0 A BOUT T HIS G UIDE This manual explains how to set up and use the D-Link DES-2218 18-port Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switch. The contents include: ♦ Chapter 1 Introduction Introduces the features of the DES-2218. ♦ Chapter 2 External Features Introduces the external features (including the front panel, LED indicators, and rear panel) of the DES-2218 Ethernet switch. ♦ Chapter 3 Installation Tells how to unpack and install the switch.
1 1 I NTRODUCTION This chapter introduces the D-Link DES-2218 switch, and the technologies that it uses to give you improved network performance and reliability. DES-2218 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Switch The DES-2218 is an Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switch for networks needing improved performance, the ability to interconnect between 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet networks, and SNMP network management capability.
All of the ports can operate in either half-duplex or full-duplex mode. Fullduplex operation, allowing the port to transmit and receive at the same time, can double overall network bandwidth in many applications. Switching The DES-2218 uses store-and-forward technology to bridge packets between ports. Forwarding and filtering occurs at full “wire speed,” 148,800 packets per second (pps) for Fast Ethernet, and 14,880 pps for Ethernet.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide The management agent’s software is stored in Flash ROM, allowing easy upgrade over the network. 100Mbps Fast Ethernet Introduction Computers today have become increasingly powerful, with the capability to accommodate very sophisticated uses such as multimedia applications, video-conferencing, and CAD/CAM. To utilize these technologically advanced applications more efficiently, there is also a growing demand for faster networks that can handle heavy network traffic.
Cables and Connectors Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cables are supported. Cat 5 UTP cable uses the same RJ-45 connector used with 10BASE-T, wired in exactly the same configuration. However, the punch-down blocks in the wiring closet must be Category 5 certified. Where these blocks do not meet the standard, an upgrade is necessary. Topology A Fast Ethernet workgroup is configured in a star topology and is built around a maximum of two repeaters.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Network Network diameter, which is the distance between two end-stations in the same collision domain, is the primary difference between traditional Ethernet and Fast Ethernet. Due to the increased speed in Fast Ethernet and adherence to the EIA/TIA 568 wiring rules, the network diameter of a Fast Ethernet collision domain is limited to 205 meters; in contrast, the maximum 10BASE-T Ethernet collision domain diameter can be up to 2500 meters.
♦ The maximum length of a twisted-pair segment (that is, distance between a port in the hub to a single-address network device such as a PC, server, or LAN switch) is 100 meters. ♦ The maximum diameter in a collision domain is about 205 meters using two Class II hubs and 200 meters using one Class I hub. ♦ Between any two end-stations in a collision domain, there may be up to three segments and two Class II hubs or two segments and one Class I hub.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide network diameter limit for 100BASE-TX networks. Switches supporting both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast Ethernet are also ideal for bridging between existing 10Mbps networks and new 100Mbps networks. Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation of network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies.
2 2 E XTERNAL F EATURES This chapter explains the features visible on the front and rear panels of the DES-2218 Ethernet switch. Front Panel A front view of the DES-2218 Ethernet switch is shown below.
♦ LED Indicator Panel Gives status information about the switch itself, as well as each of the switch ports. The LED indicator panel is described in detail in the next section. ♦ Console Port The diagnostic console port is a standard RS-232 DB-9 connector, which can be used to connect a terminal or terminal emulator to the switch, in order to configure or manage the switch. The port can also be used for out-of-band network management.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide LED Indicators ♦ Power Lights when the DES-2218 Ethernet switch is powered on. ♦ Console Lights when the DES-2218 console interface is in use. ♦ MII Lights when the switch’s MII port is being used to connect to a transceiver. If there is an active connection on the MII port, then the Link/Act LED for port 2x will also light. ♦ 100M (Ports 1 and 2 ) Lights when the port is operating at 100Mbps.
Rear Panel ♦ Cooling Fans Used to control the temperature within the switch’s enclosure. When installing the switch, be sure not to block the fan openings or otherwise restrict airflow. ♦ MII Port Used for connecting Fast Ethernet transceivers, which can be used for attaching other Fast Ethernet media such as 100BASE-FX (fiber optic) or 100BASE-T4 (4-wire twisted pair). The MII port is shared with Port 2. If you are using the MII port, then the 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX port labeled 2x cannot be used.
3 3 I NSTALLATION This chapter explains how to unpack and install your DES-2218 Ethernet switch. Unpacking the Switch Open the shipping carton of your switch and carefully unpack the contents. The carton should contain the following items: ♦ One DES-2218 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switch ♦ One AC power cord ♦ Four rubber feet to be used for shock cushioning ♦ Eight screws and two mounting brackets ♦ This User's Guide Inspect the switch and all accompanying items.
Installing the Switch Location The site where you install the switch may greatly affect its performance. When installing, consider the following factors: ♦ Install the switch in a cool and dry place. See Appendix A, Specifications, for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating ranges. ♦ Install the switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to sunlight.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Connecting Power The switch features a power supply unit that automatically adjusts to the level of the input voltage. Supported voltage levels range from 100V to 240V at 50 or 60 Hz. Your local voltage level should fall within this range. To turn on the DES-2218, plug in the provided AC power cord into the power connector at the rear of the system, then flip the rocker power switch to the “1” position.
Replacing the Fuse A 2.0A fuse protects the switch’s power supply unit from power surges. In case of a power surge, the fuse will burn out, thus cutting off the connection and preventing high voltages from reaching the power supply or the other sensitive parts of the device. The fuse, and a spare one, are contained in a fuse case located just beneath the AC power connector. When replacement becomes necessary, pry open this case with a small screwdriver and replace the damaged fuse.
4 4 MAKING N ETWORK C ONNECTIONS This chapter explains how to connect your switch to network stations, to other switches or to Ethernet hubs in your network. 10BASE-T Connection Ports 3 through 18 are 10BASE-T 10Mbps Ethernet ports that you can use to connect the switch to network devices using 10BASE-T shielded or unshielded twisted-pair cable (STP or UTP).
One wire pair should be connected to pins 1 and 2 of the connector, and another wire pair should be connected to pins 3 and 6. Detailed pinout information for 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX connectors can be found in Appendix B. Plug the RJ-45 connector at one end into the network station, and at the other end into a free 10BASE-T port (ports 3 through 18) at the front of the switch.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Ports 1 through 4 are NWay 10/100Mbps ports. When you connect a station to one of these ports, the corresponding port Link/Act LED should light. For 100Mbps connections, the corresponding 100M LED indicator should also light. When connecting to a hub or an Ethernet switch with an MDI-X port, you can use a crossover cable, or you can directly use the Uplink port.
NOTE: 20 Port 2 and the MII port form one logical port. Only one of these ports can be used at any given time.
5 5 U SING THE C ONSOLE I NTERFACE Your DES-2218 Ethernet switch supports a console management interface that allows you to set up and control your switch, either with an ordinary terminal (or terminal emulator), or over the network using the TCP/IP Telnet protocol. You can use this facility to perform many basic network management functions. In addition, the console program will allow you to set up the switch for management using D-View or another SNMP-based network management system.
♦ 8 data bits ♦ No parity ♦ One stop bit You can also access the same functions over the Telnet interface. Once you have set an IP address for your switch, you can use a Telnet program (in a VT-100 compatible terminal mode) to access and control the switch. All of the screens are for the most part identical, whether accessed from the console port or from the Telnet interface. Console Usage Conventions The console interface makes use of the following conventions: 1.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide First Time Connecting To The Switch The Switch supports user-based security that can allow you to prevent unauthorized users from accessing the Switch or changing its settings. This section tells how to log onto the Switch. Note: The passwords used to access the Switch are case sensitive; therefore, “S” is not the same as “s.” When you first connect to the Switch, you will be presented with the first login screen (shown below). Figure 6-1.
Figure 6-2. Main Menu for Super User The first user automatically gets super user privileges (See Table 6-1) and is recommended to create at least one Super User for the Switch. Steps to create a Super User or General User: From the screen above, move the cursor to the User Account Change and press Enter, then the User Account Change Menu appears. 1. Choose Create New User from the User Account Change Menu and the Create New User Menu appears. 2. Enter the new user name, and assign an initial password.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide available to General Users. The main menus shown are the menus for users with Super User and General User privileges: Figure 6-3. Main Menu for Super User Figure 6-4. Main Menu for General User The following table summarizes Super User and General User privileges: Menu Super User General User Privilege System Config. Using the Console Interface Yes Yes, view only.

Adding and Deleting Users Access to the console, whether using the console port or via TELNET, is controlled using a user name and password. Up to three of these user names can be defined.
3. Enter the new user name, and assign an initial password. Determine whether the new user should have Super User or General User privileges. Figure 6-8. Adding a New User 4. Choose SAVE and press Enter to let the user addition take effect. 5. Choose EXIT to leave the Create New User menu. Deleting a User To delete a user, 1. Choose User Account Change from the main menu. 2. Choose Delete Users from the User Account Change menu. 3. Toggle the Delete field of the user you wish to remove to Yes.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Figure 6-9. Deleting a User 4. Choose SAVE and press Enter to let the user addition take effect. 5. Choose EXIT to leave the Delete Users menu. Setting up the Switch This section describes the settings you will need to change to allow you to be able to manage the switch from an SNMP-based Network Management System such as D-Link’s D-View, or to be able to access the switch using the Telnet protocol.
Each of the fields on this menu takes effect the next time the system is restarted. Fields that can be set include: ♦ IP Address: determines the IP address used by the switch for receiving SNMP and Telnet communications. Should be of the form xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, where each xxx is a number (represented in decimal) between 0 and 255. This address should be a unique address on a network assigned to you by the central Internet authorities.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Figure 6-10. TCP/IP Parameters Configuration Menu Out-of-band management and console settings You can use the Out-of-Band/Console Setting menu to choose whether to use the switch’s RS-232C serial port for console management or for out-of-band TCP/IP communication using SLIP, and to set the bit rate used for SLIP communications.
♦ System Restart Serial Port Setting: determines whether the serial port should be used for out-of-band (SLIP) management or for console management, starting from the next time the switch is restarted. Figure 6-11. Out-of-Band/Console Setting Menu Software Updates The switch is capable of obtaining its boot-time configuration information, as well as updated versions of its internal firmware, using TFTP (the Trivial File Transfer Protocol) and BOOTP (the BOOTstrap Protocol).
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide ♦ Boot Protocol Set to either TFTP ONLY or Applies only if the S/W Update Control is enabled. BOOTP&TFTP. ♦ Boot Server IP Address The IP address of the TFTP server where the configuration file is located. This entry is used only if the S/W Update Control is enabled and your boot protocol is tftp only; if you are using bootp-tftp mode, or if Send BOOTP Request on Power Up is enabled, the address will be obtained from the BOOTP server.
SNMP Information and Console Timeout The System Configuration Menu screen shows various pieces of information about your switch, and allows you to set the System Name, System Location, and System Contact. These settings can be retrieved from the switch using SNMP requests, allowing these settings to be used for network management purposes. Each of these fields can contain up to 64 characters: ♦ System Name: corresponds to the SNMP MIB II variable system.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide The System Configuration Menu also contains the Console/Telnet Display Timeout parameter, which determines how long the console may sit idle before the user is “logged out.” SNMP Traps The switch sends out SNMP traps to network management stations whenever certain exceptional events occur, such as when the switch is powered on or when an SNMP request is made using an unknown community name.
SNMP Security (Community Names) SNMP (version 1) implements a rudimentary form of security by requiring that each request include a community name. A community name is an arbitrary string of characters used as a “password” to control access to the switch. If the switch receives a request with a community name it doesn’t recognize, it will trigger an authentication trap.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Controlling Individual Ports The Port Configuration Menu, accessible from the Network Monitoring menu, allows you to view the status of individual ports and to control their settings. The available settings are: ♦ Port Determines which port is displayed. ♦ Port State This toggle determines whether the port should be enabled or disabled (manually partitioned). Setting the Port State to Disabled will isolate the port from the rest of the network.
You can use the PREPORT and NEXTPORT commands to switch to another port. You can also enter the port’s Port ID number. Forwarding Configuration The switch monitors all of the Ethernet segments to which it is connected. Since Ethernet frames include the MAC (Ethernet) address of the originating station, the switch can automatically learn what segment the frame’s destination is connected to, and forward the frame to only that segment.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide segment to another. You can control the aging time, the amount of time an entry can be idle before the switch removes it from the forwarding table, by: 1. Choose Spanning Tree Algorithm Parameters from the main menu. 2. Choose Protocol Parameters. 3. Enter the desired age time, in seconds. Occasionally you may want to manually add entries to the switch’s forwarding table. To add an entry for a station, 1. Choose Spanning Tree Algorithm Parameters from the main menu. 2.
connected to any port of the switch, and the switch will filter out all packets from the station. 5. Set the Status of the entry to Permanent in order to enter and save the settings in the memory of the switch. 6. Choose SAVE to add the entry to the forwarding table. Spanning Tree Protocol and Configuration The DES-2218 implements the IEEE 803.1d Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to provide the following functions: ♦ Network loop detection and prevention.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide Introduction to Spanning Tree Protocol Parameters The Spanning Tree Protocol works on two levels: the bridge (i.e., switch) and port levels. At the bridge level, the STP algorithm calculates a bridge identifier for each bridge and then determines the root bridge and the designated bridges. On the port level, the spanning tree protocol determines the root port and designated ports.
A bridge priority ranges from 0 to 65535, with 0 being the highest bridge priority. On the port level, these terms are used: ♦ Root Port. Each bridge has a root port except for the root bridge. This is the port that has the lowest path cost to the root bridge. In case there are several such ports, then the one with the lowest port identifier becomes the root port.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide The Spanning Tree Protocol puts all root ports and designated ports in the forwarding state, while placing the others in the blocking state. LAN 1 Switch 1 1 2 LAN 2 Bridge ID = 21 Switch 3 1 2 Bridge ID = 15 Switch 2 1 2 Bridge ID = 30 LAN 3 Setting Spanning Tree Protocol Parameters To set the STP bridge parameters for the switch, 1. Choose Spanning Tree Algorithm Parameters from the main menu. 2.
Figure 6-19. Protocol Parameters Menu 4. Choose SAVE and press Enter to let any changes take effect. The status variables shown are: ♦ Time Since Topology Change The last time that changes were made to the network topology, such as might occur when a backup path is activated due to a primary path failure. ♦ Topology Change Count How many times the network bridge topology has changed since the DES-2218 was turned on.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide ♦ Forward Delay (sec) Indicates how fast any port on the DES-2218 can change its spanning state when moving towards the forwarding state. This value determines how long the port stays in each of the listening and learning states, which precede the forwarding state.
2. Choose Port Parameters from the Spanning Tree Algorithm Parameters menu. 3. Select the port number that you wish to set parameters for. 4. The Protocol Parameters menu displays the current status of the port concerning the Spanning Tree Algorithm’s operation, and allows you to modify some of the parameters. Figure 6-20. STAP Port Parameters ♦ State Indicates the current state of the port. A port can have the following states: Disabled, Blocking, Listening, Learning, Forwarding, and Broken.
DES-2218 Ethernet Switch User’s Guide ♦ Designated Bridge Displays the MAC address of the switch/bridge that is the designated bridge for the segment to which the port is attached. ♦ Designated Port This is the port on each designated bridge that is attached to the LAN segment for which the bridge is the designated bridge ♦ Port Path Cost (1–65535) Allows you to specify a path cost for the port. By convention, 10Mbps ports are given a path cost of 100, and 100Mbps ports are given a path cost of 10.
♦ Fragments Counts packets less than 64 bytes with either bad framing or an invalid CRC. These are normally the result of collisions. ♦ Jabber Frames Counts frames with length more than 1518 bytes and with CRC error or misaligned (bad framing). ♦ Collision Counts collisions on the Ethernet segment. ♦ Late Collisions The number of collisions that occurred at or after the th 64 byte (octet) in the frame. ♦ Bytes Tx Counts the number of bytes successfully sent from the port.
