CHAPTER 1

Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1 Introduction

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch. The GS1200 Series consists of the following models:
• GS1200-5
• GS1200-5HP v2
• GS1200-8
• GS1200-8HP v2
The Switch has 5/8 ports. You can easily connect different devices, such as computers, network storage devices, IP cameras, print servers to your home network.
The PoE ports of the GS1200-5HP v2 and GS1200-8HP v2 support IEEE802.3at High Power over Ethernet (PoE) and IEEE802.3af PoE standard, to provide power to IP CAM, wall mounted AP, and other devices that may be far from a power outlet.
For an advanced user, the Switch also provides a utility like web configurator to give you an easy configuration for VLAN, QoS, basis system management, and firmware upgrade. The Switch is compliant with IEEE802.3az (Energy Efficient Ethernet Standard), and provides power-saving benefits without compromising performance.
Key feature differences between Switch models are as follows. Other features are common to all models.

1.2 Applications

This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments.
1.2.1 Bridging Application
In this example the Switch connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch.
Figure 1 Bridging Application
1.2.2 VLAN Application Example
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one or more groups. With VLAN, a station cannot directly talk to or hear from stations that are not in the same group(s) unless such traffic first goes through a router.
1.2.2.1 Tag-based VLAN Example
Ports in the same VLAN group share the same frame broadcast domain, thus increasing network performance by reducing broadcast traffic. VLAN groups can be modified at any time by adding, moving or changing ports without any re-cabling.
GS1200 Series User’s Guide
10
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
Shared resources such as a server can be used by all ports in the same VLAN as the server. In the following figure only ports that need access to the server need to be part of VLAN1. Ports can belong to other VLAN groups too.
Figure 2 Shared Server Using VLAN Example

1.3 Ways to Manage the Switch

Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
• Web Configurator. This allows easy Switch setup and management using a (supported) web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 16.

1.4 Good Habits for Managing the Switch

Do the following things regularly to make the Switch more secure and to manage the Switch more effectively.
• Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
• Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
• Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you forget your password, you will have to reset the Switch to its factory default settings. If you backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the Switch. You could simply restore your last configuration.

Hardware Installation

2.1 Installation Scenarios

This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.
The Switch can be placed on a desktop. Use the rubber feet in a desktop installation.

2.2 Desktop Installation Procedure

1 Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.
2 Set the Switch on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the Switch and the
connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
CHAPTER 2
3 Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the attachment of
cables and the power cord.
Note: Make sure you are using the correct type of Ethernet cable (Category 5e, 6UTP/STP, or
better Ethernet cable).
GS1200 Series User’s Guide

4.1 Overview

This section introduces the configuration and functions of the web configurator.
The web configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy Switch setup and management via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 10.0 and later versions, Mozilla Firefox 46.0.1 and later versions, or Google Chrome 50.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the web configurator you need to allow:
• Web browser pop-up windows from your device.
• JavaScript (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
CHAPTER 4

The Web Configurator

4.2 System Login

1 Start your web browser.
2 Type “http://” and the IP address of the Switch (for example, the default management IP address is
192.168.1.3) in the Location or Address field. Press [ENTER]. Your computer must be in the same subnet in
order to access this website address.
3 The login screen appears. The default password is 1234.
Figure 11 Web Configurator: Login
4 The following screen displays if you log into the Switch for the first time. Enter a new password, retype it to
confirm and click Apply to view the first web configurator screen. Note that you can enter the default password 1234 again, if you don’t want to change your password.

4.3.1 Change Your Password
After you log in for the first time, it is recommended you change the default administrator password. Click Management to display the next screen to change your login password.
Figure 14 Change Administrator Login Password

4.4 Switch Lockout

You could block yourself (and all others) from managing the Switch if you do one of the following:
1 Remove all ports from VLAN1 and you do not configure other VLAN groups.
2 Forget the password and/or IP address.
GS1200 Series User’s Guide
19
Chapter 4 The Web Configurator
3 You forgot to log out of the Switch from a computer before logging in again on another computer.
Note: Be careful not to lock yourself and others out of the Switch.

4.5 Resetting the Switch

If you forget the administrator password or cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need to use the Reset button at the front panel of the device to reset the Switch back to the factory defaults.
This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously and the password will be reset to “1234”. IP address will also be reset to 192.168.1.3
1 Make sure the PWR/SYS LED is on (not blinking).
2 To set the device back to the factory default settings, press the Reset button for ten seconds or until the
PWR/SYS LED begins to blink and then release it. When the PWR/SYS LED begins to blink, the defaults have been restored and the device restarts.

4.6 Logging Out of the Web Configurator

Click the Logout icon in a screen to exit the web configurator. You have to log in with your password again after you log out. This is recommended after you finish a management session for security reasons.

Initial Setup Example

5.1 Overview

This chapter shows how to set up the Switch for an example network.
The following lists the configuration steps for the initial setup:
• Creating a VLAN
• Setting Port VID
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) Configuration
5.1.1 Creating a VLAN
VLANs confine broadcast frames to the VLAN group in which the port(s) belongs. You can create a VLAN group with fixed port members to do this.
CHAPTER 5
In this example, you want to configure port 1 as a member of VLAN 2.
Figure 15 Initial Setup Network Example: VLAN
1 Click VLAN in the navigation panel and click the Create New VLAN button.
