CHAPTER 1

Getting to Know Your Switch

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch.

1.1 Introduction

Your Switch is a stackable, layer-3, Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) switch with two power slots for dual power supply modules. The Switch comes with 4 GbE dual personality interfaces. A dual personality interface includes one Gigabit port and one slot for a SFP module with one port active at a time. The Switch provides four SFP+ slots for uplink. The last two SFP+ slots can also be used for stacking. When working in stacking mode, the Switch can operate together with other XGS4600 stackable switches and allows you to remotely manage them from one switch using one single IP address. 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: XGS4600-32, XGS4600-32F and XGS4600-52F.
Table 1 Switch Comparison Table
FEATURES XGS4600-32 XGS4600-32F XGS4600-52F
Stacking Mode
24 10/100/1000Base-T Ethernet ports
24 SFP slots
48 SFP slots
4 GbE Combo ports (Dual Personality Interfaces)
4 10GbE SFP+ slots
With its built-in web configurator, including the Zyxel One Network (ZON) Neighbor Management feature (Section 5.4 on page 52), 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 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. For more information on ZON Utility see Section 5.3 on page 52.
See the datasheet for a full list of software features available on the Switch.
1.1.1 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
XGS4600 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
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 10 Gigabit uplink ports on the Switch.
Figure 1 Bridging Application
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 10 Gigabit uplink ports 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
XGS4600 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
switches to the Switch. Use the 10 Gigabit uplink ports to provide high speed access to a data server and the Internet. The uplink ports support 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.
For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 7 on page 92.
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.
XGS4600 Series User’s Guide

Figure 4 Shared Server Using VLAN Example
1.1.5 IPv6 Support
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch
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 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 C on page 546 and the CLI Reference Guide.
1.1.6 Stacking Mode
The Switch can work in stacking mode and directly connect to other switches. The switches then operate together and act as a single switch or a virtual chassis. The stackable switches can be managed from a master switch in the stack. See Section 6.9 on page 84 for more information about stacking.

IP addresses. At the time
Note: To set the Switch to stacking mode, go to the Basic Setting > Stacking > Configuration
screen (see Section 6.9.3 on page 88).
Note: When the Switch is in stacking mode, it uses the default static IP address 192.168.1.1.

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 38.
• 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
51.9 on page 470.
• SNMP. The device can be monitored and/or managed by an SNMP manager. See Section 52.3 on
page 474.

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 Switch. You could simply restore your last configuration.

Connection
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.
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 6 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.
2.2.1 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.
2.2.1.1 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 21.5 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.
2.2.2 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 bracket with
the screw holes on the side of the Switch. Figure 7 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.
