2.1 Product Description
The PLANET GSD-800S provides 8 Gigabit Ethernet Switch ports. The PLANET GSD-800S
delivers eight ports worth of high-performance, feature-rich integrated Gigabit Ethernet
switching over traditional copper cabling. The GSD-800S is capable of smart functions,
such as VLAN, Port trunking and Prot mirroring. GSD-800S can be congured by out-ofband channel via the console port (RS232) directly. Each port supports 10Mbps, 100Mbps,
and 1000Mbps as well as half/full mode and can be easily connected to corporate
backbones and servers.
2.1.1 Product Overview
PLANET GSD-800S is a gigabit Ethernet switch with 8 RJ-45 10/100/1000 Mbps ports
for high-speed network connectivity. GSD-800S can also automatically identify and
determine the correct transmission speed and half/full duplex mode of the attached
devices with its 8 ports. The Gigabit port can handle large amounts of data transmission
in a secure topology linking to a backbone or high-power servers.
This product also supports store-and-forward forwarding scheme to ensure low latency
and high data integrity, eliminates unnecessary trafc and relieves congestion on critical
network paths. With an intelligent address recognition algorithm, GSD-800S could
recognize up to 8K different MAC address and enables ltering and forwarding at full
wire speed.

3.2 General
3.2.1 Command Hierarchy
The CLI is hierarchical with two levels: a top level and a group level. The group level
consists of the following groups:
● System
● Console
● Port
● MAC
● VLAN
● Aggr
● QoS
● Mirror
● IP
At top level you may enter a command and by giving the full command string, including
group, or you may change context into a group by entering the name of the group.
At group level you may enter commands for the particular group you have chosen
without specifying the group name or you may return to the top level by entering the up
command. The current level and group is indicated by the prompt. If you are at the top
level, the prompt will be:
>
9
11
If you are at group level, the prompt will display the actual group, e.g.
System>
At group level you also have the option of using the slash (/) key to refer to a context
relative to the top level. E.g. you may be in the system group and enter a /console
command into the console group.
3.2.2 Login/Logout Procedures
To get access to the CLI you must login by entering a password. You will automatically
be queried about the password. The password is congurable. The password check may
be disabled by setting the password to an empty string , in which case any password
entered during login will be accepted.
You may logout at any time and at any context level using the exit command.
3.2.3 Help Utility
You may get help by pressing the ? key or entering help. The help info depends on the
context:
● At top level, a list of command groups is displayed.
● At group level, a list of the command syntaxes for the current group is displayed.
● If the help command is issued for a specific command, the command syntax
and a description of the command are shown.
3.2.4 Example
The command hierarchy and the help utility is demonstrated in the following example:
> ? <enter>
Commands at top level:
System – System commands
Console – Console commands
Port – Port commands
MAC - MAC table commands
VLAN – VLAN commands
Aggregation – Aggregation/Trunking commands
QoS – QoS commands
Mirror – Mirror commands
IP – IP commands

3.2.6 Terminology
The following table shows general parameter types used in command syntaxes and
descriptions.
<port> Port identifier: Any number in the range 1-8.
<portlist> Comma and/or dash separated port list. This type can be used
for specifying individual ports or a range of ports. The keyword
none can be used to specify an empty port list. The keyword
all can be used to specify all ports. Example: 1,3,8-12
<macaddress> MAC Address; format: hh-hh-hh-hh-hh-hh , hh:hh:hh:hh:
hh:hh or hhhhhhhhhhhh . The hh is Hexadecimal number in
the range 0x00 to 0xFF. Example: 00-00-24-F1-02-03
11
13
<vid> VLAN ID: Decimal number in the range 1-8. The keyword all
can be used to specify all VLAN IDs.
<vidlist> Comma and/or dash separated VLAN ID list. This type can be
used for specifying individual VLAN IDs or a range of VLAN
IDs. The keyword none can be used to specify an empty
VLAN ID list. Example: 1,2,4-6
<class> Internal class of service.4 queues: low | normal | medium |
high
The <portlist> type is very useful when setting up multiple ports in the same mode. For
example, the following commands will divide the ports into two untagged VLANs:
vlan add 1 1-4
vlan add 2 5-7
vlan pvid 1-4 1
vlan pvid 5-7 2

3.4 Examples
3.4.1 VLAN conguration
This example shows how to congure two VLANs with the following setup on at GSD800S:
● VID 1 spans ports 2-8 and VID 2 spans ports 1-3, so port 2 and 3 are members
of both VLANs.
● Port 1 is the access port for VID 2, so PVID of port 1 must be set to 2.
● Port 2 is the trunk port for VID 1 and VID 2, so the PVID of port 2 must be set
to none and port 2 must be set to accept tagged frames only.
● Port 3 is the hybrid port for VID 1 and VID 2, where VID 1 is the untagged
VLAN, so PVID must be set to 1.
● Ports 4-8 are access ports for VID 1.
The following CLI session does the above setup provided that the initial conguration is
the default conguration:
>vlan
VLAN>delete 1
VLAN>add 1 2-8
VLAN>add 2 1-3
VLAN>pvid 1 2
VLAN>pvid 2 none
VLAN>frame type 2 tagged
VLAN>conf

WEB Interface
From the WEB interface it is possible to, among other things:
● Set port mode.
● Enable/disable flow control.
● Configure simple port-based VLAN.
● Configure aggregation groups
● Configure QoS.
● Read and clear statistics counters.
● Upgrade software
All operations are password protected. The password must be entered at login. The
password is the same as is being used in the command line interface.
As stated in chapter 3 the IP mode is disabled in the factory default conguration.
To be able to use the WEB interface, the IP must be enabled and congured via the
command line interface. The IP address, mask and gateway must be set according to your
environment. Example on enabling the WEB interface via the command line interface:
>ip setup 192.168.0.100 255.255.252.0 192.168.0.254 1
>ip mode enable
4.1 Starting the Web Interface
Follow these steps to bring up the switch Web interface:
1. Enter the IP address of the switch in the Web browser address field.
2. Enter password. The password is the same as the CLI interface. Click on the
Apply button.
3. Make your selection by clicking on the item in menu frame.

SWITCH OPERATION
5.1 Address Table
The Switch is implemented with an address table. This address table 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 in-formation 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
no. And the other related information in address table. This information will be used to
decide either forwarding or ltering 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
lookup 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 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 address table. But, if the destination address is located at the same port
with this packet comes in, then this packet will be ltered. Thereby increasing the network
throughput 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 occurrence, it is the best choice
when a network needs efciency and stability.
The Ethernet Switch scans the destination address from the packet-header, searches the
routing table pro-vided 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. How-ever, the switch is most commonly
used to segment existence hubs, which nearly always improves overall performance. An
Ethernet Switching can be easily congured in any Ethernet network environment to
signicantly boost bandwidth using conventional cabling and adapters.
Due to the learning function of the Ethernet switching, the source address and
corresponding port number of each incoming and outgoing packet are stored in a routing
table. This information is subsequently used to lter packets whose destination address is
on the same segment as the source address. This connes network trafc to its respective
domain and reduce 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.

5.5 Auto-Negotiation
The STP ports on the Switch have built-in “Auto-negotiation”. This technology 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 detect the modes and speeds at
the second of both device is connected and capable of, both 10Base-T and 100Base-TX
devices can connect with the port in either Half- or Full-Duplex mode.
If attached device is: 1000Base-T port will set to:
10Mbps, no auto-negotiation 10Mbps
10Mbps, with auto-negotiation 10/20Mbps (10Base-T/Full-Duplex)
100Mbps, no auto-negotiation 100Mbps
100Mbps, with auto-negotiation 100/200Mbps (100Base-TX/Full-Duplex)
1000Mbps with auto-negotiation 2000Mbps (1000Mbps/Full-Duplex)

TROUBLE SHOOTING
This chapter contains information to help you solve problems. If the Ethernet Switch is not
functioning properly, make sure the Ethernet Switch was 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 Ethernet Switch
Some stations cannot talk to other stations located on the other port
Solution:
Please check the VLAN settings, trunk settings, or port enabled / disabled
status.
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. Please also check the in/out rate of the port.
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 power again

A.2 10/100Mbps, 10/100Base-TX
When connecting your 10/100Mbps Ethernet Switch to another switch, a bridge or a hub,
a straight or crossover cable is necessary. Each port of the Switch supports auto-MDI/
MDI-X detection. That means you can directly connect the Switch to any Ethernet devices
without making a crossover cable. The following table and diagram show the standard
RJ-45 receptacle/ connector and their pin assignments:
