[. . . ] This parameter is useful for Untag port member. UnTag Frame ­ Accept or drop incoming frames without VLAN tag. Tag Frame ­ Accept or drop incoming frames with VLAN tag. Finally, there are 2 buttons to select: Apply: To submit the port configuration settings to the switch. Back: To back to the 802. 1q main setting page. 20 2. 4. 2. 2 802. 1Q VLAN Configuration The following figures are the pages to add/delete/edit the 802. 1Q VLAN entry. Each VLAN entry has 2 parameters, VLAN ID (VID) and Port Member to be assigned. After selecting the Create New VLAN, the figure shown as below will show up: VID ­ a unique VLAN ID, range is from 2 to 4094 (ID No. 1 is reserved for default group) Port Member ­ Click the images just below the port number which wants to be grouped. Select one of three member options (Not/Tag/ Untag) by clicking the image. Input the VID and check the member row to select the ports which belong to this VLAN group. After these settings are completed, click the Create button to submit these data to the switch. Click the Cancel button to abort the actions and back to the previous page. 21 Here is an example to configure the 802. 1Q VLAN. Now there are 5 existing 802. 1Q VLAN groups (including default group) shown as below. If the group with VID 200 wants to be removed, just use the VLAN ID dropdown to select the VID 200 then click the Remove This VLAN button to do the deletion. After the action mentioned above, the 802. 1Q VLAN table will be changed like this: The group with VID 200 is successfully deleted. 22 If you would like to show or edit the port members of a specified 802. 1Q VLAN group, use the VLAN ID dropdown to specify a VID (e. g. Then the current settings for this group will be displayed. At this moment, edit the port members for the current group (e. g. VID 300): Port17 and Port18 are new joined to the group with Tag member option. Finally, click the Apply button to activate and save the modifications. 23 2. 5 Trunk The Ether-2416W web smart switch supports MAC-based trunking, which allows more than one port to be grouped together as a single link connection between two switch devices. This is also useful for switch-to-server and switch-to-router applications. The Ether-2416W web smart switch allows four trunk groups that can accommodate up to eight trunk members. A port in one trunk group cannot be a member of another trunk simultaneously. This feature provides redundancy and increases the effective bandwidth through a link. The traffic patterns can be more balanced between the ports within a trunk group by dynamically performing the MAC-based algorithm. It is supported only on point-to-point links with MACs operating full duplex mode. All links in the same trunk group must operate at the same rate. The Ether-2416W web smart switch provides dynamic failover when trunk is enabled. [. . . ] System will be automatically rebooted after configurations are already reset. All configuration changes before the reset procedure will be lost. The Ether-2416W web smart switch also provides an alternative to do Reset System by using the Reset button on the rear panel: While the system is running (the DIAG LED indicator is ON), pressing and holding the Reset button (over 5 seconds) until the DIAG LED indicator is starting to flash at any time will activate the Write Default procedure. After the procedure mentioned above is done, the switch will be rebooted and initialized using the default settings automatically. [. . . ]
