3. Advanced Functions To help a better understanding about the software management interfaces, this chapter describes some advanced functions provided by the switch. 3.1 Abbreviation Ingress Port : Ingress port is the input port on which a packet is received. Egress Port : Egress port is the output port from which a packet is sent out. IEEE 802.1Q Packets : A packet which is embedded with a VLAN Tag field VLAN Tag : In IEEE 802.
3.2 QoS Function The switch provides a powerful Quality of Service (QoS) function to guide the packet forwarding in four priority classes. The versatile classification methods can meet most of the application needs.
3.2.1 Packet Priority Classification Each received packet is examined and classified into one of four priority classes, Class 3, Class 2, Class 1 and Class 0 upon reception. The switch provides the following classification methods: 802.1p classification : use User Priority tag value in the received IEEE 802.1Q packet to map to one priority class DSCP classification : use DSCP value in the received IP packet to map to one priority class Port-based classification : used when 802.
3.3 VLAN Function The switch supports port-based VLAN, 802.1Q Tag VLAN and eight VLAN groups. 3.3.1 VLAN Operation The following figure illustrates the basic VLAN operation flow beginning from a packet received on an ingress port until it is transmitted from an egress port. The following sections describe the VLAN processes and Advanced VLAN mode settings provided by the switch. A global setting means the setting is applied to all ports of the switch.
3.3.2.3 Drop Untag Per Port Setting Enable - All untagged packets and priority-tagged packets are dropped. A priority-tagged packet is treated as an untagged packet in this switch. Only VLAN-tagged packets are admitted. Disable - Disable Untagged packet filtering 3.3.2.4 Drop Tag Per Port Setting Enable - All VLAN-tagged packets are dropped. A priority-tagged packet is treated as an untagged packet in this switch. Only untagged packets are admitted. Disable - Disable VLAN-tagged packet filtering 3.
3.3.5 VLAN Group Table Configuration The switch provides a table of eight VLAN groups to support up to eight VLANs at the same time. Each VLAN group is associated to one unique VLAN. The table is referred for VLAN classification.
3.3.8 Egress Tagging Rules Egress Tagging rules are used to make change to the packet before it is stored into egress queue of an egress port. Three egress settings are provided for each port and are described as follows: 3.3.8.1 Egress Settings Insert Tag (per port setting) Enable Insert the Tag data of the associated Packet Tag information into the packet Disable - No tagging is performed.
An 802.1X authenticator: This is the port on the switch that has services to offer to an end device, provided the device supplies the proper credentials. An 802.1X supplicant: This is the end device; for example, a PC that connects to a switch that is requesting to use the services (port) of the device. The 802.1X supplicant must be able to respond to communicate. An 802.
4. Web Management The switch features an http server which can serve the management requests coming from any web browser software over TCP/IP network. Web Browser Compatible web browser software with JAVA script support Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 or later Netscape Communicator 4.x or later Set IP Address for the System Unit Before the switch can be managed from a web browser software, make sure a unique IP address is configured for the switch. 4.

4.4.1 Management VLAN Management VLAN settings allow administrator to access the switch and perform the switch management over a dedicated VLAN. The following rules are applied with the Management VLAN: 1. If the VLAN function is disabled, Management VLAN settings are ignored and no VLAN limitation is applied in accessing the switch web management interface. The switch web (http) server only accepts untagged management packets and replies untagged packets to the management host. 2.
