LABEL DESCRIPTION

Getting Started

General Setup

This link takes you to a screen where you can configure general identification information
about the switch.

Switch Setup

This link takes you to a screen where you can set up global switch parameters such as
VLAN type, MAC address learning, IGMP snooping, GARP, priority queues, STP,
broadcast storm control, LACP trunking and 802.1X authentication.

IP Setup

This link takes you to a screen where you can configure the IP address, subnet mask
(necessary for switch management) and DNS (domain name server).

Port Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can configure settings for individual switch ports.

Advanced Applications

Static Route Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can configure static routes. A static route
defines how the ES-3024 should forward traffic by configuring the TCP/IP parameters
manually.

VLAN Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can configure port-based or 802.1Q VLAN
(depending on what you configured in the Switch Setup menu).

Static MAC Forward

This link takes you to screens where you can configure static MAC addresses for a port.
These static MAC addresses do not age out.

Filter Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can filter traffic going from one port or ports to
another port or ports.

Mirror Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can copy traffic from one port or ports to another
port in order that you can examine the traffic from the first port without interference

Bandwidth Control
Setup

This link takes you to screens where you can cap the maximum bandwidth allowed from
specified source(s) to specified destination(s).

Trunk Setup

This link takes you to a screen where you can logically aggregate physical links to form
one logical, higher-bandwidth link.

Advanced Management

SNMP

This link takes you to a screen where you can configure SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) for network management and monitoring.

RADIUS

This link takes you to a screen where you can configure RADIUS (Remote Authentication
Dial-In User Service), a protocol for user authentication that allows you to use an external
server to validate an unlimited number of users.

Logins

This link takes you to a screen where you can change your password and configure
passwords for up to four administrators. Only one administrator can be active at any one
time.

Maintenance

This link takes you to screens where you can set UNIX syslog parameters, time and date
and remote management as well as perform firmware and configuration file maintenance.

Statistics

This link takes you to screens where you can view switch statistical information.

Diagnostic

This link takes you to screens where you can view system logs and test port(s).

Logout

Click here to exit the web configurator. You have to log in with your password again after
you log out. This is recommended after you finish a management session both for
security reasons and so as you don’t lock out other switch administrators.
