It is recommended to use PLANET SFPs on the Industrial Managed Switch. If you insert an
SFP transceiver that is not supported, the Industrial Managed Switch might not recognize it.
Please choose the SFP transceiver which can be operated in the temperature range of -40~75
degrees C.
1000BASE-SX/LX:
Before connecting the other switches, workstation or media converter,
1. Make sure both sides of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example, 1000BASE-SX to
1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX to 1000BASE-LX.
2. Check whether the fiber-optic cable type matches the SFP transceiver model.
To connect to 1000BASE-SX SFP transceiver, use the multi-mode fiber cable -- with one side being the male duplex
LC connector type.
To connect to 1000BASE-LX SFP transceiver, use the single-mode fiber cable -- with one side being the male duplex
LC connector type.
Connecting the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable to the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a media
converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot on the front of the Industrial Managed Switch. Ensure that the SFP transceiver
is operating correctly.
100BASE-FX:
Before connecting the other switches, workstation or media converter,
1. Make sure both sides of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type or WDM pair, for example: 100BASE-FX to
100BASE-FX, 100BASE-BX20-U to 100BASE-BX20-D.
2. Check whether the fiber-optic cable type matches the SFP transceiver model.
To connect to MFB-FX SFP transceiver, use the multi-mode fiber cable -- with one side being the male duplex LC
connector type.
To connect to MFB-F20/F40/F60/FA20/FB20 SFP transceiver, use the single-mode fiber cable -- with one side being
the male duplex LC connector type.
Connecting the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable to the SFP transceiver.
2. Connect the other end of the cable to a device – switches with SFP installed, fiber NIC on a workstation or a media
converter.
3. Check the LNK/ACT LED of the SFP slot of the switch / converter. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is operating correctly.

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link fails. It can function with some fiber-NICs or media converters, and set the
Link mode to “100 Force” when needed.
2.2.5 Removing the SFP Transceiver (For IGS-4215-4P4T2S)
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consulting or checking with the network administrator. Or through the
management interface of the switch/converter (if available) to disable the port in advance.
2. Remove the fiber optic cable gently.
3. Turn the lever of the MGB / MFB module to a horizontal position.
4. Pull out the module gently through the lever.
Figure 2-10: Pull out the SFP Transceiver Module
Never pull out the module without pulling the lever or the push bolts on the module. Directly pulling
out the module with force could damage the module and SFP module slot of the device.

3. SWITCH MANAGEMENT
This chapter explains the methods that you can use to configure management access to the Industrial Managed Switch. It
describes the types of management applications and the communication and management protocols that deliver data between
your management device (workstation or personal computer) and the system. It also contains information about port connection
options.
This chapter covers the following topics:
Requirements
Management Access Overview
Administration Console Access
Web Management Access
SNMP Access
Standards, Protocols, and Related Reading
3.1 Requirements

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
3.2 Management Access Overview
The Industrial Managed Switch gives you the flexibility to access and manage it using any or all of the following methods:
An administration console
Web browser interface
An external SNMP-based network management application
The administration console and Web browser interfaces are embedded in the Industrial Managed Switch software and are
available for immediate use. Each of these management methods has their own advantages. Table 3-1 compares the three
management methods.
Method Advantages Disadvantages
Console
Web Browser
SNMP Agent
No IP address or subnet needed
Text-based
Telnet functionality and HyperTerminal
built into Windows
95/98/NT/2000/ME/XP operating
systems
Secure
Ideal for configuring the switch remotely
Compatible with all popular browsers
Can be accessed from any location
Most visually appealing
Communicates with switch functions at
the MIB level
Based on open standards
Must be near the switch or use dial-up
connection
Not convenient for remote users
Modem connection may prove to be unreliable
or slow
Security can be compromised (hackers need
to only know the IP address and subnet mask)
May encounter lag times on poor connections
Requires SNMP manager software
Least visually appealing of all three methods
Some settings require calculations
Security can be compromised (hackers need
to only know the community name)
Table 3-1 Comparison of Management Methods

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
3.3 Administration Console
The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, and command line user interface for performing system
administration such as displaying statistics or changing option settings. Using this method, you can view the administration
console from a terminal, personal computer, Apple Macintosh, or workstation connected to the Industrial Managed Switch's
console port.
Figure 3-1-1: Console Management
Direct Access
Direct access to the administration console is achieved by directly connecting a terminal or a PC equipped with a
terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) to the Industrial Managed Switch console (serial) port. When using this
management method, a straight RS-232 to RJ45 cable is required to connect the switch to the PC. After making this
connection, configure the terminal-emulation program to use the following parameters:
The default parameters are:
115200 bps
8 data bits
No parity
1 stop bit
Figure 3-1-2: Terminal Parameter Settings
41
User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
You can change these settings, if desired, after you log on. This management method is often preferred because you can
remain connected and monitor the system during system reboots. Also, certain error messages are sent to the serial port,
regardless of the interface through which the associated action was initiated. A Macintosh or PC attachment can use any
terminal-emulation program for connecting to the terminal serial port. A workstation attachment under UNIX can use an
emulator such as TIP.
3.4 Web Management
The Industrial Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Industrial Managed Switch from
anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer. After you set up your IP address for
the switch, you can access the Industrial Managed Switch's Web interface applications directly in your Web browser by entering
the IP address of the Industrial Managed Switch.
Figure 3-1-3 Web Management
You can then use your Web browser to list and manage the Industrial Managed Switch configuration parameters from one
central location, just as if you were directly connected to the Industrial Managed Switch's console port. Web Management
requires either Microsoft Internet Explorer 8.0 or later, Google Chrome, Safari or Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later.

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
3.5 SNMP-based Network Management
You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the Industrial Managed Switch, such as SNMPc
Network Manager, HP Openview Network Node Management (NNM) or What’s Up Gold. This management method requires
the SNMP agent on the switch and the SNMP Network Management Station to use the same community string. This
management method, in fact, uses two community strings: the get community string and the set community string. If the
SNMP Network management Station only knows the set community string, it can read and write to the MIBs. However, if it only
knows the get community string, it can only read MIBs. The default gets and sets community strings for the Industrial Managed
Switch are public.
