Chapter 4: Function Description
This section presents the network concepts referred in switch function
description.
4.1 System Setting
System setting contains the following topics: displaying and configuring the
switch information, upgrading rmware, backing up and loading conguration,
rebooting and soft-resetting, conguring username and password.
4.1.1 System Information
The system information contains hardware version, software version, system
description, system name, system location, contact information and run time.
4.1.2 File Transfer
TL-SG2109WEB/TL-SL2210WEB/TL-SL2218WEB/TL-SL2428WEB/TL-
SL2452WEB Web-Smart Switch Family is equipped with the function of
conguration backup, conguration loading and system upgrading.
The configuration file and executive file are transferred in TFTP protocol.
TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) is dedicated to transferring les between
two network stations. It’s based on UDP protocol.
4.1.3 Reboot & Reset
The “Reset” indicates “Soft-reset” here. Soft-resetting restores the switch
conguration to default except the switch IP address.

4.1.4 User
The username and password can be modied in order to exclude illegal users.
4.2 Port Setting
4.2.1 Port Parameter
4.2.1.1 Duplex Mode
Ports have the duplex modes: 10M HD, 10M FD, 100M HD, 100M FD and
1000M FD (Giga port support).
The First part indicates the transmission rate and the second part indicates the
duplex mode.
HD: half-duplex, the port supports transmission between the device and
the client in only one direction at a time.
FD: full-duplex, the port supports transmission between the device and its
link partner in both directions simultaneously.
Switch support auto negotiation is a protocol between two link partners that
enables a port to advertise its transmission rate and duplex mode to its
