1. Introduction
FMX-24NZ switch is a high performance web-managed SNMP Layer 2 switch that provides users
with 24 10/100Mbps Ethernet and 2 1000Mbps Gigabit ports (optional). This Switch has SNMP
management and remote control capabilities such as “Web Cluster”. The Gigabit module, which can
be copper or fiber media, supports 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-LX or 1000BASE-T, allowing users
to increase their network response time at gigabit speeds and with great flexibility. A RS-232 serial
port provides an easy way for installation and initial set-up.
Non-blocking and maximum wire speed performances are designed on all ports. The Switch not only
supports Auto-Negotiation, but also Auto-MDIX function on all switched 24 10/100M RJ-45 ports
and two Gigabit Copper ports in both half or full duplex mode. The Auto-MDIX function makes it
convenient for the user, because it eliminates cabling on straight-line or cross-line issues.
FMX-24NZ switch provides a convenient way to operate layer 2 management through the browser.
The User-friendly drop-down menu allows the user to easily learn, control and monitor. It supports
not only traditional SNMP function, but also RMON 1,2,3,9 groups for advanced network analysis. A
new management tool called “Single IP” is implemented here to provide the administrator an access
right to enter private IP domain through a single real IP. By this management tool, network manager
can remotely control his far-side servers in private IP domain without being there.
The Switch also supports both port-based VLAN and Tag-based. To increase bandwidth application,
it supports 7 groups with up to 4 ports Trunk, and moreover, these trunk ports provide fair-over
function to provide back up when one or more ports malfunction.
Totally front access design and full LED status display ease user’s installation and inspection and
maintenance efforts at rack mount environments. The extra LED display reflecting the fan status
allows for quick diagnosis of over-heat issues.

1.1 Unpacking
Open the shipping carton of the Switch and carefully unpack its contents, the carton should contain
the following items:
z One FMX-24NZ, 24 port Fast Ethernet Layer 2 Switch. z Mounting Kit: 2 mounting brackets and screws z Four rubber feet with adhesive backing. z One AC power cord. z One RS-232 cable z This User’s Guide (CD-ROM).
1.2 Installation
You can use the following guidelines when choosing a place to install the Switch.
z The surface must support at 3 kg. Do not place heavy object on the Switch. z Visually inspect the power cord and AC power connector. z Make sure that there is proper heat dissipation form and adequate ventilation around the Switch.
Desktop or Shelf Installation:
When installing the Switch on the desktop of shelf, the rubber feet included with the device should
first be attached. Attach these cushioning feet on the bottom at each corner of the device. Allow
adequate space for ventilation between the device and the objects around it.
Rack Installation:
The FMX-24NZ switch can be mounted in an ELA standard-sized, 19-inch rack, which can be placed
in a wiring closet with other equipment. To install, attach the mounting brackets on the switch side
panels (one on each side) and secure them with the screws provided. Then, use the screws provided
with the equipment rack to mount the switch on the rack.

Power on:
The FMX-24NZ switch can be used with an AC power supply 90-260V AC, 50-60Hz. The AC power
connector is located at the rear of the unit. The switch’s power supply will adjust to the local power
source automatically and may be turned on without having any or all LAN segment cables connected.
After the power switch is turned on, the LED indicators should respond as fallows:
z All LED indicators will momentarily blink. This blinking of the LED indicators represents a
reset of the system.
z The power LED indicator will blink while the Switch loads onboard software and performs a
self-test. After approximately 20 seconds, the LED will light again to indicate the switch is in a
ready state.
z The Speed, Link/Activity LED indicator may remain ON or OFF depending on every port’s
situation.
z The fan LED will be vanished if fan works normally, or LED goes RED if fan stop
or failed.

1.3 Initial set up for management
There are two management ways can be chosen, one is out-of-band management, you work this way
with a PC and connect your PC and switch through RS232 cable. The other way is
in-band-management, you also work with a PC but connect your PC and switch through Ethernet
network no matter local or remotely, or simply directly connect your PC and switch through an
Ethernet cable. Before you activate the management function with the Switch, you have to read the
instructions below carefully and do some proper setting to insure you can access the switch through
your PC, then the switch devices will be replied or responded correctly as you wish.
1.3.1 out-of-band Terminal-mode Management
First, turn on your PC and execute with terminal mode program, such as, if you are in Microsoft
Window environment, you may choose “super terminal “from programs that are listed for
communication. Then follow the steps below:
Step 1: Set Hyper Terminal parameters on your PC
Bits Rate per second = 9600
Parity = None
Data Bits = 8
Stop Bit = 1
Flow Control = None
Step 2:
After setting the above on the PC, then connect your switch device with RS-232 cable, then type the
“enter” key, then, the device will response the Main Menu to you and ask you to input the username
and password. The default username is “admin” and the password is “0000” for default. To know
more about operation in this mode, please refer the instructions in chapter 4 of this manual to perform
all function you want.
Page 9
- 9 -
1.3.2 In-band management through Ethernet
In addition to terminal mode operation, FMX-24NZ switch also supports in-band management
through browser, this function is much more user-friendly than terminal mode, because it can be
operated through mouse on the PC screen and moreover it can be performed either locally or remotely
through Ethernet.
Before you can access the switch, you have to know following things.
First you have to know the IP Address and Subnet Mask of both your switch and your PC. The
default value of the IP Address and Subnet Mask within the switch can be got through terminal
mode operation described in chapter 4, while the IP Address and Subnet Mask of PC can be found
in your PC system.
Second, in general, within a network, the members in the same network domain must have the same
Subnet IP unless there are routers between them, or, members in the same network domain can’t talk
to each others, so make sure the communication members in the same domain must have
different IP Addresses and same Subnet Mask.
Third, If there is a DHCP server in the network domain, be sure to enable the DHCP function both
on your PC and the switch, then save the setting and reboot the switch again (power-off-and–on once),
DHCP server and its protocol will automatically assign IP address and related IP Subnet Mask and
Default gateway, under this condition, you can execute your browser program in your PC and simply
Page 10
- 10 -
type http:// IP-Address-of-switch to access the switch through Ethernet or over internet. But if
there is no DHCP in the network, then you must follow the steps instructed below:
When there is no DHCP server in your network domain, according to the concept described above,
you must modify either the PC side or switch side to match the rule “the communication members
in the same domain must have different IP Addresses and same Subnet Mask. “, below, we try to
state the steps if we modify the content of IP configuration within the switch to match the domain
requirement of the PC:
Step 1: Get the IP configuration information in your PC
Step 2: Get IP configuration value used for switch from your network manager.
Get an IP Address for your switch, get IP Subnet Mask, and get default gateway IP address (if needed)
from your network manager.
Step 3: Modify the IP configuration value within the switch to match the rule
In the step 3, you must use the data that get from step 2 to modify the default value within the switch,
to achieve this, use terminal mode operation mentioned in 1.3.1. After modifying the IP address,
Subnet Mask, Default Gateway in the switch, then save the setting and execute the browser program
with http:// IP_Address_ of_ switch, then you may access the switch with following dialogue below.
Then type user name and password to get further service. To find out more operation in this mode,
please refer the instructions in chapter 3 of this manual to perform all function you want.
Page 11
- 11 -
1.3.3 Telnet management
In addition to local terminal mode operation, FMX-24NZ switch supports remote management
through Telnet over network or even over internet for that environment without browser. In this mode,
user also has to do the same setting as required in in-band management to the IP Configuration before
executing the Telnet program. Again, after proper setting to the switch, save the setting and connect
your Ethernet cable from your PC to any port of the Ethernet Switch, then you can simply typing as
following at the command line to access the switch:
Telnet IP_Address_of_Switch
The following dialogue below appears. Type user name and password to get further service. To find
out more operation in this mode, please refer the instructions in chapter 3 of this manual to perform
all function you want.

1.4 LED indicators information
There are many LEDs on the front panel of switch, after the power on, these LEDs will reflect the
current status truly within the switch, we explain below:
There is one power LED on the left side of front panel, whenever power is applied, it lights with
green, below it, there is Diagnostic LED, it will go blinking during the power-on diagnostics. There
are two more FAN status LEDs aside the power LEDs, the upper one indicate the left fan status inside
the switch, it vanishes when fan works normally, and will goes RED while fan is stop or with
malfunction, the lower one indicates the same for the fan at right side within the switch.
Each RJ-45 of 10/100M is with two LEDs built-in on its upper corner, left one indicates link status
and activity, while the right one indicates the speed information.
Each RJ-45 of 10/100/1000M for gigabit module (optional) is somewhat different. Upper yellow LED
indicates for 10M LINK, middle green LED indicates for 100M LINK, but for 1000M, or Gigabit,
both upper and middle LEDs are lit when gigabit port is link with other Gigabit port.

2.5.2 Switch Setting
2.5.2.1 Advanced
Miscellaneous Setting:
MAC Address Age-out Time: Type the number of seconds that an inactive MAC address remains in the
switch's address table. The valid range is 300~765 seconds. Default is 300 seconds.
Max bridge transit delay bound control: Limit the packets queuing time in switch. If enable, the
packets queued exceed will be drop. These valid values are 1sec, 2 sec, and 4 sec and off. Default is 1
seconds.
NOTE: Make sure of “Max bridge transit delay bound control” is enabled before enable Delay Bound,
because Enable Delay Bound must be work under “Max bridge transit delay bound control is enabled”
situation.
Page 21
- 21 -
Broadcast Storm Filter: To configure broadcast storm control, enable it and set the upper threshold for
individual ports. The threshold is the percentage of the port's total bandwidth used by broadcast traffic.
When broadcast traffic for a port rises above the threshold you set, broadcast storm control becomes
active. The valid threshold value is 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and off.
Priority Queue Service settings:
First Come, First Serve: The sequence of packets sent is depending on arrive orders.
All High before Low: The high priority packets sent before low priority packets.
WRR: Weighted Round Robin. Select the preference given to packets in the switch's high-priority
queue. These options represent the number of high priority packets sent before one low priority packet is sent. For example, 5 High:2 Low means that the switch sends 5 high-priority
packets before sending 2 low- priority packets.
Enable Delay Bound: Limit the low priority packets queuing time in switch. Default Max Delay
Time is 255ms. If the low priority packet stays in switch exceed Max Delay
Time, it will be sent. The valid range is 1-255ms.
Qos Policy: High Priority Levels: 0~7 priority level can map to high or low queue.

2.5.5 Trunking
The Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging
information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach
agreement on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group to which the link belongs, move the link to that
Link Aggregation Group, and enable its transmission and reception functions in an orderly manner. In
conclusion, Link aggregation lets you group up to eight consecutive ports into a single dedicated
connection. This feature can expand bandwidth to a device on the network. LACP operation requires
full-duplex mode, more detail information refers to IEEE 802.3ad
2.5.5.1 Aggregator setting
1. System Priority: A value used to identify the active LACP. The switch with the lowest value has the
highest priority and is selected as the active LACP. Valid value is 1~65535.
2. Group ID: There are seven trunk groups to provide configure. Choose the "group id" and click
"Get".
3. LACP: If enable, the group is LACP static trunking group. If disable, the group is local static
trunking group. All ports support LACP dynamic trunking group. If connecting to the device that also
Page 27
- 27 -
supports LACP, the LACP dynamic trunking group will be created automatically.
4. Work ports: Allow max four ports can be aggregated at the same time. If LACP static trunking
group, the exceed ports is standby and able to aggregate if work ports fail. If local static trunking
group, the number must be as same as the group member ports.
5. Select the ports to join the trunking group. Allow max four ports can be aggregated at the same time.
6. If LACP enable, you can configure LACP Active/Passive status in each port on State Activity page.
7. Click Apply.
2.5.5.2 Aggregator Information
When you are setting LACP aggregator, you can see relation information in here.
1. This page is no group active. LACP don’t working.
2. This page is Static Trunking groups.
3. This page is Actor and Partner trunking one group.
Page 28
- 28 -
2.5.5.3 State Activity
Active (select): The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets.
N/A (no select): The port does not automatically sends LACP protocol packets, and responds only if it
receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device.
1. A link that has either two active LACP ports or one active port can perform dynamic LACP trunking.
A link has two N/A LACP ports will not perform dynamic LACP trunking because both ports are
waiting for and LACP protocol packet from the opposite device.
2. If you are active LACP’s actor, when you are select trunking port, the active status will be created
automatically.

2.5.6 IGMP and MAC Filter
2.5.6.1. IGMP Snooping
The FMX-24NZ switch supports multicast IP. One can enable IGMP protocol on this web page, and then
display the IGMP snooping information on this page. There are all multicast groups, VIDs and member
ports in the list. IP multicast addresses range from 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255.
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is an internal protocol of the Internet Protocol (IP)
suite.
IGMP can manage the multicast traffic if the members (switches, router or other network devices) of
group support IGMP. With IGMP enable, the member ports will detect IGMP queries, report packets and
manage the IP multicast traffic through the switch.
IGMP have three fundamental types of message as follows:
Message Description
Query

2.5.6.2. Static MAC Address
When you add a static MAC address, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether the
device is physically connected to the switch. This saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's
MAC address when the disconnected or powered-off device is active on the network again.
1. At the main menu, click administrator ÆFilter Database ÆStatic MAC Address.
2. In the MAC address box, enter the MAC address to and from which the port should permanently
forward traffic, regardless of the device’s network activity.
3. In the Port Number box, enter a port number.
4. If tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLANs are set up on the switch, static addresses are associated with
individual VLANs. Type the VID (tag-based VLANs) to associate with the MAC address.
5. Click the Add.
6. Click the “Prev 50” will list the previous 50 MAC addresses.

2.5.7. VLAN configuration
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that limits the broadcast domain. It allows you to
isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members.
Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network
devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plug into the same switch
physically.
The FMX-24NZ switch supports port-based, 802.1Q (tagged-based) and protocol-base VLAN in web
management page. In the default configuration, VLAN support is disabling.
Support Port-based VLAN
Packets can only be broadcast among members of the same VLAN group. Note all unselected ports are
treated as belonging to another single VLAN. If the port-based VLAN enabled, the VLAN-tagging is
ignored.
Page 33
- 33 -
Support Tag-based VLAN (IEEE 802.1Q VLAN)
Tagged-based VLAN is an IEEE 802.1Q specification standard. Therefore, it is possible to create a
VLAN across devices from different switch venders. IEEE 802.1Q VLAN uses a technique to insert a
“tag” into the Ethernet frames. Tag contains a VLAN Identifier (VID) that indicates the VLAN numbers.
Support Protocol-based VLAN
In order for an end station to send packets to different VLANs, it itself has to be either capable of tagging
packets it sends with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN-aware bridge that is capable of classifying and
tagging the packet with different VLAN ID based on not only default PVID but also other information
about the packet, such as the protocol.
FMX-24NZ switch will support protocol-based VLAN classification by means of both built-in
knowledge of layer 2 packet formats used by selected popular protocols, such as Novell IPX and
AppleTalk’s Ether Talk, and some degree of programmable protocol matching capability.

2.5.7.2. 802.1Q VLAN
This page, user can create Tag-based VLAN, and enable or disable GVRP protocol.
There are 256 VLAN groups to provide configure. Enable 802.1Q VLAN, the all ports on the switch
belong to default VLAN, VID is 1. The default VLAN can’t be deleted.
GVRP (GARP [Generic Attribute Registration Protocol] VLAN Registration Protocol)
GVRP allows automatic VLAN configuration between the switch and nodes. If the switch is
connected to a device with GVRP enabled, you can send a GVRP request using the VID of a VLAN
defined on the switch, the switch will automatically add that device to the existing VLAN.

◆Basic
Create a VLAN and add tagged member ports to it.
1. From the main menu, click Administrator ÆVLAN configuration, click Add then you will see the
page as follow.
2. Type a name for the new VLAN.
3. Type a VID (between 2-4094). The default is 1.
4. Choose the protocol type.
We support 802.1v with the implementation of Port-and-Protocol-based VLAN classification.
User can combine the field “Protocol Vlan” and the field of the port number to form a new
VLAN group.
NOTE:
IEEE 802.1v provides user to classify the packet through untagged port. There are two possible
strategies of the 802.1v supporting: Port-based VLAN and Port-and-Protocol-based VLAN. We
can support both Port-based VLAN and Port-and-Protocol-based VLAN with our product. User
set the VID to mark the packet from untagged port. Then, the packet can be scheduled by the way
of the IEEE 802.1q.
Page 37

◆Port VID
Configure port VID settings
From the main Tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLAN page, click Port VID Settings.
Port VID (PVID)
Set the port VLAN ID that will be assigned to untagged traffic on a given port. This feature is useful
for accommodating devices that you want to participate in the VLAN but that don’t support tagging.
FMX-24NZ switch each port allows user to set one PVID, the range is 1~255, default PVID is 1. The
PVID must as same as the VLAN ID that the port belong to VLAN group, or the untagged traffic will
be dropped.
Ingress Filtering
Ingress filtering lets frames belonging to a specific VLAN to be forwarded if the port belongs to that
VLAN. FMX-24NZ switch has two ingress filtering rule as follows:
Ingress Filtering Rule 1: A forward only packet with VID matching this port’s configured VID.
Ingress Filtering Rule 2: Drop Untagged Frame.
