must be set on same the IP subnet address with the Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the IFS Managed Switch is 192.168.0.100, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
If you have changed the default IP address of the Managed Switch to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask
255.255.255.0 via console, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a number
between 2 and 254) to do the relative configuration on manager PC.

not receive any message within the duration, it will think that the
switch no longer exists. Due to the unreliable nature of UDP, in
the standard it is recommended that such refreshing of
advertisements to be done at less than one-half of the
advertising duration. In the implementation, the switch sends
SSDP messages periodically at the interval one-half of the
advertising duration minus 30 seconds. Valid values are in the

The DHCP option 82 enables a DHCP relay agent to insert specific information into a DHCP request
packets when forwarding client DHCP packets to a DHCP server and remove the specific information
from a DHCP reply packets when forwarding server DHCP packets to a DHCP client. The DHCP server
can use this information to implement IP address or other assignment policies. Specifically the option
works by setting two sub-options:
 Circuit ID (option 1)  Remote ID (option2).
IFS NS3502-8P-2S User Manual

The Circuit ID sub-option is supposed to include information specific to which circuit the request came
in on.
The Remote ID sub-option was designed to carry information relating to the remote host end of the
circuit.
The definition of Circuit ID in the switch is 4 bytes in length and the format is "vlan_id" "module_id"
"port_no". The parameter of "vlan_id" is the first two bytes represent the VLAN ID. The parameter of
"module_id" is the third byte for the module ID (in standalone switch it always equal 0, in stackable
switch it means switch ID). The parameter of "port_no" is the fourth byte and it means the port
number.
The Remote ID is 6 bytes in length, and the value is equal the DHCP relay agent’s MAC address. The

4.2.16 EEE Power Reduction
This page allows the user to inspect and configure the current EEE port settings.
EEE is a power saving option that reduces the power usage when there is very low traffic utilization (or
no traffic).
EEE works by powering down circuits when there is no traffic. When a port gets data to be transmitted
all circuits are powered up. The time it takes to power up the circuits is named wakeup time. The
default wakeup time is 17 us for 1Gbit links and 30 us for other link speeds. EEE devices must agree
upon the value of the wakeup time in order to make sure that both the receiving and transmitting
device has all circuits powered up when traffic is transmitted. The devices can exchange information
about the devices wakeup time using the LLDP protocol.
For maximizing the power saving, the circuit isn't started at once transmit data are ready for a port, but
is instead queued until 3000 bytes of data are ready to be transmitted. For not introducing a large
delay in case that data less than 3000 bytes shall be transmitted, data are always transmitted after 48
us, giving a maximum latency of 48 us + the wakeup time.
If desired it is possible to minimize the latency for specific frames, by mapping the frames to a specific
queue (done with QOS), and then mark the queue as an urgent queue. When an urgent queue gets
data to be transmitted, the circuits will be powered up at once and the latency will be reduced to the
wakeup time.

4.3 Simple Network Management Protocol
4.3.1 SNMP Overview
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that facilitates the
exchange of management information between network devices. It is part of the Transmission Control
Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) protocol suite. SNMP enables network administrators to manage
network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth.
An SNMP-managed network consists of three key components: Network management stations (NMSs),
SNMP agents, Management information base (MIB) and network-management protocol
Network management stations (NMSs):Sometimes called consoles, these devices execute
management applications that monitor and control network elements. Physically, NMSs are
usually engineering workstation-caliber computers with fast CPUs, megapixel color displays,
substantial memory, and abundant disk space. At least one NMS must be present in each
managed environment.
Agents: Are software modules that reside in network elements. They collect and store
management information such as the number of error packets received by a network element.
Management information base (MIB) A MIB is a collection of managed objects residing in a
virtual information store. Collections of related managed objects are defined in specific MIB
modules.
network-management protocol:A management protocol is used to convey management
information between agents and NMSs. SNMP is the Internet community's de facto standard
management protocol.
SNMP Operations
SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol. NMSs can send multiple requests without receiving
a response.
Get -- Allows the NMS to retrieve an object instance from the agent.
Set -- Allows the NMS to set values for object instances within an agent.
。 Trap -- Used by the agent to asynchronously inform the NMS of some event. The SNMPv2 trap
message is designed to replace the SNMPv1 trap message.
SNMP community
An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong to. It
helps define where information is sent. The community name is used to identify the group. A SNMP
device or agent may belong to more than one SNMP community. It will not respond to requests from
management stations that do not belong to one of its communities. SNMP default communities are:
。 Write = private
。 Read = public
