Purpose
This guide discusses how to install your 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch.
Terms/Usage
In this guide, the term Switch (first letter upper case) refers to your
16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch, and
switch (first letter lower case) refers to other Ethernet switches.
INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps
Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart Switch and some background
information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit Ethernet switching
technology.
Switching Technology
Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology
is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges
Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol
transmitting among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN
segments.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network
capacity available to users on a local area network. A switch increases
capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local area
network into different segments, which dont compete with each other
for network transmission capacity.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the
individual segments. The switch, without interfering with any other
segments, automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one
segment to another. By doing this the total network capacity is
multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and
adapter cards.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the
previous generation of network bridges, which were characterized by
higher latencies. Routers have also been used to segment local area
networks, but the cost of a router, the setup and maintenance required
make routers relatively impractical. Today switches are an ideal
solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems.
Features
1610/100/1000Mbps Auto-negotiation Gigabit Ethernet ports
All RJ45 ports support auto MDI/MDIX, so there is no need to
use cross-over cables or an up-link port

Unpacking
Open the shipping cartons of the Switch and carefully unpacks its
contents. The carton should contain the following items:
One 16-Port 10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Web Smart
Switch
One AC power cord, suitable for your areas electrical power
connections
Four rubber feet to be used for shock cushioning
Screws and two mounting brackets
CD-Rom with Web Management Utility and Users Guide
If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local
reseller for replacement.
Installation
The site where you install the hub stack may greatly affect its
performance. When installing, consider the following pointers:
Install the Switch in a fairly cool and dry place. See Technical
Specifications for the acceptable temperature and humidity operating
ranges.
Install the Switch in a site free from strong electromagnetic field
generators (such as motors), vibration, dust, and direct exposure to
sunlight.
9
Leave at least 10cm of space at the front and rear of the hub for
ventilation.
Install the Switch on a sturdy, level surface that can support its weight,
or in an EIA standard-size equipment rack. For information on rack
installation, see the next section, Rack Mounting.
When installing the Switch on a level surface, attach the rubber feet to
the bottom of each device. The rubber feet cushion the hub and
protect the hub case from scratching.
Rack Mounting
The switch can be mounted in an EIA standard-size, 19-inch rack,
which can be placed in a wiring closet with other equipment. Attach
the mounting brackets at the switchs front panel (one on each side),
and secure them with the provided screws.
AC Power
The Switch used the AC power supply 100-240V AC, 50-60 Hz. The
power switch is located at the rear of the unit adjacent to the AC
power connector and the system fan. The switchs power supply will
adjust to the local power source automatically and may be turned on
without having any or all LAN segment cables connected.

Mirror Setting
Port Mirroring is a method of monitoring network traffic that forwards
a copy of each incoming and/or outgoing packet from one port of a
network switch to another port where the packet can be studied. It
enables the manager to keep close track of switch performance and
alter it if necessary.
Configuring the port mirroring by assigning a source port from which
to copy all packets and a sniffer port where those packets will be sent.
The selection of the sniffer mode is as follow:
RX (receive) mode: this mode will duplicate the data that send to the
source and forward to the sniffer port.
