Getting to Know Your Switch

1.1 Introduction

This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the Switch. The XS1920 Series consist of the following models at the time of writing:

• XS1920-12

The Switch is a 10G Ethernet web-managed switch with layer-2, layer-3, and layer-4 features.

With its built-in web configurator, including the ZyXEL One Network (ZON) Neighbor Management feature (Section 7.3 on page 56), viewing, managing and configuring the Switch and its neighboring devices is easy. The Switch can also be managed via third-party SNMP management.

ZyXEL One Network (ZON) Utility is a tool that lets set up and maintain network devices in a simple and efficient way. You can download the ZON Utility at www.zyxel.com and install it on a computer. For more information on the ZON Utility see Section 7.3 on page 56.

The following table describes the port features of the 10G Switch. 100Mbps connections are not guaranteed.

Table 1 Port Features

SWITCH MODEL	PORT FEATURES
XS1920-12	•	12 10 Gbps Ethernet ports
	•	2 1G/10G SFP+fiber ports

The next 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.

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

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.

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

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

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 92.

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.

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

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch

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 33.

•FTP. Use FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See Section 39.3.1 on page 340.

•SNMP. The Switch can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See Section 40.5 on page 350.

•Cluster Management. Cluster Management allows you to manage multiple switches through one switch, called the cluster manager. See Chapter 44 on page 367.

1.3Good 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. See Section 3.4 on page 30 for how to reset the Switch.

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 important for enclosed rack installations.

2.2 Desktop Installation Procedure

1Make sure the Switch is clean and dry.

2Set 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.

3Make sure there is enough clearance around the Switch to allow air circulation and the attachment of cables and the power cord.

2.3Rack Mounting

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 rackmounting kit.

2.3.1Rack-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.

2.3.1.1Precautions

•Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains.

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection

•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.

2.3.2Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch

1Position 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 5 Attaching the Mounting Brackets

2Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M3 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes into the Switch.

3Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the second mounting bracket on the other side of the Switch.

4You may now mount the Switch on a rack. Proceed to the next section.

2.3.3Mounting the Switch on a Rack

1Position 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.

Hardware Panels

This chapter describes the front panel and rear panel of the Switch and shows you how to make the hardware connections.

3.1 Front Panel

The following figures show the front panel of the Switch. See Section 3.3 on page 30 for information on the LEDs. The reset button is also located here as circled below. See Section 3.4 on page 30 for more information on using that.

		Uplink Ports/Slots

The following table describes the ports.

Table 2 Panel Connections

CONNECTOR	DESCRIPTION
Ports 1-10	These are 100Mbps/1Gbps/10Gbps RJ-45 Ethernet ports.
	Connect these ports to a computer, a hub, an Ethernet switch or router.

Ports 11-12	These are 100Mbps/1Gbps/10Gbps RJ-45 combo uplink ports. The fiber port connection
Ethernet	takes priority if the corresponding Ethernet uplink port is also connected.
	Connect these ports to high-bandwidth backbone network Ethernet switches using 100/
	1000/10G Base-T cables.

Ports 11-12 Fiber	These are SFP / SFP+ uplink Slots Use SFP transceivers in these slots for fiber-optic to
	backbone Ethernet switches.

3.1.1 Gigabit Ethernet Ports

Ports 1-10 on the Switch are 100Mbps/1Gbps/10Gbps auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports with full duplex support.

An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed of the connected device. Auto-1000M / Full-Duplex supports Ethernet and fiber connections at 100Mbps or

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 3 Hardware Panels

1000Mbps (1Gbps) full-duplex mode. Auto-10G / Full-Duplex supports Ethernet connections at 100Mbps, 1000Mbps or 10Gbps full-duplex mode and 10Gbps only for fiber connections.

When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port negotiates with the peer automatically to determine the connection speed. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the Switch determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on the cable. When the Switch’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet port uses the pre-configured speed when making a connection, thus requiring you to make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.

An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover Ethernet cable.

Ports 11 and 12 are Ethernet ports paired with Ports 11 and 12 SGP/SFP+ (fiber) slots. The Switch uses one of either the Ethernet or fiber connection with the fiber connection having priority if the corresponding Ethernet port is also connected. This means that if Port 11 fiber slot and Port 11 Ethernet port are connected at the same time, then Ethernet port 11 will be disabled. Ethernet and fiber ports 12 work the same way.

3.1.1.1 Default Ethernet Negotiation Settings

The factory default negotiation settings for the Ethernet ports on the Switch are:

•Speed: Auto

•Duplex: Full

•Flow control: Off

•Link Aggregation: Disabled

3.1.2SFP/SFP+ Slots

Fiber ports 11 and 12 are slots for Small Form-Factor Pluggable (Plus) modules, such as an SFP or SFP+ transceivers. SFP+ is an enhanced version of SFP and supports data rates of 10 Gbps. A transceiver is a single unit that houses a transmitter and a receiver. Use a transceiver to connect a fiber-optic cable to the Switch. The Switch does not come with transceivers. You must use transceivers that comply with the Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP) Transceiver MultiSource Agreement (MSA). See the SFF committee’s INF-8074i specification Rev 1.0 for details.

You can change transceivers while the Switch is operating. You can use different transceivers to connect to Ethernet switches with different types of fiber-optic connectors.

•Type: SFP/SFP+ connection interface

•Connection speed: 1 or 10 Gigabit per second (Gbps)

3.1.2.1Transceiver Installation

Use the following steps to install a mini-GBIC transceiver (SFP+ module).

1Insert the transceiver into the slot with the exposed section of PCB board facing down.

2Press the transceiver firmly until it clicks into place.

XS1920 Series User’s Guide

Chapter 3 Hardware Panels

3The Switch automatically detects the installed transceiver. Check the LEDs to verify that it is functioning properly.

4Close the transceiver’s latch (latch styles vary).

5Connect the fiber optic cables to the transceiver. Figure 8 Transceiver Installation Example

Figure 9 Connecting the Fiber Optic Cables

3.1.2.2Transceiver Removal

Use the following steps to remove a mini-GBIC transceiver (SFP+ module).

1Remove the fiber optic cables from the transceiver.

2Open the transceiver’s latch (latch styles vary).

3Pull the transceiver out of the slot.
