Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch Figure 1 Backbone Application 1.1.2 Bridging Example In this example, the Switch connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch. You can provide a super-fast uplink connection by using a Gigabit Ethernet/mini-GBIC port on the Switch.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch as ATM at much lower cost while still being able to use existing adapters and switches. Moreover, the current LAN structure can be retained as all ports can freely communicate with each other. Figure 3 High Performance Switched Workgroup Application 1.1.4 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Examples A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one group.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your Switch 1.2 Ways to Manage the Switch Use any of the following methods to manage the Switch. • Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the Switch using a (supported) web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 32. • FTP. Use FTP for firmware upgrades and configuration backup/restore. See Section 39.4.1 on page 324. • SNMP. The Switch can be monitored by an SNMP manager. See Section 40.5 on page 334. • Cluster Management.
C HAPT ER 2 Hardware Installation and Connection 2.1 Installation Scenarios This chapter shows you how to install and connect the Switch. The Switch can be placed on a desktop or rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack. Use the rubber feet in a desktop installation and the brackets in a rack-mounted installation. Note: For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) at the back of the Switch. This is especially important for enclosed rack installations.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection • Make sure the position of the Switch does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all necessary precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit. 2.3.2 Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the Switch 1 Position a mounting bracket on one side of the Switch, lining up the four screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the Switch.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection Figure 6 Mounting the Switch on a Rack 2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M5 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes into the rack. 3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to attach the second mounting bracket on the other side of the rack.

C HAPT ER 9 VLAN 9.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to configure 802.1Q tagged and port-based VLANs. The type of screen you see here depends on the VLAN Type you selected in the Switch Setup screen. 9.1.1 What You Can Do • Use the VLAN Status screen (Section 9.2 on page 89) to view all VLAN groups. • Use the VLAN Detail screen (Section 9.2.1 on page 90) to view detailed port settings and status of the VLAN group. • Use the Private VLAN Status screen (Section 9.
Chapter 9 VLAN VLANs can be created statically by hand or dynamically through GVRP. The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN and provides the information that switches need to process the frame across the network. A tagged frame is four bytes longer than an untagged frame and contains two bytes of TPID (Tag Protocol Identifier, residing within the type/length field of the Ethernet frame) and two bytes of TCI (Tag Control Information, starts after the source address field of the Ethernet frame).
Chapter 9 VLAN GVRP GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) is a registration protocol that defines a way for switches to register necessary VLAN members on ports across the network. Enable this function to permit VLAN groups beyond the local Switch. Please refer to the following table for common IEEE 802.1Q VLAN terminology.

C HAPTER 13 Spanning Tree Protocol 13.1 Spanning Tree Protocol Overview The Switch supports Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) as defined in the following standards. • IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol • IEEE 802.1w Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol • IEEE 802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol The Switch also allows you to set up multiple STP configurations (or trees). Ports can then be assigned to the trees. 13.1.
Chapter 13 Spanning Tree Protocol The Switch uses IEEE 802.1w RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) that allows faster convergence of the spanning tree than STP (while also being backwards compatible with STP-only aware bridges). In RSTP, topology change information is directly propagated throughout the network from the device that generates the topology change. In STP, a longer delay is required as the device that causes a topology change first notifies the root bridge that then notifies the network.
Chapter 13 Spanning Tree Protocol STP Port States STP assigns five port states to eliminate packet looping. A bridge port is not allowed to go directly from blocking state to forwarding state so as to eliminate transient loops. Table 47 STP Port States PORT STATE DESCRIPTION Disabled STP is disabled (default). Blocking Only configuration and management BPDUs are received and processed. Listening All BPDUs are received and processed. Note: The listening state does not exist in RSTP.
Chapter 13 Spanning Tree Protocol • One Common and Internal Spanning Tree (CIST) that represents the entire network’s connectivity. • Grouping of multiple bridges (or switching devices) into regions that appear as one single bridge on the network. • A VLAN can be mapped to a specific Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI). MSTI allows multiple VLANs to use the same spanning tree. • Load-balancing is possible as traffic from different VLANs can use distinct paths in a region. 13.

C HAPTER 17 Link Aggregation 17.1 Overview This chapter shows you how to logically aggregate physical links to form one logical, higherbandwidth link. Link aggregation (trunking) is the grouping of physical ports into one logical higher-capacity link. You may want to trunk ports if for example, it is cheaper to use multiple lower-speed links than to under-utilize a high-speed, but more costly, single-port link. However, the more ports you aggregate then the fewer available ports you have.
Chapter 17 Link Aggregation is, if an operational port fails, then one of the “standby” ports become operational without user intervention. Please note that: • You must connect all ports point-to-point to the same Ethernet switch and configure the ports for LACP trunking. • LACP only works on full-duplex links. • All ports in the same trunk group must have the same media type, speed, duplex mode and flow control settings.
Chapter 17 Link Aggregation The following table describes the labels in this screen. Table 61 Advanced Application > Link Aggregation Status LABEL DESCRIPTION Group ID This field displays the group ID to identify a trunk group, that is, one logical link containing multiple ports.

C HAPTER 24 Multicast 24.1 Multicast Overview This chapter shows you how to configure various multicast features. Traditionally, IP packets are transmitted in one of either two ways - Unicast (1 sender to 1 recipient) or Broadcast (1 sender to everybody on the network). Multicast delivers IP packets to just a group of hosts on the network. IGMP (Internet Group Management Protocol) is a network-layer protocol used to establish membership in a multicast group - it is not used to carry user data.
Chapter 24 Multicast through it, picks out the group registration information, and configures multicasting accordingly. IGMP snooping allows the Switch to learn multicast groups without you having to manually configure them. The Switch forwards multicast traffic destined for multicast groups (that it has learned from IGMP snooping or that you have manually configured) to ports that are members of that group.
Chapter 24 Multicast one query from a router (X) or MLD Done or Report message from any upstream port, it will be broadcast to all connected upstream ports. X 1 Query 2 9 8 3 Report 7 4 6 5 Done MLD Messages A multicast router or switch periodically sends general queries to MLD hosts to update the multicast forwarding table. When an MLD host wants to join a multicast group, it sends an MLD Report message for that address. An MLD Done message is similar to an IGMP Leave message.
Chapter 24 Multicast Figure 124 MVR Network Example VLAN 1 Multicast VLAN S VLAN 2 VLAN 3 Types of MVR Ports In MVR, a source port is a port on the Switch that can send and receive multicast traffic in a multicast VLAN while a receiver port can only receive multicast traffic. Once configured, the Switch maintains a forwarding table that matches the multicast stream to the associated multicast group. MVR Modes You can set your Switch to operate in either dynamic or compatible mode.

Chapter 26 IP Source Guard 26.10.1.2 DHCP Snooping Database The Switch stores the binding table in volatile memory. If the Switch restarts, it loads static bindings from permanent memory but loses the dynamic bindings, in which case the devices in the network have to send DHCP requests again. As a result, it is recommended you configure the DHCP snooping database. The DHCP snooping database maintains the dynamic bindings for DHCP snooping and ARP inspection in a file on an external TFTP server.
Chapter 26 IP Source Guard 1 Enable DHCP snooping on the Switch. 2 Enable DHCP snooping on each VLAN, and configure DHCP relay option 82. 3 Configure trusted and untrusted ports, and specify the maximum number of DHCP packets that each port can receive per second. 4 Configure static bindings. 26.10.2 ARP Inspection Overview Use ARP inspection to filter unauthorized ARP packets on the network. This can prevent many kinds of man-in-the-middle attacks, such as the one in the following example.
Chapter 26 IP Source Guard 26.10.2.2 Trusted vs. Untrusted Ports Every port is either a trusted port or an untrusted port for ARP inspection. This setting is independent of the trusted/untrusted setting for DHCP snooping. You can also specify the maximum rate at which the Switch receives ARP packets on untrusted ports. The Switch does not discard ARP packets on trusted ports for any reason.
C HAPTER 27 Loop Guard 27.1 Loop Guard Overview This chapter shows you how to configure the Switch to guard against loops on the edge of your network. Loop guard allows you to configure the Switch to shut down a port if it detects that packets sent out on that port loop back to the Switch. While you can use Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) to prevent loops in the core of your network. STP cannot prevent loops that occur on the edge of your network. Figure 163 Loop Guard vs.

C HAPTER 36 Differentiated Services 36.1 Differentiated Services Overview This chapter shows you how to configure Differentiated Services (DiffServ) on the Switch. Quality of Service (QoS) is used to prioritize source-to-destination traffic flows. All packets in the flow are given the same priority. You can use CoS (class of service) to give different priorities to different packet types.
Chapter 36 Differentiated Services The DSCP value determines the PHB (Per-Hop Behavior), that each packet gets as it is forwarded across the DiffServ network. Based on the marking rule different kinds of traffic can be marked for different priorities of forwarding. Resources can then be allocated according to the DSCP values and the configured policies. DiffServ Network Example The following figure depicts a DiffServ network consisting of a group of directly connected DiffServcompliant network devices.

C HAPTER 37 DHCP 37.1 DHCP Overview This chapter shows you how to configure the DHCP feature. DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol RFC 2131 and RFC 2132) allows individual computers to obtain TCP/IP configuration at start-up from a server. If you configure the Switch as a DHCP relay agent, then the Switch forwards DHCP requests to DHCP server on your network.
Chapter 37 DHCP DHCP Relay Configure DHCP relay on the Switch if the DHCP clients and the DHCP server are not in the same broadcast domain. During the initial IP address leasing, the Switch helps to relay network information (such as the IP address and subnet mask) between a DHCP client and a DHCP server. Once the DHCP client obtains an IP address and can connect to the network, network information renewal is done between the DHCP client and the DHCP server without the help of the Switch.

A PPENDIX C IPv6 Overview IPv6 (Internet Protocol version 6), is designed to enhance IP address size and features. The increase in IPv6 address size to 128 bits (from the 32-bit IPv4 address) allows up to 3.4 x 1038 IP addresses. IPv6 Addressing The 128-bit IPv6 address is written as eight 16-bit hexadecimal blocks separated by colons (:). This is an example IPv6 address 2001:0db8:1a2b:0015:0000:0000:1a2f:0000. IPv6 addresses can be abbreviated in two ways: • Leading zeros in a block can be omitted.
Appendix C IPv6 Global Address A global address uniquely identifies a device on the Internet. It is similar to a “public IP address” in IPv4. A global unicast address starts with a 2 or 3. Unspecified Address An unspecified address (0:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 or ::) is used as the source address when a device does not have its own address. It is similar to “0.0.0.0” in IPv4. Loopback Address A loopback address (0:0:0:0:0:0:0:1 or ::1) allows a host to send packets to itself. It is similar to “127.0.0.1” in IPv4.
Appendix C IPv6 Table 195 Reserved Multicast Address (continued) MULTICAST ADDRESS FF0A:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 FF0B:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 FF0C:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 FF0D:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 FF0E:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 FF0F:0:0:0:0:0:0:0 Subnet Masking Both an IPv6 address and IPv6 subnet mask compose of 128-bit binary digits, which are divided into eight 16-bit blocks and written in hexadecimal notation. Hexadecimal uses four bits for each character (1 ~ 10, A ~ F). Each block’s 16 bits are then represented by four hexadecimal characters.
Appendix C IPv6 combines its interface ID and global and subnet information advertised from the router. This is a routable global IP address. DHCPv6 The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6, RFC 3315) is a server-client protocol that allows a DHCP server to assign and pass IPv6 network addresses, prefixes and other configuration information to DHCP clients. DHCPv6 servers and clients exchange DHCP messages using UDP.
Appendix C IPv6 such as the system name. The interface-ID option provides slot number, port information and the VLAN ID to the DHCPv6 server. The remote-ID option (if any) is stripped from the Relay-Reply messages before the relay agent sends the packets to the clients. The DHCP server copies the interface-ID option from the Relay-Forward message into the Relay-Reply message and sends it to the relay agent. The interface-ID should not change even after the relay agent restarts.
Appendix C IPv6 determine whether the destination address is on-link and can be reached directly without passing through a router. If the address is onlink, the address is considered as the next hop. Otherwise, the Switch determines the next-hop from the default router list or routing table. Once the next hop IP address is known, the Switch looks into the neighbor cache to get the link-layer address and sends the packet when the neighbor is reachable.
Appendix C IPv6 4 Double click Dibbler - a DHCPv6 client. 5 Click Start and then OK. 6 Now your computer can obtain an IPv6 address from a DHCPv6 server. Example - Enabling IPv6 on Windows 7 Windows 7 supports IPv6 by default. DHCPv6 is also enabled when you enable IPv6 on a Windows 7 computer. To enable IPv6 in Windows 7: 1 Select Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center > Local Area Connection. 2 Select the Internet Protocol Version 6 (TCP/IPv6) checkbox to enable it.
Appendix C IPv6 4 Click Close to exit the Local Area Connection Status screen. 5 Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. 6 Use the ipconfig command to check your dynamic IPv6 address.
