Descrpton

Allows you to describe an interface .

Flow Control

Click the checkbox to enable flow control .

Autonegotaton

Click the checkbox to enable

autonegotiation .

LAG Broadcast Control

You can protect your network

from broadcast storms by setting a threshold for broadcast
traffic for all LAGs . Any broadcast packets exceeding the
specified threshold will then be dropped .

Status

Click the checkbox to enable LAG Broadcast

Control .

Threshold

Set the threshold for the LAG, click apply .

Delete

To delete a LAG, click the Delete button .

Port Management > LACP

Ports can be statically grouped into an aggregate link
(that is, LAG) to increase the bandwidth of a network
connection or to ensure fault recovery . Or you can
use the Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) to
automatically negotiate a LAG link between the Switch
and another network device . For static LAGs, the switches
have to comply with the Cisco EtherChannel standard . For
dynamic LAGs, the switches have to comply with LACP .
This Switch supports up to four LAGs . For example, a
LAG consisting of two 1000 Mbps ports can support an
aggregate bandwidth of 4 Gbps when operating at full
duplex .

To avoid creating a loop in the network, be sure you enable
LACP before connecting the ports, and also disconnect
the ports before disabling LACP .

Port Management > LACP

Set Port Actor

This menu sets the local side of an

aggregate link; that is, the ports on this Switch .

Set the System Prorty, Port Prorty and LACP Tmeout
for the Port Actor

After you have completed setting the

port LACP parameters, click Save Settngs .

Global Setting

Power Allocaton (-180) watts

If a device is connected

to a Switch port and the Switch detects that it requires
more than the power budget of the port, no power is
supplied to the device (that is, port power remains off) .

If the power demand from devices connected to the
Switch ports exceeds the power budget set for the Switch,
the port power priority settings are used to control the
supplied power .

Mark the Enabled checkbox to enable PoE power on
selected ports, set the priority using the drop-down menu
provided and set the power allocation for each port .
