B. After both mounting brackets are attached, position the switch in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the appropriate holes on the rack. Secure the switch to the rack with a screwdriver and the rack-mounting screws. Figure 3-3. Mount the MIL-S3580 in an EIA Standard 19-inch Rack N OTTEE:: For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance on the NO front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) on the back of the switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installation.
Figure 3-4. Connecting the MIL-S3580 to a Terminal via RS-232 Cable Login in the Console Interface When the physical connection between the switch and the PC is established, turn on the PC and run a terminal emulation program or Hyper Terminal and configure its communication parameters to match the following default characteristics of the console port: Baud Rate: 9600 bps Data Bits: 8 Parity: None Stop Bit: 1 Control flow: None Figure 3-5.
Telnet You can access the console using a Telnet connection once an IP address is assigned. The switch offers password protection for this interface. When the telnet session opens, select Terminal>Properties. In the Terminal Preferences dialog, verify the following settings. Under Terminal Options select VT100 Arrows and set buffer Size to 25. Under Emulation, select the VT-100/ANSI radio button. User Interface The switch offers a menu-driven console interface.
First Screen Figure 3-6. First Screen Display in Console Interface Once you have configured your system terminal and started the switch, you can login to the console interface. The default username is admin. There is no password required. You can change both the user name and password in the User Authentication Menu option, which appears on the Main Menu. Main Menu Figure 3-7.
After login, you will see the Main Menu screen as illustrated in the picture. The Main Menu displays all the submenus and pages that are available in the console interface. 1. System Information Figure 3-8. System Information Menu The system information screen displays information such as hardware, software versions, and system up time. You can also enter specific information about you and your organization. This information about the switch is available through any SNMP manager.
The management setup menu contains 6 submenus and is discussed in the following sections. 2.1. Network Configuration Figure 3-9. Network Configuration Menu This menu allows the setting of your IP address of the switch according to your network's unique configuration. The factory defaults for all three addresses are 0.0.0.0. After changing any of the settings, you need to save the information and reset the switch in order for the changes to take effect.
You can change the serial port setting through this screen to suit you environment, however, it is recommended to keep the default setting. 2.3. SNMP Community Setup Figure 3-11. SNMP Community Menu Use the SNMP communities to restrict access to the switch by SNMP management stations by adding editing or disabling SNMP communities. You can configure up to 6 SNMP communities, each with either a restricted read-only or unrestricted read/write access.
2.4. Trap Receiver Figure 3-12. Trap Receiver Menu A trap receiver is a management station designated by the switch to receive SNMP traps sent from the switch. Use Trap Receiver screen to designate certain community to receive trap(s) generated by the system. In the default configuration, no trap receivers are configured and the authentication trap is disabled. The trap's Host IP address is the IP address required. 2.5. Management Capability Setup Figure 3-13.
This menu allows you to enable/disable Web-Based management capability. If disabled, there is no access to management function through the use of a Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape. 2.6. Trap Filter Setup Figure 3-14. Trap Filter Setup Menu The system will generate a set of SNMP traps upon the occurrence of an event. By checking a filter event, you are turning off the filter and enabling the trap associated with that event.
Device Control Menu contains 15 submenus where you can add and modify functions and features of the switch. 3.1. Switch Device Configuration Figure 3-16. Switch Device Configuration Menu Use to toggle the Enable/Disable field and type in the appropriate value in the Time and Priority fields. x Spanning Tree Enable State is disabled by default on the MIL-S3580. The switch uses the IEEE802.
x Ingress Filtering examines the tagged header of each tagged frame that enters a port and determines whether the tagged frame and the port that received the frame are members of the same VLAN. If they belong to the same VLAN, the port accepts the frame. If they belong to different VLANs, the port discards the frame. If Ingress filtering is disabled, any tagged frame is accepted on any port on the switch. It does not matter whether the frame and port belong to the same or different VLANs.
6. Turn on GVRP in Switch Configuration Menu. 7. Update Configuration Setting. 8. Cold Start in System Start Menu. x IGMP Snooping relates to the protocol IGMP. IGMP enables routers to create lists of devices that are members of multicast groups. A multicast group might consist of all users that want to see the company yearly meeting on video. Video is a multicast application. IGMP Snooping enables the switch to monitor the flow of queries from the devices and the routers.
3.2. Individual Port Configuration Figure 3-18. Switch Port Configuration Menu In Switch Port Configuration Menu, you can configure basic characteristics such as speed, flow control, and VLAN ID as well as the following features supported by the switch: x Port Description - Sixteen characters can be entered to identify the port. x Admin State - When set to Disable, the port is inoperable and no devices can access the switch through the port.
the provisioned speed or none for full wire speed. Configuration takes effect immediately after saving, with no resetting of the switch necessary. The various levels are listed below. 10Mb 312Kb 625KB 938Kb 1.25Mb 2Mb 4Mb 6Mb 8Mb 100Mb 3.12Mb 6.25Mb 9.38Mb 12.5Mb 20Mb 40Mb 60Mb 80Mb 1000Mb 31.2Mb 62.5Mb 93.8Mb 125Mb 200Mb 400Mb 600Mb 800Mb Table 3-1.
3.3.1. Static Unicast Address Configuration You can create, modify, or delete Static Unicast Address by selecting entries from the following screen. Figure 3-20. Static Unicast Address Configuration Menu This screen shows all the Static Unicast addresses configured and their status. There is a separate index for 128 different Static Unicast addresses.
Enter the MAC address you wish to set as the static unicast address and the associated port. Use to toggle the status field between Disable, Forwarding, Filter-In, and Filter-Out. x Disable – This Unicast Address entry has no effect to the switch system. x Forwarding – All packets designated to this MAC address will be forwarded (and only to) the designated port. x Filter-in – Only packets originated from this MAC address will be permitted to enter this port.
3.4. Port Statistics Figure 3-22. Port Statistics Menu You can view the port specific statistical information displayed in this screen by entering the port number in the Port ID field. The statistics are automatically refreshed, but you can force the screen to refresh or reset the counters to 0 by selecting the appropriate option. 3.5. Spanning Tree Protocol Configuration Figure 3-23.
By default, Spanning Tree is disabled on the MIL-S3580. The switch uses the IEEE802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), when enabled, to ensure that only one path at a time is active between any two nodes on the network. In networks where there is more than one physical path between any two nodes, STP ensures a single active path between them by blocking all redundant paths.
3.6. Spanning Tree Protocol Port Configuration Figure 3-24. Spanning Tree Protocol Port Configuration Menu In this menu, you can assign spanning priority and path cost to any port. A port with higher priority and lower path cost is less likely to be blocked if Spanning Tree Protocol is detecting network loop. x STP Port Priority - Range is 0 to 255. This parameter is used by STP to determine the port(s) to use for forwarding. The port with the lowest number has the highest priority. The default is 128.
Figure 3-25. Port Based VLAN Configuration Menu Port Based VLAN needs to be set in the Switch Device Control Menu before any configuration in this menu takes effect. By default, the VLAN mode configuration for the switch is IEEE 802.1Q. Once set to Port Based VLANs, all ports are on the same VLAN by default. There can be up to 128 different port based VLANs configured. These VLANs can be overlapping which means that one port can belong to several different VLANs.
Figure 3-25. Port Based VLAN Configuration Menu 3.8. 802.1Q VLAN Configuration When configuring the IEEE802.1Q VLAN, there are slightly different options available when the port is configured on the console screen or the web browser. A port on a VLAN can be in one of three different states. x Normal where the port is not mapped to a specific VLAN but can become a member through Dynamic VLAN registration. Dynamic VLANs are set when GVRP learns them.
Once configured there are 3 possible states of the ports that show in the management menus. S: shows a static registration of the port and GVRP is not running D: the port has been registered to the specific VLAN by GVRP C: the port has been registered to the specific VLAN by GVRP and it was also set to that VLAN by a network administrator N O E NO OTTTE E: A blank indicates that the port is not a member of the VLAN. On the web browser the ports can be set as Normal, Fixed or Forbidden.
Figure 3-27. Static VLAN Port Configuration Menu ( ) – Port is not set as static (fixed) member of the VLAN but it can become a member through Dynamic VLAN Registration. Dynamic VLANs occur when GVRP sets them. Unless GVRP is running, no registration of dynamic VLANs can take place. (F) – Port is set as static (fixed) member of the VLAN and can be registered as a dynamic VLAN member as well. (B) – Port(s) is being forbidden to participate in the designated VLAN.
3.8.1. Dynamic VLAN Table Figure 3-28. Dynamic VLAN Table This screen displays the VLAN mapping for port(s) that join VLAN(s) through Dynamic VLAN Registration. GVRP enables the switch to dynamically create 802.1Q compliant VLANs on links with other devices running GVRP. This enables the switch to automatically create VLAN links between other GVRP aware devices. GVRP reduces the chances for errors in VLAN configuration by automatically providing VLAN ID consistently across the network. 3.8.2.
All ports are set by default as untagged. To change port(s) to be tagged, use the to uncheck - ( ) the port(s). In the above configuration, port 2 will send out tagged packets. If VLANs need to communicate with other VLANs on the network, VLAN tagging needs to be set for those ports. Also, in order for GVRP to work, VLAN tagging of those ports needs to be set. 3.8.3. MTU/MDU Per-Port VLAN Table Figure 3-30.
3.9. GARP Configuration Figure 3-31. GARP Configuration Menu GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol) defines the architecture, rules of operation, state machines and variables for the registration and de-registration of attribute values. It allows dynamic filter entries for VLAN membership to be distributed among the Forwarding Databases of VLAN-aware switches. By joining GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol), it helps maintaining VLAN information.
3.10. IGMP Snooping Table Figure 3-32. IGMP Snooping Table This table shows the multicast groups found by IGMP Snooping. By supporting IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) Snooping, the switch can forward multicast traffic intelligently. Packets are forwarded to the ports that belong to the multicast group instead of being broadcasted to all ports and possibly disrupting network performance.
Multiple links between switches can be grouped (trunk) to work as one virtual, aggregate link. You can create 4 trunks at a time; each trunk can hold up to 8 ports. Only ports of the same speed can belong to a single trunk. Link aggregation is supported and trunking can be configured to another switch supporting the standards.
By enabling port mirroring, traffic to and from the source port will be forwarded to the target port. You can select any of the 26 ports as either the Source port or the Target port by using to select the desired port number. 4. User Authentication Figure 3-35. User Authentication Menu You can change the password setting in the User Authentication Menu. You can also create alternate users and assign either read or read/write privileges to each user configured.
Figure 3-36. User Authentication Detailed Menu After selecting an entry to add or modify, type in user name and password, toggle the user privilege with and then update the changes. 5. System Utility 5.1 System Restart Figure 3-37. System Restart Menu You need to perform either a Cold Start or Warm Start to have the changes saved in the switch’s memory. These changes stay in effect until another configuration change is made.
configuration changes and completely restart the switch’s hardware including the power, just as if you had powered the switch off and on. A warm boot is a software restart; no hardware is affected. Both types of restarts, save the configuration changes to the switch. 5.2 Factory Reset Figure 3-38. Factory Reset Menu This menu lets you to reset a certain portion of the current configuration back to factory default or all configuration to factory default.
5.3 Login Timeout Interval Figure 3-39. Login Timeout Interval You can set up the time you need for the automatic log-out to take effect. The default is that the local console connection and Telnet session will stay connected and not time-out. 5.4 System Download Figure 3-40.

4. Web-Based Management This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management. About Web-based Management An embedded HTML web server resides in flash memory inside the switch. It allows users to manage the switch from anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape. The Web-Based Management is based on Java Applets with an aim to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed and present an easy viewing screen.
4. Type user name and password. The default is “admin” and no password. 5. Press “Enter” or click ”OK”, then the Home Screen of the Web-based management appears. System Information Figure 4-2 System Information Menu You can manage the switch using third party’s SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) agent. Access rights to the SNMP agent are controlled by community strings. To set System Name, System Location and System Contact, you can type the desired text string in the corresponding edit box.
Management Setup Network Configuration Figure 4-3. Network Configuration Menu The IP address, subnet mask and default gateway of the managed node can be changed or modified on this menu. Enter a new IP address, subnet mask and default gateway in the corresponding edit box. The default IP address, subnet mask and gateway are all 0.0.0.0. The IP address and the subnet mask must be set by the local management port before the switch can be managed from the Web browser. Serial Port Configuration Figure 4-4.
You can change the serial port baud rate setting through this screen to suit your environment, however, using the default setting is recommended. SNMP Community Setup Figure 4-5. SNMP Community Setup Menu Public Community (Read-only access right) means that member of community can view the information but cannot make changes to the configuration. Private Community (Read/Write access right) allow the member of the community to view and make change to the configuration.
Trap Receiver Figure 4-6. Trap Receiver Menu A trap receiver is a management station designated by the switch to receive SNMP traps sent from the switch. Use Trap Receiver screen to designate certain community to receive trap(s) generated by the system. In the default configuration, no trap receivers are configured and the authentication trap is disabled. The trap's Host IP address is the IP address required. Management Capability Setup Figure 4-7.
This is where you can enable/disable Web-Based management capability which in turn allow or disallow the access to management function through the use of a Web browser. If Web Based management is disabled, the only way to manage the switch is connecting locally through the console port or via the network by Telnet. Trap Filter Setup Figure 4-8. Trap Filter Setup Menu The system can generate a set of SNMP traps upon the occurrence of those events.
Device Control Switch Configuration Figure 4-9. Switch Configuration Menu x Spanning Tree Enable State - By default, Spanning Tree is disabled on the MIL-S3580. The switch uses the IEEE802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), when enabled, to ensure that only one path at a time is active between any two nodes on the network. x Dynamic Entry Aging Time - This is the time, in seconds, that the switch keeps an address of a device in the MAC address table. 300 seconds or 5 minutes is the default.
discards the frame. If Ingress Filtering is disabled, any tagged frame is accepted on any port on the switch. It does not matter whether the frame and port belong to the same or different VLANs. x Per-Port Priority allows port based priorities. You can designate the priority for the receiving port so that any frame received will be transmitted to the destination port with the programmed priority.
VLANs are assigned. x IGMP Snooping relates to the protocol IGMP. IGMP enables routers to create lists of devices that are members of multicast groups. A multicast group might consist of all users that want to see the company yearly meeting on video. Video is a multicast application. IGMP snooping enables the switch to monitor the flow of queries from the devices and the routers.
Figure 4-12. Switch Port Configuration Menu x Port Description - Sixteen characters can be entered to identify the port. x Administration State - When set to Disable, the port is inoperable and no devices can access the switch through the port. The administrator must then enable the port in order for a link to be established.
x Bandwidth Management - Eight levels of speed control facilitate the management of bandwidth. Configuration of receive and transmit control of each port is independent. You can set the port to transmit and/or receive at the provisioned speed or none for full wire speed. Configuration takes effect immediately after saving, with no resetting of the switch necessary. The various levels are listed below. 10Mb 312Kb 625KB 938Kb 1.25Mb 2Mb 4Mb 6Mb 8Mb 100Mb 3.12Mb 6.25Mb 9.38Mb 12.

5. Network Configuration This section provides you a few samples of network topology in which the MIL-S3580 is used. The Switch provides versatile configuration options for the network. It is ideally suited as a workgroup or segment Switch in a network; it has the flexibility to provide switched 10Mbps to the desktop or shared hubs, aggregate traffic from workgroup switches, or provide dedicated 100Mbps or 1000Mbps (Gigabit) to servers with bandwidth-intensive applications.
Figure 5-1. Collapsed Backbone Application Departmental Bridge For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly processed, this switch is an ideal solution for department users to connect to the corporate backbone. The MIL-S3580 used as a segment switch can alleviate user contention for bandwidth and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All ports can connect to high-speed department servers that need high bandwidth.
Figure 5-2: Departmental Bridge Application N OTTEE:: Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (for example, NO when attaching the switch to a workstation, server, or another switch). When connecting to hubs, use a standard cascaded connection set for half-duplex operation. High Performance Switched Workgroup This switch is also a good solution for connecting two workgroups, supporting the throughput, for example, of 800Mbps.
The switch can provide the same bandwidth of FDDI and ATM at much lower costs. In addition, all current adapters and network devices can still be used. The switching cross-domain connection is better than bridge and router because users can retain LAN structure in which any node can freely communicate with any other node. Figure 5-3: High Performance Switched Workgroup Application IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application The switch supports up to 4096 Group ID, IEEE 802.1Q-compatible virtual LAN (VLANs).
Hence, group members can coordinate their data communication requirements regardless of the actual working locations; and the logical network can extend to any point you want it to. Moreover, VLAN groups can be modified at any time to add, move or change users without any re-cabling. Figure 5-4: VLAN Workgroup Application Shared Server The MIL-S3580’s compliance to the IEEE802.
In this example, stations on different VLANs share resources. As a result, VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 can access VLAN 3 for printing. The broadcasts from ports configured in VLAN3 can be seen by all VLAN port members of VLAN3.
