Preface Notes, Cautions, and Warnings NOTE A NOTE indicates important information that helps make better use of the device. CAUTION A CAUTION indicates either potential damage to hardware or loss of data and tells how to avoid the problem. WARNING! A WARNING indicates a potential for property damage, personal injury, or death. Safety Instructions Use the following safety guidelines to ensure your own personal safety and to help protect your system from potential damage.
Safety Instructions ● Do not push any objects into the openings of your system. Doing so can cause fire or electric shock by shorting out interior components. ● Use the product only with approved equipment. ● Allow the product to cool before removing covers or touching internal components. ● Operate the product only from the type of external power source indicated on the electrical ratings label.
Preface General Precautions for Rack-Mountable Products Observe the following precautions for rack stability and safety. Also, refer to the rack installation documentation accompanying the system and the rack for specific caution statements and procedures. ● Systems are considered to be components in a rack. Thus, “component” refers to any system as well as to various peripherals or supporting hardware.
Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Protecting Against Electrostatic Discharge Static electricity can harm delicate components inside your system. To prevent static damage, discharge static electricity from your body before you touch any of the electronic components, such as the microprocessor. You can do so by periodically touching an unpainted metal surface on the chassis.

1 Introduction CHAPTER Ports The EAS 100-24t includes the following types of ports: ● Twenty 10/100/1000 BASE-TX ports ● Four 10/100/1000BASE-T/SFP combo ports ● One female DCE RS-232 DB-9 console port The following table lists the features and compatibility for each type of port present in the EAS 100-24t.
Chapter 1: Introduction NOTE The SFP combo ports on the switch cannot be used simultaneously with the corresponding 1000BASE-T ports. If both ports are in use at the same time (ex. port 21 of the SFP and port 21 of the 1000BASE-T), the SFP ports will take priority over the combo ports and render the 1000BASE-T ports inoperable. LED Indicators The switch supports LED indicators for Power, Console, and Link/Act/Speed.
Front-Panel Description EAS 100-24t (LED Per 10/100/1000 Mbps SFP Port): LED Indicator Color Status Description Link/Act/Speed Green/ Orange Solid Green When there is a secure 1000Mbps Ethernet connection (or link) at any of the ports. Blinking Green When there is reception or transmission (i.e. Activity— Act) of data occurring at a Fast Ethernet connected port. Solid Orange When there is a secure 100Mbps Ethernet connection (or link) at any of the ports.
Chapter 1: Introduction Side Panel Description The left- and right-hand panels of the switch have heat vents to dissipate heat. Do not block these openings, and leave at least 6 inches of space at the rear and sides of the switch for proper ventilation. Be reminded that without proper heat dissipation and air circulation, system components might overheat, which could lead to system failure.
Gigabit Combo Ports Figure 6: Installing the Mini-GBIC Module The switch is equipped with SFP (Small Form Factor Portable) ports, which are to be used with fiberoptical transceiver cabling in order to uplink various other networking devices for a gigabit link that may span great distances.

2 Installation CHAPTER Package Contents Open the shipping carton of the switch and carefully unpack its contents. The carton should contain the following items: ● One stand-alone switch ● Rack mounting kit (two brackets and screws) ● Four rubber feet with adhesive backing ● DCE RS-232 console cable If any item is missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for a replacement. Before You Connect to the Network The site where you install the switch may greatly affect its performance.
Chapter 2: Installation Installing the Switch without the Rack When installing the switch on a desktop or shelf, the rubber feet included with the switch should first be attached. Attach these cushioning feet on the bottom at each corner of the device. Allow enough ventilation space between the switch and any other objects in the vicinity. Figure 7: Prepare Switch for installation on a desktop or shelf Installing the Switch in a Rack The switch can be mounted in a standard 19" rack.
Mounting the Switch in a Standard 19" Rack Mounting the Switch in a Standard 19" Rack WARNING! Installing systems in a rack without the front and side stabilizers installed could cause the rack to tip over, potentially resulting in bodily injury under certain circumstances. Therefore, always install the stabilizers before installing components in the rack. After installing components in a rack, do not pull more than one component out of the rack on its slide assemblies at one time.

3 Connecting the Switch CHAPTER Switch to End Node End nodes include PCs outfitted with a 10, 100 or 1000 Mbps RJ 45 Ethernet/Fast Ethernet Network Interface Card (NIC) and most routers. An end node can be connected to the switch via a twisted-pair Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP/STP cable. The end node should be connected to any of the ports of the switch. Figure 10: EAS 100-24t connected to an end node The Link/Act LEDs for each UTP port will light green or orange when the link is valid.
Chapter 3: Connecting the Switch Switch to Hub or Switch These connections can be accomplished in a number of ways using a normal cable. ● A 10BASE-T hub or switch can be connected to the switch via a twisted-pair Category 3, 4 or 5 UTP/ STP cable. ● A 100BASE-TX hub or switch can be connected to the switch via a twisted-pair Category 5 UTP/STP cable. ● A 1000BASE-T switch can be connected to the switch via a twisted pair Category 5e UTP/STP cable.
4 Introduction to Switch Management CHAPTER Management Options This system may be managed out-of-band through the console port on the front panel or in-band using Telnet. The user may also choose the Web-based management, accessible through a web browser. Web-based Management Interface After you have successfully installed the switch, you can configure the switch, monitor the LED panel, and display statistics graphically using a Web browser, such as Firefox, Microsoft® Internet Explorer (version 6.
Chapter 4: Introduction to Switch Management To connect a terminal to the console port: 1 Connect the female connector of the RS-232 cable directly to the console port on the switch, and tighten the captive retaining screws. 2 Connect the other end of the cable to a terminal or to the serial connector of a computer running terminal emulation software. Set the terminal emulation software as follows: 3 Select the appropriate serial port (COM port 1 or COM port 2). 4 Set the data rate to 9600 baud.

All rights reserved. UserName: 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.
Chapter 4: Introduction to Switch Management After your initial login, define new passwords for both default user names to prevent unauthorized access to the switch, and record the passwords for future reference. To create an administrator-level account for the switch, follow these steps: ● At the CLI login prompt, enter create account admin followed by the and press the Enter key. ● The switch will then prompt the user for a password.
IP Address Assignment a standard presentation of the information controlled by the on-board SNMP agent. SNMP defines both the format of the MIB specifications and the protocol used to access this information over the network. The switch supports SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. You can specify which version of SNMP you want to use to monitor and control the switch. The three versions of SNMP vary in the level of security provided between the management station and the network device. In SNMP v.1 and v.
