Attach mounting brackets Gigabit Combo Ports In addition to the 24 10/100/1000 Mbps ports, the Switch features four Mini-GBIC Combo ports. These four ports are 10/100/1000BASE-T copper ports (built-in) and Mini-GBIC ports (optional). Please note that the Mini-GBIC ports are used instead of the built-in 10/100/1000BASE-T ports.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Connecting the Console Port The switch provides an RS-232 serial port that enables a connection to a computer or terminal for monitoring and configuring the switch. This port is a DB-9 connector, implemented as a DCE connection.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Password Protection The DES-6500 does not have a default user name and password. One of the first tasks when settings up the switch is to create user accounts. If you log in using a predefined administrator-level user name you have privileged access to the switch’s management software.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch SNMP Settings Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an OSI Layer 7 (Application Layer) function designed specifically for managing and monitoring network devices. SNMP enables network management stations to read and modify the settings of gateways, routers, switches, and other network devices. Use SNMP to configure system features for proper operation, monitor performance and detect potential problems in the switch, switch group or network.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch MIBs Management and counter information are stored by the switch in the Management Information Base (MIB). The Switch uses the standard MIB-II Management Information Base module. Consequently, values for MIB objects can be retrieved from any SNMP-based network management software. In addition to the standard MIB-II, the Switch also supports its own proprietary enterprise MIB as an extended Management Information Base.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The IP interface named System on the switch can be assigned an IP address and subnet mask which can then be used to connect a management station to the switch’s Telnet or Web-based management agent.

D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 4- 1. Port Configuration menu To configure switch ports: 1. Choose the Unit from the pull-down menu. The Unit pull-down menu refers to the module installed in the DES-6500 chassis that you want to configure ports for. The modules are numbered from 1 at the top (just below the DES-6502 CPU module) to 8 at the bottom (the slot farthest from the CPU module) 2. Choose the port or sequential range of ports using the From…To… port pull-down menus.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch addresses must be manually entered into the forwarding table. This is sometimes done for reasons of security or efficiency. See the section on Forwarding/Filtering for information on entering MAC addresses into the forwarding table. Configuring Port Mirroring The Switch allows you to copy frames transmitted and received on a port and redirect the copies to another port.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch NOTE: You cannot mirror a fast port onto a slower port. For example, if you try to mirror the traffic from a 100 Mbps port onto a 10 Mbps port, this can cause throughput problems. The port you are copying frames from should always support an equal or lower speed than the port to which you are sending the copies. Also, the target port for the mirroring cannot be a member of a trunk group.

VLAN Name This is the name of the VLAN where the multicast router is attached.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch increasingly handled by Ethernet switches. The basic function and much of the terminology is the same as STP. Most of the settings configured for STP are also used for RSTP. This section introduces some new Spanning Tree concepts and illustrates the main differences between the two protocols.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch P2P Port A P2P port is also capable of rapid transition. P2P ports may be used to connect to other bridges. Under RSTP, all ports operating in full-duplex mode are considered to be P2P ports, unless manually overridden through configuration. 802.1d/802.1w Compatibility RSTP can interoperate with legacy equipment and is capable of automatically adjusting BPDU packets to 802.1d format when necessary. However, any segment using 802.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Configure the following parameters and click the Apply button to implement them: Parameter Description Spanning Tree Protocol This field can be toggled between Enabled and Disabled using the pulldown menu.

D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch STP Port Settings For stacked switch installations, first select the Unit to be configured. Figure 4- 11. STP Port Settings In addition to setting Spanning Tree parameters for use on the switch level, the switch allows for the configuration of groups of ports, each port-group of which will have its own spanning tree, and will require some of its own configuration settings.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch State < Disabled > This drop-down menu allows you to Enable or Disable STP for the selected group of ports. Cost < 0 > A Port Cost can be set from 1 to 200000000. The lower the number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen to forward packets.

D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Configuring VLANs Understanding IEEE 802.1p Priority Priority tagging is a function defined by the IEEE 802.1p standard designed to provide a means of managing traffic on a network where many different types of data may be transmitted simultaneously. It is intended to alleviate problems associated with the delivery of time critical data over congested networks.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch VLANs can enhance performance by conserving bandwidth, and improve security by limiting traffic to specific domains. A VLAN is a collection of end nodes grouped by logic instead of physical location. End nodes that frequently communicate with each other are assigned to the same VLAN, regardless of where they are physically on the network.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch switches through a single physical connection and allows Spanning Tree to be enabled on all ports and work normally. The IEEE 802.1Q standard restricts the forwarding of untagged packets to the VLAN the receiving port is a member of. The main characteristics of IEEE 802.1Q are as follows: • • • Assigns packets to VLANs by filtering. Assumes the presence of a single global spanning tree. Uses an explicit tagging scheme with one-level tagging. 802.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch 802.1Q VLAN Tags The figure below shows the 802.1Q VLAN tag. There are four additional octets inserted after the source MAC address. Their presence is indicated by a value of 0x8100 in the EtherType field. When a packet’s EtherType field is equal to 0x8100, the packet carries the IEEE 802.1Q/802.1p tag.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 4- 17. Adding an IEEE 802.1Q Tag Port VLAN ID Packets that are tagged (are carrying the 802.1Q VID information) can be transmitted from one 802.1Q compliant network device to another with the VLAN information intact. This allows 802.1Q VLANs to span network devices (and indeed, the entire network, if all network devices are 802.1Q compliant). Unfortunately, not all network devices are 802.1Q compliant.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch A switch port can have only one PVID, but can have as many VIDs as the switch has memory in its VLAN table to store them. Because some devices on a network may be tag-unaware, a decision must be made at each port on a tag-aware device before packets are transmitted – should the packet to be transmitted have a tag or not? If the transmitting port is connected to a tag-unaware device, the packet should be untagged.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch reception. This eliminates the subsequent processing of packets that will just be dropped by the destination port. Default VLANs The Switch initially configures one VLAN, VID = 1, called “default.” The factory default setting assigns all ports on the Switch to the “default.” As new VLANs are configured in Portbased mode, their respective member ports are removed from the “default.” Packets cannot cross VLANs.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch VLAN and Trunk Groups The members of a trunk group have the same VLAN setting. Any VLAN setting on the members of a trunk group will apply to the other member ports. Note: In order to use VLAN segmentation in conjunction with port trunk groups, you can first set the port trunk group(s), and then you may configure VLAN settings.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 4- 19. 802.1Q Static VLANs Entry Settings – Add To change an existing 802.1Q VLAN entry, double-click on the selected entry in the 802.1Q Static VLANs menu. A new menu appears, use this to configure the port settings and to assign a unique name and number to the new VLAN. See the table below for a description of the parameters in the new menu. Figure 4- 20. 802.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The following fields can then be set in either the Add or Modify 802.1Q Static VLANs menus: Parameter Description Unit Displays the Unit ID of the switch − within the switch stack − that the VLAN will be created on. VID (VLAN ID) Allows the entry of a VLAN ID in the Add dialog box, or displays the VLAN ID of an existing VLAN in the Edit dialog box. VLANs can be identified by either the VID or the VLAN name.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch GVRP Settings In the Configuration menu, open the VLANs folder and click GVRP Setting. The Port VLAN ID (PVID) dialog box, shown below, allows you to determine whether the switch will share its VLAN configuration information with other GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) enabled switches. In addition, Ingress Checking can be used to limit traffic by filtering incoming packets whose PVID does not match the PVID of the port.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Ingress Checking is disabled by default. This read only field in the GVRP Table shows the current PVID assignment for each port. The switch’s default is to assign all ports to the Default VLAN with a VID of 1. PVID The PVID is used by the port to tag outgoing, untagged packets, and to make filtering decisions about incoming packets.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch down a loop when a storm is formed because a MAC address cannot be located in the Switch’s forwarding database and it must send a packet to all ports or all ports on a VLAN. To configure Traffic Control, select the Unit (Unit ID of a switch in a switch) you want to configure. Broadcast Storm, Multicast Storm and Destination Unknown may be Enabled or Disabled.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The following parameters can be set: Parameter Description Unit Allows you to specify a switch in a switch stack using that switch’s Unit ID. From/To A consecutive group of ports may be configured starting with the selected port. Admin State This pull-down menu allows you to Enable or Disable Port Security (locked MAC address table for the selected ports.) Max.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch For weighted round-robin queuing, if the weight for a CoS is set to 0, then it will continue processing the packets from this CoS until there are no more packets for this CoS. The other CoS queues that have been given a nonzero value, and depending upon the weight, will follow a common weighted round-robin scheme. Remember that the DES-6500 has 8 priority queues (and seven Classes of Service) for each port on the switch.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch transmitting packets. no_limit This drop-down menu allows you to specify that the selected port will have no bandwidth limit. Enabled disables the limit. Rate This field allows you to enter the data rate, in kb/s, that will be the limit for the selected port.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch QoS Output Scheduling QoS can be customized by changing the output scheduling used for the hardware queues in the Switch. As with any changes to QoS implementation, careful consideration should be given to how network traffic in lower priority queues is affected. Changes in scheduling may result in unacceptable levels of packet loss or significant transmission delay.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch 802.1p Default Priority The switch allows the assignment of a default 802.1p priority to each port on the switch. In the Configuration folder open the QoS folder and click 802.1p Default Priority, to view the screen shown below. Figure 4- 27. 802.1p Default Priority window This page allows you to assign a default 802.1p priority to any given port on the switch.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Figure 4- 28. User Priority Configuration window Once you have assigned a priority to the port groups on the switch, you can then assign this Class to each of the 8 levels of 802.1p priorities. Configuring Traffic Segmentation Traffic segmentation is used to limit traffic flow from a single port to a group of ports on either a single switch (in standalone mode) or a group of ports on another switch in a switch stack.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Click on the Setup button to open the Setup Forwarding ports page, as shown below. Figure 4- 30. Setup Forwarding Ports window This page allows you to determine which port on a given switch in a switch stack will be allowed to forward packets to other ports on that switch. Configuring traffic segmentation on the DES-6500 is accomplished in two parts. First you specify a switch from a switch stack, and then a port from that switch.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The System Log Server The Switch can send Syslog messages to up to four designated servers using the System Log Server.

D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Routing Information Protocol (RIP) The Routing Information Protocol is a distance-vector routing protocol. There are two types of network devices running RIP – active and passive. Active devices advertise their routes to others through RIP messages, while passive devices listen to these messages. Both active and passive routers update their routing tables based upon RIP messages that active routers exchange.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch RIP Version 1 Message Format There are two types of RIP messages: routing information messages and information requests. The same format is used by both types.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Family of Source Network field (IP has a value of 2). This will determine how the address field is interpreted. RIP specifies that the IP address 0.0.0.0 denotes a default route. The distances, measured in router hops are entered in the Distance to Source Network, and Distance to Destination Network fields. RIP 1 Route Interpretation RIP was designed to be used with classed address schemes, and does not include an explicit subnet mask.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch RIP version 2 also adds a 16-bit route tag that is retained and sent with router updates. It can be used to identify the origin of the route. Because the version number in RIP2 occupies the same octet as in RIP1, both versions of the protocols can be used on a given router simultaneously without interference.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Refer to the table below for a description of the available parameters for RIP interface settings. The following RIP settings can be applied to each IP interface: Parameter Description Interface Name The name of the IP interface on which RIP is to be setup. This interface must be previously configured on the Switch. TX Mode Toggle among Disabled, V1 Only, V1 Compatible, and V2 Only.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The Backbone and Area 0 OSPF limits the number of link-state updates required between routers by defining areas within which a given router operates. When more than one area is configured, one area is designated as area 0 − also called the backbone. The backbone is at the center of all other areas − all areas of the network have a physical (or virtual) connection to the backbone through a router.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Authentication − OSPF allows for the configuration of a password for a specific area. Two routers on the same segment and belonging to the same area must also have the same OSPF password before they can become neighbors. Hello and Dead Intervals − The Hello interval specifies the length of time, in seconds, between the hello packets that a router sends on an OSPF interface.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch way stage, routers will decide whether to proceed in building an adjacency or not. The decision is based on whether one of the routers is a DR or a BDR or the link is a pointto-point or virtual link. Exstart − (Exchange Start) Routers establish the initial sequence number that is going to be used in the information exchange packets. The sequence number insures that routers always get the most recent information.

This uniquely identifies the advertisement, but not its instance. LinkState Request packets are understood to be requests for the most recent instance.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch The body of the Link-State Update packet consists of a list of link-state advertisements. Each advertisement begins with a common 20-byte header, the link-state advertisement header. Otherwise, the format of each of the five types of link-state advertisements is different. The Link-State Acknowledgment Packet Link-State Acknowledgment packets are OSPF packet type 5.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch routers have the same collection of link-state advertisements. The collection of advertisements is called the link-state (or topological) database. From the link-state database, each router constructs a shortest path tree with itself as root. This yields a routing table. There are five types of link state advertisements, each using a common link state header. These are: 1. Router Links Advertisements 2. Network Links Advertisements 3. & 4.
D-Link DES-6500 Layer 3 Stackable Gigabit Ethernet Switch Field Description Link State Age The time is seconds since the link state advertisement was originated.
