5.2 Network Information
This menu is mainly for network interface and port status.
It will show local system information, include MAC, IP, gateway, subnet mask address, software version number
and device description. User could enable/disable remote device control ability. If enable remote device control
ability, we could configure remote device and see remote device’s information. If both this device and remote
device enable TS1000 function, this device is in center mode and Remote device is in terminal mode, this page
will show remote device’s information, include MAC, IP and software version.
Note: We could only enable one device’s remote control ability. If both two devices enable this function, either
device can not control the other one.
5.3 Local Setting
This menu contains local device’s configuration.
5.4 IP Configuration
The OAM Media Converter embeds a DHCP client. We could enable/disable this function through the page.
If we disable DHCP, we should set the IP, gateway, subnet mask by self, and otherwise, these could not be set. They

9
will be provided by DHCP server. If the DHCP client is enabled, the IP address is provided by DHCP server, so user
should make sure there is a DHCP server in the net before you enable this function.
5.5 Password Setting
In this page, we could change the password. The password must be ‘a’-‘z’, ‘A’-‘Z’, ‘0’-‘9’ and ‘_’.
The max length is 16 characters. In this web, we do not support user purview configuration, and only support one
user name setting. We can't not change user name in the web.
5.6 Converter Configuration
Jumbo Frame (9K): If enable this function, the media converter could pass the max 9KB packet.
Link Transparent: Only if link transparent is enabled, the Remote Fault Detect and Link Loss Carry Forward will take
effect.
Remote Fault Detect: If enable this function, when fiber port enable TS-1000 and receive OAM pkt.
The OAM Media Converter will set local UTP port link up or link down according to remote device’s UTP port link
Status: This function need enable link transparent first.
Link Loss Carry Forward: If enable this function, when the UTP port link down, the fiber port will be forced link down.
And the fiber will be resuming when UTP port link up. This function need enable link transparent first.
Forward CRC Error Frame: If enable this function, the CRC error packet will be pass, otherwise, the CRC error

10
packets will be dropped.
Forward Pause Frame: If enable this function, The OAM Media Converter will forward pause frame and regard it as
a normal packet.
Management Packet High Priority: If enable this function, The OAM Media Converter will enable QOS.
We enable four queues, and set queue 3 as strict priority. All management packets, such as 802.3ah OAM,
SNMP packets will be in queue 3 to guarantee bandwidth.
Broadcast Storm Filter, Multicast Storm Filter, and Unknown DAunicast Storm Filter: If enable this function, when too
many broadcast/multicast/unknown DA unicast packets arrive in a period time, the packets will be dropped.
5.7 Port Configuration
This page could set local device’s port status, including work mode, flow control ability, ingress and egress rate limit.
There are some predefined rate settings. If user needs some special usage, you could input the rate by self. Because
the rate limit is 64kbps as a minimal step, the input rate should be divided exactly by 64. If the value input is not
divided exactly by 64, for example 65, the program will be change the rate to 64 automatically.
5.8 MIB Counter
The page shows local device’s MIB counters. If click the “clear” button, all MIB counters will be clear to zero. Click the

11
“refresh” button, show the current MIB counters again.
5.9 SNMP Configuration

SNMP Ability: Enable or Disable SNMP functions.
Trap Mode: If enable, SNMP could send trap event to SNMP server.
SNMPTrap IPAddress: SNMP Server’s IP address, used for trap destination IP.
5.10 VLAN
5.10.1 VLAN Group
If enable VLAN functions, user could set 16 VLAN entries. Each VLAN entry could set VID and member port. The
VID should be 1~4094.

12
5.10.2 VLAN per Port Setting
In this page, we could set each port’s PVID and egress tag behavior.
Egress Link Type:
Replace Tag: The switch will remove VLAN tags from packets then add new tags to them.
The inserted tag is the ingress port’s “Default tag”, which is indexed by port “Port based VLAN index”. This is a
replacement processing for tagged packets and an insertion for untagged packets.
Remove Tag: The switch will remove VLAN tags from packets, if they are tagged when these packets are output.
The switch will not modify packets received without tags.
Add Tag: The switch will add VLAN tags to packets, if they are not tagged when these packets are output on this port.
The switch will not add tags to packets already tagged. The inserted tag is the ingress port’s “Default tag”, which is
indexed by port’s “Port based VLAN index”.
Don’t Tough Tag: Do not insert or remove VLAN tags to/from packet which is output on this port.
Port VLAN Entry: Select Port based VLAN index. The number means VLAN table entry index, not VID.
Ingress Filter: enable or disable VLAN ingress filter.
5.11 Q-in-Q
This page could configure Q in Q function.
Out Layer VLAN Tag: User defined Q-in-Q out layer VLAN tag Ether type.

13
Out Layer VLAN VID: User defined Q-in-Q out layer VLAN tag VID

Chapter 6 OAM (IEEE802.3ah) function
6.1 Overview
FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 supports four kinds of standard OAM functions: Discovery of OAM, MIB
variable response, OAM loopback, Dying Gasp alarm
6.2 Discovery of OAM
When FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 is connected with the initiative device that can support 803.3ah, FVM-1101
/ FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 will wait for OAM initiative device to initiate OAM discovery Process. After OAM is
discovered, other OAM functions can be realized.
6.3 MIB Variable response
FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 supports MIB variable response processed by switch chips, which is a
subset of standard MIB. FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 responses only to requests of the initiative device, if
the requesting object is MIB information that FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 doesn’t have, MIB variable
response will return a null instruction.
6.4 OAM Loopback
FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 supports Loopback initiated by OAM initiative device. During the process of
loopback, the Ethernet port operation of FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 will be disconnected. And after the
loopback, it will be reconnected.
6.5 Dying Gasp alarm
When FVM-1101 / FVM-1220 / FVM-1000 is power down, Dying Gasp alarm will be sent to OAM initiative
device.
