3.2 Management Access Overview

The Managed Switch gives you the flexibility to access and manage it using any or all of the following methods:
An administrat ion console Web browser interface  An external SNMP-based network management application
The administration console and Web browser interface support are embedded in the 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.

Table 3-1 Management Methods Comparison

3.3 Administration Console

The administration console is an interna l, chara cter -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 switch's console (serial) port. There are two ways to use this management method: via direct access or modem port access. The following sections describe these methods. For more information about using the console, refer to Chapter 5 Command Line Interface Console Management.
User’s Manual of WGSW-28040 / 28040P / 28040P4
35
Figure 3-1 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 Managed Switch console (serial) port. When using this management method, a straight DB9 RS-232 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 3-2 Terminal parameter settings
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 progra m for connect ing to th e ter minal serial port . A workstation attachment und er UNIX can u se an em ulato r such as TIP.

3.4 Web Management

The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Managed Switch from anywhere on the network through a sta ndard brow ser such as M icros oft Intern et Ex plorer. After you set up your IP ad dress for the sw itch, yo u can access the Managed Switch's Web interface applications directly in your Web browser by entering the IP address of the Managed Switch.
Figure 3-3 Web management
You can then use your Web browser to list and manage the Managed Switch configuration par amet er s from one central locati on , just as if you were directly connected to the Managed Switch's console port. Web Management requires either Microsoft
Internet Explorer 7.0 or later , Safari or Mozilla Firefox 1.5 or later.

3.5 SNMP-Based Network Management

You can use an external SNMP-based application to configure and manage the 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 Net-work 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 Managed Switch are public.

4. WEB CONFIGURATION

This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management.
About Web-based Management
The Managed Switch offers management features that allow users to manage the Managed Switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 7.0. 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, IE7.0 or later version does explicitly modify the browser setting to enable Java Applets to use network ports.
The Managed Switch can be configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure the manager PC must be set on same the IP subnet address with the Managed Switch.
For example, the default IP address of the SGSW 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 def aul t IP address of the Managed Switch to 192.168.1.1 with subnet mask 255.255. 255. 0 v ia co n sole , 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.

4.2.8 SNMP Management

4.2.8.1 SNMP Overview
The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an appl icat ion layer pr oto col that facilitates the exchange of management information betw een netw ork dev ices. It is p art of the Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/I P) protocol suite. SNMP enables network administrators to manage network performance, find and solve network problems, and plan for network growth.
An SNMP-managed network consists of three key components: Network management stations (NMSs), SNMP agents, Management information base (MIB) and network-management protocol Network management stations (NMSs):Sometimes called consoles, these devices execute management applications
that monitor and control network elements. Physically, NMSs are usually engineering workstation-caliber computers with fast CPUs, megapixel color displays, subst ant i al me mory, and abundant disk space. At lea s t one NMS must be present in each managed environment.
AgentsAgents are software modules that reside in network elements. They collect and store management information
such as the number of error packets received by a network element.
Management information base (MIB)A MIB is a collection of managed objects residing in a virtual information store.
Collections of related managed objects are defined in specific MIB modules.
network-management protocolA management protocol is used to convey management information between agents
and NMSs. SNMP is the Internet community's de facto standard management protocol.
SNMP Operations
SNMP itself is a simple request/response protocol. NMSs can send multiple requests without receiving a response.
Get -- Allows the NMS to retrieve an object instance from the agent. Set -- Allows the NMS to set values for object instances within an agent. Trap -- Used by the agent to asynchronously inform the NMS of some event. The SNMPv2 trap message is designed to
replace the SNMPv1 trap message.
SNMP community
An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong to. It helps define where information is sent. The communit y name is used to identify the group. A SNMP device or agent may belong to more than one SNMP community. It will not respond to requests from m anag ement st at ions th at do not bel o ng to one of its communities. S NMP default communities are:
Write = private Read = public

4.3.7 Protected Ports

Overview
When a switch port is configured to be a member of protected group (also called Private VLAN), communication between protected ports within that group can be prevented. Two application examples are provided in this section:
Customers connected to an ISP can be members of the protected group, but they are not allowed to communicate with each other within that VLAN.
Servers in a farm of web servers in a Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) are allowed to communicate with the outside world and with database servers on the inside segment, but are not allowed to communicate with each other
For protected port group to be appl ied, t he Managed switch must first be configured for standard VLAN operation. Ports in a protected port group fall into one of these two groups: Promiscuous (Unprotected) ports
— Ports from which traffic can be forwarded to all ports in the private VLAN — Ports which can receive traffic from all ports in the private VLAN
Isolated (Protected) ports
— Ports from which traffic can only be forwarded to promiscuous ports in the private VLAN — Ports which can receive traffic from only promiscuous ports in the private VLAN
User’s Manual of WGSW-28040 / 28040P / 28040P4
80
The configuration of promiscuous and isolated ports applies to all private VLANs. When traffic comes in on a promiscuous port in a private VLAN, the VLAN mask from the VLAN table is appli ed. When traffi c comes in on an isolated port, the private VLAN mask is applied in addition to the VLAN mask from the VLAN table. This reduces the ports to which forwarding can be done to just the promiscuous ports within the private VLAN.
The port settings relate t o the c urrently sele cted st ack unit, as refle cted by the pa ge heade r. This feature works across the sta ck. The Port Isolation Configuration screen in Figure 4-3-13 & Figure 4-3-14 appears.

4.4 Link Aggregation

Port Aggregation opti mizes por t usa ge by l inking a group o f p orts t oget her to f orm a single Link Ag greg ated Gro ups (LAG s). Port Aggregation multiplies the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and provides link redundancy.
Each LAG is composed of ports of the same speed, set to full -duplex operations. Ports in a LAG, can be of diff ere nt media types (UTP/Fiber, or different fiber types), provided they operate at the same speed.
Aggregated Links can be assigned manually (Port Trunk) or automatically by enabling Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on the relevant links.
Aggregated Links are treated by the system as a single logical port. Specifically, the Aggregated Link has similar port attributes to a non-aggregated port, including auto-negotiation, speed, Duplex setting, etc.
The device supports the following Aggregation links :
Static LAGs (Port Trunk) – Force aggregared selected ports to be a trunk group.
Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) LAGs - LACP LAG negotiate Aggregated Port links with other LACP
ports located on a different device. If the other device ports are also LACP ports, the devices establish a LAG between them.

The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchangi ng information between Partner Systems that require high speed redundant links. Link aggregation lets you group up to eight consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection. T his fe atur e can ex p and bandw id th to a devic e on the netw ork. LAC P oper ation requir es fu ll-duplex mode , more detail information refer to the IEEE 802. 3ad st a ndard .
Figure 4-4-2 LACP with Backup Link
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 8 consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection 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 aggr egation on the devices at both ends. When 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.
All of the ports in a link aggregation have to be treated as a whole when moved from/to, added or deleted from a VLAN.
The Spanning Tree Protocol will treat all the ports in a link aggregation as a whole.
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 aggregation to
avoid creating a data loop.
It allows a maximum of 8 ports to be aggregated at the sam e time. The Managed Switch support Gigabit Ethernet ports (up to 8 groups). If the group i s def ined as a LACP st atic link ag greg ationi ng group, then a ny ex tra ports selecte d are pla ced in a st andby mode for redundancy if one of the other ports fails. If the group is defined as a local static link aggregationing group, then the number of ports must be the same as the group member ports.

4.5 VLAN

4.5.1 VLAN Overview

A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a network topology configured according to a logical scheme rather than the physical
layout. VLAN can be used to combine any collection of LAN segments into an autonomous user group that appears as a single LAN. VLAN also logically segment the network into different broadcast domains so that packets are forwarded only between ports within the VLAN. Typically, a VLAN corresponds to a particular subnet, although not necessarily.
VLAN can enhance performance by conserving bandwidth, and improve security by limiting traffic to specific domains.
A VLAN is a collection of end nodes grouped by logic instead of physical location. End nodes that frequently communicate with each other are assigned to the same VLAN, regardless of where they are physically on the network. Logically, a VLAN can be equated to a broadcast domain, because broadcast packets are forwarded to only members of the VLAN on which the broadcast was initiated.
1. No matter what basis is used to uniquely identify end nodes and assign these nodes VLAN membership, packets cannot cross VLAN without a network device performing a routing function between the VLAN.
2. The Managed Switch supports IEEE 802.1Q VLAN. The port untagging function can be used to remove the 802.1 tag from packet headers to maintain compatibility with devic es that ar e tag-unaware.
3. The Managed Switch's default is to assign all ports to a single 802.1Q VLAN named
be removed from the DEFAULT_ VLAN port member list. The DEFAULT_VLAN has a VID = 1.

4.5.2 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

In large networks, routers are used to isolate broadcast traffic for each subnet into separate domains. This Managed Switch provides a similar service at Layer 2 by using VLANs to organize any group of network nodes into separate broadcast domains. VLANs confine broadcast traffic to the originating group, and can eliminate broadcast storms in large networks. This also provides a more secure and cleaner network environm ent .
An IEEE 802.1Q VLAN is a gr oup of port s t hat can be l ocate d anyw here in the net work, b ut communicat e as thou gh they belon g to the same physical segment.
VLANs help to simplify network management by allowing you to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change any physical connections. VLAN s c an b e ea si ly or ga niz ed to reflect department al groups (such as Marketing or R&D), usag e groups (such as e-mail), or multicast groups (used for multimedia applications such as videoconferencing).
VLANs provide greater network efficiency by reducing broadcast traffic, and allow you to make network changes without having to update IP addresses or IP subnets. VLANs inherently provide a high level of network security since traffic must pass through a configured Layer 3 link to reach a different VLAN.
This Managed Switch supports the following VLAN features:
Up to 255 VLANs based on the IEEE 802.1Q standard  Port overlapping, allowing a port to participate in multiple VLANs  End stations can belong to multiple VLANs  Passing traffic between VLAN-aware and VLAN-unaware devices
IEEE 802.1Q Standard
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 sw itches) that are members of that VLAN, and this includes broa dca st, multicast and unicast packets from unknown sources.
VLAN can also provide a level of se curity to your netw ork. IE EE 802. 1Q V LAN w ill only d eliv er p acket s be tween sta tions t hat 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.
User’s Manual of WGSW-28040 / 28040P / 28040P4
93
Original Ethernet
New Tagged Packet
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:
- Tagging - The act of putting 802.1Q VLAN information into the header of a packet.
- Untagging - 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 t he IE EE 802.1Q/802.1p t ag. The tag is c ontained in the f oll owing two octets and co nsi sts of 3 bit s 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 ma king the entir e p ac ket long er by 4 octet s. All of the information originally contained in the packet is retained.

Port VLAN ID
Packets that are tagged (are carrying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compli ant 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 w hich they wer e received. F orw arding dec isions are base d upon t his PVI D, in so far a s VLAN ar e conce rned . Tagged packets are forwarded according to the VID contained within the tag. Tagged 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 ta ble to re late PVID w ithin t he sw itch t o VID o n the ne tw ork. T he switch w ill compar e the V I D 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 packe t s a nd t he V ID for tagged p ackets, tag-awar e 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.
Default VLANs
The Switch initially con figures one VLAN, VID = 1, ca lle d "default." The factory defaul t s etti ng assigns all ports on t h e Switch to the "default". As new VLAN are configured in Port-based mode, their respective member ports are removed from the "default."
Assigning Ports to VLA Ns
Before enabling VLAN s for the switch, you must fir st assign each port to th e V LAN group(s) in which it will participate . B y d efault all ports are assigned to VLAN 1 as untagged ports. Add a port as a tagged port if you want it to carry traffic for one or more VLANs, and any intermediat e netw ork dev ices or t he host at the oth er end of the co nnectio n supports VLANs. Then assig n port s on the other VLAN-aware network devices along the path that will carry this traffic to the same VLAN(s), either manually or dynamically using GVRP. However, if you want a port on this switch to participate in one or more VLANs, but none of the intermediate network devices nor the host at the other end of the connection supports VLANs, then you should add this port to the VLAN as an untagged port.
VLAN-tagged frames can pass through VLAN-aware or VLAN-unaware network interconnection devices, but the VLAN tags should be stripped off before passing it on to any end-node host that does not support VLAN tagging.

VLAN Classification
When the switch receives a frame, it classifies the frame in one of two ways. If the frame is untagged, the switch assigns the frame to an associated VLAN (based on the default VLAN ID of the receiving port). But if the frame is tagged, the switch uses the tagged VLAN ID to identify the port broadcast domain of the frame.
Port Overlapping
Port overlapping can be used to allow access to commonly shared network resources among different VLAN groups, such as file servers or printers. Note that if you implement VLANs which do not overlap, but still need to communicate, you can connect them by enabled routing on this switch.
Untagged VLANs
Untagged (or static) VLANs are typically used to reduce broadcast traffic and to increase security. A group of network users assigned to a VLAN form a broadcast domain that is separate from other VLANs configured on the switch. Packets are forwarded only between ports that are designated for the same VLAN. Untagged VLANs can be used to manually isolate user groups or subnets.

4.5.3 VLAN Switching

This page is used for configuring the Managed Switch port VLAN. The VLAN per Port Configuration page contains fields for managing ports that are part of a VLAN.
Understand nomenclature of the Switch
IEEE 802.1Q Tagged and Untagged
Every port on an 802.1Q compliant switch can be configured as ta gged or untagged.
Tagged: header of all packets that flow into those por ts. If a packet h as prev
tag can then be used by other 802.1Q compliant devices on the network to make packet-forwarding decisions.
Untagged:
Ports with untagging enabled will strip the 802.1Q tag from all packets that flow into those ports. If the packet doesn't have an 802.1Q VLAN tag, the port will not alter the packet. Thus, all packets received by and forwarded by an untagging port will have no 802.1Q VLAN information. (Remember that the PVID is only used internally within the Switch). Untagging is used to send packets from an 802.1Q-compliant network device to a non-compliant network device.
