Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1 About the RGS-7244GP(-E) Industrial Switch

RGS-7244GP series are the managed redundant ring Ethernet switches with
24x10/100/1000Base-(TX) ports and 4x1000Base-X SFP ports. With complete support of
Ethernet Redundancy protocol, O-Ring (Gigabit model recovery time < 20ms over 250 units of
connection) and MSTP/RSTP/STP (IEEE 802.1s/w/D) can protect your mission-critical
applications from network interruptions or temporary malfunctions with its fast recovery
technology.

ORing’s Thunder Series Ethernet switches provide advanced IP-based bandwidth
management which can limit the maximum bandwidth for each IP device. User can configure
IP camera and NVR with more bandwidth and limit other device bandwidth.

ORing’s Thunder Series Ethernet switches also support application-based QoS.
Application-based QoS can set highest priority for data stream according to TCP/UDP port
number. ORing’s special IP police function can permit only allowed IP address with MAC
address to access the networking. Hacker cannot access the IP surveillance network without
permission. It can avoid hacker from stealing video privacy data and attacking IP camera,
NVR and controllers.

Moreover, ORing’s Thunder Series Ethernet switches provide advanced DoS/DDoS auto
prevention. If there is any IP flow become big in short time, ORing’s thunder switch will lock
the source IP address for certain time to prevent the attack. It is hardware-based prevention
so it can prevent DDOS attack immediately and completely. And all functions of
RGS-7244GP can also be managed centralized and convenient by Open-Vision v3.0, except
the Web-based interface, Telnet and console (CLI) configuration. Therefore, the switch is one
of the most reliable choice for highly-managed and Gigabit Fiber Ethernet application.

This section introduces the configuration by Web browser.

4.1.1 About Web-based Management

An embedded HTML web site resides in flash memory on the CPU board. It contains
advanced management features and allows you to manage the switch from anywhere on the
network through a standard web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.

The Web-Based Management function supports Internet Explorer 5.0 or later. It is based
on Java Applets with an aim to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access
speed and present an easy viewing screen.

Note: By default, IE5.0 or late r version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. You need to explicitly modify
the browser setting in order to enable Java Applets to use network ports.

Preparing for Web Management

The default value is as below:
IP Address: 192.168.10.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway: 192.168.10.254
User Name: admin
Password: admin

System Login

1. Launch the Internet Explorer.

2. Type http:// and the IP address of the switch. Press “Enter”.

unit.

System Capabilites

System Capabilities describes the neighbor unit's capabilities.
The possible capabilities are:

1. Other

2. Repeater

3. Bridge

4. WLAN Access Point

5. Router

6. Telephone

7. DOCSIS cable device

8. Station only

9. Reserved
When a capability is enabled, the capability is followed by (+). If
the capability is disabled, the capability is followed by (-).

Management

Address

Management Address is the neighbor unit's address that is used
for higher layer entities to assist the discovery by the network
management. This could for instance hold the neighbor's IP
address.

LLDP Statistics

This page provides an overview of all LLDP traffic.
Two types of counters are shown. Global counters are counters that refer to the whole stack,
switch, while local counters refer to counters for the currently selected switch.

Global Counters

Label Description

Neighbor entries

were last changed at

Shows the time for when the last entry was last deleted or added.
It is also shows the time elapsed since last change was detected.

T otal Neighbors

Entries Added

Shows the number of new entries added since switch reboot.

T otal Neighbors

Entries Deleted

Shows the number of new entries deleted since switch reboot.

T otal Neighbors

Entries Dropped

Shows the number of LLDP frames dropped due to that the entry
table was full.

T otal Neighbors

Entries Aged Out

Shows the number of entries deleted due to Time-To-Live
expiring.

Local Counters

Label Description

Local Port

The port on which LLDP frames are received or transm itted.

Tx Frames

The number of LLDP frames transmitted on the port.

Rx Frames

The number of LLDP frames received on the port.

Rx Errors

The number of received LLDP frames containing some kind of
error.

Frames Discarded

If an LLDP frame is received on a port, and the switch's internal
table has run full, the LLDP frame is counted and discarded. This
situation is known as "Too Many Neighbors" in the LLDP
standard. LLDP frames require a new entry in the table when the
Chassis ID or Remote Port ID is not already contained within the
table. Entries are removed from the table when a given port links
down, an LLDP shutdown frame is received, or when the entry
ages out.

TL Vs Discarded

Each LLDP frame can contain multiple pieces of information,
known as TLVs (TLV is short for "Type Length Value"). If a TLV is
malformed, it is counted and discarded.

TL Vs Unrecognized

The number of well-formed TLVs, but with an unknown type
value.

Org. Discarded

The number of organizationally TLVs received.

Age-Outs

Each LLDP frame contains information about how long time the
LLDP information is valid (age-out time). If no new LLDP frame is
received within the age out time, the LLDP information is
removed, and the Age-Out counter is incremented.

4.1.3 DHCP Server

4.1.3.1 Setting

The system provides with DHCP server function. Enable the DHCP server function, the
switch system will be a DHCP server.

4.1.3.2 DHCP Dynamic Client List

When the DHCP server function is activated, the system will collect the DHCP client
information and display in here.

4.1.3.3 DHCP Client List

You can assign the specific IP address which is in the assigned dynamic IP range to the
specific port. When the device is connecting to the port and asks for dynamic IP assigning,
the system will assign the IP address that has been assigned before in the connected device.

4.1.4 Port Setting

4.1.4.1 Port Control

This page displays current port configurations. Ports can also be configure d here.

Label Description

Port

This is the logical port number for this row.

Link

The current link state is displayed graphically. Green indicates the
link is up and red that it is down.

Current Link Speed

Provides the current link speed of the port.

Configured Link

Speed

Select any available link speed for the given switch port.
Auto Speed selects the highest speed that is compatible with a
link partner.
Disabled disables the switch port operation.

Flow Control

When Auto Speed is selected for a port, this section indicates the
flow control capability that is advertised to the link partner.
When a fixed-speed setting is selected, that is what is used. The
Current Rx column indicates whether pause frames on the port
are obeyed, and the Current Tx column indicates whether pause
frames on the port are transmitted. The Rx and Tx settings are
determined by the result of the last Auto-Negotiation.
Check the configured column to use flow control. This setting is
related to the setting for Configured Link Speed.

Maximum Frame

Enter the maximum frame size allowed for the switch port,
including FCS. The allowed range is 1518 bytes to 9600 bytes.

Excessive Collision

Mode

Configure port transmit collision behavior.
Discard: Discard frame after 16 collisions (default).
Restart: Restart back-off algorithm after 16 collisions.

Power Control

The Usage column shows the current percentage of the power
consumption per port. The Configured column allows for changing
the power savings mode parameters per port.
Disabled: All power savings mechanisms disabled.
ActiPHY: Link down power savings enabled.
PerfectReach: Link up power savings enabled.
Enabled: Both link up and link down power savings enabled.

T otal Power Usage
