-6- 1. Unpacking Information Thank you for purchasing the 24-port Gigabit W eb Smart Switch. Before you start, please check all the contents of this package. The product package should include the following: 1. One 24-port Gigabit W eb Smart Switch 2.
-7- 2. Introduction to 24-port Gigabit Web Smart Switch 2.1 General Description The device is a 24-port 10/100/1000Mbps Ethernet W eb Smart Switch. Compare to the traditional 10/100Mbps Ethernet, the switch delivers a dedicated Gigabit connection to every attached client with no congestion issue.
-8- 2.3 The Front Panel The front panel of the switch is shown as below: Port Operation There are 24 * 1000Mbps RJ-45 (copper) ports on the front panel.
-9- Port LED summary table LEDs Status Interpretation 10/100M Steady /Blinking Amber Connected as 10Mbps/Active Steady/Blinking green Connected as 100Mbps/Active 1000M Steady/Blinking green Connected .
-10- 3. Installing 24-Port Gigabit Web Smart Switch This switch can be placed directly on your desktop, or mounted in a rack. Users can immediately use most of the features simply by attaching the cables and turning the power on.
-11- 3.3 Installing Network Cables Station Connections Reference to the wiring statement of the previous section; connect each station to the switch with correct type of cables. Switch-to-Switch Connections In making a switch-to-switch connection, use every ports to connect another switch or backbone is strongly recommended.
-12- 4. Functional Description 4.1 PHY Monitoring and Port Mode Set-up It is a major task of the software to continuously monitor the PHYs in order to set up the switch ports according to whether the link is down or up and in the latter case what the current speed, duplex mode and pause capabilities are.
-13- 5. Web Management guide This section instructs you how to enter and set up the configurations, which can be accessed by RS- 232 serial port (out-of-band) on the rear panel or by Internet Browser over the network (in-band). Factory Default value: IP : 192.
-14- 3. After authentication procedure, the home page shows up. 5.2 Home Page On the Home page, you can select the configuration by clicking the menu tabs located on the upside of the UI.
-15- T o restore the default V alues of switch, click the [Default] button. If you want to reboot the switch, click the [Reboot] button. T o check the connection status of each port from 1 to 24, take a look at the port monitor . When the port shows green , it is connected and link up.
-16- 5.2.1 System T o set up the system configurations such as login value, time-out value and enabling the VLAN Man- agement. Status & Setting Functions Mac Address The Mac Address of the switch S/W V ersion T o check up the Software V ersion, see this.
-17- 5.2.2 Ports On the page, you can view the Port status, set up the Speed mode and enable the FDX flow control. Status & Settings Functions L i n k T o show the status of each port. When it is red, it means the connection is down. Otherwise, it is green.
-18- 5.2.3 VLAN VLAN Configuration is for dividing the LAN into subnet groups for better network management. The benefit is that the user can move one client to another subnet group without actually moving the ma- chine. VLAN Entry There are 24 entries to set up.
-19- PVID When the VLAN-enabled switch receives a untagged packet, the packet will be sent to the port default VLAN according to the PVID (port VLAN ID) of the ingress port.
-20- 5.2.4 Aggregation/ T runking Configuration T o set up the Port trunk groups, put the ports number into the same Aggregation group line. There are eight groups to choose. The maximum number of ports for one group is 8. There three aggregation modes for selection, SMAC (Source MAC), DMAC (Destination MAC), and XOR.
-21- 5.2.5.1 Quality of Service (QoS) TOS Configuration T o improve the network performance by applying the TOS for IP packets, set up the priority of eight groups of precedence bits on this page. There are two priority levels to choose, high or Low .
-22- 5.2.5.2 QoS Port Egress Rate Control T o limit the out-going packet rate, select [Enable] and enter the value you need from 250~1000000K bps. The packet rate over the limitation will be discarded.
-23- 5.2.6 Mirror Port mirror function is used to mirror traffic from source port to a target port for analysis. Only 2 ports can be monitored (mirrored) simultaneously to 1 Monitor port (target port). (Note that the target port must be in the same VLAN as the source ports.
-24- 5.2.8 Discovery When you install several switches in the network, the discovery management tool helps you to search and access those switches easily . Therefore you can access any switch without memorizing the re- spective IP addresses. Note: The Maximum number of Address list is 16 for each mode.
-25- 5.2.9 Default T o restore all settings to factory default values, 1. Click [Default] button on the Home page 2. Click [Y es] to confirm the action. 5.2.10 Reboot T o reboot the switch, 1. Click [Reboot] button on the Home page 2. Click [Y es] to confirm the action.

-27- 7. Command Line Interface 7.1 Start-up and T erminal configuration T o start-up the command line interface, connect a PC COM port to the RS-232 connector and activate a terminal emulation software (e.g. HyperT erminal of Windows.). The terminal emulation software should be set up as follows: 1.
-28- When you are at the top level, the prompt shows :>, and if you are at the group level, the prompt displays the group name, e.g. System>. T o be under a certain group, you may enter the group name at top level or add / in front of the group name then press enter at any level.
