3 2. Web-based Switch Configuration Management Options Logging into the Web UI Smart Wizard Web User Interface (Web UI) Management Options The Switch provides multiple access platforms that can be used to configure, manage, and monitor networking features available on this Switch. Currently there are three management platforms available, which are described below. Command Line Interface (CLI) The Switch can be managed, out-of-band, by using the console port on the front panel of the Switch. Alternatively, the Switch can also be managed, in-band, by using a Telnet connection to any of the LAN ports on the Switch. Refer to the DGS-1250 Series CLI Reference Guide for more detailed information about the CLI. SNMP-based Management The Switch can be managed with an SNMP-compatible Network Management System (NMS). The Switch supports SNMP v1/v2c/v3. The SNMP agent on the Switch decodes the incoming SNMP messages and responds to requests with MIB objects stored in the database. The SNMP agent on the Switch updates the MIB objects to generate statistics and counters. Web User Interface (Web UI) The Web UI can be accessed from any computer running web browsing software connected to any of the RJ45 or SFP/SFP+ ports. The Web UI on the Switch can also be accessed using an HTTPS (SSL) connection. The Web UI is a graphical representation of the features that can be viewed and configured on the Switch. Most of the features available through the CLI can be accessed through the Web UI. Web browsers like Microsoft Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Safari can be used.

The Switch ports can supply about 48 VDC power to Powered Devices (PDs) over Category 5 or Category 3 UTP Ethernet cables. The Switch follows the standard Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) pin-out Alternative A, whereby power is sent out over pins 1, 2, 3, and 6. The Switches work with all D-Link 802.3af capable devices. The Switch includes the following PoE features: • Auto-discovery recognizes the connection of a PD and automatically sends power to it. • The auto-disable feature occurs under two conditions: o If the total power consumption exceeds the system power limit o If the per-port power consumption exceeds the per port power limit • Active circuit protection automatically disables the port if there is a short. Other ports will remain active. Based on IEEE 802.3af/at, power is received and supplied according to the following classifications: Class Maximum power used by the PD Maximum power supplied by the Switch 0 12.95 Watts 15.4 Watts 1 3.84 Watts 4 Watts 2 6.49 Watts 7 Watts 3 12.95 Watts 15.4 Watts 4 25.5 Watts 30 Watts

SNMP Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an OSI Layer 7 (Application Layer) designed specifically for managing and monitoring network devices. SNMP enables network management stations to read and modify the settings of gateways, routers, switches, and other network devices. Use SNMP to configure system features, monitor performance, and detect potential problems with the Switch, switch group, or network. Managed devices that support SNMP include software (referred to as an agent) which runs locally on the device. A defined set of variables (managed objects) is maintained by the SNMP agent and used to manage the device. These objects are defined in a Management Information Base (MIB), which provides a standard presentation of the information controlled by the on-board SNMP agent. SNMP defines both the format of the MIB specifications and the protocol used to access this information over the network. The Switch supports the SNMP versions 1, 2c, and 3. The three versions of SNMP vary in the level of security provided between the management station and the network device. In SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c, user authentication is accomplished using ‘community strings’, which function like passwords. The remote user SNMP application and the Switch SNMP must use the same community string. SNMP packets from any station that has not been authenticated are ignored (dropped). The default community strings for the Switch used for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c management access are: • public - Allows authorized management stations to retrieve MIB objects. • private - Allows authorized management stations to retrieve and modify MIB objects. The SNMPv3 protocol uses a more sophisticated authentication process that is separated into two parts. The first part maintains a list of users and their attributes that are allowed to act as SNMP managers. The second part describes what each user in that list can do as an SNMP manager. The SNMPv3 protocol also provides an additional layer of security that can be used to encrypt SNMP messages. The Switch allows groups of users to be listed and configured with a shared set of privileges. The SNMP version may also be set for a listed group of SNMP managers. Thus, you may create a group of SNMP managers that are allowed to view read-only information or receive traps using SNMPv1 while assigning a higher level of security to another group, granting read/write privileges using SNMPv3. Using SNMPv3, users or groups can be allowed or be prevented from performing specific SNMP management functions. These are defined using the Object Identifier (OID) associated with a specific MIB.

DGS-1250 Series Gigabit Ethernet Smart Managed Switch Web UI Reference Guide

35 MIBs A Management Information Base (MIB) stores management and counter information. The Switch uses the standard MIB-II Management Information Base module, and so values for MIB objects can be retrieved using any SNMP-based network management software. In addition to the standard MIB-II, the Switch also supports its own proprietary enterprise MIB as an extended Management Information Base. Specifying the MIB Object Identifier may also retrieve the proprietary MIB. MIB values can be either read-only or read-write. The Switch incorporates a flexible SNMP management system that can be customized to suit the needs of the networks and the preferences of the network administrator. The three versions of SNMP vary in the level of security provided between the management station and the network device. SNMP settings are configured using the menus located in the SNMP folder of the Web UI. Traps Traps are messages that alert network personnel of events that occur on the Switch. The events can be as serious as a reboot (someone accidentally turned the Switch off/unplugged the Switch), or less serious like a port status change. The Switch generates traps and sends them to the trap recipient (or network manager). Typical traps include trap messages for Authentication Failure, Topology Change, and Broadcast/Multicast Storm. SNMP Global Settings This window is used to display and configure the global SNMP and trap settings. To view the following window, click Management > SNMP > SNMP Global Settings, as shown below: Figure 4-3 SNMP Global Settings Window The fields that can be configured in SNMP Global Settings are described below: Parameter Description SNMP Global State Select this option to enable or disable the SNMP feature.

86 Voice VLAN Port This window is used to display and configure the voice VLAN interface settings. To view the following window, click L2 Features > VLAN > Voice VLAN > Voice VLAN Port, as shown below: Figure 5-31 Voice VLAN Port Window The fields that can be configured are described below: Parameter Description From Port - To Port Select the range of ports that will be used for this configuration here. State Select to enable or disable the voice VLAN feature on the specified port(s) here. When the voice VLAN is enabled for a port, the received voice packets will be forwarded in the voice VLAN. The received packets are determined as voice packets if the source MAC addresses of packets complies with the OUI addresses. Mode Select the mode here. Options to choose from are: • Auto Untagged - Specifies that voice VLAN untagged membership will be automatically learned. • Auto Tagged - Specifies that voice VLAN tagged membership will be automatically learned. • Manual - Specifies that voice VLAN membership will be manually configured. If auto-learning is enabled, the port will automatically be learned as a voice VLAN member. This membership will automatically be aged out. When the port is working in the auto-tagged mode and the port captures a voice device through the device's OUI, it will join the voice VLAN as a tagged member automatically. When the voice device sends tagged packets, the Switch will change its priority. When the voice device sends untagged packets, it will forward them in the Port VLAN ID (PVID). When the port is working in auto-untagged mode, and the port captures a voice device through the device's OUI, it will join the voice VLAN as an untagged member automatically. When the voice device sends tagged packets, the Switch will change its priority. When the voice device sends untagged packets, it will forward them in the voice VLAN. When the Switch receives LLDP-MED packets, it checks the VLAN ID, tagged flag, and priority flag. The Switch should follow the tagged flag and priority setting.

To view the following window, click L2 Features > VLAN > Voice VLAN > Voice VLAN LLDP-MED Device, as shown below: Figure 5-34 Voice VLAN LLDP-MED Device Window STP This Switch supports three versions of the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP): IEEE 802.1D-1998 STP, IEEE 802.1D-2004 Rapid STP, and IEEE 802.1Q-2005 MSTP. The IEEE 802.1D-1998 STP standard will be familiar to most networking professionals. However, as IEEE 802.1D-2004 RSTP and IEEE 802.1Q-2005 MSTP have been recently introduced to D-Link managed Ethernet Switches, a brief introduction to the technology is provided below followed by a description of how to set up IEEE 802.1D-1998 STP, IEEE 802.1D-2004 RSTP, and IEEE 802.1Q-2005 MSTP. 802.1Q-2005 MSTP The Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) is a standard defined by the IEEE community that allows multiple VLANs to be mapped to a single spanning tree instance, which will provide multiple pathways across the network. Therefore, these MSTP configurations will balance the traffic load, preventing wide scale disruptions when a single spanning tree instance fails. This will allow for faster convergences of new topologies for the failed instance. Frames designated for these VLANs will be processed quickly and completely throughout interconnected bridges utilizing any of the three spanning tree protocols (STP, RSTP, or MSTP). A Multiple Spanning Tree Instance (MSTI) ID will classify these instances. MSTP will connect multiple spanning trees with a Common and Internal Spanning Tree (CIST). The CIST will automatically determine each MSTP region, its maximum possible extent and will appear as one virtual bridge that runs a single spanning tree instance. Frames assigned to different VLANs will follow different data routes within administratively established regions on the network, continuing to allow simple and full processing of frames, regardless of administrative errors in defining VLANs and their respective spanning trees. Each Switch utilizing the MSTP on a network will share a single MSTP configuration that will have the following three attributes: • A configuration name defined by an alphanumeric string of up to 32 characters (defined in the MST Configuration Identification window in the Configuration Name field). • A configuration revision number (named here as a Revision Level and found in the MST Configuration Identification window) • A 4094-element table (defined here as a VID List in the MST Configuration Identification window), which will associate each of the possible 4094 VLANs supported by the Switch for a given instance. To utilize the MSTP function on the Switch, three steps need to be taken: • The Switch must be set to the MSTP setting (found in the STP Global Settings window in the STP Mode field). • The correct spanning tree priority for the MSTP instance must be entered (defined here as a Priority in the MSTP Port Information window when configuring MSTI ID settings). • VLANs that will be shared must be added to the MSTP Instance ID (defined here as a VID List in the MST Configuration Identification window when configuring an MSTI ID settings).

89 802.1D-2004 Rapid Spanning Tree The Switch implements three versions of the Spanning Tree Protocol, the Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP) as defined by IEEE 802.1Q-2005, the Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) as defined by IEEE 802.1D-2004 and a version compatible with IEEE 802.1D-1998. RSTP can operate with legacy equipment implementing IEEE 802.1D- 1998; however, the advantages of using RSTP will be lost. This section introduces some new Spanning Tree concepts and illustrates the main differences between the two protocols. Port Transition States An essential difference between the three protocols is in the way ports transition to a forwarding state and in the way, this transition relates to the role of the port (forwarding or not forwarding) in the topology. MSTP and RSTP combine the transition states Disabled, Blocking, and Listening used in 802.1D-1998 and creates a single state called Discarding. In either case, ports do not forward packets. In the STP port, transition states Disabled, Blocking or Listening or in the RSTP/MSTP port state Discarding, there is no functional difference, the port is not active in the network topology. Table 7-3 below compares how the three protocols differ regarding the port state transition. All three protocols calculate a stable topology in the same way. Every segment will have a single path to the root bridge. All bridges listen for BPDU packets. However, BPDU packets are sent more frequently, with every Hello packet. BPDU packets are sent even if a BPDU packet was not received. Therefore, each link between bridges is sensitive to the status of the link. Ultimately, this difference results in faster detection of failed links, and therefore faster topology adjustment. A drawback of IEEE 802.1D-1998 is this absence of immediate feedback from adjacent bridges. 802.1Q-2005 MSTP 802.1D-2004 RSTP 802.1D-1998 STP Forwarding Learning Disabled Disabled Disabled No No Discarding Discarding Blocking No No Discarding Discarding Listening No No Learning Learning Learning No Yes Forwarding Forwarding Forwarding Yes Yes RSTP is capable of a more rapid transition to the Forwarding state. RSTP no longer relies on timer configurations and RSTP-compliant bridges are sensitive to feedback from other RSTP-compliant bridge links. Ports do not need to wait for the topology to stabilize before transitioning to a Forwarding state. In order to allow this rapid transition, the protocol introduces two new variables: the Edge Port and the Point-to-Point (P2P) port. Edge Port A port can be configured as an Edge Port if it is directly connected to a segment where a loop cannot be created. An example would be a port connected directly to a single workstation. Ports that are designated as edge ports transition to a forwarding state immediately without going through the Listening and Learning states. An Edge Port loses its status if it receives a BPDU packet, after which it immediately becomes a normal spanning tree port. P2P Port A P2P port is also capable of rapid transition. P2P ports may be used to connect to other bridges. Under RSTP/MSTP, all ports operating in full-duplex mode are considered to be P2P ports unless manually overridden through configuration. 802.1D-1998/802.1D-2004/802.1Q-2005 Compatibility MSTP or RSTP can interoperate with legacy equipment and are capable of automatically adjusting BPDU packets to 802.1D-1998 format when necessary. However, any segment using 802.1D-1998 STP will not benefit from the rapid transition and rapid topology change detection of MSTP or RSTP. The protocol also includes a variable used for migration in the event that legacy equipment on a segment is updated to use RSTP or MSTP.

91 The fields that can be configured for STP Priority are described below: Parameter Description Priority Select the STP priority value here. This value is between 0 and 61440. By default, this value is 32768. The lower the value, the higher the priority. Click the Apply button to accept the changes made. The fields that can be configured for STP Configuration are described below: Parameter Description Bridge Max Age Enter the bridge Maximum Age value here. This value must be between 6 and 40 seconds. By default, this value is 20 seconds. The Maximum Age value may be set to ensure that old information does not endlessly circulate through redundant paths in the network, preventing the effective propagation of the new information. Set by the Root Bridge, this value will aid in determining that the Switch has spanning tree configuration values consistent with other devices on the bridged LAN. Bridge Hello Time After selecting RSTP/STP as the Spanning Tree Mode, this parameter will be available. Enter the bridge Hello Time value here. This value must be between 1 and 2 seconds. By default, this value is 2 seconds. This is the interval between two transmissions of BPDU packets sent by the Root Bridge to tell all other switches that it is indeed the Root Bridge. This field will only appear here when STP or RSTP is selected for the STP version. For MSTP, the Hello Time must be set on a port per-port basis. Bridge Forward Time Enter the bridge Forwarding Time value here. This value must be between 4 and 30 seconds. By default, this value is 15 seconds. Every port on the Switch spends this time in the Listening state while moving from the Blocking state to the Forwarding state. TX Hold Count Enter the Transmit Hold Count value here. This value must be between 1 and 10 times. By default, this value is 6 times. This value is used to set the maximum number of Hello packets transmitted per interval. Max Hops Enter the maximum number of hops that are allowed. This value must be between 6 and 40 hops. By default, this value is 20 hops. This value is used to set the number of hops between devices in a spanning tree region before the Bridge Protocol Data Unit (BPDU) packet sent by the Switch will be discarded. Each Switch on the hop count will reduce the hop count by one until the value reaches zero. The Switch will then discard the BDPU packet and the information held for the port will age out.
