Accessing the Switch Overview
1

Overview

You can access and manage the switch using the GUI (Graphical User Interface, also called web interface in this text) or using the CLI (Command Line Interface). There are equivalent functions in the web interface and the command line interface, while web configuration is easier and more visual than the CLI configuration. You can choose the method according to their available applications and preference.

Web Interface Access

You can access the switch’s web interface through the web-based authentication. The switch uses two built-in web servers, HTTP server and HTTPS server, for user authentication.
The following example shows how to login via the HTTP server.

2.1 Login

To manage your switch through a web browser in the host PC:
1) Make sure that the route between the host PC and the switch is available.
2) Launch a web browser. The supported web browsers include, but are not limited to, the following types:
● IE 8.0, 9.0, 10.0, 11.0
● Firefox 26.0, 27.0
● Chrome 32.0, 33.0
3) Enter the switch’s IP address in the web browser’s address bar. The switch’s default IP address is 192.168.0.1.
Figure 2-1 Enter the switch's IP addresss in the browser
4) Enter the username and password in the pop-up login window. Use admin for both username and password in lower case letters.

Command Line Interface Access

Users can access the switch's command line interface through the console (only for switch with console port), Telnet or SSH connection, and manage the switch with the command
lines.
Console connection requires the host PC connecting to the switch’s console port directly, while Telnet and SSH connection support both local and remote access.
The following table shows the typical applications used in the CLI access.

Physical Interface

1.1 Overview

Interfaces are used to exchange data and interact with interfaces of other network devices. Interfaces are classified into physical interfaces and layer 3 interfaces.
Physical interfaces are the ports on the switch panel. They forward packets based on MAC address table.
Layer 3 interfaces are used to forward IPv4 and IPv6 packets using static or dynamic routing protocols. You can use Layer 3 interfaces for IP routing and inter-VLAN routing.
This chapter introduces the configurations for physical interfaces.

1.2 Supported Features

The switch supports the following features about physical interfaces:
Basic Parameters
You can configure port status, speed mode, duplex mode, flow control and other basic parameters for ports.
Port Isolation
You can use this feature to restrict a specific port to send packets to only the ports in the forwarding port list that you configure.
Loopback Detection
This function allows the switch to detect loops in the network. When a loop is detected on a port or VLAN, the switch will display an alert on the management interface and block the corresponding port or VLAN according to your configurations.

Basic Parameters Configurations

2.1 Using the GUI

Choose the menu L2 FEATURES > Switching > Port > Port Config to load the following page.
Figure 2-1 Configuring Basic Parameters
Follow these steps to configure basic parameters for the ports:
1) Configure the MTU size of jumbo frames for all the ports, then click Apply.
Jumbo Configure the size of jumbo frames. By default, it is 1518 bytes.
Generally, the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) size of a normal frame is 1518 bytes. If you want the switch supports to transmit frames of which the MTU size is greater than 1518 bytes, you can configure the MTU size manually here.
2) Select one or more ports to configure the basic parameters. Then click Apply.
UNIT/LAGS Click the UNIT number to configure physical ports. Click LAGS to configure LAGs.
Type Displays the port type. Copper indicates an Ethernet port, and Fiber indicates an
SFP port.

Managing Physical Interfaces Basic Parameters Configurations
Description (Optional) Enter a description for the port.
Status With this option enabled, the port forwards packets normally. Otherwise, the port
cannot work. By default, it is enabled.
Speed Select the appropriate speed mode for the port. When Auto is selected, the
port automatically negotiates speed mode with the neighbor device. The default setting is Auto. It is recommended to select Auto if both ends of the link support auto-negotiation.
Duplex Select the appropriate duplex mode for the port. There are three options: Half,
Full and Auto. The default setting is Auto.
Half: The port can send and receive packets, but only one-way at a time.
Full: The port can send and receive packets simultaneously.
Auto: The port automatically negotiates duplex mode with the peer device.
Flow Control With this option enabled, when a device gets overloaded it will send a PAUSE
frame to notify the peer device to stop sending data for a specified period of time, thus avoiding the packet loss caused by congestion. By default, it is disabled.
Note:
We recommend that you set the ports on both ends of a link as the same speed and duplex mode.

2.2 Using the CLI

Follow these steps to set basic parameters for the ports.
Step 1 configure
Enter global configuration mode.
Step 2 jumbo-size
Change the MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) size to support jumbo frames. The default MTU size for frames received and sent on all ports is 1518 bytes. To transmit jumbo frames, you can manually configure MTU size of frames up to 9216 bytes.

Step 4 Configure basic parameters for the port:
description
Give a port description for identification.
string
shutdown no shutdown
Use shutdown to disable the port, and use no shutdown to enable the port. When the status is enabled, the port can forward packets normally, otherwise it will discard the received packets. By default, all ports are enabled.
speed { 10 | 100 | 1000 | 10000 | auto }
Set the appropriate speed mode for the port.
10 | 100 | 1000 | 10000 | auto: Speed mode of the port. The options are subject to your
actual product. The device connected to the port should be in the same speed and duplex mode with the port. When auto is selected, the speed mode will be determined by auto­negotiation.
string
: Content of a port description, ranging from 1 to 16 characters.
duplex { auto | full | half }
Set the appropriate duplex mode for the port.
auto | full | half: Duplex mode of the port. The device connected to the port should be in the
same speed and duplex mode with the port. When auto is selected, the duplex mode will be determined by auto-negotiation.
flow-control
Enable the switch to synchronize the data transmission speed with the peer device, avoiding the packet loss caused by congestion. By default, it is disabled.
