4.4 VLAN Setting

A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. It allows you to isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. 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 plug into the same switch physically.
The Switch supports IEEE 802.1Q (tagged-based) and Port-Base VLAN setting in web management page. In the default configuration, VLAN support is “No VLAN”.
Port-based VLAN
Port-based VLAN limit traffic that flows into and out of switch ports. Thus, all devices connected to a port are members of the VLAN(s) the port belongs to, whether there is a single computer directly connected to a switch, or an entire department.
On port-based VLAN.NIC do not need to be able to identify 802.1Q tags in packet headers. NIC send and receive normal Ethernet packets. If the packet's destination lies on the same segment, communications take place using normal Ethernet protocols. Even though this is always the case, when the destination for a packet lies on another switch port, VLAN con­siderations come into play to decide if the packet is dropped by the Switch or delivered.
IEEE 802.1Q VLANs
IEEE 802.1Q (tagged) VLAN are implemented on the Switch. 802.1Q VLAN require tagging, which enables them to span the entire network (assuming all switches on the network are IEEE 802.1Q-compliant).
VLAN allow a network to be segmented in order to reduce the size of broadcast domains. All packets entering a VLAN will only be forwarded to the stations (over IEEE 802.1Q enabled switches) that are members of that VLAN, and this includes broadcast, multicast and unicast packets from unknown sources.
VLAN can also provide a level of security to your network. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN will only deliver packets between stations that are members of the VLAN. Any port can be configured as either tagging or untagging. The untagging feature of IEEE
802.1Q VLAN allows VLAN to work with legacy switches that don't recognize VLAN tags in packet headers. The tagging feature allows VLAN to span multiple 802.1Q-compliant switches through a single physical con nection and allows Span­ning Tree to be enabled on all ports and work normally.
Any port can be configured as either tagging or untagging. The untagging feature of IEEE 802.1Q VLAN allows VLAN to work with legacy switches that don’t recognize VLAN tags in packet headers. The tagging feature allows VLAN to span multiple 802.1Q-compliant switches through a single physical connection and allows Spanning Tree to be enabled on all ports and work normally.
Some relevant terms:
Tag - The act of putting 802.1Q VLAN information into the header of a packet.
Untag - The act of stripping 802.1Q VLAN information out of the packet header.
802.1Q VLAN Tags
The figure below shows the 802.1Q VLAN tag. There are four additional octets inserted after the source MAC address. Their presence is indicated by a value of 0x8100 in the Ether Type field. When a packet's Ether Type field is equal to 0x8100, the packet carries the IEEE 802.1Q/802.1p tag. The tag is contained in the following two octets and consists of 3 bits of user priority, 1 bit of Canonical Format Identifier (CFI - used for encapsulating Token Ring packets so they can be carried across Ethernet backbones), and 12 bits of VLAN ID (VID). The 3 bits of user priority are used by 802.1p. The VID is the VLAN identifier and is used by the 802.1Q standard. Because the VID is 12 bits long, 4094 unique VLAN can be identified.
The tag is inserted into the packet header making the entire packet longer by 4 octets. All of the information originally contained in the packet is retained.

The Ether Type and VLAN ID are inserted after the MAC source address, but before the original Ether Type/Length or Logical Link Control. Because the packet is now a bit longer than it was originally, the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) must be recalculated.

Port VLAN ID
Packets that are tagged (are carrying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compliant network device to another with the VLAN information intact. This allows 802.1Q VLAN to span network devices (and indeed, the entire network – if all network devices are 802.1Q compliant).
Every physical port on a switch has a PVID. 802.1Q ports are also assigned a PVID, for use within the switch. If no VLAN are defined on the switch, all ports are then assigned to a default VLAN with a PVID equal to 1. Untagged packets are assigned the PVID of the port on which they were received. Forwarding decisions are based upon this P V ID, in so far as VLAN are concerned. Tagged packets are forwarded according to the VID contained within the tag. T agged packets are also assigned a PVID, but the PVID is not used to make packet forwarding decisions, the VID is.
Tag-aware switches must keep a table to relate PVID within the switch to VID on the network. The switch will compare the VID of a packet to be transmitted to the VID of the port that is to transmit the packet. If the two VID are different the switch will drop the packet. Because of the existence of the PVID for untagged packets and the VID for tagged packets, tag-aware and tag-unaware network devices can coexist on the same network.
A switch port can have only one PVID, but can have as many VID as the switch has memory in its VLAN table to store them.
Because some devices on a network may be tag-unaware, a decision must be made at each port on a tag-aware device before packets are transmitted – should the packet to be transmitted have a tag or not? If the transmitting port is connected to a tag-unaware device, the packet should be untagged. If the transmitting port is connected to a tag-aware device, the packet should be tagged.
- 35 -
Default VLANs
The Switch initially configures one VLAN, VID = 1, called "default." The factory default setting assigns all ports on the Switch to the "default". As new VLAN are configured in Port-based mode, their respective member ports are removed from the "default."
Based on the Switch chipset specifications, the Switch supports SVL(Shared VLAN Learn- ing) , and all VLAN groups share the same Layer 2 learned MAC address table.

1. While [PC-1] transmits an untagged packet enters Port-1, the Web Smart Switch will tag it with a VLAN
Tag=2. [PC-2] and [PC-3] will receive the packet through Port-2 and Port-3.
2. [PC-4], [PC-5] and [PC-6] receive no packet.
3. While the packet leaves Port-2, it will be stripped away, and its tag becomes an untagged packet.
4. While the packet leaves Port-3, it will keep as a tagged packet with VLAN Tag=2.
Tagg ed packet entering VLAN 2
5. While [PC-3] transmits a tagged packet with VLAN Tag=2 entered. Port-3, [PC-1] and [PC-2] will receive
the packet through Port-1 and Port-2.
6. While the packet leaves Port-1 and Port-2, it will be stripped away. Its tag becomes an untagged packet.
Untagged packet entering VLAN 3
7. While [PC-4] transmits an untagged packet that enters Port-4, the switch will tag it with a VLAN Tag=3.
[PC-5] and [PC-6] will receive the packet through Port-5 and Port-6.
8. While the packet leaves Port-5, it will be stripped away. Its tag becomes an untagged packet.
9. While the packet leaves Port-6, it will keep as a tagged packet with VLAN Tag=3.
In this example, VLAN Group 1 is set as default VLAN, but only focuses on VLAN 2, VLAN 3 traffic flow.
Setup steps
1. Create VLAN Group:
Set VLAN Group 1 = default-VLAN with VID (VLAN ID) =1. Add two VLANs – VLAN 2 and VLAN 3, VLAN Group 2 with VID=2, VLAN Group 3 with VID=3.
2. Assign VLAN Member :
VLAN 2 : Port-1,Port-2 and Port-3. VLAN 3 : Port-4, Port-5 and Port-6. VLAN 1: All other ports – Port-7~Port-24.
- 41 -

4.5 Trunk

Port link aggregations can be used to increase the bandwidth of a network connection or to ensure fault recovery. Link aggregation lets you group up to 4 consecutive ports into a single dedicated conn ection between any two the Switch or other Layer 2 switches. However, before making any physical connections between devices, use the Link aggregation Configuration menu to specify the link aggregation on the devices at both ends. W hen using a port link aggregation, note that:
The ports used in a link aggregation must all be of the same media type (RJ-45, 100 Mbps fiber). The ports that can be assigned to the same link aggregation have certain other restrictions (see below). Ports can only be assigned to one link aggregation. The ports at both ends of a connection must be configured as link aggregation ports. None of the ports in a link aggregation can be configured as a mirror source port or a mirror target port. Enable the link aggregation prior to connecting any cable between the switches to avoid creating a data loop. Disconnect all link aggregation port cables or disable the link aggregation ports before removing a port link aggre-
gation to avoid creating a data loop.
It allows a maximum of 4 ports to be aggregated at the same time and up to 2 groups. If the group is defined as a local static link aggregation group, then the number of ports must be the same as the group member ports.

5. SWITCH OPERATION

5.1 Address Table

The Switch is implemented with an address table. This address table is composed of many entries. Each entry is used to store the address information of some node in network, including MAC address, port no, etc. This information comes from the learning process of Ethernet Switch.

5.2 Learning

When one packet comes in from any port, the Switch will record the source address, port number and the other re­lated information in address table. This information will be used to decid e either forwarding or filtering for future packets.

5.3 Forwarding & Filtering

When one packet comes from some port of the Ethernet Switching, it will also check the destination address besides the source address learning. The Ethernet Switching will look up the address-table for the destination address. If not found, this packet will be forwarded to all the other ports except the port which this packet comes in. And these ports will transmit this packet to the network it connected. If found, and the destination address is located at a different port from this packet comes in, the Ethernet Switching will forward this packet to the port where this destination address is located according to the information from the address table. But, if the destination address is located at the same port with this packet that comes in, then this packet will be filtered,thereby increasing the network throughp ut and avail­ability.

5.4 Store-and-Forward

Store-and-Forward is one type of packet-forwarding techniques. A Store-and Forward Ethernet Switching stores the incoming frame in an internal buffer, do the complete error checking before transmission. Therefore, no error packets occur. It is the best choice when a network needs efficiency and stability.
The Ethernet Switch scans the destination address from the packet-header, searches the routing table provided for the
incoming port and forwards the packet, only if required. The fast forwarding makes the switch attractive for connecting servers directly to the network, thereby increasing throughput and availability. However, the switch is most commonly used to segment existing hubs, which nearly always improves the overall performance. An Ethernet Switching can be easily configured in any Ethernet network environment to significantly boost bandwidth using the conventional cabling and adapters.
Due to the learning function of the Ethernet switching, the source address and correspo nding port number of each incoming and outgoing packet are stored in a routing table. This information is subsequently used to filter packets whose destination address is on the same segment as the source address. This confines network traffic to its re­spective domain, reducing the overall load on the network.
The Switch performs "Store and forward" therefore, no error packets occur. More reliably, it reduces the re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.
- 76 -

5.5 Auto-Negotiation

The STP ports on the Switch have built-in "Auto-negotiation". This technolog y automatically sets the best possible bandwidth when a connection is established with another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is done by detecting the modes and speeds at the second of both devices connected. Both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX de­vices can connect with the port in either half- or full-duplex mode. 1 000Base-T can be on ly connected in full-d uplex mode.

6. TROUBLESHOOTING

This chapter contains information to help you solve problems. If the Switch is not functioning properly, make sure the Ethernet Switch is set up according to instructions in this manual.
The Link LED is not lit
Solution:
Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the Switch.
Some stations cannot t alk to other stations located on the other port
Solution:
Please check the VLAN, port trunking function that may introduce this kind of problem.

Performance is bad

Solution:
Check the full duplex status of the Ethernet Switch. If the Ethernet Switch is set to full duplex and the partner is set to half duplex, then the performance will be poor.

100Base-TX port link LED is lit, but the traffic is irregular

Solution:
Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full duplex. Some devices use a physical or software switch to change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may not recognize this type of full-duplex setting.
Why the Switch doesn’t connect to the network
Solution:
Check the LNK/ACT LED on the switch Try another port on the Switch. Make sure the cable is installed properly. Make sure the cable is the right type. Turn off the power. After a while, turn on the power again.
How to deal with the forgotten password situation of FGSW-1820CS / FGSW-2620CS
Solution:
Please press Reset button on front panel for 5 seconds and then the Web Smart Switch will reset to factory default mode(user name and password: admin)
