An MDF (Main Distribution Frame) is the point of termination for the telephone company and in-building
telephone lines. Use standard telephone wire to connect the RJ-11 ports (numbered 1-14) on the PES-1014 to Y­connectors and then the MDF.

The following diagram shows the connections between the RJ-11 phoneline networking ports and the customer’s
equipment. “CO” stands for the telephone company. Install an MDF with surge protection circuitry (MDF-1 in the

Trunk

6.1 Introduction

“Trunking” means aggregating multiple low-speed physical links onto a single higher-speed logical link. For
example, two Fast Ethernet (100Mbps) links could be aggregated into one single 200Mbps link.

Trunking is an advanced feature of the PES-1014. Exercise extreme caution if you decide to configure

these menus.

Configure up to four trunks with two to four ports in each trunk. The last number of the trunk set must be port 2, 6,
10, or 14. Within each trunk set, you may freely gather two to four ports into one trunk. For example, you cannot
group ports 2 and 3 to form a trunk, because they are not in the same trunk set; but you can use ports 3, 4 and 6 to
form a trunk. Ethernet port A is trunk port A and RJ 11 port 1 is trunk port 1.

6.2 Load-balancing Methods

There are two load-balancing methods for aggregating ports onto a trunk.

6.2.1 MAC-based Load-balancing

You can only use this method of you are aggregating the maximum of four ports into one trunk. It determines
which port to forward an incoming packet to by examining two bits (that you designate) of its source MAC address
and destination MAC address.

6.2.2 Port-based Load-balancing

Using this method, you have to determine which trunk port to link with a non-trunk port so that the load is balanced
among all trunk ports.

6.3 Trunk Menus

trunk(s). Each trunk selected must contain four ports. Once a trunk is selected, the corresponding four ports will
trunk automatically according to the your MAC Based Mode Bit Selection.

Figure 6-4 MAC-based Mode Trunk Configuration Screen

MAC Address Based Mode Bit Selection

Port trunking is determined by a packet’s source MAC address (SA) and destination MAC address (DA). Select
which bit-pair ([0:1], [2:3], [4:5], [6:7]) you want the management system to select from the SA and DA of each
incoming Ethernet data packet. The management system then maps the packet to a port according to the procedure
discussed next.

VLAN

7.1 Introduction

VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) is basically a broadcast domain. In an ordinary switched network system, a
broadcast packet or an unknown destination MAC address packet is broadcasted to all ports and that will decrease
network performance dramatically. By grouping some ports into one VLAN, broadcast packets will be sent only to
the ports within that VLAN without affecting the traffic of other ports. Any two or more ports can be grouped as
one VLAN in the device, and an overlapping VLAN port is permitted.

Move the cursor over the VLAN link to display the submenus shown in the next figure.

• VLAN Group 1 is the default VLAN setting, with all ports included. You must disable VLAN Group 1 for new

VLAN groups to take effect.

• Enabling STP enables the default VLAN automatically. Disabling the default VLAN disables STP and vice

Forwarding DB (Database)

8.1 Introduction

The switch will check the forwarding database before sending data packets to make sure all of the packets are sent
correctly. The forwarding database (address table, look up table, forwarding table) can be built by dynamic
(automatic) address learning or by static (manual) entry. When using dynamic address learning, it is possible to age
out certain entries if aging control is enabled and the aging time expires; but it is also keeps updating for new
packets received with different SAs.

The switch does not age out or update static entries. The only way to change the static entries is through manual
editing in the Edit Static Entry screen.

Moving the cursor over the Forwarding DB link brings up the following submenus.

Figure 8-1 Forwarding Database Bar

Enabling the Security setting for a port in the Port Configuration screen (5.3) automatically disables the aging

out timer for that port and changes it to a static entry in the forwarding database.

STP

10.1 Introduction

Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is IEEE standard (802.1d) that avoids looping in the network while maintaining
multiple Ethernet bridges. STP can avoid loops by placing ports in forwarding state or in blocking state to establish
redundant paths. When STP is enabled, the switch will execute STP Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) packets as
below:

• If the port is in Block-N-Listen State or Learning State, the BPDU packet is forwarded to the CPU, other

packets are discarded.

• If the port is in the Forwarding State, the BPDU packet is forwarded to the CPU, all other packets are normally

forwarded based on the switch engine decision.

Move the cursor over STP to bring up the following submenus.

becoming the root bridge. Bridge Priority can be set from 0 to 65535.

elected. Bridge Hello Time can be set from 1 to 10 seconds, the default value is
set at 2 seconds.

Bridges will begin to send BPDU packets for electing a new Root Bridge if they
receive no BPDU packets from the Root Bridge for longer than the time period in

Listening acts as blocking state, it does not forward any packet, except BPDU
packets, and enters the learning state when possible.

packets, and immediately discarded.

Safety Warnings and Instructions

1. Be sure to read and follow all warning notices and instructions.

2. The maximum recommended ambient temperature for the PES-1014 is 50º Celsius. Care must be taken to allow

sufficient air circulation or space between units when the PES-1014 is installed inside a closed rack assembly.
The operating ambient temperature of the rack environment might be greater than room temperature.

3. Installation in a rack without sufficient airflow can be unsafe.

4. Racks should safely support the combined weight of all equipment.

5. The connections and equipment that supply power to the PES-1014 should be capable of operating safely with

the maximum power requirements of the PES-1014. In case of a power overload, the supply circuits and supply
wiring should not become hazardous. The input rating of the PES-1014 is printed on the nameplate.

6. The power cord must plug in to the right supply voltage, i.e. 110VAC for North America and 230VAC for

Europe. Make sure that the supplied AC voltage is correct and stable.

7. Installation in restricted access areas must comply with Articles 110-16, 110-17, and 110-18 of the National

Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

8. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord and do not locate the product where anyone can walk on the

power cord.

9. Do not service the product by yourself. Opening or removing covers can expose you to dangerous high voltage

points or other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

10. Generally, when installed after the final configuration, the product must comply with the applicable safety

standards and regulatory requirements of the country in which it is installed. If necessary, consult the
appropriate regulatory agencies and inspection authorities to ensure compliance.

11. A rare condition can create a voltage potential between the earth grounds of two or more buildings. If products

installed in separate building are interconnected, the voltage potential can cause a hazardous condition. Consult
a qualified electrical consultant to determine whether or not this phenomenon exists and, if necessary,
implement corrective action before interconnecting the products. If the equipment is to be used with
telecommunications circuit, take the following precautions:

• Never install or modify telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in a wet location unless the jack is specially designed for use in wet locations.

• Never touch uninsulated (bare) telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been

disconnected at the network interface.
