INSTALLATION
2.2 Electrical Installation
With a built-in AC power chassis, AC power is supplied to the chassis through a standard IEC C14 3-prong
receptacle, located on the rear of the chassis. Any detachable nationally approved power cord with IEC C13 line plug
may be used to connect AC power to the chassis unit. With a built-in DC power chassis, DC-48V is connected to the
terminal block located on the rear of the chassis, observing the proper polarity. The chassis should always be
grounded through the protective earth lead of the power cable in AC installations, or via the frame ground connection
for DC installations.

3.2.2 System Information
The system information screen will display the configuration information, the hardware MAC address and version, the
system time, the system "uptime" and the software version and build date.
3.2.3 System IP
Setup the IP configuration, interface and routes.
IP Configuration
Mode: The "Mode" pull-down configures whether the IP stack should act as a Host or a Router. In Host mode, IP
traffic between interfaces will not be routed. In Router mode traffic is routed between all interfaces. When
configuring this device for multiple VLANs, the Router mode should be chosen. Router mode is the default mode.
DNS Server: This setting controls the DNS name resolution done by the switch. The following modes are
supported:
From any DHCP interfaces: The first DNS server offered from a DHCP lease to a DHCP-enabled interface will be
used.
No DNS server: No DNS server will be used.
Configured: Explicitly provide the IP address of the DNS Server in dotted decimal notation.
From this DHCP interface: Specify from which DHCP-enabled interface a provided DNS server should be
preferred.

CHAPTER 3
WEB OPERATION & CONFIGURATION
DNS Proxy: When DNS proxy is enabled, the system will relay DNS requests to the currently configured DNS server,
and reply as a DNS resolver to the client devices on the network.
IP Interface
Click "Add Interface" to add a new IP interface. A maximum of 8 interfaces is supported.
VLAN: This is the VLAN associated with the IP interface. Only ports in this VLAN will be able to access the IP interface.
This field is only available for input when creating a new interface.
IPv4 DHCP: When this checkbox is enabled, the system will configure the IPv4 address and mask of the interface using
the DHCP protocol. The DHCP client will announce the configured System Name as hostname to provide DNS lookup.
Fallback: The number of seconds for trying to obtain a DHCP lease. After this period expires, a configured IPv4 address
will be used as IPv4 interface address. A value of zero disables fallback mechanism. The DHCP will keep retrying until a
valid lease is obtained when fallback is disabled. Valid value is from 0 to 4294967295.
IPv4 Address: The IPv4 address of the interface is entered in dotted decimal notation. If DHCP is enabled, this field is
not used. The field may also be left blank if IPv4 operation on the interface is not desired.
IPv4 Mask: The IPv4 network mask is entered by a number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are between 0 and 30
bits for a IPv4 address. If DHCP is enabled, this field is not used. The field may also be left blank if IPv4 operation on
the interface is not desired.
IPv4 Current Lease: For DHCP interfaces with an active lease, this column shows the current interface address, as
provided by the DHCP server.
IPv6 Address: A IPv6 address is a 128-bit record represented as eight fields of up to four hexadecimal digits with a
colon separating each field (:). For example, fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7. The symbol :: is a special syntax that can be
used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous zeros; but it can appear only once. It can
also represent a legally valid IPv4 address. For example, ::192.1.2.34. The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on
the interface is not desired.
IPv6 Mask: The IPv6 network mask is entered by a number of bits (prefix length). Valid values are between 1 and 128
bits for an IPv6 address. The field may be left blank if IPv6 operation on the interface is not desired.
IP Routes
Route Network: The IP route is the destination IP network or host address of this route. Valid format is dotted decimal
notation or a valid IPv6 notation. A default route can use the value 0.0.0.0 or for IPv6 use the :: notation.
Route Mask: The route mask is a destination IP network or host mask, in number of bits (prefix length). It defines how
much of a network address that must match, in order to qualify for this route. Valid values are between 0 and 32 bits
respectively 128 for IPv6 routes. Only a default route will have a mask length of 0 (as it will match anything).
Gateway: This is the IP address of the gateway. Valid format is dotted decimal notation or a valid IPv6 notation.
Gateway and Network must be of the same type.

3.2.5 System NTP
Setup the Network Time Protocol configuration, to synchronize the device’s clock to network time.
Mode: Configure the NTP mode operation. Possible modes are:
Enabled: Enable NTP client mode operation.
Disabled: Disable NTP client mode operation.
Server #: Enter the IPv4 or IPv6 address of an NTP server. IPv6 address is in 128-bit records represented as eight fields
of up to four hexadecimal digits with a colon separating each field (:). For example, 'fe80::215:c5ff:fe03:4dc7'. The
symbol '::' is a special syntax that can be used as a shorthand way of representing multiple 16-bit groups of contiguous
zeros; but it can appear only once. NTP servers can also be represented by a legally valid IPv4 address. For example,

3.2.7 System Log Configuration
Configure System Log on this page.
Server Mode: This sets the server mode operation. When the mode of operation is enabled, the syslog message will
send out to syslog server (at the server address). The syslog protocol is based on UDP communication and received on
UDP port 514. Syslog server will not send acknowledgments back to the sender since UDP is a connectionless protocol
and it does not provide acknowledgments. The syslog packet will always send out, even if the syslog server does not
exist. When the mode of operation is disabled, no syslog packets are sent out.
Server Address: This sets the IPv4 host address of syslog server. If the switch provides DNS feature, it also can be a
host name.
Syslog Level: This sets what kind of messages will send to syslog server. Possible levels are:
Info: Send information, warnings and errors.
Warning: Send warnings and errors.
Error: Send errors only.
