5.8 State Activity The State Activity screen provides the following information: Active (select) - The port automatically sends LACP protocol packets. Passive (no select) - The port does not automatically send the LACP protocol packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packets from the opposite device. A link with either two active LACP ports or one active port can perform dynamic LACP trunking.
5.9 Filter Database 5.9.1 IGMP Snooping The following topologies shown below indicate how the IGMP Query works within a network: 2. 1. 3. The 1008 switch supports IP multicast. By enabling IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) protocol, you will be able to display IGMP snooping information from this screen. member ports. You will be able to see the different multicast groups, VID and IP multicast addresses range from 224.0.0.0 through 239.255.255.255.
the ports to detect IGMP queries and report packets and manage IP multicast traffic through the switch. IGMP uses the following three fundamental types of messages: Message Description Query A message sent from the query (IGMP router or switch) asking for a response from each host belonging to the multicast group. Report A message sent by a host to the query to indicate that the host wants to be or is a member of a given group indicated in the report message.
incoming packets with static MAC already existing in the address table can be forwarded normally. You can disable the port from learning any new MAC addresses, and then use the static MAC addresses screen to define a list of MAC addresses that can use the secure port. Once you have entered the settings, click the Apply button to apply the changes for port security. 5.9.4 MAC Address Filtering MAC address filtering allows the switch to drop unwanted traffic.
allows you to isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. Basically, creating a VLAN from a switch is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, all the network devices are still plugged into the same switch physically. The 1008 switch supports both port-based and protocol-based VLANs from the web. By default, VLAN support is enabled and all ports on the switch belong to the default VLAN.
5.10.1 Basic VLAN Setting To create a VLAN and add tagged member ports: 1. From the Main Menu, select Administrator. 2. Select VLAN Configuration. 3. Click the Add button. 4. Type a name for the new VLAN. 5. Type a VID (between 2-4094). (The default is 1.) 6. From the Available Ports field, select the ports to include in the VLAN. 7. Select Add. 8. Click Apply. To configure port VID settings: 1. From the Main Menu, select Tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) VLAN page. 2. Select Port VID Settings.
Ingress Filtering Ingress filtering allows frames belonging to a specific VLAN to be forwarded if the port belongs to that VLAN. The 1008 switch has two ingress filtering rules: Ingress Filtering Rule 1: Forward only packets with VID matching this port's configured VID Ingress Filtering. Rule 2: 5.11 Drop Untagged Frame. Spanning Tree The Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is a standardized method (IEEE 802.1D) for avoiding loops in switched networks.
3. Review spanning tree information about the Root Bridge from the following screen. The following table describes the Spanning Tree parameters. Parameter Description Priority You can change the priority value which is a value used to identify the root bridge. The bridge with the lowest value has the highest priority and is selected as the root. Enter a number 1 through 65535.
Forward Delay You can change forward delay time, which is the number of time seconds a port waits before changing from its Spanning-Tree Protocol learning and listening states to the forwarding state. Enter a number 4 through 30. The following parameters can be configured on each port. Click the Apply button to modify. The following table describes the path cost and port priority. Parameter Description Port Priority You can make a port more or less likely to become the root port.
5.12 Port Mirroring Port Mirroring is a method used to monitor traffic in switched networks. Traffic through ports can be monitored by one specific port. That is, traffic goes in or out monitored ports will be duplicated into mirror port. The following explains the port mirroring settings. Roving Analysis State - Enable or disable the port mirror function. Mirror Ports – Lists the ports you want to mirror. All mirror port traffic will be copied to mirror port.
3. Contact - Enter the name of a person or organization. 4. Click the Apply button. Community strings: serve as passwords and can be entered as one of the following. Read only: Enables requests accompanied by this string to display MIB-object information. Read write: Enables requests accompanied by this string to display MIB-object information and to set MIB objects. Trap Manager A trap manager is a management station that receives traps and alerts generated by the switch.
5.14 Security Manager The Security Manager allows you to modify your user name and password. The default login is: Default User Name: root Default Password: root 5.15 TFTP Update Firmware The following menu options provide system control functions to update firmware and remote boot the switch. 1.
