This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch.
1.1 Introduction
Your Switch is a layer 2+, Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switch with two power slots for hot-swappable
RPS300 or RPS600-HP power modules. The Switch provides four SFP or SFP+ slots for uplink. By
integrating router functions, the Switch performs wire-speed layer -3 routing in addition to layer-2
switching.
This User’s Guide covers the following models: GS3700-24, GS3700-24HP, GS3700-48, GS370048HP, XGS3700-24, XGS3700-24HP, XGS3700-48, and XGS3700-48HP.

With its built-in web configurator, including the ZyXEL One Network (ZON) Neighbor Management
feature (Section 5.4 on page 49), viewing, managing and configuring the Switch and its
neighboring devices 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.
In addition, ZyXEL offers a proprietary software progr am called Z yXEL 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. For more
information on ZON Utility see Section 5.3 on page 49.
See the datasheet for a full list of software features available on the Switch.

1.1.1 Bridging Example
Backbone
RD
Sales
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 the optional 10 Gigabit uplink
module on the Switch.
Figure 1 Bridging Application
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
1.1.2 High Performance Switching Example
The Switch is ideal for connecting two geographically dispersed networks that need high bandwidth.
In the following example, a company uses the optional 10 Gigabit uplink modules to connect the
headquarters to a branch office network. Within the headquarters network, a company can use
trunking to group several physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. Trunking can be used
if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed,
but more costly, single-port link.

Figure 2 High Performance Switching
1.1.3 Gigabit Ethernet to the Desktop
The Switch is an ideal solution for small networks which demand high bandwidth 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. Use the optional 10 Gigabit uplink module to provide high speed
access to a data server and the Internet. The uplink module supports a fiber-optic connection which
alleviates the distance limitations of copper cabling.
In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server and access the
Internet. To expand the network, simply add more networking devices such as switches, routers,
computers, print servers and so on.
Figure 3 Gigabit to the Desktop
1.1.4 IEEE 802.1Q 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.
GS3700/XGS3700 Series User’s Guide
23
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 7 on page 101.
1.1.4.1 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.
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
1.1.5 IPv6 Support
IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to enhance IP address size and features. The
increase in IPv6 address size to 128 bits (from the 32-bit IPv4 address) allows up to 3.4 x 10
addresses. At the time of writing, the Switch supports the following features.
• Static address assignment and stateless auto-configuration
• Neighbor Discovery Protocol (a protocol used to discover other IPv6 devices in a network)
• Remote Management using ping SNMP, telnet, HTTP and FTP services
• ICMPv6 to report errors encountered in packet processing and perform diagnostic functions, such
as "ping”
• IPv4/IPv6 dual stack; the Switch can run IPv4 and IPv6 at the same time
• DHCPv6 client and relay
• Multicast Listener Discovery (MLD) snooping and proxy
For more information on IPv6, refer to Appendix B on page 517 and the CLI Reference Guide.
1.2 Ways to Manage the Switch
Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch.
38
IP
GS3700/XGS3700 Series User’s Guide
24
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
• Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a
(supported) web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 37.
• Command Line Interface. Line commands offer an alternative to the Web Configurator and may
be necessary to configure advanced features. See the CLI Reference Guide.
• FTP. Use File Transfer Protocol for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See
Section 47.9 on page 455.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored and/or managed by an SNMP manager. See Section 48.3 on
page 459.
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.

Hardware Installation and Connection
This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch.
2.1 Freestanding Installation
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.
4 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
CHAPTER 2
5 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.
Figure 5 Attaching Rubber Feet
Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes. Leave space between devices when stacking.
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 important for
enclosed rack installations.

2.2 Mounting the Switch on a Rack
This section lists the rack mounting requirements and precautions and describes the installation
steps of how to mount the Switch in a 19-inch rack with the included rack mounting kit.
Note: ZyXEL provides extensible rear mounting brackets (RM400) to install the Swi tch in
a 21-inch, 23-inch or 24-inch rack. See the RM400 Hardware Installation
Guide.
2.3 Installation Requirements
• Two front mounting brackets (short), two sliding rails and two rear mounting brackets.
• Eight M4 metric screws with large heads and a #2 Philips screwdriver for attaching the brackets
to the Switch.
• Four M4 metric screws with small heads and a #2 Philips screwdriver for attaching the sliding
rails to the Switch.
• Eight M6 metric rack screws and a screwdriver for attaching the Switch (with attached brackets)
to the rack. Rack depth can be from 90 to 120 cm.
Note: Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
2.3.1 Precautions
• Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains. The
maximum weight a bracket can hold is 27 Kg.
• 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.
2.4 Attaching the Brackets to the Switch
Use the M4 screws (smaller than the rack screws) to attach the brackets to the Switch.
1 Position the smaller front mounting bracket on one si de of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes
on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the Switch.
2 Use a #2 Philips screwdriver to install the M4 screws with large heads through the mounting
bracket holes into the Switch.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the second front mounting bracket on the other side of the Switch.
4 Position a sliding rail on one side at the rear of the Switch, lining up the two screw holes on the
sliding rail with the screw holes on the side of the Switch.
5 Use a screwdriver to install the M4 screws with small heads through the sliding rail holes into the
Switch.
6 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the second sliding rail on the other side of the Switch.
