Getting Started Hardware Features Chapter 2 These features are common to both the Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 switches. See the figures on pages 44…46 for an illustration of these features. Feature Description Power and relay connector You connect the DC power and alarm signals to the switch through two front panel connectors. One connector provides primary DC power (supply A) and the major alarm signal, and a second connector (supply B) provides secondary power and the minor alarm signal.
Chapter 2 Getting Started CompactFlash Memory Card The CompactFlash card contains the switch IOS operating system, the Device Manager Web interface firmware, and user-defined configuration settings. Without the CompactFlash card installed, the switch cannot power up or restart. If you remove the card with the switch running, the switch continues to function. However, the Device Manager Web interface is no longer available.
Getting Started Chapter 2 Follow these steps to run Express Setup. 1. Make sure that at least one of the switch’s Ethernet ports is available for Express Setup. IMPORTANT Do not use the console port for Express Setup. During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your personal computer has a static IP address, change your personal computer settings before you begin to temporarily use DHCP. 2. Apply power to the switch. When the switch powers on, it begins its power-on sequence.
Chapter 2 Getting Started 8. If the window does not appear, do the following: • Enter the URL of a well-known website in your browser to be sure the browser is working correctly. Your browser redirects you to the Express Setup web page. • Verify that any proxy settings or pop-up blockers are disabled on your browser. • Verify that any wireless interface is disabled on your personal computer. 9. Complete the fields. To view fields for Common Industrial Protocol (CIP), you must click Advanced Settings.
Getting Started Chapter 2 Field Description IP Assignment Mode The IP Assignment mode determines whether the switch IP information is manually assigned (static) or is automatically assigned by a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server. The default is Static. We recommend that you click Static and manually assign the IP address for the switch. You can then use the same IP address whenever you want to access the Device Manager Web interface.
Chapter 2 Getting Started 11. Turn off DC power at the source, disconnect all cables to the switch, and install the switch in your network. 12. After you complete Express Setup, refresh the personal computer IP address: • For a dynamically-assigned IP address, disconnect the personal computer from the switch, and reconnect the personal computer to the network. The network DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the personal computer.
Getting Started Device Manager Web Interface Chapter 2 You can manage the switch by using the Device Manager Web interface to configure and monitor the switch. The Device Manager Web interface is a graphical device management tool for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting individual switches. The Device Manager Web interface displays real-time views of switch configuration and performance.
Chapter 2 Getting Started Studio 5000 Environment You manage the switch by using the Logix Designer application in the Studio 5000 environment. The Logix Designer application is IEC 61131-3 compliant and offers relay ladder, structured text, function block diagram, and sequential function chart editors for you to develop application programs.
Getting Started Command Line Interface Chapter 2 You can manage the switch from the command-line interface (CLI) by connecting your personal computer directly to the switch console port or through the network by using Telnet. Follow these steps to access the CLI through the console port. 1. Connect the supplied RJ45-to-DB-9 adapter cable to the standard 9-pin serial port on the personal computer. 2. Connect the other end of the cable to the console port on the switch.

Chapter 3 Switch Software Features The port ID consists of port type (Gigabit Ethernet for Gigabit ports and Fast Ethernet for 10/100 Mbps ports), unit number (1, 2, or 3) and port number (1-2 for Gigabits, 1-4 for the 6 port base and 1-8 for all others). Gigabit Ethernet is abbreviated as Gi and Fast Ethernet as Fa.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 Once you complete Express Setup, a global macro (ab-global) executes. This macro configures the switch for typical industrial automation applications by using the EtherNet/IP protocol.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Table 2 - Port Roles (continued) Port Role Description Phone for Automation Apply this role to ports to be connected to IP phones. A desktop device, such as a computer, can be connected to the IP phone. Both the IP phone and the connected computer have network access through the port: • Port is set to Trunk mode. • Port security supports three MAC IDs. This role prioritizes voice traffic over general data traffic to ensure clear voice reception on the IP phones.
Switch Software Features Power over Ethernet (PoE) Ports Chapter 3 PoE expansion module ports are software-configurable and provide these features: • Support for IEEE 802.3af (PoE)-compliant devices. • Support for IEEE 802.3at Type 2 (PoE+), which increases the available power that can be drawn by powered devices from 15.4…30 W per port. • Automatic detection and power budgeting. The module maintains a power budget, monitors and tracks requests for power, and grants power only when it is available.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Powered Device Detection and Initial Power Allocation A PoE expansion module detects a powered device when a port with PoE capability is active, PoE is enabled (the default), and the connected device is not being powered by another power source. After device detection, the module determines the device power requirements based on its type: • The module classifies the detected IEEE device within a power consumption class.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 If the module detects a fault caused by an undervoltage, overvoltage, overtemperature, oscillator-fault, or short-circuit condition, it turns off power to the port, generates a syslog message, and updates the power budget and status indicators. Power Management Modes PoE expansion module ports support these modes: • Auto (default)—The port automatically detects if the connected device requires power. This is the default mode.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features • Static—The module pre-allocates power to the port even when no powered device is connected and guarantees that power is available for the port. The module allocates the port-configured maximum wattage, and the amount is never adjusted through the IEEE class or by CDP messages from a powered Cisco end device.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 With PoE+, if you do not manually configure the cutoff-power value, the module automatically determines it by using the device IEEE classification and LLDP power negotiation or CDP power negotiation with a Cisco end device. If CDP or LLDP are not enabled, the default value of 30 W is applied. However, without CDP or LLDP, the module does not allow devices to consume more than 15.
Chapter 3 VLANs Switch Software Features A virtual local-area network (VLAN) is a logical segment of network users and resources grouped by function, team, or application. This segmentation is without regard to the physical location of the users and resources. For example, VLANs can be based on the departments in your company or by sets of users who communicate mostly with each other. The switch ships with a default VLAN to which each switch port initially belongs.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 Devices attached to switch ports in different VLANs cannot communicate with each other through the switch. Inter-VLAN communication requires a router or Layer 3 switch. The router or Layer 3 switch must be configured to support routing across VLANs (inter-VLAN routing), and additional security policies must be set. If your network is also using a DHCP server, ensure that the server is accessible to the devices in all the VLANs.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Group Users The network shown in Figure 8 on page 67 provides access to three types of network users: wired employees, wireless (or mobile) employees, and wired and wireless company visitors. Each user type requires different access levels to the company network.
Switch Software Features IGMP Snooping with Querier Chapter 3 Layer 2 switches can use IGMP snooping to constrain the flooding of multicast traffic by dynamically configuring Layer 2 interfaces so that multicast traffic is forwarded to only those interfaces associated with IP multicast devices. As the name implies, IGMP snooping requires the LAN switch to snoop on the IGMP transmissions between the host and the router and to keep track of multicast groups and member ports.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Spanning Tree Protocol Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a Layer 2 link management protocol that provides path redundancy while preventing loops in the network. For a Layer 2 Ethernet network to function properly, only one active path can exist between any two stations. Multiple active paths among end stations cause loops in the network. If a loop exists in the network, end stations can receive duplicate messages.
Switch Software Features Storm Control Chapter 3 Storm control prevents traffic on a LAN from being disrupted by a broadcast, multicast, or unicast storm on one of the physical interfaces. A LAN storm occurs when packets flood the LAN, creating excessive traffic and degrading network performance. Errors in the protocol-stack implementation, mistakes in network configurations, or users issuing a denial-of-service attack can cause a storm.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Figure 9 - Storm Control Example Forwarded Traffic Blocked Traffic Total number of broadcast packets or bytes Threshold 0 T1 T2 T3 T4 T5 Time The combination of the storm-control suppression level and the 1-second time interval controls the way the storm control algorithm works. A higher threshold lets more packets pass through. A threshold value of 100% means that no limit is placed on the traffic. A value of 0.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 The following table shows port roles and the maximum supported MAC IDs.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features EtherChannels An EtherChannel (or port group) is a group of two or more Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet switch ports bundled into a single logical link, creating a higher bandwidth link between two switches. The switch supports up to six EtherChannels. Each EtherChannel can consist of up to eight compatible, configured ethernet ports. Figure 10 shows two EtherChannels.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 You can configure an EtherChannel in one of these modes: Port Aggregation Protocol (PAgP), Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP), or On. Configure both ends of the EtherChannel in the same mode. • When you configure one end of an EtherChannel in either PAgP or LACP mode, the system negotiates with the other end of the channel to determine which ports become active. Incompatible ports are suspended.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features CIP Sync Time Synchronization (Precision Time Protocol) The IEEE 1588 standard defines a protocol called Precision Time Protocol (PTP) that enables precise synchronization of clocks in measurement and control systems. We refer to this as CIP Sync time synchronization. The clocks are synchronized over the EtherNet/IP communication network. PTP enables systems that include clocks of various precision, resolution, and stability to synchronize.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 • No-neighbor—This port is a secondary edge port connected to a non-REP switch. The no-neighbor edge ports contain all properties of regular edge ports. These ports enable the construction of a REP ring containing a switch that does not support REP protocol. • None—This port is not part of the REP segment. REP and STP can coexist on the same switch, but not on the same port. REP does not interact with STP.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features REP Ring Segment The segment shown in the following figure, with both edge ports on the same switch, is a ring segment. In this configuration, there is connectivity between the edge ports through the segment. With this configuration, you can create a redundant connection between any two switches in the segment. In Figure 12, E1 or E2 can be configured as the primary edge port.

The SNMP manager runs SNMP management software.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 Supported MIBs The Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 switches support the following MIBs.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Port Mirroring Port mirroring is for advanced users with experience in troubleshooting traffic and protocol issues on networks. The port mirroring feature copies (or mirrors) traffic on one port to a monitoring port where the packet can be captured by a network protocol analyzer tool. Use port mirroring as a diagnostic tool or debugging feature. Port mirroring does not affect the switching of network traffic on the monitored port.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 Types of Routing Stratix 8300 switches can route packets by using these methods. Table 4 - Routing Feature Description Static and connected routing See Static and Connected Routing on page 84. Dynamic routing Dynamic routing protocols are used by Layer 3 switches to dynamically calculate the best route for forwarding traffic.
Chapter 3 Switch Software Features Static and Connected Routing Static and connected routing are implemented both on the Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 switches. • Static routing—Defines explicit paths between two devices (routers and switches). You must manually define the route information, including the destination IP address, destination subnet mask, and next hop router IP address.
Switch Software Features Chapter 3 Cryptographic IOS Software (optional) The Stratix 8000 and Stratix 8300 cryptographic IOS (available as a separate catalog number for downloading) provides network security by encrypting administrator traffic during Telnet and SNMP sessions.

With DHCP persistence, you can assign a specific IP address to each port, so that the device attached to a given port receives the same IP address. TIP You must be online to view information on this tab.
Chapter 5 Manage the Switch via the Studio 5000 Environment Time Sync Configuration Use this tab to synchronize the ports by using time synchronization (based on Precision Time Protocol [PTP]). PTP synchronizes within 25-nanosecond accuracy the real-time clocks of the devices in a network. Using the best master clock algorithm, the switch identifies the switch port that is connected to a device with the best clock source.
Manage the Switch via the Studio 5000 Environment Chapter 5 Field Description Time Sync Enable Check to enable time synchronization on the device. Only the ports on the base switch module are capable of time synchronization. The switch expansion modules do not support time synchronization. However, time synchronization is interdependent with the Enable Expansion Port Forwarding of Time Synchronization setting. Expansion ports are put in Forward mode when Time Synchronization is disabled on base ports.
Chapter 5 Manage the Switch via the Studio 5000 Environment Use the Time Sync Information tab to view current information about the realtime clocks in the network. The CIP Time Synchronization protocol provides a standard mechanism to synchronize clocks across a network of distributed devices. Time Sync Information TIP The CIP Sync Time Synchronization feature supports both Boundary and Endto-End Transparent mode.
Manage the Switch via the Studio 5000 Environment Chapter 5 Field Description Source Displays the clock time source: • Atomic Clock • GPS • Terrestrial Radio • CIP Time Synchronization • NTP • HAND Set • Other • Internal Oscillator Priority 1 Priority 2 Displays the relative priority of the Grandmaster clock to other clocks in the system. The value is between 0…255. The highest priority is 0. Local Clock Displays properties for the local clock.
Chapter 5 Manage the Switch via the Studio 5000 Environment Save and Restore Switch Configuration Use this tab to save the switch configuration to a file for archiving, or restore a switch configuration stored locally on the computer, or within the software project. You must be online to save and restore configuration files. Most of the settings appear dimmed when the switch is offline. Be prepared to enter a valid switch password to save and restore a switch configuration.

Chapter 6 Troubleshoot the Switch Following are some basic troubleshooting for issues related to displaying the Device Manager Web interface. Device Manager Web Interface Issues Table 22 - Device Manager Web Interface Issues Issue Resolution Device Manager Web interface does not appear If you cannot display the Device Manager Web interface from your computer or laptop, make sure that you entered the correct switch IP address in the browser.
Troubleshoot the Switch Access Direct Managed Mode Chapter 6 You can display the Device Manager Web interface and manage the switch through a physical connection between one of the switch ports and your computer or laptop. This type of management connection is referred to as the Direct Managed mode. This mode is typically used to connect to the switch by using the Device Manager Web interface when the IP address of the switch is unknown.
Chapter 6 Troubleshoot the Switch Restart or Reset the Switch If you cannot solve an issue by reconfiguring a feature, either restarting or resetting the switch can solve the issue or help you to eliminate probable causes. If the issue exists after you reset the switch to its default settings, it is unlikely that the switch is causing the issue. Option Description Restart This option restarts the switch without turning off power.
Troubleshoot the Switch Chapter 6 Reset the Switch to Factory Defaults ATTENTION: Resetting the switch deletes all customized switch settings, including the IP address, and returns the switch to its factory default. The same software image is retained. To manage the switch or to display the device manager, reconfigure basic switch settings as described in Chapter 4, Manage the Switch via the Device Manager Web Interface and use the new IP address.
Chapter 6 Troubleshoot the Switch Troubleshoot a Firmware Upgrade If you attempted to upgrade the switch firmware but received a message that the upgrade failed, make sure that you still have access to the switch. If you still have switch access, follow these steps. 1. Make sure that you downloaded the correct .tar file from http://www.rockwellautomation.com. 2. If you downloaded the correct .
