1.2 Product Description
Cost-effective 10Gbps Uplink Capacitated Managed Switch Solution for SMB
The XGSW-28040 is PLANET’s first Layer 2 IPv6 / IPv4 management Gigabit switch built in with four 10Gbps uplink slots to
greatly support SMB network achieve 10Gbps high performance in a cost-effective way because 10GbE interface usually could
be available in Layer 3 Switch but Layer 3 Switch could be too expensive to SMB. The four 10Gbps interface in the
XGSW-28040 is 10G SFP+ that is in the same size as commonly seen Gigabit SFP slot and also is the main standard for
10Gbps transceiver. The XGSW-28040 can work with PLANET ENW-9800 series or the third brand 10Gbps server adapter to
help SMB build up 10Gbps Ethernet network providing 10Gbps NAS (Network Attached Storage) or heavy transmission of video
streaming service at affordable price. Each of the SFP+ slot supports Dual-Speed, 10GBase-SR/LR or 1000Base-SX / LX; that
means, the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP/SFP+ transceiver according to not only the transmission
distance but also the transmission speed required.
Cost-effective IPv6 Managed Gigabit Switch Solution for SMB
Nowadays, lots of electronic products or mobile devices can browse the Internet, which means the need of IP Address
increases. However, the current IPv4 network infrastructure is not capable enough to provide IP Address to each single users /
20
User’s Manual of XGSW-28040
Clients. The situation forces the ISP to build up the IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6) network infrastructure speedily. To fulfill
the demand, PLANET releases the IPv6 management Gigabit Ethernet Switch, the XGSW-28040 which supports both IPv4
and IPv6 management functions. It can work with original network structure (IPv4) and also support the new network structure
(IPv6) in the future. With easy and friendly management interfaces and plenty of management functions included, the
XGSW-28040 is the best choice for ISP to build the IPv6 FTTx edge service and for SMB to connect with the IPv6 network.
High Performance
The XGSW-28040 provides 24 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet ports with 4 shared 100/1000X SFP slots + 4 10G/1G SFP+
slot. It boasts high performance architecture of switch that is capable for providing the non-blocking switch fabric and wire-speed
throughput as high as 128Gbps, which greatly simplifies the tasks of upgrading the LAN for catering to increasing bandwidth
demands.
Robust Layer 2 Features
The XGSW-28040 can be programmed for advanced switch management functions such as dynamic Port link aggregation,
Q-in-Q VLAN, private VLAN, Rapid Spanning Tree protocol, Layer 2 to Layer 4 QoS, bandwidth control and IGMP Snooping.
The XGSW-28040 provides 802.1Q Tagged VLAN, and the VLAN groups allowed will be maximally up to 255. Via aggregation
of supporting ports, the XGSW-28040 allows the operation of a high-speed trunk combining multiple ports. It enables maximum
up to 14 groups of 16 ports for trunking, and supports fail-over as well.
Excellent Traffic Control
The XGSW-28040 is loaded with powerful traffic management and QoS features to enhance services offered by telecoms. The
functionality includes QoS features such as wire-speed Layer 4 traffic classifiers and bandwidth limiting that are particular useful
for multi-tenant unit, multi business unit, Telco, or Network Service Provide applications. It also empowers the enterprises to
take full advantages of the limited network resources and guarantees the best performance in VoIP and Video conferencing
transmission.
Efficient Management
For efficient management, the XGSW-28040 Managed Ethernet Switch is equipped with console, WEB and SNMP
management interfaces. With the built-in Web-based management interface, the PLANET XGSW-28040 offers an easy-to-use,
platform-independent management and configuration facility. The XGSW-28040 supports standard Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) and can be managed via any standard-based management software. For text-based
management, the XGSW-28040 can be accessed via Telnet and the console port. Moreover, the XGSW-28040 offers secure
remote management by supporting SNMPv3 connection which encrypts the packet content at each session.
Powerful Security
PLANET XGSW-28040 offers comprehensive Layer 2 to Layer 4 Access Control List (ACL) for enforcing security to the edge. It
can be used to restrict network access by denying packets based on source and destination IP address, TCP/UDP ports or
defined typical network applications. Its protection mechanism also comprises of 802.1x port-based and MAC-based user and
device authentication. With the private VLAN function, communication between edge ports can be prevented to ensure user
privacy. The network administrators can now construct highly secured corporate networks with considerably less time and effort
than before.
Flexibility and Extension Solution
The four mini-GBIC SFP slots built in the XGSW-28040 support Dual-Speed, 100Base-FX and 1000Base-SX/LX SFP (Small
Form-factor Pluggable) fiber-optic modules, that means, the administrator now can flexibly choose the suitable SFP transceiver
according to not only the transmission distance but also the transmission speed required. The distance can be extended from
550 meters (Multi-Mode fiber) up to above 10/50/70/120 kilometers (Single-Mode fiber or WDM fiber). They are well suited for

2.2.3 Installing the SFP / SFP+ transceiver
The sections describe how to insert an SFP / SFP+ transceiver into an SFP / SFP+ slot.
The SFP /SFP+ transceivers are hot-pluggable and hot-swappable. You can plug-in and out the transceiver to/from any SFP /
SFP+ port without having to power down the Managed Switch. As the Figure 2-8 appears.
Figure 2-8 Plug-in the SFP / SFP+ transceiver
Approved PLANET SFP / SFP+ Transceivers
PLANET Managed Switch supports both Single mode and Multi-mode SFP / SFP+ transceiver. The following list of approved
PLANET SFP / SFP+ transceivers is correct at the time of publication:
1. It recommends using PLANET SFP / SFP+s on the Managed Switch. If you insert a SFP / SFP+
transceiver that is not supported, the Managed Switch will not recognize it.
2. Port 25 to Port 28 are SFP+ slots that support 10G SFP+ transceiver & Gigabit SFP transceiver.
3. Port 22 to Port 24 are shared SFP slot that support Gigabit & Fast Ethernet SFP transceiver.
In the installation steps below, this Manual use Gigabit SFP transceiver as the example. However,
the steps for Fast Ethernet SFP & 10G SFP+ transceiver are similar.
1. Make sure both side of the SFP transceiver are with the same media type, for example: 1000Base-SX to 1000Base-SX,
1000Bas-LX to 1000Base-LX.
2. Check the fiber-optic cable type match the SFP transceiver model.
To connect to 1000Base-SX SFP transceiver, use the Multi-mode fiber cable- with one side must be male duplex LC
connector type.
To connect to 1000Base-LX SFP transceiver, use the Single-mode fiber cable-with one side must be male duplex LC
connector type.
Conn ect the fiber cable
1. Attach the duplex LC connector on the network cable into 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 Managed Switch. Ensure that the SFP transceiver is operating
correctly.
4. Check the Link mode of the SFP port if the link failed. Co works with some fiber-NICs or Media Converters, set the Link
mode to “1000 Force” or “100 Force” is needed.
Remove the transceiver module
1. Make sure there is no network activity by consult or check with the network administrator. Or through the management
36
interface of the switch/converter (if available) to disable the port in advance.
2. Remove the Fiber Optic Cable gently.
3. Turn the handle of the MGB module to horizontal.
4. Pull out the module gently through the handle.

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 administration 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 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 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.
39
User’s Manual of XGSW-28040
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 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 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. After you set up your IP address for the switch, you 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 parameters from one central location,
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.

User’s Manual of XGSW-28040
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 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 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 default IP address of the 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.
