Terminology
Refer to this table for terms used in this publication.
Table 1 - Managed Switch Terminology
Term Description
1783-EMS All references to 1783-EMS in this manual refer to catalog numbers 1783-EMS04T and 1783-EMS08T.
Auto-MDIX Automatic Medium-dependent Interface Crossover.
Allows the switch to detect the required cable type (straight-through or crossover) for copper Ethernet connections and configures the interfaces
accordingly.
BOOTP Commonly used with Allen-Bradley Ethernet products, the BOOTP protocol is used by a client machine to locate its IP address and network mask.
DHCP Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol.
A network protocol that is used to configure devices, so that they can communicate on an IP network. A client machine uses this protocol to acquire
configuration information, such as an IP address and default gateway, from a server running the protocol. The client then uses this information to
configure itself.
DNS Domain Name Server.
Translates domain names into IP addresses, for example, www.example.com can translate to 192.168.100.100.
Domain A group of computers and devices on a network that are controlled as a unit with common rules and procedures.
IGMP Internet Group Management Protocol.
A protocol that manages how adapters and other components join and leave multicast groups. IGMP snooping is a feature of IGMP that allows Ethernet
switches to look (snoop) inside packets to determine which destinations really need to receive the data.
QoS Quality of service.
A method of managing network resources through the classification of Ethernet traffic into high and low priority queues.
SMS Short Message Service.
A communication service that allows text messaging between mobile phones.
SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol.
A protocol that exchanges messages with devices on a network for the purpose of monitoring the devices.SNMP enables a switch to be remotely
managed through other network management software.
Spanning Tree Refers to Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) or Spanning Tree Protocol (STP).
Used with network topologies that provide more than one physical path between two devices, spanning tree protocol manages path redundancies
while preventing undesirable loops in the network. If a fault should occur on an active port, the switch will begin transmitting out one of the blocked
ports.
TCP Transmission Control Protocol.
TCP enables two hosts to establish a connection and exchange streams of data.
TCP guarantees delivery of data and also guarantees that packets are delivered in the same order in which they were sent.
UDP User Datagram Protocol.
This protocol offers a minimal transport service. UDP is used by applications that do not require the level of service of TCP or use communication
services (for example, multicast or broadcast delivery) not available from TCP.
An application program running over UDP must deal directly with end-to-end communication anomalies that a connection-oriented protocol wo uld
have handled - for example, retransmission for reliable delivery, packetization and reassembly, flow control, and congestion avoidance, when these are
required .
This is commonly seen with I/O type devices that send out information at an RPI rate.
VLAN Virtual local-area network.
A logical segment of network users and resources grouped by function, team, or application. This segmentation is without regard to the physical
location of the users and resources.

4. Type your new IP address.
5. Change the subnet mask and default gateway, if needed.
6. Turn off BOOTP Client to prevent dynamic IP address assignment.
If using host names on the network, Name Resolution must be turned on
and the DNS server addresses must be configured (usually required if using
the email function).
7. Click Apply Changes to change the IP and subnet.
The switch does not load the new IP and subnet address until
power is cycled.
8. Cycle power.
Once the IP and subnet are changed, you must cycle power to load the new
address. Power can be cycled remotely through the management interface
by expanding the Diagnostics folder and clicking Controller Restart. This
restarts the 1783-EMS switch and does not restart the controller. All
communication through the switch is interrupted.

Basic Configuration Chapter 1
IMPORTANT
Set the IP Address with BOOTP
Set Security
The 1783-EMS switch ships with the BOOTP client enabled by default. To
assign an address, use this procedure.
1. Put the switch on a network with a BOOTP server.
2. Cycle power to the switch.
The 1783-EMS switch attempts to obtain an IP address several times from
the server before timing out and defaulting to the factory preset address of
192.168.1.1.
The MAC address of the switch is on the home page.
192.168.1.1 could interfere with another device on the network.
We recommend changing the administrator and read-only password before you
place the switch in service.
The administrator password is used for the management interface (HTTP
session), Telnet, and the FTP interface (used to upgrade the firmware). The user
name is verified for the FTP session only. The user name for the HTTP session is

Network Services Setup
This chapter covers information related to network services setup using the
switch’s web interface, including how to configure these protocols:
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
• Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
• Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)
For information about how to access the web interface for the switch, refer to
Chapter 1
.
SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) specifies the diagnostic data
that a host computer must maintain for network management software. Hosts
typically keep statistics on the status of their network interfaces, incoming and
outgoing traffic, dropped datagrams, and error messages generated. Network
management protocols let network management software access these statistics.
SNMP is based on three concepts:
• SNMP managers, also known as client software or SNMP browsers
• SNMP agents, also known as network devices or SNMP servers
• Management Information Base (MIB)
The SNMP manager runs SNMP management software. Network devices to be
managed, such as bridges, routers, servers, and workstations, have an agent
software module. The agent provides access to a local MIB of objects that reflects
the resources and activity of the device. The agent also responds to manager
commands to retrieve values from the MIB. The agent and the MIB are on the
switch. To configure SNMP on the switch, you define the relationship between
the manager and the agent.
The Stratix 6000 switch supports SNMP versions 1 and 2.
• SNMP versions 1 and 2 are generally used for network monitoring
without network control.
• The supported versions use a community-based form of security. SNMP
managers can access the agent MIB through passwords referred to as
community names.
• The Stratix 6000 switch automatically recognizes the SNMP version from
an incoming request, but you must manually set the version for SNMP
trap destinations, as described on page 24
.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1783-UM001D-EN-P - January 2013 21

SNMP Configuration
Enable SNMP if you want to run SNMP on your network. SNMP is disabled by
default.
Before configuring SNMP settings, understand these concepts:
• Community names—Community names are passwords to the switch
Management Information Base (MIB) that allow a remote manager readonly or read-write access to the switch. The Stratix 6000 switch supports
one read-only community name and one read-write community name.
You can change the default names.
• SNMP traps—SNMP traps are unsoliticited messages sent to a remote
manager from an agent. Traps are an efficient way to inform managers that
are connected to a large number of devices with many objects. By
providing unsolicited messaging, traps can reduce SNMP polling by a
manager. The Stratix 6000 switch supports two destination traps that can
be enabled or disabled. By default, both traps are disabled.
Use these steps to configure SNMP.
1. From the navigation pane, expand the Network Services Setup folder and
select SNMP Configuration.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1783-UM001D-EN-P - January 2013 23
Chapter 2 Network Services Setup
2. From the SNMP Enabled pull-down menu, choose Enabled to use SNMP.
3. Change the deault case-sensitive community names if desired.
• The read-only community enables the switch to validate Get (read-
only) requests from a network management station. If you set the
SNMP read community, users can access MIB objects, but cannot
change them.
• The read-write community enables the switch to validate Set (readwrite) requests from a network management station.
4. In the System Info area, provide optional information about the switch for
informational purposes only.
a. In the Location field, type the physical location of the switch, such as
the building where the switch is locatd.
b. In the Contact field, type the switch name or network administrator.
5. Identify up to two trap destinations by completing the fields below.
Trap Destination Field Description
Enabled Check to enable trap messages to be sent.
IP Address Type the IP address of the SNMP trap recipient.
Port Type the UDP port number to which traps will be sent.
The default port number is 162.
Community Type the read-only or read-write SNMP community name to be used in
SNMP Version Choose the SNMP version to use.
traps sent to the destination.
Community names are case-sensitive.
6. Click Apply Changes.
The changes will take effect immediately without requiring you to cycle
power to the switch.

Network Services Setup Chapter 2
IGMP
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping sorts multicasting
devices into groups. This limits the multicast packets received by hosts that do
not need the information and makes the network more efficient and
deterministic.
Option Description
Broadcast Without IGMP snooping, an I/O module acts like a broadcasting device and all
devices on the subnet are flooded with I/O traffic.
Multicast IGMP snooping filters the I/O traffic from devices that are not in the intended
multicast group.
Unicast A message instruction from one Logix controller to another is an example of
unicast; it contains one source and one destination address.
By default, IGMP is disabled. Enable IGMP snooping when I/O is running on
your network. IGMP helps to isolate this UDP traffic to ports that need to
receive it. When it is not used, other devices may be slowed down by the
continuous flow of UDP packets.
IGMP Product Support
Rockwell Automation products support IGMP, version 2.
When using the Logix Designer application to configure your switch, consider
the following:
• Settings on the IGMP page in the Add-on Profile overwrite settings made
on the web management interface.
• If you are scanning the 1783-EMS switch with the Logix Designer
application, use the IGMP page in the Add-on Profile to configure IGMP
to avoid confusion. See Appendix E
The switch manages a report of IGMP information, including multicast groups,
querier information, and IGMP states per virtual local-area network (VLAN).
The report is available through the web interface. For more information about
this report, refer to IGMP Report
on page 45.

Chapter 2 Network Services Setup
IGMP Querier
The IGMP querier function can be enabled to query your network for group
information at a specified time interval. The configuration options available for
IGMP querier depend on whether VLANs are enabled on your network.
• If you plan to use VLANs on your network, the IGMP querier function
can be enabled for only one VLAN per switch. The IP address of the
querier may be different on each VLAN.
You can choose to assign the querier to the management VLAN or a
custom VLAN. The querier is assigned to the management VLAN by
default.
– If the querier is assigned to the management VLAN, the querier IP
address is the IP address defined on the Network Configuration tab, as
described in Set the IP Address
– If you want to assign the querier to a custom VLAN, you must first set
up the custom VLAN on the VLAN Configuration tab, as described in
VLAN Configuration
on page 57. Assigning the querier to a custom
VLAN requires you to know which IP address you want to assign to the
querier.
• If you do not plan to use VLANs on your network, you can enable or
disable a single querier instance on the network. The querier function is
enabled by default. If more than one querier instance is detected on the
network, only the querier with the lowest IP address is active. All other
queriers are silent.

default setting. For more information about setting up the management
VLAN, refer to VLAN Configuration
on page 57.
• Enabled on Custom VLAN—The IGMP querier function is enabled
and assigned to a custom VLAN. If you choose this option, you must
also specify the querier VLAN and IP address as described in step 6
5. In the Querier Period field, specify a time interval in minutes, 1…60, to
determine how often your network is queried for group information.
The default querier period is 2 minutes.

TIP
7. In the Router Ports Configuration area, choose the methods to use for
detecting when a multicast router is connected to a switch port.
When a multicast router, including IGMP querier, is connected to a switch
port, all multicast packets and IGMP reports are forwarded on that port.
This behavior is important for the proper functioning of IGMP snooping.
You can enable one or both of the following options:
• Autodetect—Accept the default setting of Enabled if you want the
switch to automatically determine whether an end station or multicast
router is connected to its ports. To determine which type of device is
connected to a port, the switch uses Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP)
or Multicast Router Discovery (MRD).
• Manual—Enable this setting if you need to connect a switch from a
different vendor that does not support CDP or MRD protocols. When
you enable the Manual setting, a series of checkboxes appears, so you
can specify which ports will be connected to a router that does not
support CDP or MRD protocols.
8. From the Multicast Packets Forwarding pull-down menu, choose where to
forward multicast packets.
• To Listeners Only—The switch forwards multicast packets to ports in
the Listening state only.
• To Listeners and Uplink Port—The switch forwards multicast packets
to ports in the Listening state and the uplink port. This is the default
setting.
This setting is useful if you need to route multicast packets between
two networks.
• To Listeners and All Snooper Ports (Standard)—The switch forwards
multicast packets to ports in the Listening state and to all multicast
routers, or snoopers. Use this setting if you want multicast traffic to be
filtered only on ports where end stations are connected and not
between switches.
9. From the Uplink Port pull-down menu, choose Autodetect (Querier) if
you want the Stratix 6000 switch to automatically determine the uplink
port. Otherwise, set the uplink port manually by choosing a specific port.
10. Click Apply Changes.
The changes will take effect immediately without requiring you to cycle
power to the switch.
