Product Overview

Easy Smart Switch is an ideal upgrade from Unmanaged Switch, designed for Small Office and Home Office networks. The switch supports the following features:
■ Traffic monitoring: Port mirroring, loop prevention and cable test enable the administrator to monitor traffic of the network effectively.
■ VLAN: MTU VLAN, Port based VLAN and 802.1Q VLAN can restrict broadcast domain, enhance network security and help manage devices easily.
■ QoS: Port based QoS, 802.1P based QoS and DSCP/802.1P based QoS optimize traffic on your business network, and keep latency-sensitive traffic moving smoothly. Bandwidth control helps distribute and utilize network bandwidth reasonably. Storm control helps avoid network broadcast storm.
■ PoE: PoE (Power over Ethernet) is a remote power supply function. With this function, the switch can supply power to the connected devices over twisted-pair cables.
Note:
TL-SG108PE and TL-SG1016PE support the PoE feature, but only TL-SG1016PE supports PoE configurations.

Introduction Logging Into the Switch

Logging Into the Switch

To configure your switch through a web browser on your PC, follow these steps:
1) Connect your switch to the network and connect your PC to the switch.
2) Find out the IP address of the switch.
■ By default, the switch receives an IP address from a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server) in your network. You can find out this IP address on the DHCP server.
■ If the switch cannot receive an IP address from a DHCP server, it uses the static IP address of 192.168.0.1, with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
3) Configure IP address on your PC to make sure the switch and PC are in the same subnet.
■ If the switch uses an IP address assigned by a DHCP server, set your PC to obtain an IP address automatically from the DHCP server.
■ If the switch uses the static IP address of 192.168.0.1, configure your PC’s IP address as 192.168.0.x (”x” ranges from 2 to 254), and subnet mask as
255.255.255.0.
4) Launch a web browser on your PC. 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
5) In the address bar of the web browser, enter the IP address of the switch. Here we suppose the switch uses the static IP address 192.168.0.1.

1.1 Overview

With the switching feature, you can configure port setting, IGMP Snooping and LAG.

1.2 Supported Features

The switch supports the following features about switching:
Port Setting
You can configure port status, speed, duplex mode and flow control for ports.
IGMP Snooping
In a point-to-multipoint network, packets can be sent in three ways: unicast, broadcast and multicast. With unicast, many copies of the same information will be sent to all the receivers, occupying a large bandwidth.
With broadcast, information will be sent to all users in the network no matter they need it or not, wasting network resources and impacting information security.
Multicast, however, solves all the problems caused by unicast and broadcast. With multicast, the source only needs to send one piece of information, and all and only the users who need the information will receive copies of the information. In a point-to-multipoint network, multicast technology not only transmits data with high efficiency, but also saves a large bandwidth and reduces network load.
When IGMP Snooping is disabled on the switch, multicast packets will be broadcast in the Layer 2 network; when IGMP Snooping is enabled on the switch, multicast data from
