Management Network Settings
The Management Network Settings configure the IP settings and management access of the TOUGHSwitch.
Because the TOUGHSwitch is a Layer 2 device, the IP Address and Netmask are not mandatory; however, if you want to manage the TOUGHSwitch, then you will need to configure the IP Address and Netmask unless you select DHCP.
Management IP Address The TOUGHSwitch can use a
static IP address or obtain an IP address from its DHCP server.
• Static Assign static IP settings to the TOUGHSwitch.
- Gateway IP Typically, this is the IP address of the host router, which provides the point of connection to the Internet. This can be a DSL modem, cable modem, or WISP gateway router. The TOUGHSwitch directs packets to the gateway if the destination host is not within the local network. The default is 192.168.1.1.
- Primary DNS IP Specify the IP address of the primary DNS (Domain Name System) server.
- Secondary DNS IP Specify the IP address of the secondary DNS server. This entry is optional and used only if the primary DNS server is not responding.
• DHCP The local DHCP server assigns a dynamic IP address, netmask, gateway IP address, and DNS address to the TOUGHSwitch.
Note: We do not recommend the DHCP option.
The IP address may change, and you will need to use the Discovery tool from another Ubiquiti device or computer to discover the IP address of the TOUGHSwitch. You can also reset the TOUGHSwitch to its factory default settings. (Press and hold the Reset button for more than 10 seconds.) Its default IP Address is reset to
192.168.1.20.
Note: IP settings should be consistent with the
address space of the TOUGHSwitch’s network segment.
- IP Address Specify the IP address of the TOUGHSwitch. This IP will be used for device management purposes. The default is 192.168.1.20.
- Netmask When the netmask is expanded into its binary form, it provides a mapping to define which portions of the IP address range are used for the network devices and which portions are used for host devices. The netmask defines the address space of the TOUGHSwitch’s network segment. The default
255.255.255.0 (or “/24”) netmask is commonly used on many Class C IP networks.
- Management Port Only By default, this option is disabled and you can manage the TOUGHSwitch through any port. To restrict management access to only the Management port, check this box.
Note: The Management Port Only option must be
disabled if you want traffic to flow between the Management port and numbered ports. Traffic will be limited to 10/100 Mbps and, under heavy load, may cause performance degradation of the TOUGHSwitch.
- DHCP Fallback IP Specify the IP address the TOUGHSwitch should use if a DHCP server is not found. The default is 192.168.1.20.
- DHCP Fallback Netmask Specify the netmask the TOUGHSwitch should use if a DHCP server is not found. The default is 255.255.255.0.
- Management Port Only By default, this option is disabled and you can manage the TOUGHSwitch through any port. To restrict management access to only the Management port, check this box.
Note: The Management Port Only option must be
disabled if you want traffic to flow between the Management port and numbered ports. Traffic will be limited to 10/100 Mbps and, under heavy load, may cause performance degradation of the TOUGHSwitch.

Telnet Server
The following Telnet Server parameters can be set:
Telnet Server This option activates Telnet access to the
device.
• Server Port Specify the TCP/IP port of the Telnet server. The default is 23.
Services
The Services section configures system management services: SNMP Agent, System Log, Dynamic DNS, and NTP Client.
SNMP Agent
Simple Network Monitor Protocol (SNMP) is an application layer protocol that facilitates the exchange of management information between network devices. Network administrators use SNMP to monitor network-attached devices for issues that warrant attention.
The device contains an SNMP agent, which does the following:
• Provides an interface for device monitoring using SNMP
• Communicates with SNMP management applications
for network provisioning
• Allows network administrators to monitor network performance and troubleshoot network problems
Dynamic DNS
Domain Name System (DNS) translates domain names to IP addresses; Each DNS server on the Internet holds these mappings in its respective DNS database. Dynamic Domain Name System (DDNS) is a network service that notifies the DNS server in real time of any changes in the device’s IP settings. Even if the device’s IP address changes, you can still access the device through its domain name.
Dynamic DNS If enabled, the device allows
communications with the DDNS server.
• Host Name Enter the host name of the DDNS server.
• Username Enter the username of the DDNS account.
• Password Enter the password of the DDNS account.
• Show Check the box to display the password
characters.
System Log
If you enable the System Log, the messages display on the Alerts tab; see “System Log” on page 29.
For the purpose of equipment identification, configure the SNMP agent with contact and location information:
SNMP Agent Enables the SNMP agent.
• SNMP Community Specify the SNMP community string. It is required to authenticate access to Management Information Base (MIB) objects and functions as an embedded password. The device supports a read-only community string; authorized management stations have read access to all the objects in the MIB except the community strings, but do not have write access. The device supports SNMP v1. The default SNMP Community is public.
• Contact Specify the contact who should be notified in case of emergency.
• Location Specify the physical location of the device.
Ubiquiti Networks, Inc.
System Log This option enables the registration routine
of system log (syslog) messages. By default it is disabled.
• Remote Log Enables the syslog remote sending function. System log messages are sent to a remote server, which is specified in the following fields:
- Remote Log IP Address The host IP address that receives syslog messages. Properly configure the remote host to receive syslog protocol messages.
- Remote Log Port The TCP/IP port that receives syslog messages. 514 is the default port for the commonly used system message logging utilities.
Every logged message contains at least a system time and host name. Usually a specific service name that generates the system event is also specified within the message. Messages from different services have different contexts and different levels of detail. Usually error, warning, or informational system service messages are reported; however, more detailed debug level messages can also be reported. The more detailed the system messages reported, the greater the volume of log messages generated.
20

Chapter 5: Device Tab TOUGHSwitch™ PoE User Guide
NTP Client
Network Time Protocol (NTP) is a protocol for synchronizing the clocks of computer systems over packet-switched, variable-latency data networks. You can use it to set the system time on the device. If the System Log option is enabled, then the system time is reported next to every log entry that registers a system event.
NTP Client If enabled, the device obtains the system time
from a time server on the Internet.
• NTP Server Specify the IP address or domain name of the NTP server. The default is 0.ubnt.pool.ntp.org.
Spanning Tree Protocol
For optimal performance, there should be a single active path between two networking devices in an Ethernet network. Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) provides redundant paths and prevents network loops that can create excessive traffic and slow down performance. STP calculates the best path for network traffic; if the best path fails, STP recalculates and finds the next best path.
Jumbo Frames
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the maximum packet size (in bytes) that a network interface can transmit. A jumbo frame is a frame that is larger than the standard Ethernet frame with an MTU of 1500. Jumbo frames are typically used for Gigabit Ethernet connections.
Jumbo Frames By default, this option is disabled; the
TOUGHSwitch does not handle jumbo frames and drops them. If you enable this option, the TOUGHSwitch handles jumbo frames and forwards them. The maximum MTU of the TOUGHSwitch PoE is 9216, and the maximum MTU of the TOUGHSwitch PoE PRO is 9720.
Device Discovery
Discovery This option is enabled by default, so the device
can be discovered by other Ubiquiti devices through the Device Discovery tool. See “Discovery” on page 31 for more information.
Status Enabled by default, STP provides redundancy
without network loops.
Version Select the version of STP to use. STP and Rapid
STP (RSTP) display the following states: Blocking, Learning, and Forwarding. RSTP is recommended because ports can more quickly progress to the forwarding state. When STP is selected, the TOUGHSwitch sends STP packets. The default is RSTP.
Max Age Specify how long the TOUGHSwitch saves
a configuration message received on a port. If the TOUGHSwitch does not hear any new configuration messages after the Max Age time interval, then the TOUGHSwitch adapts and starts to reconfigure. The default is 20 seconds.
Hello Time Specify the time interval between
configuration messages transmitted by the TOUGHSwitch to other switches. The default is 2 seconds.
Forward Delay Specify how long the listening and
learning states last before the TOUGHSwitch forwards traffic. The default is 15 seconds.
Priority STP uses priority values to select a switch as the
root switch of the spanning tree. Specify the Priority value of the TOUGHSwitch. The default is 32768.
System Accounts
You can change the administrator password to protect your device from unauthorized changes. We recommend that you change the default administrator password during the very first system setup:
Administrator Username Specify the name of the
administrator.
Key button Click this button to change the password.
• Current Password Enter the current password for
the administrator account. It is required to change the Password or Administrator Username.
• New Password Enter the new password for the administrator account.
• Verify New Password Re-enter the new password for
the administrator account.

Chapter 6: Ports Tab TOUGHSwitch™ PoE User Guide
Basic Settings for Port
Name Enter a name for the port. Port Status To use this port, check the box.
Note: If you disable a port, its PoE functionality
remains.
PoE PoE is disabled by default on all ports. To output PoE
to the connected device, select 24V or 48V (48V available only on the TOUGHSwitch PoE PRO). To disable PoE, select Off.
Note: Before enabling PoE, check the specifications
of your airMAX, UniFi, legacy, or third-party devices to ensure they support passive PoE and require the available amount of voltage. The TOUGHSwitch PoE offers 24V passive PoE, and the TOUGHSwitch PoE PRO offers 24V or 48V passive PoE.
Autonegotiation By default, Autonegotiation is
enabled. The TOUGHSwitch automatically negotiates transmission parameters, such as speed and duplex, with its counterpart. In this process, the networked devices first share their capabilities and then choose the fastest transmission mode they both support.
Note: Autonegotiation applies only to speed and
duplex, not POE.
Link Speed, Mbps This is the speed of the port. To
manually specify the maximum transmission link speed, select 100 or 10. To achieve full performance with extra-long Ethernet cables, ensure that you use CAT6-qualified cables and interconnects.
Full Duplex By default, Full Duplex is enabled. Full-duplex
mode allows communication in both directions simultaneously. Half-duplex mode allows communication in one direction at a time, alternating between transmission and reception.
Ping Watchdog for Port
Ping Watchdog is only for PoE-enabled ports. It configures the device to continuously ping a user-defined IP address (it can be the Internet gateway, for example). If it is unable to ping under the user-defined constraints, then the device will automatically turn off PoE on the port, and then turn it back on. This option creates a kind of “fail-proof” mechanism.
Ping Watchdog is dedicated to continuous monitoring of the specific connection to the remote host using the Ping tool. The Ping tool works by sending ICMP echo request packets to the target host and listening for ICMP echo response replies. If the specified number of replies is not received, the tool reboots the device.
Port Ping Watchdog Enables use of Ping Watchdog.
• IP Address To Ping Specify the IP address of the target
host to be monitored by Ping Watchdog.
• Ping Interval Specify the time interval (in seconds) between the ICMP echo requests that are sent by Ping Watchdog. The default value is 300 seconds.
• Startup Delay Specify the initial time delay (in seconds) until the first ICMP echo requests are sent by Ping Watchdog. The default value is 300 seconds.
The Startup Delay value should be at least 60 seconds as the network interface and wireless connection initialization takes a considerable amount of time if the device is rebooted.
• Failure Count Specify the number of ICMP echo
response replies. If the specified number of ICMP echo response packets is not received continuously, Ping Watchdog will reboot the device. The default value is 3.
• Cut Power for Specify the number of seconds this port
should pause PoE (if applicable).
WARNING: Cutting power during a firmware
upgrade can damage your device. Ensure that you specify a safe Ping Interval.

Chapter 6: Ports Tab TOUGHSwitch™ PoE User Guide
Spanning Tree Settings for Port
STP settings are available per port if STP is enabled on the
Device tab (see “Spanning Tree Protocol” on page 21).
Edge Port If enabled, designates this port as a port that
connects to only a host device. The host device must not be connected to another switch or router. The Edge Port is always in the forwarding state and never undergoes the learning or blocking state.
Note: Ensure that the Edge Port is connected to
only a host device. If the Edge Port is connected to a switch or router (even indirectly through a host device), then this may cause a network loop.
Path Cost The lower the value, the better. STP uses the
Path Cost to determine the best path between devices. In most cases, specify lower values for ports with higher bandwidths, such as gigabit speeds, and specify higher values for ports with lower bandwidth. You can also specify lower values for ports you prefer to use. (Path Cost supersedes Priority.) The default is 0.
Priority The lower the value, the better. STP uses the
Priority as a tiebreaker. If the Path Cost of multiple ports are the same, then STP chooses the port with the highest Priority (lowest value) as the active port (the others are blocked). If STP detects a network loop, then a port with higher Priority is less likely to be blocked. If multiple ports share the highest Priority, then STP enables the port with the lowest port ID. The Priority range is 0 (highest priority) to 255 (lowest priority).The default is 128.
Configure Alerts for Port
If you configure alerts, the alerts display on the Alerts tab; see “Alert Log” on page 28.
For each port, you can configure the following alerts:
Link Goes Up/Down Generates an alert when the link
goes up or down.
RX Bandwidth Goes Above Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth exceeds the specified maximum. Enter the maximum in Mbps.
RX Bandwidth Goes Below Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth drops below the specified minimum. Enter the minimum in Mbps.
TX Bandwidth Goes Above Generates an alert when the
TX bandwidth exceeds the specified maximum. Enter the maximum in Mbps.
TX Bandwidth Goes Below Generates an alert when the
RX bandwidth drops below the specified minimum. Enter the minimum in Mbps.
