Hardware Description
This section mainly describes the hardware of the FSW-1671 Web Smart Switch and
gives a physical and functional overview on the certain switch
Physical Dimensions
The FSW-1671 Smart Switch physical dimensions is
440mm x 220mm x 44mm (WxDxH)
Front Panel
The front panel of the FSW-1671 Web Smart Switch consists of 16 x 10/100Base-TX
RJ-45 ports (Auto MDI/MDIX). The LED Indicators are also located on the front panel
of the switch.
 RJ-45 Ports (Auto MDI/MDIX): 16 x 10/100 N-way auto-sensing for 10Base-T or
100Base-TX connections. In general, MDI means connecting to another Hub
or Switch while MDIX means connecting to a workstation or PC. Therefore, Auto
MDI/MDIX would allow connecting to another Switch or workstation without
changing non-crossover or crossover cabling.
LED Indicators
The LED Indicators display real-time information of systematic operation status. The
following table provides descriptions of LED status and their meaning .

Rear Panel
The 3-pronged power plug is located at the rear panel of the FSW-1671 switch shown
as below. The switch will work with AC in the voltage range between 90V to 260V and
Frequency of 50-60Hz

5
Desktop Installation
Set the switch on a sufficiently large flat space with a power outlet nearby. The surface
where the user put the switch should be clean, smooth, level and sturdy. Make sure
there is enough clearance around the switch to allow attachment of cables, power cord
and allow air circulation.
Rack-mounted Installation
The FSW-1671 Web Smart Switch comes with a rack-mounted kit and can be mounted
in an EIAstandard size, 19-inch Rack. The switch can be placed in a wiring closet with
other equipment.
Perform the following steps to rack mount the switch:
A. Position one bracket to align with the holes on one side of the switch and
secure it with the smaller bracket screws. Then attach the remaining bracket
to the other side of the switch.
B. After having attached mounting brackets, position the FSW-1671 Web Smart
Switch in the rack by lining up the holes in the brackets with the appropriate
holes on the rack. Secure the switch to the rack with a screwdriver and the
rack-mounting screws.
[NOTE] For proper ventilation, it allows about at least 4 inches (10 cm) of
clearance on the front and 3.4 inches (8 cm) on the back of the Switch. This is
especially important for enclosed rack installation.
Power On
Connect the power cord to the power socket on the rear panel of the Switch. The other
side of power cord connects to the power outlet. The internal power supply of the Switch
works with voltage in the range of 90-260VAC and Frequency of 50~60Hz. Check the
power indicator on the front panel to see if power is properly supplied.

Web-Based Management
This section introduces the configuration and functions of the Web-Based management .
About Web-based Management
An embedded HTML web site resides in flash memory on the CPU board of the switch.
It offers advanced management features and allows users to manage the switch from
anywhere on the network through a standard browser such as Microsoft Internet
Explorer.
The Web-Based Management supports Internet Explorer 6.0. It is based on Java
Applets with an aim to reduce network bandwidth consumption, enhance access speed
and present an easy viewing screen.
The Web management only allows one person to log in at the same time. With the first
user logging, the system will force him to be logged out when the second user tries to
log in the system.

Port Management
Port Management includes Port Configuration, Port Mirroring , Bandwidth Control,
Broadcast Storm Control and PoE
Port configuration
In Port Configuration, you can set and view the operation mode for each port.
Auto-Negotiation: Enable and Disable. Being set as ‘Enable’, the Speed, Duplex
mode, Pause, Backpressure, TX Capability and Address Learning are
negotiated automatically. When you set it as ‘Disable’, you have to assign those
items manually.
Speed: When the Auto-Negotiation column is set as Disable, users have to set the
connection speed to the ports ticked.
Duplex: When the Auto-Negotiation column is set as Disable, users have to set the
connection mode in Half/Full to the ports ticked.
Pause: Flow Control for connection at speed of 10/100Mbps in Full-duplex mode.

15
Backpressure: Flow Control for connection at speed of 10/100Mbps in Half-duplex
mode.
TX Capability: When the Auto-Negotiation column is set as Disable, users have to
set this column as Enable or Disable.
Addr. Learning: When the Auto-Negotiation column is set as Disable, users have
to set this column as Enable or Disable.
Select Port No.: Tick the check boxes beside the port numbers being set.
Click Update to have the configuration take effect.
Current Status: Displays current port status.
Setting Status: Displays current.
Click
Update
to make the configuration effective.
Port mirroring
The Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched networks. That Traffic
through ports can be monitored by any of the ports means traffic goes in or out
monitored (source) ports will be duplicated into mirroring (destination) port.
 Dest Port: Tick the check boxes beneath the port number label to be the
destination (mirroring) port for monitoring Rx only, Tx only or both RX and TX traffic
which come from the source port. Users can connect the mirroring port to LAN
analyzer or Netxray.

16
 Monitored Pckets: Pull down the selection menu to choose what kind of packet is
to be monitored.
 Source Port: The ports that the user wants to monitor. All monitored port traffic will
be copied to mirroring (destination) port. Users can select multiple source ports
by ticking the check boxes beneath the port number label to be monitored.
And then, click
Update
to have the configuration take effect.
Take the following configuration as an example.
(a) Source port: Port 1 ~ Port 4.
(b) Destination Port: Port 9 ~Port 12.
(c) Mirrored packet: Rx.
This means all packets received at port 1 ~port 4 will be copied to port 9, port 10, port 11
and port 12.Care should be taken that the more source ports and destination ports is set,
the lower network throughput is available for normal traffic.
Bandwidth Control
This page allows the setting of the bandwidth for each port. The Tx rate and Rx rate can
be filled with the number ranging from 1 to 255. This number should be multiplied by the
