5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Configuration > 802.1Q VLAN A VLAN is a group of ports that can be anywhere in the network, but communicate as though they were in the same area.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 54 – Configuration > 802.1Q VLAN > Example VIDs Figure 55 – Configuration > 802.1Q VLAN > VID Assignments Configuration > Asymmetric VLAN This function is located in the 802.1Q Configuration page. It allows devices in different VLANs to communicate with the servers, firewalls or other shared resources in the shared VLAN.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 57 – Configuration > 802.1Q VLAN > Asymmetric VLAN - Enabling Asymmetric VLAN 2. Configure the shared VLAN (VLAN 1) and access VLANs (VLAN 2, 3, 4) In this case, the default VLAN is used as shared VLAN, and the ports that are shared in the network are: Ports 15-18 are connected to the server Port 20 is connected to the firewall The group of shared ports needs to be included for all the VLANs.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual After configuration, the user will be able to share the network resources set on the shared group of ports (nominated as PVID 1), with both smaller subsets of VLANs (nominated PVID 2, 3 and 4). However, VLAN 2, 3 and 4 groups are incapable of sharing information with each other directly. Click Example to see the example to configure asymmetric VLAN in larger networks.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Aging Time: Enter a period of time (in hours) to remove a port from the voice VLAN if the port is an automatic VLAN member. When the last voice device stops sending traffic and the MAC address of this voice device is aged out, the voice VLAN aging timer will start. The port will be removed from the voice VLAN after the expiration of the voice VLAN aging timer. Selectable range is from 1 to 120 hours, and default is 1 hour.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Select the OUI and press Add to the lower table to complete the Auto Voice VLAN setting. Configuration > Link Aggregation > Port Trunking The Trunking function enables the combining of two or more ports together to increase bandwidth. Up to eight Trunk groups may be created, and each group consists up to eight ports. Select the ports to be grouped together, and then click Apply to activate the selected Trunking groups.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Port Priority (0-65535): Displays the LACP priority value for the port. Default is 128. Activity: There are two different roles of LACP ports: Active - Active LACP ports are capable of processing and sending LACP control frames. This allows LACP compliant devices to negotiate the aggregated link so the group may be changed dynamically as needs require.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Last Member Query Interval (1-25 sec): The Last Member Query Interval is the Max Response Time inserted into Group-Specific Queries sent in response to Leave Group messages, and is also the amount of time between Group-Specific Query messages. This value may be adjusted to modify the "leave latency" of the network. A reduced value results in reduced time to detect the loss of the last member of a group. Default is 1 second.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 68 – Configuration > Port Mirroring Selection options for the Source Ports are as follows: TX (transmit) mode: Duplicates the data transmitted from the source port and forwards it to the Target Port. Click “all” to include all ports into port mirroring. RX (receive) mode: Duplicates the data that is received from the source port and forwards it to the Target Port. Click “all” to include all ports into port mirroring.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 70 – Configuration > Loopback Detection Loopback Detection State: Use the drop-down menu to enable or disable loopback detection. The default is Disabled. Interval (1-32767): Set a Loop detection Interval between 1 and 32767 seconds. The default is 1 seconds. Recover Time (0 or 60-1000000): Time allowed (in seconds) for recovery when a Loopback is detected. The Loop Detection Recover Time can be set at 0 seconds, or 60 to 1000000 seconds.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Current Time: Displays the current date and time for the switch. If choosing SNTP for the clock source, then the following parameters will be available: SNTP First Server: Specify the IP address of the primary SNTP server from which the system time is retrieved. SNTP Second Server: Specify the IP address of the secondary SNTP server from which the system time is retrieved.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual RSTP can operate with legacy equipment implementing IEEE 802.1D, however the advantages of using RSTP will be lost. The IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) evolved from the 802.1D STP standard. RSTP was developed in order to overcome some limitations of STP that impede the function of some recent switching innovations. The basic function and much of the terminology is the same as STP.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Configuration > Spanning Tree > STP Port Settings STP can be set up on a port per port basis. In addition to setting Spanning Tree parameters for use on the switch level, the Switch allows for the configuration of the groups of ports, each port-group of which will have its own spanning tree, and will require some of its own configuration settings.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual port status. Selecting the False parameter indicates that the port does not have edge port status. Selecting the Auto parameter indicates that the port have edge port status or not have edge port status automatically. Priority: Specify the priority of each port. Selectable range is from 0 to 240, and the default setting is 128. The lower the number, the greater the probability the port will be chosen as a root port.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 76 – QoS > Bandwidth Control From Port / To Port: A consecutive group of ports may be configured starting with the selected port. Type: This drop-down menu allows you to select between RX (receive), TX (transmit), and Both. This setting will determine whether the bandwidth ceiling is applied to receiving, transmitting, or both receiving and transmitting packets.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Figure 78 – QoS > DSCP Priority Settings Select QoS Mode: D-Link Smart Switch allows the user to prioritize the traffic based on the 802.1p priority in the VLAN tag or the DSCP (Differentiated Services Code Point) priority in the IP header. Only one mechanism is selected to prioritize the packets at a time. Queuing Mechanism: Select Strict Priority to process the packets with the highest priority first.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual To define a management station IP setting, click the Add Host button and type in the IP address and Subnet mask. Click the Apply button to save your settings. You may permit only single or a range of IP addresses by different IP mask settings, the format can either be 192.168.1.1/255.255.255.0 or 192.168.0.1/24. Please see the example below for permitting the IP range IP Address Subnet Mask Permitted IP 192.168.0.1 255.255.255.0 192.168.0.1~192.168.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual IEEE-802.1X provides a security standard for network access control, especially in Wi-Fi wireless networks. 802.1X holds a network port disconnected until authentication is completed. The switch uses Extensible Authentication Protocol over LANs (EAPOL) to exchange authentication protocol client identity (such as a user name) with the client, and forward it to another remote RADIUS authentication server to verify access rights.
5 Configuration D-Link Web Smart Switch User Manual Select Force Authorized to disable 802.1X and cause the port to transition to the authorized state without any authentication exchange required. This means the port transmits and receives normal traffic without 802.1X-based authentication of the client. If Force Unauthorized is selected, the port will remain in the unauthorized state ignoring all attempts by the client to authenticate.
