budget
Compact Design
With a compact and lightweight housing design this switch is well-suited for desktop
installations. Its fanless design is perfect for quiet environments that require silent
operation.
Network Management
A broad range of network configurations are supported by: 802.3ad link aggregation,
802.1Q VLAN, bandwidth controls, IGMP, loopback detection, port mirroring and 802.1p
(QoS).
Troubleshooting
Traffic statistics and a convenient cable diagnostic test aid in network troubleshooting.
You can connect additional computers or other network devices PoE (Power over Ethernet) (Ports 1-4 PoE+/PoE, Ports 5-8) or non-PoE devices to your switch using Ethernet cables to
connect them to one of the available Gigabit Ports (1-8). Check the status of the LED indicators on the front panel of your switch to ensure the physical cable connection from your
computer or device.
Note: If you encounter issues connecting to your network, there may be a problem with your computer or device network settings. Please ensure that your computer or device network
settings (also called TCP/IP settings) are configured properly within the network subnet your switch is connected.
Note: Your switch default management IP address http://192.168.10.200 is accessed
through the use of your Internet web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer®, Firefox®,
Chrome™, Safari®, and Opera™) and will be referenced frequently in this User’s Guide.
1. Open your web browser and go to the IP address http://192.168.10.200. Your switch
will prompt you for a user name and password.
2. Enter the user name and password. By default:
User Name: admin
Password: admin
Note: User Name and Password are case sensitive.

System
You may want to check the general system information of your switch such as firmware
version, build date, and IP address information. You can also enable or disable jumbo
frames or power saving (EEE) features.
1. Log into your switch management page (see “Access your switch management page”
on page 6).
2. Click on System.
Mode Name: The model name of the switch.
Device Name: The current device name assigned to the switch. This can be
changed by clicking the TPE-TG44ES, entering new device name and clicking
Apply.
Firmware Version: The current software or firmware version your switch is
running.
Build Date: The build of the current software or firmware running on your switch.
MAC Address: Displays the switch system MAC address.
IPv4 Address: Displays the current IP address assigned to your switch.
Subnet Mask: Displays the current IP subnet mask assigned to your switch.
Gateway: Displays the current gateway address assigned to your switch.
Loop Status: If loopback prevention is enabled, displays if loops have been
detected on the network.
Note: You can also click Logout at the bottom of the left hand navigation to log out of
the switch management page.
Jumbo Frame: Check the option and click Apply to enable jumbo frames. The
switch can support jumbo frames up to 9KB in size.
Power Saving (EEE): Check the option and click Apply to enable IEEE 802.3az
power saving.
The IEEE 802.3 EEE standard defines mechanisms and protocols intended to
reduce the energy consumption of network links during periods of low utilization,
by transitioning interfaces into a low-power state without interrupting the
network connection. The transmitted and received sides should be IEEE802.3az
EEE compliance.
