PD alive check
Scheduled power recycling
PoE schedule
PoE usage monitoring
Intelligent Powered Device Alive Check
The IGS-4215 series can be configured to monitor connected PD (Powered Device) status in real time via ping action. Once the
PD stops working and responding, the IGS-4215 series will resume the PoE port power and bring the PD back to work. It will
greatly enhance the network reliability through the PoE port resetting the PD’s power source and reducing administrator
management burden.
Scheduled Power Recycling
The IGS-4215 series allows each of the connected PoE IP cameras or PoE wireless access points to reboot at a specific time
each week. Therefore, it will reduce the chance of IP camera or AP crash resulting from buffer overflow.

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
PoE Schedule for Energy Sav
Under the trend of energy saving worldwide and contributing to environmental protection, the IGS-4215 series can effectively
control the power supply besides its capability of giving high watts power. The “PoE schedule” function helps you to enable or
disable PoE power feeding for each PoE port during specified time intervals and it is a powerful function to help SMBs or
enterprises save power and budget. It also increases security by powering off PDs that should not be in use during
non-business hours.
ing
PoE Usage Monitoring and Intelligent LED Indicator for Real-time PoE Usage
Via the power usage chart in the web management interface, the IGS-4215 series enables the administrator to monitor the
status of the power usage of the connected PDs in real time. Thus, it greatly enhances the management efficiency of the
facilities. Moreover, the IGS-4215 series helps users to monitor the current status of PoE power usage easily and efficiently via
its advanced LED indication. Called “PoE Power Usage”, the front panel of the IGS-4215 series has four LED indicators of
different power usages.
Environmentally Hardened Design
With the IP30 aluminum industrial case, the IGS-4215 series provides a high level of immunity against electromagnetic
interference and heavy electrical surges which are usually found on plant floors or in curb-side traffic control cabinets without air
conditioner. Being able to operate under the temperature range from -40 to 75 degrees C, the IGS-4215 series can be placed in
almost any difficult environment.

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
IPv6/IPv4 Dual Stack Management
Supporting both IPv6 and IPv4 protocols, the IGS-4215 series helps the system integrators to step in the IPv6 era with the
lowest investment as its network facilities need not be replaced or overhauled if the IPv6 network is set up.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The IGS-4215 series can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic port link aggregation,
802.1Q VLAN, Q-in-Q VLAN, Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP), Loop and BPDU Guard, IGMP Snooping, and MLD
Snooping. Via the link aggregation, the IGS-4215 series allows the operation of a high-speed trunk to combine with multiple
ports such as a 16Gbps fat pipe, and supports fail-over as well. Also, the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) is the Layer 2
protocol included to help discover basic information about neighboring devices on the local broadcast domain.
Efficient Traffic Control
The IGS-4215 series are loaded with robust QoS features and powerful traffic management to enhance services to
business-class data, voice, and video solutions. The functionality includes broadcast/multicast/unicast storm control, per port
bandwidth control, 802.1p/CoS/IP DSCP QoS priority and remarking. It guarantees the best performance in VoIP and video
stream transmission, and empowers the enterprises to take full advantage of the limited network resources.
Friendly and Secure Management
For efficient management, the IGS-4215 series are equipped with web, Telnet and SNMP management interfaces. With the
built-in web-based management interface, the IGS-4215 series offer an easy-to-use, platform-independent management and
configuration facility. By supporting the standard SNMP, the switch can be managed via any standard management software.
For text-based management, the switch can be accessed via Telnet. Moreover, the IGS-4215 series offer secure remote
management by supporting SSH, SSL and SNMP v3 connections which encrypt the packet content at each session.

User’s Manual of IGS-4215 Series
Advanced Network Security
PLANET IGS-4215 series offer a comprehensive IPv4/IPv6 Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing
security to the edge. Its protection mechanism also comprises 802.1X port-based user and device authentication, which can be
deployed with RADIUS to ensure the port level security and block illegal users. With the protected port function,
communication between edge ports can be prevented to guarantee user privacy. Furthermore, the IGS-4215 series also provide
DHCP snooping, IP source guard and dynamic ARP inspection functions to prevent IP snooping from attack and discarded
ARP packets with invalid MAC address. The network administrators can now construct highly-secure corporate networks with
considerably less time and effort than before.
Flexibility and Long-distance Extension Solution
The two mini-GBIC slots built in the IGS-4215-4P4T2S support SFP auto-detection and dual speed as it features 100BASE-FX
and 1000BASE-SX/LX SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable) fiber transceivers to uplink to backbone switch and monitoring
center in long distance. The distance can be extended from 550 meters to 2 kilometers (multi-mode fiber) and up to
10/20/30/40/50/60/70/120 kilometers (single-mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for applications within the
enterprise data centers and distributions.
Intelligent SFP Diagnosis Mechanism
The IGS-4215-4P4T2S supports SFP-DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitor) function that greatly helps network administrator to
easily monitor real-time parameters of the SFP, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, laser bias
current, and transceiver supply voltage

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.
37
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.

3.2 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

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.
Figure 3-1-4 Web Main Screen of Industrial Managed Switch

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.
Figure 3-1-5 SNMP Management

3.6 PLANET Smart Discovery Utility

4. WEB CONFIGURATION

This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-based management.
About Web-based 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.
The Web-based Management supports Internet Explorer 8.0. It is based on Java Applets with an aim to reduce network
bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing screen.
By default, IE8.0 or later version does not allow Java Applets to open sockets. The user has to
explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use network ports.
The Industrial Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, making sure the manager PC must be set
on the same IP subnet address as the Industrial Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the Industrial Managed Switch is 192.168.0.100, then the manager PC should be set at
192.168.0.x (where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
If you have changed the default IP address of the Industrial Managed Switch to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask 255.255.255.0
via console, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.1.x (where x is a number between 2 and 254) to do the relative
configuration on manager PC.
Figure 4-1-1 Web Management
Logging on the switch
1. Use Internet Explorer 8.0 or above Web browser. Enter the factory-default IP address to access the Web interface. The
factory-default IP address is as follows:
