Chapter 1 Introduction to the Web Smart Switch

1.1 General Description

High Performance

GES-2450 is a powerful, high-performance Gigabit Ethernet switch with 24*10/100/1000Mbps ports and 4*SFP (mini GBIC) ports, providing you a cost-effective, space-saving solution for expanding your network. The gigabit ports can lead you to a real gigabit connection, making you be able to transfer high bandwidth-needed files larger and faster in an easy way. And the four mini gigabit ports allow you to add fiber-optic connectivity for connecting to other network switches to obtain long-distance communication.

This device provides the easy management function through the Ethernet Web. The network administrator can configure the status and the port function setting of the device through the Web-Based UI. When installing the auto-discovery management tool helps network managers to search and access those switches on LAN easily. Therefore, network managers can access switches that support auto-discovery on LAN without memorizing IP address.

Smart Features

GES-2450 provides rich features including Link Aggregation, VLANs, IGMP Snooping, Port Trunking, Spanning Tree, Security (Port Security and 802.1x authentication) and other network management to meet the requirements evolving medium and small-sized enterprises. QoS secures the bandwidth for some bandwidth-demanded applications including VoIP or video conference. Additionally, IEEE 802.3az Energy Efficient Ethernet ability is supported to promise operation in Low Power Idle Mode and save power consumption.

Easy Installation and Management

This switch is plug & play and hassle-free in installation. Auto-MDI/MDI-X crossover on all ports eliminates the need for crossover cables for connection to another switch or hub. Auto-Negotiation on each port senses the link speed of a network device and intelligently adjusts for compatibility and optimal performance. This switch also features diagnostic LEDs, which display the status and activities of the LEDs, allowing you to quickly detect and correct problems on the network.

To power on the switch, please plug the female end of the power cord firmly into the receptacle of the switch and the other end into an electric service outlet. After the power cord installation, please check if the power LED is lit for a normal power status.

8

1.5 Installation

This switch can be placed on your desktop directly, or mounted in a rack. Please refer to the instructions for installation.

Before installing the switch, we recommend:

1.The switch is placed with appropriate ventilation environment. A minimum 25 mm space around the unit is recommended.

2.The switch and the relevant components are away from sources of electrical noise such as radios, transmitters and broadband amplifiers

3.The switch is away from environments beyond recommend moisture

Desktop Installation

1.Install the switch on a level surface that can support the weight of the unit and the relevant components.

2.Plug the switch with the female end of the provided power cord and plug the male end to the power outlet.

Rack-mount Installation

The switch may be standalone, or mounted in a rack. Rack mounting facilitate to an orderly installation when you are going to install series of networking devices.

Procedures to Rack-mount the switch:

1.Disconnect all the cables from the switch before continuing.

2.Place the unit the right way up on a hard, flat surface with the front facing you.

3.Locate a mounting bracket over the mounting holes on one side of the unit.

4.Insert the screws and fully tighten with a suitable screwdriver.

5.Repeat the two previous steps for the other side of the unit.

6.Insert the unit into the rack and secure with suitable screws.

7.Reconnect all the cables.

Installing Network Cables

1. Crossover or straight-through cable: All the ports on the switch support Auto-MDI/MDI-X functionality. Both straight-through or crossover cables can be used as the media to connect the switch with PCs as well as other devices like switches, hubs or router.

DESCRIPTION

 

Trunk

This field displays the trunk to identify a trunk group, that is, one logical link

 

containing multiple ports.

 

 

 

Type

This field displays the type of the trunk group: a static trunk or an LACP trunk.

 

 

This field displays which ports are master ports of the trunk. The port with

 

 

lowest port ID is choosed to be master port of the trunk. To synchronize the

 

Master port

settings of trunk member ports, the configuration to trunk master port would

 

be applied to all trunk member ports. Other member ports are slave ports that

 

 

 

 

can not be configured individually in most settings (such as VLAN, port ability

 

 

and so on.) but to follow the configuration of master port.

 

Member

This field shows the member ports of the trunk.

 

Active/

If the trunk is an LACP trunk, this field shows the LACP active and passive

 

Passive

ports. The LACP active port would send LACP PDU periodically.

 

Aggregated

This field displays the ports that aggregated in a trunk group. A static trunk

 

would be aggregated immediately; an LACP trunk exchanges LACP PDU to

 

 

link partner to aggregate.

 

Delete

Click this button to delete the trunk.

3.2 Network

Use the Network pages to configure settings for the switch network interface and how the switch connects to a remote server to get services.

3.2.1 IP Address

Use the IP Setting screen to configure the switch IP address and the default gateway device. The gateway field specifies the IP address of the gateway (next hop) for outgoing traffic.

The switch needs an IP address for it to be managed over the network. The factory default IP address is 192.168.1.1. The subnet mask specifies the network number portion of an IP address. The factory default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Click Network > IP Address in the navigation panel to display the screen as shown below.
