1.0 Introduction
TPE-80WS Web Smart PoE Switch is a high performance web-smart switch that provides up to 8
10/100/1000Mbps copper Ethernet ports, this device provides a great flexibility for nowadays
variety of network application but at lower cost. User doesn’t have to learn many sophisticated
management function which are usually shown in SNMP switch but just to learn some simple or
common control or setting function through either out-of-band RS232 port or Ethernet port,
however, some new, advanced and important function such as Tag-VLAN, Trunking, RSTP and
IGMP are also supported same as SNMP switch, this means, user doesn’t have to pay high cost
as tradition layer 2 SNMP switch does while he still can get advanced or common function to
meet requirement of general network application. This makes it very suitable for small or
medium size company to build up simple network at beginning phase with lower cost. Besides, a
optional long-ear accessory also makes it possible to operate in the rack mount environment.
Non-blocking and maximum wire speed performance are designed on all switched ports, it not
only supports auto-negotiation but also AUTO-MDIX function on all switched 8 10/100/1000M
RJ-45 Gigabit copper ports no matter running with half or full duplex mode, these function make
user easy to use and reduce the matching effort between straight and cross-over line issues.
TPE-80WS Web Smart PoE Switch supports both port-based and 802.1Q (tag-based) VLAN to
catch-up the application needed in incoming VLAN age. To increase bandwidth application, it
supports up to 4 trunk groups with maximum 8 ports on one Trunk, moreover, these trunk ports
are with fair-over function to provide redundant back-up when one or some of trunk ports
malfunction. Moreover, to reduced convergent time of STP protocol, Rapid STP (RSTP ) is
supported, to support multicast application IGMP is also supported. ,
Fully LED status display ease user’s installation, a reset button is also provided to make user
easy to go back to default setting.

RSTP status – to show RSTP status
IGMP status – to show IGMP status
Reset – to reboot the switch with/without writing default configurations
Ping – provide ping function and ping result
Maintenance
Warm Reboot – to restart system
Factory Default – to get parameter value back to factory default
Firm Upgrade – to upgrade code
Config File – to backup configuration data
Logout – to logout

2.1 Configurations
2.1.1.1 System information
The system diagram shows every common system information, they are H/W, F/W version,
MAC address, IP address, subnet mask, IP gateway, default VLAN value of management port,
name, password, timeout value, and SNMP communities…etc. Once user finish the setting, he
must press the “ Apply “ button to execute all his setting, and whenever he needs, he may press
the “ Refresh “ button to get updated status of system information.

2.1.1.2 DHCP
The default DHCP is off, so Default IP or user defined IP is used when this machine is
turning-ON, but if this switch needs an IP assigned from DHCP server, user may click the square
field and then press “ Apply “ to get an IP which will be assigned by DCHP server “. User must
be aware that if he enable DHCP from web page, and if the DHCP server is working, then after
enable DHCP, he will lose contact of web page, because the IP address has been changed.
2.1.1.3 relocate HTTP port number
The default port number of HTTP command is 80, but unauthorized user may intrude this
switch if he knows the IP of this switch, network manager may relocate this port number to other
value, from 1024 to 65535, the same idea as above, once network manager change the value of
HTTP’s port number, he will lost contact and he must regain web page by command modified as
below:
http://192.168.223.100:port_value
2.1.1.4 Tag VLAN management group ( CPU port )
At first time you turn on this device, all ports belong to default VLAN ID group (VID=1), so
they can communicate to each other, and hence any port can be used as web management port to
talk with CPU port inside, but, for example, assume user uses port 1 as web management port,
then user create VLAN ID=10 on port 7,8 and create another VLAN ID = 20 on port 5,6, now 3
VLAN groups will be shown on VALN group table after he press “ Apply “ button. If VLAN 10
and VLAN ID 20 must be isolated, then user must delete member port 5,6,7,8 in default VLAN
group( VID = 1 ). Be aware that CPU port is still remain on VID=1 group now, user can only
perform web management through one of 4 ports, that is port 1,2,3,4, but if user want to perform
web management from other port in existing different VLAN group, for example port 8 in VID
=10, then at this moment, he must go to system configuration page, and select Tag VLAN
Management Group to 10, then, press “ Apply “ command, then move RJ-45 ( web
management port ) from port 1 to port 8, then user can perform web management from new
RJ-45 port again. But if user forget what group that CPU belongs to, there are two ways to solve
this condition below.
(1) Through console port, change VLAN ID of CPU port if he gets password, or
(2) Press “Reset”button few seconds, let system return to default settings, that is,
---- >> IP address=192.168.223.100; … VID=1, all settings return to factory default

2.1.2 Ports
Port status page always shows current port status of all 8 ports. User can set link mode, enable or
disable flow control and jumbo frame, however, be noticed that the jumbo frame is global setting,
it can’t be set on individual port but on all ports at a time.A default diagram is shown below,

2.1.3 Port-based VLAN
Port-based VLAN is a kind of VLAN which is a group of ports marked as a kind by group ID,
different VLAN ( different ID ) can’t communicate to each other. Before the setting, user must
be aware of that there is a default Port-based VLAN, his group ID is 1, so, if user wants to set
another new port-based VLAN, better set another group ID rather than 1. After press “ Apply
“ button, the screen will show a new port-based VLAN if he add a new group or screen will
delete a port-based VLAN if he delete a group. The important thing is that port-based VLAN
is valid only within same device, it will never be valid cross the devices. A default diagram is
shown below.
