Syntax Conventions
• The GS2200-8, GS2200-8HP, GS2200-24 and GS2200-24P may be referred to as the “Switch”,
the “device”, the “system” or the “product” in this User’s Guide. Differentiation is made where
needed.
• Product labels, screen names, field labels and field choices are all in bold font.
• A key stroke is denoted by square brackets and uppercase text, for example, [ENTER] means the
“enter” or “return” key on your keyboard.
• “Enter” means for you to type one or more characters and then press the [ENTER] key. “Select”
or “choose” means for you to use one of the predefined choices.
• A right angle bracket ( > ) within a screen name denotes a mouse click. For example,
Maintenance > Log > Log Setting means you first click Maintenance in the navigation panel,
then the Log sub menu and finally the Log Setting tab to get to that screen.
• Units of measurement may denote the “metric” value or the “scientific” value. For example, “k”
for kilo may denote “1000” or “1024”, “M” for mega may denote “1000000” or “1048576” and so
on.
• “e.g.,” is a shorthand for “for instance”, and “i.e.,” means “that is” or “in other words”.

CHAPTER 1
Getting to Know Your Switch
1.1 Introduction
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch.
The Switch is a layer-2 standalone Ethernet switch with additional layer-2, layer-3, and layer-4
features suitable for Ethernets. The Switch has eight or twenty-four 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet ports.
It also has two or four GbE dual personality interfaces with each interface comprising one mini-
GBIC slot and one 100/1000 Mbps RJ-45 port, with either port or slot active at a time.
With its built-in web configurator, managing and configuring the Switch is easy. In addition, the
Switch can also be managed via Telnet, any terminal emulator program on the console port, or
third-party SNMP management.
The G2200-24P and G2200-8HP come with a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) feature. The GS2200-8HP
supports the IEEE 802.3at High Power over Ethernet (PoE) standard and the GS2200-24P supports
the IEEE 802.3af PoE standard. Ports 1 to 4 on the GS2200-8HP can supply power of up to 30W per
Ethernet port. Ports 5 to 8 on the GS2200-8HP and ports 1 to 24 on the GS2200-24P can supply
power of up to 15.4W per Ethernet port.
Key feature differences between Switch models are as follows. Other features are common to all
models. See Chapter 43 on page 307 for a full list of software features available on the Switch.
This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments.
1.1.1 Backbone 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.
Figure 1 Backbone Application
1.1.2 Bridging Example
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/mini-GBIC
port on the Switch.
Moreover, the Switch eases supervision and maintenance by allowing network managers to
centralize multiple servers at a single location.
Figure 2 Bridging Application
1.1.3 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.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
GS2200-8/24 User’s Guide
25
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 3 High Performance Switched Workgroup Application
1.1.4 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 83.
1.1.4.1 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.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
GS2200-8/24 User’s Guide
26
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.
Figure 4 Shared Server Using VLAN Example
1.2 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 39 .
• 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 34.6.1 on
page 259.
• SNMP. The Switch can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See Section 35.7.1 on page 270.
• Cluster Management. Cluster Management allows you to manage multiple switches through one
switch, called the cluster manager. See Chapter 38 on page 290.
1.3 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 Sw itch. Y ou
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 or rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack. Use the rubber
feet in a desktop installation and the brackets in a rack-mounted installation.
Note: For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front and
3.4 inches (8 cm) at the back of the Switch. This is especially imp o rtant for
enclosed rack installations.
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.
3 Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the attachment
of cables and the power cord.
2.3 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
The Switch can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other
equipment. Follow the steps below to mount your Switch on a standard EIA rack using a rack-
mounting kit.
2.3.1 Rack-mounted Installation Requirements
• Two mounting brackets.
• Eight M3 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
• Four M5 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
2.3.1.1 Precautions
• Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS2200-8/24 User’s Guide
28
• Make sure the position of the Switch does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all
necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.
2.3.2 Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch
1 Position a mounting bracket on one side of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes on the br acket
with the screw holes on the side of the Switch.
Figure 5 Attaching the Mounting Brackets
2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M3 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes
into the Switch.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the second mounting bracket on the other side of the Switch.
4 You may now mount the Switch on a rack. Proceed to the next section.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS2200-8/24 User’s Guide
29
2.3.3 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
1 Position a mounting bracket (that is already attached to the Switch) on one side of the rack, lining
up the two screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the rack.
Figure 6 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M5 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes
into the rack.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to attach the second mounting bracket on the other side of the rack.
2.4 W all Mounting (for GS2200-8 only)
Do the following to attach your Switch to a wall.
Insecure mounting may damage the device or cause injury . ZyXEL is not
responsible for damages incurred by insecure wall-mounting.
1 Screw the two screws provided with your Switch into the wall 135 mm apart (see Figure 7 on page
30). See Figure 8 on page 30 for the size of screws to use.
Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the screw
and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection
cables to run down the back of the Switch.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the
weight of the Switch with the connection cables.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
GS2200-8/24 User’s Guide

2 Align the holes on the back of the Switch with the screws on the wall. Hang the Switch on the
screws.
Figure 7 Wall-mounting Example
The Switch should be wall-mounted horizontally. The Switch's side
panels with ventilation slots should not be facing up or down as this
position is less safe.
The following are dimensions of a self-tapping screw and masonry plug used for wall mounting. All
measurements are in millimeters (mm).
