Introduction
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) eliminates the need to run VAC power to other devices on
a wired LAN. Using Power-over-Ethernet system installers needs to run only a single Category 5 Ethernet cable that carries both power and data to each device. This allows greater flexibility in the locating of network devices and significantly decreasing installation costs in many cases.
There are two system components in PoEthe Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) initiates the connection to the second component, and the Powered Device (PD). The current is transmitted over two of the four twisted pairs of wires in a Category-5 cable.
Power over Ethernet follows the IEEE 802.3af and is completely compatible with existing Ethernet switches and networked devices. Because the Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) tests whether a networked device is PoE-capable, power is never transmitted unless a Powered Device is at other end of the cable. It also continues to monitor the channel. If the Powered Device does not draw a minimum current, because it has been unplugged or physically turned off, the PSE shuts down the power to that port. Optionally, the standard permits Powered Devices to signal to the PSEs exactly how much power they need.
The 8 10/100TX + 2 10/100/1000T / 100/1000Mini-GBIC Combo with 8 PoE Managed Switch is the multi-port switches that can be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks. Any one of the switch is a store-and-forward device that offers low latency for high-speed networking. It also features a ―store-and-forward ―switching scheme. This allows the switch to auto-learn and store source address in an 8K-entry MAC address table. The switch is targeted at workgroup, department or backbone computing environment.

Desktop Installation
Set the switch on a sufficiently large flat space with a power outlet nearby. The surface
where you put the switch should be clean, smooth, level and sturdy. Make sure there is
enough space around the switch to allow air circulation.
Attaching Rubber Pads
A. Make sure mounting surface on the bottom of the switch is grease and dust free.
B. Remove adhesive backing from your Rubber Pads.
C. Apply the Rubber Pads to each corner on the bottom of the switch. These footpads
can prevent the switch from shock/vibration.
Power On
Connect the DC jack to the power socket on the rear panel of the switch. Connect the
other side of power plug to the power outlet. The power adaptor works with voltage range
of AC in the 100 -240VAC/Frequency of 50~60Hz for 8 10/100TX + 2 10/100/1000T /
100/1000Mini-GBIC Combo with 8 PoE Managed Switch. Check the power indicator on
the front panel to see if power is properly supplied.
15
Network Application
This section provides a few samples of network topology in which the switch is used. In
general, the PoE Managed Switch is designed as a segment switch which has large
address table (8k MAC addresses) and high performance to deal with interconnecting
networking segments.
Using the uplink port (Giga Combo port), the switch can connect with another switch or
hub to interconnect other small-switched workgroups to form a larger switched network.
Besides, the PoE switch also injects power into the UTP cables for supplying the power
that PDs (Power Devices) need.
The Power over Ethernet Switch can provide power to PDs that follow the IEEE 802.3af
standard in the network. It can solve the problem of position limitation. The network
devices can be installed in more appropriate position for better performance. The
following figure is an example of network application for Power over Ethernet Switch.
Small Workgroup
The PoE managed switch can be used as a standalone switch to which personal
computers, server, printer server, are directly connected to form a small workgroup.
Small Workgroup application
16
Segment Bridge
For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly processed, this
switch is an ideal solution for department users to connect to the corporate backbone.
In the illustration below, two managed PoE switches with PCs, print server, local server,
wireless AP (IEEE 802.3af compliant), and IP camera (IEEE 802.3af compliant) attached
are both connect to the core switch. All the devices in this network can communicate with
each other through the core switch.
Segment Bridge application
17
Console Management

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 web management, user can log in to the switch to check the default IP of the switch via the console. Please refer to Console Management Chapter for console login.

IP Configuration
The switch is a network device which needs to be assigned an IP address for being identified on the network. Users have to decide a means of assigning IP address to the switch.
DHCP Client: Enable or disable the DHCP client function. When DHCP client
function is enabled, the 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 the user clicks Apply, a popup dialog shows up 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, this switch is configured as a DHCP client. The network DHCP server will assign the IP address to the switch and display it in this column. The default IP is 192.168.16.1 or the user has to assign an IP address manually when DHCP Client is disabled.
Subnet Mask: Assign the subnet mask to the IP address. If DHCP client function
is disabled, the user has to assign the subnet mask in this column field.
Gateway: Assign the network gateway for the switch. If DHCP client function is
disabled, the user has to assign the gateway in this column field. The default gateway is 192.168.16.254.
DNS1: Assign the primary DNS IP address.  DNS2: Assign the secondary DNS IP address.

DHCP 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 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. Having enabled the DHCP server function, the switch system will be configured as a DHCP server.
52
DHCP Server Configuration
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. Enablethe switch
will be the DHCP server on your local network
Low IP Address: The dynamic IP range. Low IP address is the beginning of the
dynamic IP range. For example: dynamic IP range is from 192.168.1.100 ~
192.168.1.200. In contrast, 192.168.1.100 is the Low IP address
High IP Address: The dynamic IP range. High IP address is the end of the
dynamic IP range. For example: dynamic IP range is from 192.168.1.100 ~
192.168.1.200. In comparison, 192.168.1.200 is the High IP address
Subnet Mask: The dynamic IP assign range subnet mask  Gateway: The gateway in your network  DNS: The IP Address of the Domain Name Server 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 doesnt know that the dynamic IP is idle

SNTP Configuration
SNTP (Simple Network Time Protocol) is a simplified version of NTP which is an Internet protocol used to synchronize the clocks of computers to some time reference. Because time usually just advances, the time on different node stations will be different. With the communicating programs running on those devices, it would cause time to jump forward and back, a non-desirable effect. Therefore, the switch provides comprehensive mechanisms to access national time and frequency dissemination services, organize the time-synchronization subnet and the local clock in each participating subnet peer. Daylight saving time (DST) is the convention of advancing clocks so that afternoons have more daylight and mornings have less. Typically clocks are adjusted forward one hour near the start of spring and are adjusted backward in autumn.
SNTP Client: Enable/disable SNTP function to get the time from the SNTP server.
(SNTP Client default is Disable.)
Daylight Saving Time: This is used as a control switch to enable/disable daylight
saving period and daylight saving offset. Users can configure Daylight Saving Period and Daylight Saving Offset in a certain period time and offset time while there is no need to enable daylight saving function. Afterwards, users can just set this item as enable without assign Daylight Saving Period and Daylight Saving Offset again.
UTC Timezone: Universal Time, Coordinated. Set the switch location time zone.

Port Trunk
Port trunking is the combination of several ports or network cables to expand the connection speed beyond the limits of any one single port or network cable. Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), which is a protocol running on layer 2, provides a standardized means in accordance with IEEE 802.3ad to bundle several physical ports together to form a single logical channel. All the ports within the logical channel or so-called logical aggregator work at the same connection speed and LACP operation requires full-duplex mode.
Port TrunkAggregator setting
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 peer of the trunk group.
Group ID:
There are 4 trunk groups to be selected. Assign the "
Group ID
" to the
trunk group.
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. Please notice that a trunk group, including member ports split between two switches, has to enable the LACP function of the two switches. 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 wont know that they should be aggregated together to form a logic trunk group.
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/redundant ports and can be aggregated if working ports fail. If it is a static trunk group (non-LACP), the number of work ports must equal the total number of group member ports.
Select the ports to join the trunk group. The system allows a maximum of four
ports to be aggregated in a trunk group. Click
Add
and the ports focused in
the right side will be shifted to the left side. To remove unwanted ports, select the
76
ports and click

The Port mirroring is a method for monitor 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 mirror (destination) port.
Destination Port: There is only one port can be selected to be destination (mirror)
port for monitoring both RX and TX traffic which come from source port. Or, use one of two ports for monitoring RX traffic only and the other one for TX traffic only. User can connect mirror port to LAN analyzer or Netxray.
Source Port: The ports that user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will be
copied to mirror (destination) port. User can select multiple source ports by checking the RX or TX check boxes to be monitored.

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 on 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.
This switch supports Port-based and 802.1Q (tagged-based) VLAN. The default configuration of VLAN operation mode is ―Disable.
VLAN Configuration interface
89
VLAN configurationPort-based VLAN
A port-based VLAN basically consists of its membersports, which means the VLAN is created by grouping the selected ports. This method provides the convenience for users to configure a simple VLAN easily without complicated steps. 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. The port-based VLAN function allows the user to create separate VLANs to limit the unnecessary packet flooding; however, for the purpose of sharing resource, a single port called a common port can belongs to different VLANs, which all the member devices (ports) in different VLANs have the permission to access the common port while they still cannot communicate with each other in different VLANs.

802.1Q VLAN
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) can be implemented on the switch to logically create different broadcast domain. When the 802.1Q VLAN function is enabled, all ports on the switch belong to default VLAN of VID 1, which means they logically are regarded as members of the same broadcast domain. The valid VLAN ID is in the range of number between 1 and 4094. The amount of VLAN groups is up to 256 including default VLAN that cannot be deleted. Each member port of 802.1Q is on either an Access Link (VLAN-tagged) or a Trunk Link (no VLAN-tagged). All frames on an Access Link carry no VLAN identification. Conversely, all frames on a Trunk Link are VLAN-tagged. Besides, there is the third modeHybrid. A Hybrid Link can carry both VLAN-tagged frames and untagged frames. A single port is supposed to belong to one VLAN group, except it is on a Trunk/Hybrid Link. The technique of 802.1Q tagging inserts a 4-byte tag, including VLAN ID of the destination portPVID, in the frame. With the combination of Access/Trunk/Hybrid Links, the communication across switches also can make the packet sent through tagged and untagged ports.

Enable GVRP Protocol: 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. For example, having enabled GVRP on two switches, they are able to automatically exchange the information of their VLAN database. Therefore, the user doesnt need to manually configure whether the link is trunk or hybrid, the packets belonging to the same VLAN can communicate across switches. Tick this checkbox to enable GVRP protocol. This checkbox is available while the VLAN Operation Mode is in
802.1Q mode.
Management VLAN ID: Only when the VLAN members, whose Untagged VID
(PVID) equals to the value in this column, will have the permission to access the switch. The default value is 0 that means this limit is not enabled (all members in different VLANs can access this switch).
Select the port you want to configure.  Link Type: There are 3 types of link type.
Access Link: A segment which provides the link path for one or more stations
to the VLAN-aware device. An Access Port (untagged port), connected to the access link, has an untagged VID (also called PVID). After an untagged frame gets into the access port, the switch will insert a four-byte tag in the frame. The contents of the last 12-bit of the tag is untagged VID. When this frame is sent out through any of the access port of the same PVID, the switch will remove the tag from the frame to recover it to what it was. Those ports of the same untagged VID are regarded as the same VLAN group members.
Note: Because the access port doesnt have an understanding of tagged frame, the column field of Tagged VID is not available.
