Switch Installation

Desktop Hardware Installation

The site where you install the hub stack may greatly affect its performance. When installing, consider the following pointers:
Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such
as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the hub for ventilation. Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight, or in an
EIA standard-size equipment rack. For information on rack installation, see the next section, Rack Mounting.
When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the rubber feet to the
bottom of each device. The rubber feet cushion the hub and protect the hub case from scratching.

Rack Mount Hardware Installation

The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard-size, 19-inch rack, which can be placed in
a wiring closet with other equipment. Attach the mounting brackets at the switch’s
front panel (one on each side), and secure them with the provided screws.
Then, use screws provided with the equipment rack to mount each switch in the rack.

Set your IPv6 settings

System > IPv6 System Settings
Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is a new IP protocol designed to replace IP version 4 (IPv4). The IPv6 address protocol meets the current requirements of new applications and the never ending growth of the Internet. The IPv6 address space makes more addresses available but it must be approached with careful planning. Successful deployment of IPv6 can be achieved with existing IPv4 infrastructures. With proper planning and design, the transition between IP version 4 and 6 is possible today as well.
Use the IPv6 System Settings page to configure the IPv6 network interface, which is the logical interface used for in-band connectivity with the switch via all of the switch's front-panel ports. The configuration parameters associated with the switch's network interface do not affect the configuration of the front-panel ports through which traffic is switched or routed.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on System, and click on IPv6 System Settings.
3. Review the settings. When you have completed making changes, click Apply to save
the settings.
IPv6 State: The IPv6 address for the IPv6 network interface is set in auto
configuration mode if this option is enabled. The default value is Disable. Auto configuration can be enabled only when DHCPv6 is not enabled on any of the management interfaces. DHCPv6 Client: This option only displays when DHCPv6 is enabled.
IPv6 Unicast Address / Prefix Length: The IPv6 Unicast Address is an identifier
for a single interface, on a single node. A packet that is sent to a unicast address is delivered to the interface identified by that address. Add the IPv6 prefix and prefix length to the IPv6 System Settings interface.
IPv6 Static Gateway: Specifies the corresponding Gateway of the IP address
entered into the field.
IPv6 Dynamic Gateway: To configure the switch to automatically obtain its IP
configuration from a DHCP server on your network.
NS Retransmit Time Settings: A constant that defines a nonzero number of
seconds between periodic reauthentication of the client. The field is 1~3600 seconds. The default setting is 1 second.
Link Local Address Settings: A link-local address is an IPv6 unicast address that
can be automatically configured on any interface using the link-local prefix FE80::/10 (1111 1110 10) and the interface identifier in the modified EUI-64 format. Link-local addresses are used in the neighbor discovery protocol and the stateless autoconfiguration process. Nodes on a local link can use link-local addresses to communicate; the nodes do not need globally unique addresses to communicate. IPv6 devices must not forward packets that have link-local source or destination addresses to other links.
Automatic Link Local Address: A link local address has a prefix of FE80, is not
routable, and can be used for communication only on the local network. Only one link local address is supported. If a link local address exists on the interface, this entry replaces the address in the configuration.
Link Local Address/Prefix length: Enter the Link Local Address/Prefix Length.

Admin. Status: This parameter indicates the operating status of the port. You can use this parameter to enable or disable a port. You may want to disable a port and prevent packets from being forwarded if a problem occurs with the node or cable connected to the port. You can enable the port to resume normal operation after the problem has been fixed. You can also disable an unused port to secure it from unauthorized connections. The possible values are:
o Ignore -This parameter applies to the All row only and indicates that
the Admin. Status field must be set individually for each port.
o Enabled - This parameter indicates the port is able to send and receive
Ethernet frames.
o Disabled - This parameter indicates the port is not able to send and
receive Ethernet frames.
Mode: This parameter indicates the speed and duplex mode settings for the
port. You can use this parameter to set the speed and duplex mode of a port. The possible settings are:
o Ignore -This parameter indicates that the All setting does not apply to
the Mode field. In other words, each port is set individually.
o Auto -This parameter indicates the port is using Auto-Negotiation to
set the operating speed and duplex mode. The actual operating speed and duplex mode of the port are displayed in parentheses (for example, “1000/F” for 1000 Mbps full duplex mode) after a port establishes a link with an end node.

o When a twisted-pair port is set to Auto-Negotiation, the end node should
also be set to Auto-Negotiation to prevent a duplex mode mismatch.
o A switch port using Auto-Negotiation defaults to half-duplex if it detects
that the end node is not using Auto-Negotiation. This can result in a mismatch if the end node is operating at a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex. To avoid this problem when connecting an end node with a fixed duplex mode of full-duplex to a switch port, disable Auto-Negotiation on the port and set the port’s speed and duplex mode manually.
o The only valid setting for the SFP ports is Auto-Negotiation.

Spanning Tree (STP, RSTP, MSTP)

Configure Spanning Tree Protocol settings

Bridge > Spanning Tree > Protocol Settings
Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides network topology for any arrangement of bridges/switches. STP also provides a single path between end stations on a network, eliminating loops. Loops occur when alternate routes exist between hosts. Loops in an extended network can cause bridges to forward traffic indefinitely, resulting in increased traffic and reducing network efficiency.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Bridge.
3. Review the settings. Click Apply to save changes.
Global STP Status: Select the STP state on the device. The possible field values
are:
o Disable – Disables STP on the device. This is the default value. o Enable – Enables STP on the device.
Protocol Version: Specifies the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) mode to enable
on the switch. The possible field values are:
o STP – Enables STP 802.1d on the device. o RSTP – Enables Rapid STP 802.1w on the device. This is the default
value.
o MSTP – Enables Multiple STP 802.1s on the device.
Bridge Priority: The Bridge Priority has a range 0 to 61440 in increments of
4096. To make this easier for you, the Web Management Utility divides the range into increments. You specify the increment that represents the desired bridge priority value.
Maximum Age: The Maximum Age defines the amount of time a port will wait
for STP/RSTP information. MSTP uses this parameter when interacting with STP/RSTP domains on the boundary ports. Its range is 6 - 40 seconds

Hello Time: The Hello Time is frequency with which the root bridge sends out a
BPDU.
Forward Delay: The Forward Delay defines the time that the bridge spends in
the listening and learning states. Its range is 4 - 30 seconds.
Transmit Hold Count: The Transmit Hold Count specifies the maximum number
of BPDUs that the bridge can send per second. Its range is 1 - 10.
Max Hop Count: The Max Hop Count is a parameter set in a BPDU packet when
it originates. It is decremented by 1each time it is retransmitted by the next bridge. When the Hop Count value reaches zero, the bridge drops the BPDU packet. Its range is 6 - 40 hops.

Configure Spanning Tree Protocol port settings

Bridge > Spanning Tree > Port Settings
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Bridge, click on Spanning Tree, and click on Port Settings.
3. Review the settings. For each entry, click Apply to save changes.
STP Status: Indicates if spanning tree protocol is active or not on the port.
Select one of the following choices from the pull-down menu:
o Enable - The spanning tree protocol is enabled on the port. o Disabled - The spanning tree protocol is disabled on the port. Enable
Disable
Note: BPDU passthrough must be disabled for all ports under Physical interface for STP can be enabled.
Priority: Indicates the port priority. If two paths have the same port cost, the
bridges must select a preferred path. In some instances this can involve the use of the port priority parameter which is used as a tie breaker when two paths have the same cost.
The range for port priority is 0 to 240. As with bridge priority, this range is broken into increments, in this case multiples of 16. To select a port priority for a port, you enter the desired value. Table 1 lists the values that are valid.
Valid Port Priority Values
In addition, this section also displays the spanning tree root information.
Admin Cost (0 = Auto): The administratively assigned value for the contribution
of this port to the path cost of paths towards the spanning tree root. Writing a value of '0' assigns the automatically calculated default Path Cost value to the port. If the default Path Cost is being used, this object returns '0' when read.
TRENDnet User’s Guide
TPE-1020WS
24
External Cost: This defines a metric that indicates the relative cost of
forwarding packets to the specified port list. Port cost can be set automatically or as a metric value. Define a value between 1 and 200000000 to determine the external cost. The lower the number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen to forward packets. The default port cost: 100Mbps port =
200000. Gigabit port = 20000.
State – Displays the current port spanning tree state.
o Blocking - A blocking state does not allow network traffic to be sent or
received on a the port except for BPDU data. A port with a higher path cost to the root bridge than another on the switch causes a switching loop and is placed in the blocking state by the Spanning Tree algorithm. The port’s state may change to the forwarding state if the other links in use fail and the Spanning Tree algorithm determines the port may transition to the forwarding state.
o Listening - This state occurs on a port during the convergence process.
The port in the listening state processes BPDUs and awaits new information that would cause the port to return to the blocking state.
o Learning - While the port does not yet forward frames (packets), in
this state the port does learn source addresses from frames received and adds them to the filtering (switching) database.
o Forwarding - A port that both receives and sends data. This indicates
normal operation. STP continues to monitor the port for incoming BPDUs that indicate the port should return to the blocking state to prevent a loop.
o Disabled - This state is not strictly part of STP. However, a network
administrator can manually disable a port.
Edge: Indicates if a port is connected to an edge device in the network topology
or not. Selecting the Forcetrue parameter designates the port as an edge port. Edge ports cannot create loops, however an edge port can lose edge port status if a topology change creates a potential for a loop. An edge port normally should not receive BPDU packets. If a BPDU packet is received, it automatically loses edge port status. Selecting the Forcefalse parameter indicates that the port does not have edge port status. Selecting the Auto parameter indicates that the port have edge port status or not have edge port status automatically. The default setting for this parameter is Auto.
P2P: Choosing the Forcetrue parameter indicates a point-to-point (P2P) shared
link. P2P ports are similar to edge ports however they are restricted in that a P2P port must operate in full-duplex.
Like edge ports, P2P ports transition to a forwarding state rapidly thus benefiting from RSTP. A P2P value of Forcefalse indicates that the port cannot have P2P status. Auto allows the port to have P2P status whenever possible and operate as if the P2P status were true. If the port cannot maintain this status, (for example if the port is forced to half-duplex operation) the P2P status changes to operate as if the P2P value were Forcefalse.
The default setting for this parameter is Auto.
Restricted Role: Toggle between True and False to set the restricted role state
of the packet. If set to True, the port will never be selected to be the Root port. The default value is False.
Restricted TCN: Toggle between True and False to set the restricted TCN of the
packet. Topology Change Notification (TCN) is a BPDU that a bridge sends out to its root port to signal a topology change. If set to True, it stops the port from propagating received TCN and to other ports. The default value is False.
Migrate: Indicates if the port is configured to accept RSTP and STP BPDUs.

VLAN

Add, modify, and remove VLANs

Bridge > VLAN > Tagged VLAN
A VLAN is a group of ports that can be anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they were in the same area.
VLANs can be easily organized to reflect department groups (such as R&D, Marketing), usage groups (such as e-mail), or multicast groups (multimedia applications such as video conferencing), and therefore help to simplify network management by allowing users to move devices to a new VLAN without having to change any physical connections.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Bridge, click on VLAN, and click on Tagged VLAN.
3. Review the settings.
VLAN ID – Enter the VLAN ID for the new VLAN. VLAN Name – Enter the VLAN name. Management VLAN – Click the drop-down list and select Enabled to allow
access to the switch management page through the new VLAN. If you want to restrict management access through this VLAN, select Disabled.
Note: By default, the default VLAN VID 1 is set as the Management VLAN.
Tagged/Untagged/Not Member VLAN Ports
On a port, the tag information within a frame is examined when it is received to determine if the frame is qualified as a member of a specific tagged VLAN. If it is, it is eligible to be switched to other member ports of the same VLAN. If it is determined that the frame’s tag does not conform to the tagged VLAN, the frame is discarded.
Since these VLAN ports are VLAN aware and able to read VLAN VID tagged information on a frame and forward to the appropriate VLAN, typically tagged VLAN ports are used for uplink and downlink to other switches to carry and forward traffic for multiple VLANs across multiple switches. Tagged VLAN ports can be included as members for multiple VLANs. Computers and other edge devices are not typically connected to tagged VLAN ports unless the network interface on these device can be enabled to be VLAN aware.
Select the tagged VLAN ports to add to the new VLAN.
Untagged VLAN ports are used to connect edge devices (VLAN unaware) such as computers, laptops, and printers to a specified VLAN. It is required to modify the Port VID settings accordingly for untagged VLAN ports under Bridge > VLAN > Port Settings. (e.g. If the VID for the VLAN is 2, the PVID should also be set to 2)
Select the untagged VLAN ports to add to the new VLAN.
Select the not member ports to restrict from the new VLAN.
In the sections Static Tagged, Static Untagged, and Not Member, you can add the type of VLAN ports to add to the new VLAN (Tagged or Untagged) and assign ports that are not members (Forbidden) of the new VLAN.

Create a private VLAN

Bridge > VLAN > Private VLAN
The private VLAN feature allows you to create a more secure VLAN that is completely isolated to it’s members and cannot communicate with other VLANs. A private VLAN partitions the Layer 2 broadcast domain of a VLAN into subdomains, allowing you to isolate the ports on the switch from each other. A subdomain consists of a primary VLAN and one or more secondary VLANs. All VLANs in a private VLAN domain share the same primary VLAN. The secondary VLAN ID differentiates one subdomain from another. The secondary VLANs may either be isolated VLANs or community VLANs. A host on an isolated VLAN can only communicate with the associated promiscuous port in its primary VLAN. Hosts on community VLANs can communicate among themselves and with their associated promiscuous port but not with ports in other community VLANs.
The following guidelines apply when configuring private VLANs: The default VLAN 1 cannot be a private VLAN. The management VLAN 4095 cannot be a private VLAN. The management port cannot be a member of a private VLAN.IGMP Snooping must be disabled on isolated VLANs. Each secondary port's (isolated port and community ports) PVID must match its corresponding secondary VLAN ID. Ports within a secondary VLAN cannot be members of other VLANs. All VLANs that make up the private VLAN must belong to the same Spanning Tree Group.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).

GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protcol)

The GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) allows network devices to share VLAN information and to use the information to modify existing VLANs or create new VLANs, automatically. This makes it easier to manage VLANs that span more than one switch. Without GVRP, you have to manually configure your switches to ensure that the various parts of the VLANs can communicate with each other across the different switches. With GVRP, which is an application of the Generic Attribute Registration Protocol (GARP), this is done for you automatically.

QoS (Quality of Service)

When a port on an Ethernet switch becomes oversubscribed, its egress queues contain more packets than the port can handle in a timely manner. In this situation, the port may be forced to delay the transmission of some packets, resulting in the delay of packets reaching their destinations. A port may be forced to delay transmission of packets while it handles other traffic, and, in some situations, some packets destined to be forwarded to an oversubscribed port from other switch ports may be discarded. Minor delays are often of no consequence to a network or its performance. But there are applications, referred to as delay or time sensitive applications, which can be impacted by packet delays. Voice transmission and video conferences are two examples. If packets carrying data in either of these cases are delayed from reaching their destination, the audio or video quality may suffer. This is where Cost of Service (CoS) is of value. It allows you to manage the flow of traffic through a switch by having the switch ports give higher priority to some packets, such as delay sensitive traffic, over other packets. This is referred to as prioritizing traffic.

Set CoS priority settings

Bridge > QoS > CoS
Note: Before mapping the CoS priorities and the egress queues, you must disable the Jumbo frame parameter on each port. When Jumbo frames are enabled, COS cannot be

RMON

The RMON (Remote MONitoring) MIB is used with SNMP applications to monitor the operations of network devices. The Switch supports the four RMON MIB groups listed here:
Statistic group This group is used to view port statistics remotely with SNMP
programs.
History group This group is used to collect histories of port statistics to
identify traffic trends or patterns.
Event group This group is used with alarms to define the actions of the
switch when packet statistic thresholds are crossed.
Alarm groupThis group is used to create alarms that trigger event log
messages or SNMP traps when statistics thresholds are exceeded.
You can use your SNMP Network Management System (NMS) software and the RMON section of the MIB tree to view the RMON statistics, history and alarms associated with specific ports. Since RMON uses the SNMP agent for communicating with your NMS software, the SNMP Agent must be enabled and the SNMP feature must be configured on your switch. Since RMON works in conjunction with the SNMP agent, the SNMP agent must be enabled for the RMON feature to be active.

Configure parameters for RMON alarms

RMON > Alarm
RMON alarms are used to generate alert messages when packet activity on designated ports rises above or falls below specified threshold values. The alert messages can take the form of messages that are entered in the event log on the switch or traps that are sent to your SNMP NMS software or both.
RMON alarms consist of two thresholds. There is a rising threshold and a falling threshold. The alarm is triggered if the value of the monitored RMON statistic of the designated port exceeds the rising threshold. The response of the switch is to enter a message in the event log, send an SNMP trap, or both. The alarm is reset if the value of the monitored statistic drops below the falling threshold.
The frequency with which the switch samples the thresholds of an alarm against the actual RMON statistic is controlled by a time interval parameter. You can adjust this interval for each alarm.
Here are the three components that comprise RMON alarms:
RMON statistics group: A port must have an RMON statistics group configured
if it is to have an alarm. When you create an alarm, you specify the port to which it is to be assigned not by the port number, but rather by the ID number of the port’s statistics group.
RMON event: An event specifies the action of the Switch when the ingress
packet activity on a port crosses a statistical threshold defined in an alarm. The choices are to log a message in the event log of the Switch, send an SNMP trap to an SNMP workstation, or both. Since there are only three possible actions and since events can be used with more than one alarm, you probably will not create more than three events.
Alarm: The last component is the alarm itself. It defines the port statistic to be
monitored and the rising and falling thresholds that trigger the switch to perform an event. The thresholds of an alarm can have the same event or different events. The switch supports up to eight alarms.

Delta value- setting compares a threshold against the difference between the current and previous values of the statistic. Absolute value- setting compares a threshold against the current value of the statistic.
Rising Threshold: This parameter specifies a specific value or threshold level of
the monitored statistic. When the value of the monitored statistic becomes greater than this threshold level, an alarm event is triggered. The parameter’s range is 1 to 2147483647.
Falling Threshold: This parameter specifies a specific value or threshold level of
the monitored statistic. When the value of the monitored statistic becomes less than this threshold level, an alarm event is triggered. The parameter’s range is 1 to 2147483647.

Voice VLAN

This chapter contains a description of the Switch’s Voice VLAN feature and the
procedures to create, modify, and delete a voice VLAN configuration. The Voice VLAN feature is specifically designed to maintain high quality, uninterrupted
voice traffic through the switch. When talking on a voice over IP phone, a user expects to have no interruptions in the conversation and excellent voice quality. The Voice VLAN feature can be configured to meet these requirements.
CoS with Voice VLAN
The Voice VLAN CoS parameter maintains the voice quality between the ingress and egress ports of the switch. CoS must be enabled for the Voice VLAN CoS priority to take effect. The CoS priority level that you config is applied to voice traffic on all ports of the voice VLAN. Normally, most (non-Voice) Ethernet traffic transverses the switch through lower order egress queues. To avoid delays and interruptions in the voice data flow, the CoS priority level assigned to the voice VLAN should be mapped to a higher order queue and the scheduling algorithm should be set to Strict Priority. These settings ensure that the voice data packets are processed before other types of data so that the voice quality is maintained as the voice data passes through the switch.
Organization Unique Identifier (OUI)
Each IP phone manufacturer can be identified by one or more Organization Unique Identifiers (OUIs). An OUI is three bytes long and is usually expressed in hexadecimal format. It is imbedded into the first part of each MAC address of an Ethernet network device. You can find the OUI of an IP phone in the first three complete bytes of its MAC address.
Typically, you will find that all of the IP phones you are installing have the same OUI in common. The switch identifies a voice data packet by comparing the OUI information in the packet’s source MAC address with an OUI table that you configure when you initially set up the voice VLAN. This is important when the Auto-Detection feature for a port and is a dynamic voice VLAN port.
When you are configuring the voice VLAN parameters, you must enter the complete MAC address of at least one of your IP phones. An “OUI Mask” is automatically generated and applied by the Web Management Utility software to yield the
manufacturer’s OUI. If the OUI of the remaining phones from that manufacturer is the
same, then no other IP phone MAC addresses need to be entered into the configuration.
However, it is possible that you can find more than one OUI from the same manufacturer among the IP phones you are installing. It is also possible that your IP phones are from two or more different manufacturers in which case you will find different OUIs for each manufacturer. If you identify more than one OUI among the IP phones being installed, then one MAC address representing each individual OUI must be configured in the voice VLAN. You can enter a total of 10 OUIs.
Dynamic Auto-Detection vs Static Ports
Prior to configuring the voice VLAN, you must configure a tagged VLAN which is the basis for the voice VLAN configuration. The VLAN must be configured with one or more tagged or untagged ports that will serve as the voice VLAN uplink/downlink. By default, a tagged or untagged port is a static member of a tagged VLAN. The ports that you choose to configure as dynamic Auto-Detection ports
must be connected directly to an IP phone. When you initially define the ports of a tagged VLAN for your voice VLAN configuration, they must be configured as a “Not
Member” ports. The “Not Member” ports are eligible to dynamically join the voice VLAN
when voice data is detected with a predefined OUI in the source MAC address. The port will leave the voice VLAN after a specified timeout period. This port behavior is configured with the voice VLAN Auto-Detection feature.
For the Auto-Detection feature to function, your IP phone(s) must be capable of generating 802.1Q packets with imbedded VLAN ID tags. You must manually configure
your IP phone(s) for the same VLAN ID as the switch’s voice VLAN ID. When voice data is detected on one of the “Not Member” ports, the packets from the IP phone will contain
the voice VLAN ID so they are switched within the switch’s voice VLAN. One or more ports in your voice VLAN must be configured as Static tagged or untagged
members. Static VLAN members are permanent member ports of the voice VLAN and there is no dependency on the configuration of the devices connected to the ports. These ports might be connected to other voice VLAN network nodes such as other Ethernet switches, a telephone switch, or a DHCP server. The voice VLAN Auto­Detection feature cannot be enabled on Static tagged or tagged ports.
Note: Any Static tagged members of the voice VLAN are required to have the port VLAN ID (PVID) configured to be the same as the voice VLAN ID. This insures that all untagged packets entering the port are switched within the voice VLAN as the voice data passes through the switch.
If the IP phone(s) that you are installing cannot be configured with a VLAN ID, then the switch ports should be configured as Static tagged ports within the voice VLAN.

Note: Link Layer Discovery Protocol for Media Endpoint Devices (LLDP- MED) is not supported on the switch. Each IP phone that is VLAN aware should be manually configured for the VLAN ID that matches your voice VLAN ID. Each of the voice VLAN
ports connected to an IP phone should be configured as “Not Member” ports of the
tagged VLAN.

Security

This chapter contains information about the Port-based security features and the procedures for setting this feature.

Configure Port Access Control

Security > Port Access Control
This section contains information and configuration procedures for the Port-based Access Control. Port-based Network Access Control (IEEE 802.1x) is used to
control who can send traffic through and receive traffic from a switch port. With this feature, the switch does not allow an end node to send or receive traffic through a port until the user of the node logs on by entering a user name and password.
This feature can prevent an unauthorized individual from connecting a computer to a port or using an unattended workstation to access your network resources. Only those users to whom you have assigned a user name and password are able to use the switch to access the network.
This feature can be used with one of two authentication methods:
The RADIUS authentication protocol requires that a remote RADIUS server is
present on your network. The RADIUS server performs the authentication of the user name and password combinations.
The Dial-in User (local) authentication method allows you to set up the
authentication parameters internally in the switch without an external server. In this case, the user name and password combinations are entered in the associated with an optional VLAN when they are defined. Based on these entries, the authentication process is done locally by the Web Management Utility using a standard EAPOL transaction.
Note: RADIUS with Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) extensions is the only supported authentication server for this feature.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Security and click on Port Access Control.
3. Review the settings. Click Apply to save the settings. Configure the following parameters as required:
NAS ID - This parameter assigns an 802.1x identifier to the switch that applies
to all ports. The NAS ID can be up to sixteen characters. Valid characters are 0 to 9, a to z, and A to Z. Spaces are allowed. Specifying an NAS ID is optional.
Port Access Control - This parameter enables or disables Port Access Control.
Select one of the following choices from the pulldown menu:
o Enable: The Port Access Control feature is activated. o Disable: The Port Access Control feature is de-activated.
Authentication Method - This parameter indicates the authentication method
used by the switch. Select one of the following choices:
o RADIUS: This parameter configures port security for remote
authentication. After completing steps, you must configure the “RADIUS Client” section.
o Local: This parameter configures port security for local authentication.
After completing steps, you must configure the parameters for “Dial-in User Local Authentication” section.
o TACACS+: This parameter configures port security for terminal
authentication. After completing steps, you must configure the TACACS+ Settings section.

Destination MAC Filter

Security > Destination MAC Filter
This section contains an explanation of the Destination MAC Filter feature as well a procedure for configuring it. This section includes the following information:
The Destination MAC Filter feature prevents the switch from forwarding packets to a specified device. On the Destination MAC Filter Page of the Web Management Utility software, enter the MAC address of the device that you want to filter.
After the switch receives a packet, it examines the destination MAC address of the packet. If the destination MAC address matches a MAC address set in the filter, the software prevents the switch from forwarding it and drops the packet.
You may want to block access to a device within your organization. For instance, you may not want users on the Sales group switch to have access to a server on the Accounting group switch. You can enter the MAC address of the Accounting server as a destination MAC address filter on the Sales group switch. When a packet destined for the Accounting server is received by the Sales group switch, the switch drops the packet.
The Destination MAC Filter is a subset of the static MAC address.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Security and click on Destination MAC Filter.

Denial of Service (DoS)

Security > Denial of Service
The switch has built-in DoS prevention features to restrict specific type of traffic associated denial of service attacks on your network. By default, all of the DoS settings are set to Allow, which allow any type of traffic to pass through the switch. Setting one of the items to Deny will set the switch to check for traffic matching the selected item and deny any traffic matching the rule. On the other hand, setting one of rules to Deny may deny a specific type of traffic that may prevent traffic essential to running your network such as devices in load balancing configuration using virtual IP addresses (Ex. If ARP MAC SA Mismatch is set to Deny, it may cause devices in load balance configuration using shared virtual IP addresses communication issues essential for network server load balancing.) For additional security, you can set these rules to Deny as necessary.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page on page 7).
2. Click on Security and click on Denial of Service.
3. Next to the DoS item/rule you would like to activate, click the drop-down menu on the right hand side and select Deny.

Description
Description
This is the highest priority level. Ports set to the Critical level are guaranteed to receive power before any of the ports assigned to the other priority levels.
High
Ports set to the High level receive power only when all the ports assigned to the Critical level are already receiving power.
Low
This is the lowest priority level. Ports set to the Low level receive power only when all the ports assigned to the Critical and High levels are already receiving power. This level is the default setting.

PoE Configuration

The main advantage of PoE is that it can make installing a network easier. The selection of a location for a network device is often limited by whether there is a power source nearby. This constraint limits equipment placement or requires the added time and cost of having additional electrical sources installed. However, with PoE, you can install PoEcompatible devices wherever they are needed without having to worry about whether there is power source nearby.
Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE)
A device that provides PoE to other network devices is referred to as power sourcing equipment (PSE). The Gigabit Web Smart PoE+ Switch is a PSE device which provides DC power to the network cable and functions as a central power
source for other network devices.
Powered Device (PD)
A device that receives power from a PSE device is called a powered device (PD). Examples include wireless access points, IP phones, webcams, and even
other Ethernet switches. PD Classes PDs are grouped into five classes. The classes are based on the amount of
power that PDs require. The Gigabit Web Smart PoE+ Switch supports all five classes.
Power Budget Power budget is the maximum amount of power that the PoE switch can provide at one
time to the connected PDs. Port Prioritization As long as the total power requirements of the PDs is less than the total available power of the switch, it can supply power to all of the PDs.
However, when the PD power requirements exceed the total available power, the switch denies power to some ports based on a process called port
prioritization. The ports on the PoE switch are assigned to one of three priority levels. These levels and
descriptions are listed in Table 3. Without enough power to support all the ports set to the same priority level
at one time, the switch provides power to the ports based on the port number, in ascending order. For example, when all of the ports in the switch are set to the low priority level and the power requirements are exceeded on the switch, port 1 has the highest priority level, port 2 has the next highest
priority level and so forth.

Cable Diagnostics Test

Tools > Cable Diagnostics
The switch provides a basic cable diagnostic tool in the GUI for verifying the pairs in copper cabling and estimated distance for troubleshooting purposes.
Note:
1. If the cable length displays N/A, it means that the cable length is Not Available. The may be due to the port being unable to determine the estimated cable length. If length is displayed as “N/A” it means the cable length is “Not Available”. This is due to the port being unable to obtain cable length/either because its link speed is 10M or 100M, or the cables used are broken and/or of bad in quality.
2. The deviation of “Cable Fault Distance” is +/- 2 meters. No cable may be displayed in the table when the cable is less than 2 meters in length.
