CHAPTER 1

Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1 Introduction

The GS1350 Series consists of the following models:
GS1350-6HP
GS1350-12HP
GS1350-18HP
GS1350-26HP
All models are referred to as the “Switch” in this guide. The Switch can be configured and managed by
the web configurator. It can also be managed via Telnet or third-party SNMP management.
The following table describes the hardware features of the Switch by model.
1.1.1 ZON Utility
With its built-in web configurator, including the Neighbor Management feature (Section 7.2.1 on page
77), viewing, managing and configuring the Switch and its neighboring devices is easy.
In addition, Zyxel offers a proprietary software program called Zyxel One Network (ZON) Utility, it is a
utility tool that assists you to set up and maintain network devices in a more simple and efficient way.
You can download the ZON Utility at www.zyxel.com and install it on a PC (Windows operation system).
For more information on ZON Utility see Section 4.3 on page 44.

1.1.2 PoE
The Switch is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) because it provides a source of power via its Ethernet
ports. Each device that receives power through an Ethernet port is a Powered Device (PD).
The Switch can adjust the power supplied to each PD according to the PoE standard the PD supports.
PoE standards are:
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE)
IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE) Plus
IEEE 802.3bt 4PPoE Type 3
The following table describes the PoE features of the Switch by model.

1.2 Example Applications

This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments. Note that the
Switch in the figure is just an example Switch and not your actual Switch.
1.2.1 PoE Example Application
The following example figure shows a Switch supplying PoE (Power over Ethernet) to Powered Devices
(PDs) such as an IP camera, a wireless router, an IP telephone and a general outdoor router that are not
within reach of a power outlet.

Figure 1 PoE Example Application
1.2.2 Backbone Example Application
The Switch is an ideal solution for small networks where rapid growth can be expected in the near future.
The Switch can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers and
servers directly to the Switch’s port or connect other switches to the Switch.
In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server. To expand the network,
simply add more networking devices such as switches, routers, computers, print servers etc.

GS1350 Series User’s Guide
21
Figure 2 Backbone Application
1.2.3 Bridging / Fiber Uplink Example 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. You can
provide a super-fast uplink connection by using a Gigabit Ethernet/SFP port on the Switch.
Figure 3 Bridging / Fiber Uplink Example Application
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
GS1350 Series User’s Guide
22
1.2.4 High Performance Switching Example
The Switch is ideal for connecting two networks that need high bandwidth. In the following example, use
trunking to connect these two networks.
Switching to higher-speed LANs such as ATM (Asynchronous Transmission Mode) is not feasible for most
people due to the expense of replacing all existing Ethernet cables and adapter cards, restructuring
your network and complex maintenance. The Switch can provide the same bandwidth as ATM at much
lower cost while still being able to use existing adapters and switches. Moreover, the current LAN
structure can be retained as all ports can freely communicate with each other.
Figure 4 High Performance Switched Workgroup Application
1.2.5 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Examples
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 group. A station can belong to more than one
group. 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.
For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 9 on page 109.
1.2.5.1 Tag-based VLAN Example
Ports in the same VLAN group share the same frame broadcast domain thus increase network
performance through reduced broadcast traffic. VLAN groups can be modified at any time by adding,
moving or changing ports without any re-cabling.
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 VLAN 1. Ports can belong to
other VLAN groups too.

1.3 Ways to Manage the Switch

Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported)
web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 40.
Command Line Interface. Line commands offer an alternative to the web configurator and in some
cases are necessary to configure advanced features. See the CLI Reference Guide.
FTP. Use FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See Section 31.7.1 on page
245.
SNMP. The Switch can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See Section 32.7.1 on page 258.
Cluster Management. Cluster Management allows you to manage multiple switches through one
switch, called the cluster manager. See Chapter 35 on page 277.
ZON Utility. ZON Utility is a program designed to help you deploy and perform initial setup on a
network more efficiently. See Section 4.3 on page 44.
NCC (Zyxel Nebula Control Center). With the NCC, you can remotely manage and monitor the
Switch through a cloud-based network management system. See Section 8.12 on page 106 or the
NCC User’s Guide for detailed information about how to access the NCC and manage your Switch
via the NCC. See the NCC User’s Guide for how to configure Nebula managed devices.

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.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
GS1350 Series User’s Guide
24
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.

CHAPTER 2
Hardware Installation and
Connection

2.1 Installation Scenarios

This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.
The Switch can be:
Placed on a desktop.
Wall-mounted on a wall
Rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack.
Note: Ask an authorized technician to attach the Switch under a desk or to the rack/wall. See
the Installation Requirements sections in this chapter to know the types of screws and
screw drivers for each mounting method.
WARNING! Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
See Table 1 on page 18 for the comparison table of the hardware installation methods for each model.
To start using the Switch, simply connect the power cables and turn it on.
WARNING! The surface of the Switch could be hot when it’s functioning.
Do NOT put your hands on it. You may get burned. This could happen
especially when you’re using the GS1350-6HP. It’s a compact and
fanless Switch capable of supplying Power over Ethernet (PoE).
WARNING! The Switches with fans are not suitable for use in locations
where children are likely to be present.

2.2 Desktop Installation Procedure

1 Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.
2 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
3 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the Switch. These rubber feet help protect the
Switch from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when stacking.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS1350 Series User’s Guide
26
Note: To make sure of air circulation, do NOT remove the rubber feet.
Figure 6 Attaching Rubber Feet
4 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.
5 Make sure there is at least 40 mm of clearance around and from the surface to the bottom of the Switch
to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord.
Note: Make sure that you meet the requirements of clearance when you use the Switch for
stacking. It’s recommended to only use the Switch with fans in a stack. See Table 1 on
page 18 to see whether your Switch has fans.
WARNING! Do NOT block the ventilation holes nor store things on the
Switch. Allow clearance for the ventilation holes to prevent your Switch
from overheating. This is especially crucial when your Switch doesn’t
have fans. Overheating could affect the performance of your Switch, or
even damage it.

2.3 Wall Mounting

The Switch can be mounted on a wall (see Table 1 on page 18). You may need screw anchors if
mounting on a concrete or brick wall.
2.3.1 Installation Requirements
Distance above the floor: At least 1.8 m (5.9 feet)
Distance between holes: 78 mm (3.071 inches)
Two M4 screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver
Two screw anchors (optional)
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS1350 Series User’s Guide
27
1 Select a position free of obstructions on a wall strong enough to hold the weight of the Switch.
2 Mark two holes on the wall at the appropriate distance apart for the screws.
WARNING! Be careful to avoid damaging pipes or cables located inside
the wall when drilling holes for the screws.
3 If using screw anchors, drill two holes for the screw anchors into the wall. Push the anchors into the full
depth of the holes, then insert the screws into the anchors. Do not insert the screws all the way in - leave
a small gap of about 0.5 cm.
If not using screw anchors, use a screwdriver to insert the screws into the wall. Do not insert the screws all
the way in - leave a gap of about 0.5 cm.
4 Make sure the screws are fastened well enough to hold the weight of the Switch with the connection
cables.
5 Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the screws.
Note: Make sure there is enough clearance between the wall and the Switch to allow
ventilation.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS1350 Series User’s Guide
28
WARNING! The Switch should be wall-mounted horizontally, and make sure
the front panel is facing down. The Switch's side panels with ventilation slots
should not be facing up or down as this position is less safe.

2.4 Rack Mounting

The Switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other
equipment (see Table 1 on page 18). Follow the steps below to mount your Switch on a standard EIA
rack using a rack-mounting kit.
Note: Make sure there is enough clearance between each equipment on the rack for air
circulation.
