2 Gigabit Copper/SFP (Mini-GBIC) combo port:
The Industrial switch has two auto-detected Giga port—UTP/STP/Fiber combo ports.
The Gigabit Copper (10/100/1000T) ports should use Category 5e or above UTP/STP
cable for the connection up to 1000Mbps. The SFP slots supporting dual mode can
switch the connection speed between 100 and 1000Mbps. They are for connecting to
the network segment with single or multi-mode fiber. You can choose the appropriate
mini-GBIC module to plug into the slots. You can use proper multi-mode or single-mode
fiber according to the used SFP module. With fiber optic, it transmits speed up to 1000
Mbps and you can prevent noise interference from the system and transmission distance
up to 110 km, depending on the mini-GBIC module.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communications applications.
Note The SFP/Copper Combo port can be used at one time either. The SFP port
has the higher priority than copper port; if you insert the 1000M SFP transceiver into the SFP port which is connected to the remote device, the connection of the accompanying copper port will link down. If you insert the 100M SFP transceiver into the SFP port even without a fiber connection to the remote, the connection of the accompanying copper port will link down immediately.
12
Cabling
Twisted-pair segment can be established by using unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or
shielded twisted pair (STP) cabling. The cable between the link partner (switch, hub,
workstation, etc.) and the converter must be less than 100 meters (328 ft.) long and
comply with the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard for Category 5e or above.
Fiber segment using single-mode connector type must use 9/125μm single-mode fiber
cable. You can connect two devices in the distance of 10 km. Fiber segment using multi-
mode connector type must use 50/125 or 62.5/125μm multi-mode fiber cable. You can
connect two devices up to 550m distances.
The small form-factor pluggable (SFP) is a compact optical transceiver used in optical
communications for both telecommunication and data communication applications.
To connect the transceiver and LC cable, please follow the steps shown below:
First, insert the transceiver into the SFP module. Notice that the triangle mark is the
bottom of the module.

Network Application
This chapter provides some sample applications to help user to have more actual idea of
industrial switch function application. A sample application of the industrial switch is
shown as below:
23
X-Ring Application
The industrial switch supports the X-Ring protocol that can help the network system to
recover from network connection failure within 300ms or less, and make the network
system more reliable. The X-Ring algorithm is similar to Spanning Tree Protocol (STP)
and Rapid STP (RSTP) algorithm but its recovery time is less than STP/RSTP. The
figure below is a sample of X-Ring application.
24
Coupling Ring Application
In the network, it may have more than one X-Ring group. Using the coupling ring
function can connect each X-Ring for the redundant backup. It can ensure the
transmissions between two ring groups not to fail. The following figure is a sample of
coupling ring application.
25
Dual Homing Application
Dual Homing function is to prevent the connection loss from between X-Ring group and
upper level/core switch. Assign two ports to be the Dual Homing port that is backup port
in the X-Ring group. The Dual Homing function only works when the X-Ring function is
active. Each X-Ring group only has one Dual Homing port.
[NOTE] In Dual Homing application architecture, the upper level switches need to
enable the Rapid Spanning Tree protocol.
26
Central Ring Application
Central ring is the advanced function which supports backup connection for transmission
redundant. While the connection fails, the system will recover from failure within 20
milliseconds. Apart from that, Central Ring also can handle up to 4 rings by configuring a
single switch only as the Ring Master switch.
27
Console Management
Connecting to the Console Port
The supplied cable which one end is RS-232 connector and the other end is RJ-45
connector. Attach the end of RS-232 connector to PC or terminal and the other end of
RJ-45 connector to the console port of the switch. The connected terminal or PC must
support the terminal emulation program.

Web-Based Management
This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management.
About Web-based Management
There is an embedded HTML web site residing in flash memory on CPU board of the
switch, which offers advanced management features and allows users to manage the
switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft
Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 6.0 or later version. And, it is
applied for Java Applets for reducing network bandwidth consumption, enhance access
speed and present an easy viewing screen.
Preparing for Web Management
Before using the web management, install the industrial switch on the network and make
sure that any one of the PCs on the network can connect with the industrial switch
through the web browser. The industrial switch default value of IP, subnet mask,
username and password are listed as below:
 IP Address: 192.168.16.1  Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0  Default Gateway: 192.168.16.254  User Name: root  Password: root
56
System Login
1. Launch the Internet Explorer on the PC
2. Key in “http:// “+” the IP address of the switch”, and then Press “Enter”.
3. The login screen will appear right after
4. Key in the user name and password. The default user name and password are the
same as ‘root’
5. Press ‘Enter‘ or click OK button, and then the home screen of the Web-based
management appears.
Note: The web interface features shown below are introduced by the screen displays of 16 10/100 TX + 2 10/100/1000T/Mini-GBIC Combo model. Unless specifically identified, the all of the screen displays are suitable for the models in this manual.

IP Configuration
User can configure the IP Settings and DHCP client function in here.
DHCP Client: Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When DHCP client
function is enabled, the industrial switch will be assigned an IP address from the
network DHCP server. The default IP address will be replaced by the assigned IP
address on DHCP server. After user click Apply button, a popup dialog shows up. It
58
is to inform the user that when the DHCP client is enabled, the current IP will lose
and user should find the new IP on the DHCP server.
IP Address: Assign the IP address that the network is using. If DHCP client function
is enabled, and then the user doesn’t need to assign the IP address. And, the
network DHCP server will assign the IP address displaying in this column for the
industrial switch. The default IP is 192.168.16.1.
Subnet Mask: Assign the subnet mask to the IP address. If DHCP client function is
enabled, and then the user does not need to assign the subnet mask.

IP configuration interface
DHCP Server – System configuration
DHCP is the abbreviation of Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol that is a protocol for
assigning dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing, a
device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the network. In some
systems, the device's IP address can even change while it is still connected. DHCP also
supports a mix of static and dynamic IP addresses. Dynamic addressing simplifies
59
network administration because the software keeps track of IP addresses rather than
requiring an administrator to manage the task. This means that a new computer can be
added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a unique IP address.
The system provides the DHCP server function. Enable the DHCP server function, the
switch system will be a DHCP server.
DHCP Server: Enable or Disable the DHCP Server function. Enable—the switch
will be the DHCP server on your local network.
Low IP Address: Type in an IP address. Low IP address is the beginning of the
dynamic IP range. For example, dynamic IP is in the range between 192.168.1.100
~ 192.168.1.200. In contrast, 192.168.1.100 is the Low IP address.
High IP Address: Type in an IP address. High IP address is the end of the dynamic
IP range. For example, dynamic IP is in the range between 192.168.1.100 ~
192.168.1.200. In contrast, 192.168.1.200 is the High IP address.
Subnet Mask: Type in the subnet mask of the IP configuration.  Gateway: Type in the IP address of the gateway in your network.  DNS: Type in the Domain Name Server IP Address in your network.  Lease Time (sec): It is the time period that system will reset the dynamic IP
assignment to ensure the dynamic IP will not been occupied for a long time or the
server doesn’t know that the dynamic IP is idle.
And then, click
Apply

Port Control
In Port control, you can view and set the operation mode of each port.
1. Port: Select the port that you want to configure.
2. State: Current port status. The port can be set to disable or enable mode. If the port
state is set as ‘Disable’, it will not receive or transmit any packet.
3. Negotiation: Auto and Force. Being set as Auto, the speed and duplex mode are
negotiated automatically. When you set it as Force, you have to assign the speed
and duplex mode manually.
4. Speed: It is available for selecting when the Negotiation column is set as Force.
When the Negotiation column is set as Auto, this column is read only.
5. Duplex: It is available for selecting when the Negotiation column is set as Force.
When the Negotiation column is set as Auto, this column is read only.
6. Flow Control: Set flow control function as Enable or Disable. When enabled, once
the device exceed the input data rate of another device as a result the receiving
device will send a PAUSE frame which halts the transmission of the sender for a
75
specified period of time. When disabled, the receiving device will drop the packet if
too much to process.
7. Security: Once the Security selection is set as ‘On’, any access from the device
which connects to this port will be blocked unless the MAC address of the device is
included in the static MAC address table. See the segment of Static MAC Table.
8. Click
Apply
button to make the configuration effective.
Port Control interface
Port Trunk
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for
76
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. Link
aggregation lets you group up to 4 ports into one dedicated connections. 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.
Aggregator setting
1. System Priority: A value which is used to identify the active LACP. The switch with
the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the active LACP.
2.
Group ID:
There are four trunk groups to be selected. Choose the "
Group ID
" and
click
Select
button.
3. LACP: When enabled, the trunk group is using LACP. A port which joins an LACP
trunk group has to make an agreement with its member ports first. When disabled,
the trunk group is a static trunk group. The advantage of having the LACP disabled
is that a port joins the trunk group without any handshaking with its member ports.
But member ports won’t know that they should be aggregated together to form a
logic trunk group.
4. Work ports: This column field allows the user to type in the total number of active
port up to four. With LACP static trunk group, e.g. you assign four ports to be the
members of a trunk group whose work ports column field is set as two; the exceed
ports are standby (the LACP State Activity will show ‘Passive’ on the tab of State Activity) and can be aggregated if work ports fail. If it is a static trunk group, the
number of work ports must equal the total number of group member ports.
5. Select the ports to join the trunk group. The system allows four ports maximum to
be aggregated in a trunk group. Click
Add
button to add the port which is
focused to the left field. To remove unwanted ports, select the port and click
Remove
button.
6. When LACP enabled, you can configure LACP Active/Passive status for each port
on State Activity page.
77
7. Click
Apply
button.
8. Use
Delete
button to delete Trunk Group. Select the Group ID and click
Delete
button.
Port Trunk—Aggregator Setting interface (four ports are added to the left field with LACP enabled)
Aggregator Information
When you have setup the aggregator setting with LACP disabled, you will see the local
static trunk group information in here.
1. Group Key: Displays the trunk group ID.
2. Port Member: Displays the members of this static trunk group.
78

Port Trunk – Aggregator Information interface
State Activity
Having set up the LACP aggregator on the tab of Aggregator Setting, you can configure
the state activity for the members of the LACP trunk group. You can tick or cancel the
checkbox beside the state display. When you remove the tick mark to the port and click
Apply
button, the port state activity will change to
Passive
.
Active: The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.  Passive: The port does not automatically send LACP protocol packets, and
responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.
[NOTE]
1. A link having either two active LACP nodes or one active node can
perform dynamic LACP trunk.
2. A link having two passive LACP nodes will not perform dynamic
LACP trunk because both ports are waiting for an LACP protocol
packet from the opposite device.
79
Port Trunk – State Activity interface
Port Mirroring
The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. Traffic through
ports can be monitored by one specific port which means traffic goes in or out monitored
(source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port.
80
Port Trunk – Port Mirroring interface
Destination Port: There is only one port can be selected to be the destination
(mirroring) port for monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from the source
port. Or, use one of two ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX
traffic only. The user can connect the mirroring port to LAN analyzer or Netxray.
Source Port: The ports that the user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will
be copied to mirroring (destination) port. The user can select multiple source ports
by ticking the RX or TX checkboxes to be monitored.
And then, click
Apply
button.
81
Rate Limiting
You can set up every port’s frame limitation type and bandwidth rate.
Rate Limiting interface
Ingress Limit Frame type: Select the frame type you want to filter. The frame types
have 4 options for selecting: All, Broadcast/Multicast/Flooded Unicast, Broadcast/Multicast, and Broadcast only.
The four frame type options are for ingress frames limitation. The egress rate only
supports ‘All’ type.
All the ports support port ingress and egress rate control. For example, assume port
82
1 is 10Mbps; the user can set the effective egress rate of port 1 as 1Mbps, ingress
rate 500Kbps. The switch performs the ingress rate by packet counter to meet the
specified rate.
¾ Ingress: Enter the port effective ingress rate (The default value is “0”). ¾ Egress: Enter the port effective egress rate (The default value is “0”).
And then, click
Apply
to make the settings taken effect.
83
VLAN configuration
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain,
which would allow you to isolate network traffic, so only the members of the same VLAN
will receive traffic from the ones of the same VLAN. 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 plugged into the same switch
physically.
The switch supports Port-based and 802.1Q (tagged-based) VLAN. The default configuration of VLAN operation mode is “Disable”.
VLAN Configuration interface
VLAN configuration - Port-based VLAN
Packets can go among only members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected
ports are treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled,
the VLAN-tagging is ignored.
In order for an end station to send packets to different VLAN groups, it itself has to be
either capable of tagging packets it sends with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware
bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with different VLAN ID based
84
on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such as the
protocol.
VLAN – Port Based interface

[NOTE]
Remember to execute the “Save Configuration” action, otherwise the new
configuration will lose when switch power off.
87
802.1Q VLAN
Tagged-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible
to create a VLAN across devices from different switch venders. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN uses
a technique to insert a “tag” into the Ethernet frames. Tag contains a VLAN Identifier
(VID) that indicates the VLAN numbers.
You can create Tag-based VLAN, and enable or disable GVRP protocol. There are 256
VLAN groups to provide configuration. Enable 802.1Q VLAN, all ports on the switch
belong to default VLAN of VID 1. The default VLAN can’t be deleted.
GVRP (GARP 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. This allows network devices to dynamically exchange VLAN configuration
information with other devices.
GVRP is based on GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol), a protocol that
defines procedures by which end stations and switches in a local area network (LAN)
can register and de-register attributes, such as identifiers or addresses, with each other.
Every end station and switch thus has a current record of all the other end stations and
switches that can be reached.
GVRP, like GARP, eliminates unnecessary network traffic by preventing attempts to
transmit information to unregistered users. In addition, it is necessary to manually
configure only one switch and all the other switches will be configured accordingly.
802.1Q Configuration
Pull down the selection item and focus on
802.1Q
then press
Apply
button to set
the VLAN Operation Mode in
802.1Q
mode.
Enable GVRP Protocol: Tick the checkbox to enable GVRP protocol. This
checkbox is available while the VLAN Operation Mode is in 802.1Q mode.
Select the port you want to configure.
Link Type: There are 3 types of link type.
88
¾ Access Link: Single switch only, it allows the user to group ports by assigning
the same Untagged VID. While this link type is set, the Untagged VID column
field is available but the Tagged VID column field is disabled.
¾ Trunk Link: The extended application of Access Link. It allows the user to
group ports by assigning the same Tagged VID across 2 or more switches.
Having set this link type, the Tagged VID column field is available but the
Untagged VID column field is disabled.
¾ Hybrid Link: Both Access Link and Trunk Link are available.
Untagged VID: Assign the untagged frame VID.
Tagged VID:
Assign the tagged frame VID.
Click
Apply
button to have the settings taken effect.
You can see the link type, untagged VID, and tagged VID information of each port in
the table below on the screen.

Rapid Spanning Tree
The Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) is an evolution of the Spanning Tree Protocol
and provides for faster spanning tree convergence after a topology change. The system
also supports STP and the system will auto-detect the connected device that is running
STP or RSTP protocol.
RSTP - System Configuration
The user can view spanning tree information of Root Bridge.
The user can modify RSTP state. After modification, click
Apply
button.
¾ RSTP mode: The user must enable the RSTP function first before configuring
the related parameters.
¾ Priority (0-61440): The switch with the lowest value has the highest priority
and is selected as the root. If the value is changed, the user must reboot the
switch. The value must be a multiple of 4096 according to the protocol standard
rule.
¾ Max Age (6-40): The number of seconds a switch waits without receiving
Spanning-tree Protocol configuration messages before attempting a
reconfiguration. Enter a value between 6 through 40.
¾ Hello Time (1-10): The time that controls the switch to send out the BPDU
packet to check RSTP current status. Enter a value between 1 through 10.
¾ Forward Delay Time (4-30): The number of seconds a port waits before
changing from its Rapid Spanning-Tree Protocol learning and listening states to
the forwarding state. Enter a value between 4 through 30.
[NOTE]
Follow the rule as below to configure the MAX Age, Hello Time, and Forward
Delay Time.
2 x (Forward Delay Time value –1) > = Max Age value >= 2 x (Hello Time value +1)

RSTP - Port Configuration
You can configure path cost and priority of every port.
Select the port in the port column field.
Path Cost: The cost of the path to the other bridge from this transmitting bridge at
the specified port. Enter a number 1 through 200,000,000.
Priority: Decide which port should be blocked by priority in LAN. Enter a number 0
through 240 (the port of the highest value will be blocked). The value of priority must
be the multiple of 16.
Admin P2P: Some of the rapid state transactions that are possible within RSTP are
dependent upon whether the port concerned can only be connected to exactly one
other bridge (i.e. it is served by a point-to-point LAN segment), or can be connected
to two or more bridges (i.e. it is served by a shared medium LAN segment). This
function allows the P2P status of the link to be manipulated administratively. True is
93
P2P enabling. False is P2P disabling.
Admin Edge: The port directly connected to end stations won’t create bridging loop
in the network. To configure the port as an edge port, set the port to “True” status.
Admin Non Stp: The port includes the STP mathematic calculation. True is not
including STP mathematic calculation. False is including the STP mathematic
calculation.
