Chapter 1 About the Switch Blade
1.1 Overview
The following describes the overview of the Switch Blade.
PRIMERGY BX600 Blade Server
A high performance Giga-bit Ethernet Switch Blade used for network connection is installed in
PRIMERGY BX600. This Switch Blade, which is equipped with 10 full-duplex Giga-bit ports used for
server blade connection, enables high-speed access to server resources. The Switch Blade is also
equipped with 3 full-duplex Giga-bit ports that are used for uplink to network backbone or connection to
other server farms.
PRIMERGY BX600 Switch Blade
This Switch Blade uses high-speed switching fabric. This design allows for simultaneous transport with
low latency of multiple packets for all ports. It also adopts store-and-forward switching to ensure
maximum data integrity. In this mode, the entire packet must be received into a port buffer and checked
for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from spreading throughout the network.
A management agent is installed in the Switch Blade, and can be accessed using the console redirection
function of the Management Blade.
The Switch Blade can also be managed using Web browser, SNMP/RMON software, or Telnet.

The RJ-45 uplink ports support IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation of speed, duplex mode, and flow control.
Each port operates with data transmission rates of 10Mbps/100Mbps/1000Mbps, full-duplex/half-
duplex mode, and can avoid buffer overflow by controlling data stream. These external ports can be
connected to IEEE802.3ab 1000BASE-T compliant devices within a range of 100m using a category 5e
twisted pair cable. Since these ports have an automatic MDI/MDI-X switching function, a straight cable
can be used for every connection (Auto-negotiation must be enabled when using an MDI/MDI-X
switching function).
When using auto-negotiation function for this switch, data transmission rate, transmission mode, and
flow control will be set automatically also for the connected device if this function is supported by the
device. If the function is not supported, every connection must be set manually.

1.3 Network Management
An embedded network management agent is installed in the Switch Blade. For this
agent, various management options, such as SNMP, RMON, and Web-based
interfaces, are available. A PC can be connected to the Switch Blade in order to
configure and monitor the Switch Blade.
The network management agent provides a wide range of high performance expansion functions as
follows.
• The multicast filtering function supports real-time network applications.
• Port-based and tagged VLAN provide traffic security and efficient use of the network bandwidth.
• The QoS priority queueing ensures the minimum delay for moving real-time multi-media data across
the network.
• The flow control function protects packets from losses that may be caused by a bottleneck due to port
saturation.
• The broadcast storm suppression function protects the network from broadcast traffic storms. This section briefly explains some management functions.
IEEE 802.1D compliant bridge
The Switch Blade supports IEEE 802.1D transparent bridging. It refers to learned addresses data in an
address table, and according to the information, performs filtering or forwarding of traffic to facilitate
data switching. Up to 32,000 addresses can be registered in the address table.
Store-and-Forward switching
The Switch Blade copies each frame to the memory, and then transmits the frame to another port. This
makes every frame the standard Ethernet size. In addition, data integrity checks are performed reliably
using a cyclical redundancy check.
This function prevents an invalid frame from entering the network, and avoids wasted bandwidth.
To avoid frame losses in a port where access is congested, This buffer can keep packets in a queue and
hold data transmission, when network access is congested.
Spanning tree protocol
The Switch Blade supports IEEE 802.1D spanning tree protocol. This protocol improves fault tolerance,
enabling configuration of redundant connections consisting of two or more routes between a pair of
LAN segments. If there are multiple physical paths between segments, this protocol selects one path and
disables the other paths. Therefore, there will be only one path between two stations on the network.
This prevents the creation of network loops. However, if the selected path fails for some reason, an
alternative path is activated so that the connection is maintained.

Chapter 1 About the Switch Blade
Virtual LAN (VLAN)
Using the Switch Blade, up to 32 VLANs can be configured. Virtual LAN is a group of network nodes
sharing the same collision domain regardless of physical node locations and connection points. The
Switch Blade supports IEEE 802.1Q compliant tagged VLAN. A port can be manually assigned to a
specific set of VLANs. As a result, the switch can restrict the traffic transmitted to a VLAN group to
which a user has been assigned. The following will be possible by segmenting the network into VLANs.
• Avoiding broadcast storms that cause significant performance deterioration.
• Making network management easy when changing or moving nodes, by setting remotely VLAN
membership for any port, not by manually changing node IP addresses.
• Providing data security by restricting all traffic to the originating VLAN (except when a connection
between different VLANs is established using a router or layer 3 switch).
Port mirroring
The Switch Blade can copy traffic from any port to the monitor port. In addition, the traffic can be
analyzed and connection integrity can be checked, by connecting a protocol analyzer or RMON probe to
the monitor port.
Port trunking
An aggregate connection can be configured by combining external ports 11 and 12. The second port
increases the whole connection throughput dramatically, and if an error occurs at one port in the trunk,
redundancy is provided by the other port taking over the load. The Switch Blade supports one trunk that
includes two uplink ports.
Broadcast suppression
This controls broadcast traffic so that it does not damage network traffic. When this function is enabled
at a port, the level of broadcast traffic passing the port is restricted. If the broadcast traffic exceeds the
threshold level set in advance, the traffic will be reduced to under the threshold level.
Flow control
This lightens the traffic when accesses are congested, and avoids packet loss caused by port buffer
overflow. The Switch Blade supports IEEE 802.3x compliant flow control. Flow control of all ports is
disabled by default.
Traffic priority
Quality of Service (QoS) is realized by prioritizing each packet according to the required service level,
using four priority queues that adopt weighted round robin queuing. For prioritizing the receiving traffic,
IEEE 802.1p tag and 802.1Q tag are used according to the input from end-station application. Using
these functions, it is possible to prioritize the delay-sensitive data and the best-effort data separately.
Multicast switching
Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to ensure that it does not interfere with
normal network traffic and to guarantee real-time delivery by setting the required priority level for the
designated VLAN. The Switch Blade manages multicast group registration, using IGMP snooping and
IGMP.

2.2 1000BASE-T Device Connection
The Switch Blade data ports support the following functions.
• Data transmission rates of 10Mbps/100Mbps/1000Mbps
• Operation in full-duplex/half-duplex mode
• Auto-negotiation function of transmission rate, duplex mode, and flow control
Each external data port of the Switch Blade can be connected to any server or
workstation, and the ports can uplink to network devices such as other switches and
routers. According to the 1000BASE-T standard, 4 pairs of category 5e twisted pair
cables are used, for maximum 100m connection.
First, check whether IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T compliant cables are connected when using
1000Mbps operation. For details, refer to "2.3 1000BASE-T Cable Requirements" (pg.26).
1 Prepare devices to be used in the network.
Check whether 1000BASE-T network interface cards are installed in servers and workstations
when using 1000Mbps operation. In the other network devices, IEEE 802.3ab 1000BASE-T
compliant RJ-45 ports must be installed.
2 Prepare shielded or non-shielded twisted pair cables (straight cables or cross
cables) with RJ-45 plugs at both ends.
For 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet connection, 100-ohm category 5e cables are used.
3 Connect one end of the cable to other device's RJ-45 port, and the other end to
an available port of the Switch Blade.
To connect the RJ-45 plug, click it into place so that the tab of the plug is fixed correctly.
For 1000Mbps operation, all wires of 4 pairs of cables must be connected. When the auto-negotiation function is enabled, the automatic MDI/MDI-X function is supported at the
1000BASE-T ports. As a result, regardless of the data transmission rate (10/100/1000Mbps) or type of
cable (straight or cross), the Switch Blade can be connected to servers, workstations, or other network
devices. Do not use a twisted pair cable longer than 100m (328 feet). (The auto-negotiation function must be enabled to support the automatic MDI/MDI-X function).
• Do not try to insert a modular jack connector into RJ-45 port. Doing so may cause damage to
the switch. Be sure to use twisted pair cables with RJ-45 connector compliant with FCC
standards.

Chapter 2 Configuring the Network
2.3 1000BASE-T Cable Requirements
Category 5 UTP cables for 100BASE-TX may be used for 1000BASE-T if all wires of
4 pairs are connected. However, when newly wiring cables, use category 5e
(enhanced category 5) cables. The category 5e cable standards include the test parameters that were merely
recommended values in category 5. Therefore, before using existing category 5
cables for 1000BASE-T, it is required to perform a brief cable wiring test so that the
cables are verified to be compatible to IEEE 802.3ab standards.
2.3.1 Test for Existing Category 5 Cable
Installed Category 5 cabling must pass tests for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End
Crosstalk (FEXT). This cable testing information is specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-67 standard.
Additionally, cables must also pass test parameters for Return Loss and Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk
(ELFEXT). These tests are specified in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-TSB-95 Bulletin, "The Additional
Transmission Performance Guidelines for 100 Ohm 4-Pair Category 5 Cabling".

2.4 1000BASE-T Pin Assignments
1000BASE-T ports support automatic MDI/MDI-X switching operation, so you can
use straight cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches
(Auto-negotiation must be enabled when using an MDI/MDI-X switching function).
The table below shows the 1000BASE-T MDI and MDI-X port pin assignments. These ports require
that all four pairs of wires be connected. Note that for 1000BASE-T operation, all four pairs of wires are
used for both transmit and receive ports.
Use 100-ohm Category 5e unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) cable for 1000BASE-T connections. Also be
sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).

3.1 About Web UI
In the Switch Blade, an embedded HTTP Web server is installed. Using a Web
browser, you can set up the switch and view statistics on the Web browser to monitor
network activity. The Web server can be accessed by any computer on the network
using a standard Web browser (Internet Explorer 5.0 or above, or Netscape
Navigator 6.1 or above).
The Switch Blade can be managed by the command line interface (CLI) using the console redirection
function of Management Blade or Telnet. For CLI usage details, refer to "Chapter 4 Command
Reference" (pg.99).
Before accessing the Switch Blade from a Web browser, be sure you have performed the following
settings:
1 Set a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway in the Switch Blade,
using the console redirection function of Management Blade.
"1.7 Initial Setup" (pg.21)
If the path between the management station and this switch does not pass through any device that
uses the Spanning Tree Algorithm, then you can set the switch port attached to the management
station to "Fast Forwarding" to improve the switch's response time to management commands issued
through the Web UI (" bridge-group portfast" (pg.171)).
Web UI may not be initialized and may not be accessed, if opening the Switch Blade CLI using the
console redirection function of Management Blade in the time between turning on the main power
switch of the chassis and completing Switch Blade startup. In this case, end the console redirection
and access the Web UI again.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
3.2.3 Setting the IP Address
The switch does not have a default IP address. The user needs to manually set a new IP address as
necessary. You may also need to establish a default gateway between this Switch Blade and management
stations that exist on another network segment.
The switch does not have a default IP address.
IP address is assigned to only one VLAN (Management VLAN).
You can manually configure a specific IP address, or direct the device to obtain an IP address from a
BOOTP or DHCP server. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by
periods. Anything outside this format will not be accepted by the CLI program.
Command attributes
The following describes the commands and their attributes for setting the IP address.
Command Attribute
Management VLAN This is the only VLAN through which you can gain management access to
the switch.
By default, all ports on the switch are members of VLAN 1, so a
management station can be connected to any port on the switch. However, if
other VLANs are configured and you change the Management VLAN, you
may loose management access to the switch. In this case, you should
reconnect the management station to a port that is a member of the
Management VLAN.
IP Address Mode Specifies whether IP functionality is enabled via manual configuration
(Static), Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP), or Boot Protocol
(BOOTP).
If DHCP or BOOTP is enabled, IP will not function until a reply has been
received from the server. Requests for an IP address will be broadcast
periodically by the switch. (Using DHCP or BOOTP, values of the IP
address, default gateway, and subnet mask can be set.)
IP Address IP address of the VLAN interface that is allowed management access.
Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to 255, separated by
periods.
Subnet Mask This mask identifies the host address bits used for routing to specific
subnets.
Gateway IP Address IP address of the gateway router between the Switch Blade and management
stations that exist on other network segments.
MAC Address MAC address of the Switch Blade

Updating DCHP
DHCP may lease addresses to clients indefinitely or for a specific period of time. If the address expires
or the switch is moved to another network segment, you will loose management access to the switch. In
this case, you can reboot the switch or submit a client request to restart DHCP service.
Web UI
If the address assigned by DHCP does not work, you cannot update the IP setting from the Web UI.
When the current address is enabled, you can re-open only the DHCP service from the Web UI.

3.3 Configuring SNMP
An onboard agent is installed in the switch.
The onboard agent continuously monitors the status of switch hardware, as well as
the traffic passing through its ports, based on the Simple Network Management
Protocol (SNMP).
Access rights to the onboard agent are controlled by community strings. To communicate with the
switch, the management station must first submit a valid community string for authentication. The
options for configuring community strings and related trap functions are described in the following
sections.
3.3.1 Setting Community Access Strings
You may configure up to five community strings authorized for management access.
For security reasons, it is recommended to remove the default community string.
Command attributes
The following describes the commands and their attributes for setting the community access strings.
Web UI
1 Click [SNMP].
2 Enter a community string in the "Community String" box and select the access
rights from the "Access Mode" drop-down list.
3 Click [Add].
Command Attribute
Community String A community string acts like a password and permits access to the SNMP
protocol. (Max. 32 characters)
Access Mode Read-Only: Specifies read-only access rights. Authorized management
stations are only able to refer to MIB objects.
Read/Write: Specifies read-write access rights. Authorized management
stations are able to both refer to and modify MIB objects.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
CLI
The following example adds the string "batman" as a community string, and provides read/write access
rights.
3.3.2 Specifying Trap Managers
You can specify up to five management stations that will receive authentication failure messages and
other trap messages from the switch.
Command Usage
• You can enable or disable authentication messages via the Web UI.
• You can enable or disable authentication messages, link-up-down messages, or all notification types
via the CLI.

3.4 Setting the Logon Password
Guest account merely has read-only rights for most parameters. Administrator
account has the rights to overwrite parameters for setting the Switch Blade.
Therefore, it is necessary to assign a password to the administrator account as soon
as possible, and store the password to a safe place (if the password was lost for
some reason, you can reload the runtime code and restore the default password).
The default guest account is "guest", and its password is also "guest". The default administrator
account is "admin", and its password is also "admin".
User name can be assigned only when setting by CLI.
Web UI
1 Click [Security].
2 Enter the current password in "Old Password" and a new password in "New
Password".
3 To confirm the new password, enter the new password of Step 2 again in
"Confirm Password".

3.5 Using Jumbo Frames
This switch increases throughput for transmitting large sequential data, by supporting
up to 9000bytes jumbo frame.
When using a jumbo frame, you can significantly decrease overhead per packet
needed for capsulating data with the protocol, compared with using a standard
Ethernet frame that can transmit 1518bytes or less.
In order to use jumbo frames, the end-nodes (computers/servers) of both source and destination must
support this function. In addition, when the network connection is full-duplex mode, all the switches
between the two end-nodes must be able to handle the extended frame size data. Moreover, when the
network is half-duplex mode, all devices within the collision domain must support jumbo frame.
When jumbo frame is enabled, the maximum threshold value for controlling broadcast storm is limited
to 64 packets/sec. "3.13.3 Setting Broadcast Storm Thresholds" (pg.92)
Web UI
1 Click [Jumbo Frame].
2 Select "Enabled" from the drop down box, and then click [Apply].
CLI
Enter the "Jumbo Frame" command to allow jumbo frames to be transmitted via the switches.

3.7 Address Table Settings
Switches store the addresses for all known devices. This information is used to route
traffic directly between the inbound and outbound ports. All the addresses learned by
monitoring traffic are stored in the dynamic address table.
You can also manually configure static addresses that are bound to a specific port.
3.7.1 Displaying the Address Table
The Dynamic Address Table contains the MAC addresses learned by monitoring the source address for
traffic entering the switch. When the destination address for inbound traffic is found in the database, the
packets intended for that address are forwarded directly to the associated port. Otherwise, the traffic is
broadcast to all ports.
Command Usage
• You can display entries in the dynamic address table by selecting an interface (either port or trunk),
MAC address, or VLAN.
• You can sort the information displayed based on interface (port or trunk), MAC address, or VLAN.
Web UI
1 Click [Address Table], and then [Dynamic Addresses]

3.8 Spanning Tree Protocol Configuration
The Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) is used to detect and disable network loops, and
to provide backup links between switches, bridges, or routers. This allows the switch
to interact with other bridging devices (that is, an STA-compliant switch, bridge, or
router) in the network. As a result, only one route exists between any two stations on
the network, and backup links automatically take over when a primary link goes
down.
3.8.1 Configuring Global Settings
Global settings apply to the entire switch.
Command attributes
The following global attributes can be changed:
Command Attribute
Spanning Tree State Enables/disables this switch to participate in a STA-compliant network.
Priority Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated
port. The device with the highest priority (i.e. the lowest priority value)
becomes the STA root device.
However, if all devices have the same priority, the device with the smallest
MAC address will then become the root device.
• Default: 32768
• Range: 0–65535
Hello Time Interval (in seconds) at which the root device transmits a configuration
message.
• Default: 2
• Minimum: 1
• Maximum: The lower of 10 or [(Max. Message Age / 2) -1]
Maximum Age The maximum time (in seconds) a device can wait without receiving a
configuration message before attempting to reconfigure.
All device ports (except for designated ports) should receive configuration
messages at regular intervals (provided in the last configuration message).
Any port that ages out STA information becomes the designated port for the
attached LAN. If it is a root port, a new root port is selected from among the
device ports attached to the network. (References to "ports" in this section
mean "interfaces", which include both ports and trunks).
• Default: 20
• Minimum: The higher of 6 or [2 × (Hello Time + 1)].
• Maximum: The lower of 40 or [2 × (Forward Delay - 1)]

Web UI
1 Click [STA], and then [STA Information].
Forward Delay The maximum time (in seconds) the root device will wait before changing
states (i.e., listening to learning to forwarding).
This delay is required because every device must receive information about
topology changes before it starts to forward frames. In addition, each port
needs time to receive conflicting information that would make it return to a
blocking state. Otherwise, temporary data loops might result.
• Default: 15
• Minimum: The higher of 4 or [(Max. Message Age / 2) + 1]
• Maximum: 30
Command Attribute
Bridge ID The priority and MAC address of this device.
Designated Root The priority and MAC address of the device in the Spanning Tree that this
switch has accepted as the root device.
Root Port The number of the port that has the lowest path cost to the root on this
Switch Blade.
This Switch Blade communicates with the root device through this port. If
there is no root port, then this Switch Blade has been accepted as the root
device of the Spanning Tree network.
Root Path Cost The path cost from the root port on this switch to the root device.
Configuration Changes The number of times the Spanning Tree has been reconfigured.
Last Topology Change The elapsed time since the Spanning Tree was last reconfigured.

Priority Defines the priority used for this port in the Spanning Tree Protocol. If the
path cost for all ports on a switch is the same, the port with the highest
priority (i.e. lowest value) will be configured as an active link in the
Spanning Tree. This makes a port with higher priority less likely to be
blocked if the Spanning Tree Protocol detects network loops. Where more
than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port with the lowest port
number will be enabled.
• Default: 128
• Range: 0–255
Path Cost This parameter is used by the STP to determine the best path between
devices. Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports attached to
faster media, and higher values assigned to ports with slower media. (Path
cost takes precedence over port priority.)
• Possible setting range: 1 - 65535
• Recommended setting range:
• Ethernet: 50–600
• Fast Ethernet: 10–60
• Giga-bit Ethernet: 3–10
• Default:
• Ethernet: half duplex: 100; full duplex: 95; trunk: 90
• Fast Ethernet: half duplex: 19; full duplex: 18; trunk: 15
• Giga-bit Ethernet: full duplex: 4; trunk: 3
Fast Forwarding Since end-nodes cannot cause forwarding loops, they can pass directly
through to the Forwarding state. Fast Forwarding can achieve quicker
convergence for end-node workstations and servers, and also overcome other
STA related timeout problems. (Remember that Fast Forwarding should only
be enabled for ports connected to an end-node device.) Set "Enable" for ports
1 - 10.
• Default:
• Ports 1 -10: Enable (Fixed parameter)
• Ports 11 -13: Disable

It starts sending configuration messages, but it does not start forwarding
packets yet.
• Learning: The port did not receive conflicting information, and sent
configuration messages at the interval specified by the Forward Delay
parameter. The port address table is cleared and the port starts learning
addresses.
• Forwarding: The port forwards packets and continues learning addresses.
• Broken: The port is broken or the link has not been established.
Forward Transitions Shows the number of times that the port changed from the "Learning" state to the
"Forwarding" state.
Designated Cost The cost for sending packets from this port to the root bridge in the current
Spanning Tree settings. The slower the media is, the higher the cost.
Designated Bridge Shows the MAC address and priority of the device to which this port must
communicate in order to reach the root bridge in the Spanning Tree.
Designated Port Shows the port number and priority of the specified bridge device which this

3.10Class of Service Configuration
Class of Service (CoS) allows you to specify which data packets have priority when
traffic is buffered in the switch due to access congestion. This switch supports CoS
with four priority queues for each port. Data packets in a port's high-priority queue will
be transmitted before those in the lower-priority queues.
You can set the default priority for each interface, and configure the mapping of frame
priority tags to the switch's priority queues.
3.10.1 Setting the Default Priority for Interfaces
You can specify the default priority for each interface on the switch.
All untagged packets entering the switch are tagged with the specified default port priority, and then
sorted into the appropriate priority queue at the output port.
Command Usage
• This switch provides four priority queues for each port.
• These priority queues use a weighted round robin algorithm to prevent head-of-queue blockage.
• The default priority applies if the incoming frame is an untagged frame received from a VLAN trunk
or a static-access port. This priority does not apply to IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged frames. If the
incoming frame is an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged frame, the IEEE 802.1p user priority bits will be
used.
• If the output port is an untagged member of the associated VLAN, these frames are stripped of all
VLAN tags before transmission.

3.11VLAN Configuration
In conventional networks with routers, broadcast traffic is split up into separate
domains. However, in principle switches cannot divide a broadcast domain. This can
lead to broadcast storms in large networks that handle traffic such as IPX or NetBeui.
By using IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs with this switch, you can organize any group of network
nodes into separate broadcast domains, thus confining broadcast traffic to the originating group.
This also provides a more secure and simpler network environment with lower broadcast traffic.
An IEEE 802.1Q VLAN is a group of ports that can be located anywhere in the network, but
communicate as though they belong to the same physical segment.
VLANs help to simplify network management by allowing you to move devices to a new VLAN
without having to change any physical connections. VLANs can be easily organized to reflect the
requirements of departmental groups (such as Marketing or R&D), usage groups (such as e-mail), or
multicast groups (used for multimedia applications such as videoconferencing).
VLANs provide greater network efficiency by reducing broadcast traffic, and allow you to make
network changes without having to update IP addresses or IP subnets. VLANs provide a high level of
network security since traffic must pass through a configured Layer 3 link to reach a different VLAN.
This switch supports the following VLAN features:
• Up to 32 VLANs based on the IEEE 802.1Q standard
• Port overlapping, allowing a port to participate in multiple VLANs
• End stations can belong to multiple VLANs
• Passing traffic between VLAN-aware and VLAN-unaware devices
• Priority tagging
When using the VLAN function of the Switch Blade to split the network into 2 or more, a server blade
cannot be installed to server blade slot 5 in the chassis. The maximum number of server blades that
can be installed is 9.
The Spanning Tree function of this switch works regardless of the VLAN configuration. Therefore, if
network loops are configured, all ports except for one port are disabled, even if they belong to
different VLANs, so the VLANs to which the disabled ports belong may not be able to communicate.
When using VLAN and configuring network loops, disable Spanning Tree.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
Assigning Ports to VLANs
Before enabling VLANs for the switch, you must first assign each port to the VLAN group(s) in which it
will participate. By default, all ports are assigned to VLAN 1 as untagged ports.
Add a port as a tagged port (that is, a port connected to a VLAN-aware device) if you want it to carry
traffic for one or more VLANs, and if the device at the other end of the link also supports VLANs. Then
assign the port at the other end of the link to the same VLAN(s). However, if you want a port on this
switch to participate in one or more VLANs, but the device at the other end of the link does not support
VLANs, then you must add this port as an untagged port (that is, a port connected to a VLAN-unaware
device).
VLAN Classification
When the switch receives a frame, it classifies the frame in one of the following two ways.
• If the frame is untagged, the switch assigns VLAN ID to the frame based on the PVID of the
receiving port.
• If the frame is tagged, the switch uses the tagged VLAN ID to identify the port broadcast domain of
the frame.
Port Overlapping
Port overlapping can be used to allow access to commonly shared network resources among different
VLAN groups, such as file servers or printers. If you implement VLANs which do not overlap, and need
to communicate, you can connect them by using a Layer-3 router or switch.
Port-based VLANs
Port-based (or static) VLANs are manually assigned to specific ports. The switch's forwarding decision
is based on the destination MAC address and its associated port. Therefore, to make valid forwarding or
flooding decisions, the switch must learn the relationship of the MAC address to its related port (and
thus to the VLAN) at run-time.
Forwarding Tagged/Untagged Frames
If you want to create a small port-based VLAN for devices attached directly to a single switch, you can
assign ports to the same untagged VLAN. However, to participate in a VLAN group that crosses several
switches, you need to create a VLAN for that group and enable tagging on all ports.
Multiple tagged or untagged VLANs can be assigned to ports. Therefore, each port on the switch is
capable of passing tagged or untagged frames. To forward a frame from the switch (i.e. VLAN-aware
device) to a VLAN-unaware device, the switch first decides where to forward the frame, and then inserts
the VLAN tag which indicates the default VID of this port.

3.11.6 Configuring VLAN Behavior for Interfaces
You can configure VLAN behavior for specific interfaces, including default VLAN ID (PVID), accepted
frame types, and ingress filtering.
Command attributes
Command Attribute
PVID The VLAN ID assigned to untagged frames received on the interface. If the
(CLI) switchport mode is set to "trunk" (" switchport mode" (pg.179) in
"4.2.13 VLAN Commands" (pg.115)), the PVID will be inserted into all
untagged frames sent from a tagged port (Default: 1).
Note:
If the interface is not a member of VLAN 1 (VLAN ID = 1), when
VLAN 1 is assigned to the interface's PVID, the interface is
automatically added to VLAN 1 as an untagged member. For the other VLAN, before assigning PVID, interfaces must be
added to the VLAN as untagged member.
If "Acceptable Frame Type" is set to "ALL" (or "switchport mode" is
set to "Hybrid" in CLI), PVID will be inserted into all untagged frames
received at input ports.
Acceptable Frame Type Sets the interface so that it selects and accepts either all frame types
(including tagged or untagged frames), or only tagged frames. If set to accept
only tagged frames, the switch will only accept frames if the frame tag
matches a VLAN to which this interface has been assigned (Default: All).
Ingress Filtering If ingress filtering is enabled, incoming frames for VLANs which do not
include this input port in their member set will be discarded at the input port.
(Default: Disabled)
Note:
Ingress filtering affects only tagged frames.
When ingress filtering is disabled, if a tag matched the VLAN
recognized on the switch, the interface accepts all incoming tagged
VLAN frames (except for explicitly forbidden VLAN on this port).
If ingress filtering is enabled, incoming tagged VLAN frames that are
not included in the members of this input will be discarded.
Ingress filtering does not affect BPDU frames, such as STP that is
not related to VLAN.
Trunk Member Shows whether the port is included in the trunk members. To add a trunk for
selected VLAN, use the last table on the "VLAN Static Table" page.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
3.12Multicast Configuration
This section explains the multicast configuration.
Multicasting
Multicasting is used to support real-time applications such as video conferencing or streaming audio.
A multicast server does not have to establish a separate connection with each client. A multicast server
broadcasts its service to the network and any hosts that receive the multicast register with their local
multicast switch/router. Although this approach reduces the network overhead required by a multicast
server, the broadcast traffic must be carefully pruned at every multicast switch/router it passes through to
ensure that traffic is only passed on to the hosts which use this service.
Multicast filtering
This switch uses Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to check for any connected hosts that
want to receive a specific multicast service. Then, it identifies the ports containing hosts requesting to
join the service and sends data out to those ports only. Next, it propagates the service request up to any
neighboring multicast switch/router to ensure that it will continue to receive the multicast service. This
procedure is called multicast filtering.
The purpose of IP multicast filtering is to optimize a switched network's performance, so multicast
packets will only be forwarded to those ports containing multicast group hosts or multicast routers/
switches, instead of flooding traffic to all ports in the subnet (VLAN).
3.12.1 Configuring IGMP Parameters
You can configure the switch to forward multicast traffic intelligently. Based on the IGMP query and
report messages, the switch forwards traffic only to the ports that request multicast traffic. This prevents
the switch from broadcasting the traffic to all ports and possibly disrupting network performance.
Command Usage
• IGMP Snooping
This switch can passively snoop on IGMP Query and IGMP Report packets transferred between IP
multicast routers/switches and IP multicast host groups to identify the IP multicast group members. It
simply monitors the IGMP packets passing through it, picks out the group information, and
configures multicast filters accordingly.
• IGMP Query
A router, or multicast-enabled switch, can periodically ask their hosts if they want to receive
multicast traffic. If there is more than one router/switch on the LAN performing IP multicasting, one
of these devices is selected as the "querier device" and assumes the role of querying the LAN for
group members. Next, it propagates the service request up to any neighboring multicast switch/router
to ensure that it will continue to receive the multicast service.

Web UI
1 Click [IGMP], and then [IGMP Configuration].
2 Modify the IGMP settings as necessary, and then click [Apply].
Command Attribute
IGMP Status When enabled, the switch will monitor network traffic to determine which
hosts want to receive multicast traffic. This is also referred to as IGMP
Snooping (Default: Disabled).
Act as IGMP Querier When enabled, the switch can serve as the "querier device", which is
responsible for asking hosts if they want to receive multicast traffic (Default:
Disabled).
IGMP Query Count Sets the maximum number of queries to be issued to a client that sends no
response, before the switch takes action to delete the client (Default: 2,
Range: 2–10).
IGMP Query Interval Sets the frequency (in seconds) at which the switch sends IGMP host-query
messages (Default: 125, Range: 60–125).
IGMP Report Delay Sets the time (in seconds) after receiving an IGMP Report for an IP multicast
address on a port, before the switch sends an IGMP Query to the port and
removes the entry from its list (Default: 10, Range: 5–30).
IGMP Query Timeout Sets the time (in seconds) the switch waits after the previous querier device
has stopped querying, before the interface that received query packets
recognizes that the querier device has been disconnected.
IGMP Version Sets the protocol version for compatibility with other devices on the network
(Default: 2, Range: 1–2).

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
Specifying Interfaces Connected to a Multicast Router
Depending on your network connections, IGMP snooping may not always be able to locate the IGMP
querier device. Therefore, if the IGMP querier device is a known multicast router/switch connected over
the network to an interface (port or trunk) on the switch, you can manually configure that interface to
join all the current multicast groups. This can ensure that multicast traffic is passed to all the appropriate
interfaces within the switch.
Note that the number of multicast router ports that can be configured is up to 32, including the ports
automatically configured by IGMP snooping.
Command attributes
Web UI
1 Click [IGMP], and then [Static Multicast Router Port Configuration].
2 Specify interfaces connected to a multicast router, specify the VLAN that
forwards all associated multicast traffic, and then click [Apply].
CLI
In the following example, port 11 is configured as a multicast router port in VLAN 1.
Command Attribute

3.12.3 Adding Multicast Addresses to VLANs
Multicast filtering can be dynamically configured using IGMP Snooping and IGMP Query messages as
described in "3.12.1 Configuring IGMP Parameters" (pg.80). For certain applications that require
tighter control, you may need to statically configure a multicast service on the switch. In this case, first
add all the ports attached to participating hosts to a common VLAN, and then assign the multicast
service to that VLAN group.
Command Usage
• Static multicast addresses are never deleted by aging.
• When a multicast address is assigned to a specific VLAN, the corresponding traffic can only be
forwarded to ports within that VLAN.
Command attributes
Web UI
1 Click [IGMP], and then [IGMP Member Port Table].
2 Specify the interface connected to a multicast service (via an IGMP- compliant
switch or multicast router), the VLAN that forwards multicast services, and the
multicast IP address, and then click [Apply].
Command Attribute
Interface Select [Port] or [Trunk] from the scroll down list.
VLAN ID Selects the VLAN that forwards all multicast traffic coming from the
connected multicast router/switch.

3.13.2 Configuring Interface Connections
The following can be set by using the Trunk Configuration page or Port Configuration page:
• To enable/disable an interface, manually set the speed and duplex mode
• Set flow control
• Set auto-negotiation
• Set interface capabilities to advertise
Command attributes
When auto-negotiation is enabled, the Switch Blade performs optimal settings for each
link. When it is disabled, be sure to manually set the [Speed/Duplex Mode] and [Flow
Control] options.
Command Attribute
Name Interface label can be specified (range: 1- 64 characters).
Admin Interface can be manually disabled. When an abnormality occurs (e.g.
excessive collisions occur), interface can be once disabled, and enabled
again after the problem is solved. In addition, interface may be disabled due
to a security reason.
Speed/Duplex When auto-negotiation is disabled, port speed and duplex mode can be
manually selected.
Flow Control Allows automatic or manual selection of flow control.
• Flow control can eliminate frame loss by "blocking" traffic sent from end
stations or segments connected directly to the switch when its buffers fill.
When flow control is enabled, back pressure is used for half-duplex
operation and IEEE 802.3x for full-duplex operation.
• Flow control should not be used for a port connected to a hub, unless it is
necessary to solve a problem. Doing so may reduce network performance
because the flow control affects segments connected to the hub.
Note:
To enable flow control between an uplink port and internal port,
specify "flowcontrol" for the uplink port function list, and "symmetric"
for the internal port function list.
Autonegotiation/Port
Capabilities
Sets auto-negotiation to be enabled or disabled. Specify the capabilities that
each port supports for auto-negotiation. The following capabilities are
supported. However, note that the internal ports (1 -10) are fixed to
1000Mbps and full-duplex mode.
• 10half: supports 10Mbps half-duplex operation.
• 10full: supports 10Mbps full-duplex operation.
• 100half: supports 100Mbps half-duplex operation.
• 100full: supports 100Mbps full-duplex operation.
• 1000full: supports 1000Mbps full-duplex operation.
• Sym: sends/receives pause frames for flow control.
• FC: supports flow control.
Trunk Shows whether the port is included among the trunk members. When
creating a trunk and selecting port members, refer to "3.15 Port Trunk

3.13.3 Setting Broadcast Storm Thresholds
Broadcast storms may occur when a device on the network is malfunctioning, or if application programs
are not well designed or properly configured. If there is too much broadcast traffic on the network,
performance can be severely degraded, or everything on the network can temporarily come to a
complete halt.
You can protect the network from broadcast storms by setting a threshold for broadcast traffic for each
port. Any broadcast packets exceeding the specified threshold will be discarded.
Command Usage
• Broadcast storm control is disabled by default.
• Broadcast control does not affect IP multicast traffic.
• The specified thresholds will be applied to the entire switch.
Web UI
1 Click [Port], and then [Broadcast Control].
2 Select a threshold, and then click [Apply].
The threshold can be selected from among 16, 64, 128, 256 packets/second (PPS).

port, you can study the traffic crossing the source port in a completely unobtrusive
manner.
Command Usage
The source port and monitor port speed must match. Otherwise traffic may be dropped from the monitor
port.
Web UI
1 Click [Mirror].
2 Specify the source port, the traffic type to be mirrored, and the monitor port, and
then click [Add].

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
3.15Port Trunk Configuration
Ports can be combined into an aggregate link to increase the bandwidth of a network
connection where bottlenecks exist or to ensure fault recovery. You can configure
trunks between any two switches of the same type. Uplink ports 11-12 on this switch
can be grouped into a trunk, creating an aggregate bandwidth up to 4 Gbps when
operating in full duplex mode.
Besides balancing the load across each port in the trunk, the additional port provides redundancy by
taking over the load if another one of the trunk ports fails. Before making any physical connections
between devices, use the Web UI or CLI to specify the trunk on the devices at both ends. When using a
port trunk, note the following points:
• Finish configuring port trunks before you connect the corresponding network cables between
switches to avoid creating a loop.
• Only the uplink ports 11 -12 can configure a trunk group.
• The ports at both ends of a connection must be configured as trunk ports.
• The ports at both ends of a trunk must be configured in an identical manner, including
communication mode (i.e., speed, duplex mode, and flow control), VLAN assignments, and CoS
settings.
• All the ports in a trunk must be treated as a whole when moved from/to, added or deleted from a
VLAN.
• STP, VLAN, and IGMP settings can only be set for the entire trunk.

MIB. Interfaces MIB and Ethernet-like MIB statistics display errors on the traffic
passing through each port. This information can be used to identify potential
problems with the switch (such as a faulty port or unusually heavy loading).
RMON statistics can display a broad range of statistics, including a total count of
various frame types and sizes passing through each port. All values displayed have

4.1 Usage of the Command Line Interface
4.1.1 Accessing the CLI
When the management station (management terminal) accesses the management interface of the switch
via a connection through Management Blade to console port, or via a Telnet connection, the switch can
be operated by entering command keywords and parameters at the prompt. Using the switch's command-
line interface (CLI) is very similar to entering commands on a UNIX system.
Console Connection
To access the switch through the console port, use the console redirection function of the Management
Blade.
1 Access the Management Blade CLI.
→ "BX600 S2 Blade Server System Unit Hardware Guide"
2 Display the Switch Blade console redirection screen from the Management
Blade menu.
3 Select "Console Redirection" from "Console Menu" to select the Switch Blade
to access.
"Console>" prompt will appear and the normal access mode (Normal Exec) starts.
In this mode, switch's configuration information can be displayed.
To change the configuration, the "enable" command must be entered. "Console#" prompt will
appear and the privileged access mode (Privileged Exec) starts.
4 Enter the necessary commands to execute tasks.
5 When finished, exit the session with the "quit" or "exit" command.
6 Press the return hot key to exit the console redirection screen.
The return hot key is [Ctrl] + [Q] by default. For details, refer to "BX600 Management Blade

Telnet connection
Telnet operates over the IP transport protocol. In this environment, the management station and any
network device you want to manage over the network must have valid IP addresses. Valid IP addresses
consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods.
Each address consists of a network portion and host portion. For example, the default IP address
assigned to this switch, 10.1.0.1, consists of a network portion (10.1.0) and a host portion (1).
IP address is not assigned to the switch by default. You must set a new IP address for the switch. To
access the switch through a Telnet session, you must first set the IP address for the switch. In addition,
when you operate the switch from a different IP subnet, set the default gateway.
For example, if your corporate network is connected to another network outside your office, or to the
Internet, you need to apply for a registered IP address. However, if you are connected to an isolated
network, then you can use any IP address that matches the network segment to which you are connected.
After you configure the switch with an IP address, you can open a Telnet session by performing these
steps.
1 From the remote host, enter the Telnet command and the IP address of the
device you want to access.
2 At the prompt, enter the user name and system password.
The default user names are "admin" and "guest", and the respective passwords are also "admin"
and "guest".
The Login window appears.
The CLI will display the "Vty-0#" prompt for the administrator to show that you are using
privileged access mode (i.e., Privileged Exec), or "Vty-0>" prompt for the guest to show that you
are using normal access mode (i.e., Normal Exec).
3 Enter the necessary commands to execute tasks.
4 When finished, exit the session with the "quit" or "exit" command.
You can open 4 sessions from Telnet.

4.1.2 Setting a Password
If this is the first time to login to the configuration program, you should define a new password using
the "username" command, record it and keep it in a safe place.
Passwords can consist of up to 8 alphanumeric characters and are not case sensitive. To prevent
unauthorized access to the switch, set the passwords as follows:
1 Open the console interface and enter the "enable" command to access the
privileged access mode.
2 Enter "configure" and press the [Enter] key.
The global configuration mode prompt will appear.
3 Enter "username admin password 0 password" for the "Privileged Exec" level.
This "password" means a new password. Press the [Enter] key. Change the password for the
"Normal Exec" level in the same manner.
4 Enter "exit" and press the [Enter] key.
5 Enter "copy running-config startup-config" and press the [Enter] key.
The configuration change is saved.
CLI configuration commands only modify the running configuration file and are not saved
when the switch is rebooted. To save all your configuration changes in nonvolatile
memory, you must copy the running configuration file to the startup configuration file using
the copy command.

4.1.3 Setting an IP Address
IP address is not assigned to the switch by default. You must set a new IP address for the switch. You
may also need to establish a default gateway between this device and management stations that exist on
another network segment. You can manually configure a specific IP address, or set the device to obtain
an address from a BOOTP or DHCP server. Valid IP addresses consist of four decimal numbers, 0 to
255, separated by periods. Anything outside this format will not be accepted by the CLI program.
The IP address for this switch is not specified by default. The default management interface is VLAN 1.
If you select the "bootp" or "dhcp" option, IP is enabled but will not function until a BOOTP or DHCP
reply has been received. Requests will be broadcast periodically by this device in an effort to learn the IP
address (BOOTP and DHCP values can include the IP address, default gateway, and subnet mask).
Before you assign an IP address to the switch, you must obtain the following information from the
network administrator:
• IP address for the switch
• Default gateway for the network
• Network mask for this network
To assign an IP address to the switch, complete the following steps:
1 From the Privileged Exec level global configuration mode prompt, enter

4.1.4 Entering Commands
This section describes how to enter CLI commands.
Keywords and Arguments
A CLI command is a series of keywords and arguments. Keywords identify a command and arguments
specify configuration parameters. For example, in the command "show interfaces status ethernet 1/5,"
show, interfaces, and status are keywords, ethernet is an argument that specifies the interface type, and 1/
5 specifies the unit-number/port-number.
Since this switch is a stand-alone device, the interface number and unit number are always "1". For
example, enter "1/5" for port 5.
Enter commands as follows:
• To enter a single command, enter the command keyword.
• To enter multiple commands, enter each command in the required order. For example, to enable
Privileged Exec command mode, and display the startup configuration, enter:
• To enter commands that require parameters, enter the required parameters after the command
keyword. For example, to set a password for the administrator, enter:
Command Abbreviation
The CLI uses a minimum number of characters that uniquely identify a command. For example, the
command "configure" can be entered as "config". If an entry is not sufficient to identify the command,
the system will prompt for further input.
Command Completion
When pressing the [Tab] key after typing a part of a keyword (unique word), CLI will print the
remaining characters of the keyword. For example, when the keyword is "configure", entering "config"
and pressing the [Tab] key makes CLI print "configure".

Help on Commands
You can display a brief explanation of the help system by entering the "help" command. You can also
display command syntax by using the "?" character to see a keyword list or parameter list.
Showing Commands
If you enter a "?" at the command prompt, the system will display the first level of keywords for the
current command class (Normal Exec or Privileged Exec) or configuration class (Global, Interface,
Line, VLAN Database). You can also display a list of valid keywords for a specific command. For
example, the command "show ?" displays a list of possible show commands:
The command "show interfaces ?" will display the following information:
Partial Keyword Lookup
If you terminate a partial keyword with "?", the remaining letters that may follow the initial letters are
provided (Remember not to leave a space between the command and "?"). For example, "s?" shows all
the keywords starting with "s".

Chapter 4 Command Reference
Negating Command
For many configuration commands you can enter the prefix keyword "no" to cancel the effect of a
command or reset the configuration to the default value. For example, the "logging" command will log
system messages to a host server. To disable logging, specify the "no logging" command. This guide
describes the negation effect for all applicable commands.
Using Command History
The CLI maintains a history of commands that have been entered. You can scroll back through the
history of commands by pressing the up arrow key [↑]. Any command displayed in the history list can
be executed again, or first modified and then executed.
Using the "Show history" command displays a longer list of recently executed commands.
Command Modes
The command set is divided into Exec and Configuration classes. "Exec" commands generally display
information on system status or clear statistical counters. "Configuration" commands, on the other hand,
modify interface parameters or enable certain switching functions. These classes are further divided into
different modes. Available commands depend on the selected mode. You can always enter a question
mark "?" at the prompt to display a list of the commands available for the current mode. The command
classes and associated modes are displayed in the following table:
*: You must be in Privileged Exec mode to access any of the configuration modes.

Exec Commands
When a user opens a new console session on the switch, the system enters Normal Exec command mode
(or guest mode). Only a limited number of the commands are available in this mode. You can access all
the commands in Privileged Exec command mode (or administrator mode). To access Privilege Exec
mode, enter the "enable" command (followed by the privileged level password if so configured). The
command prompt displays as "Console>" for Normal Exec mode and "Console#" for Privileged Exec
mode.
To enter Privileged Exec mode, enter the following commands:
Configuration Commands
Configuration commands are privileged level commands used to modify switch settings. These
commands modify the running configuration only, and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To
store the running configuration in nonvolatile memory, use the "copy running-config", "startup-config"
commands.
The configuration commands are organized into three different modes:
• Global Configuration
These commands modify the system level configuration, and include commands such as "hostname"
and "snmp-server community".
• Interface Configuration
These commands modify the port configuration such as "speed-duplex" and "negotiation".
• Line Configuration
These commands modify the console port configuration, and include commands such as "parity" and
"databits".
To enter the Global Configuration mode, enter the "configure" command in Privileged Exec mode. The
system prompt will change to "Console(config)#", which gives you access privileges to all Global
Configuration commands.
To enter Interface, Line Configuration, or VLAN mode, you must enter the "interface ...", "line ...", or
"vlan database" command while in Global Configuration mode. The system prompt will change to
"Console(config-if)#", "Console(config-line)#", or Console(config-vlan#)", indicating that you have
access privileges to the associated commands. You can use the "end" command to return to the
Privileged Exec mode.
User Access Verification
CLI session with the Switch Blade is opened.
To end the CLI session, enter [Exit].

Command Line Processing
Commands are not case sensitive. You can abbreviate commands and parameters as long as they contain
enough letters to differentiate them from any other currently available commands or parameters. You
can use the [Tab] key to complete partial commands, or enter a partial command followed by the "?"
character to display a list of possible matches. You can also use the following editing keystrokes for
command-line processing:
Key Function
[Ctrl] + [A] Moves the cursor to start of command line.
[Ctrl] + [B] Moves the cursor left by 1 character.
[Ctrl] + [E] Moves the cursor to end of command line.
[Ctrl] + [F] Moves the cursor right by 1 character.
[Ctrl] + [P] Shows the last command.
[Ctrl] + [U] Deletes one line.
[Ctrl] + [W] Deletes the last word typed.

4.3.2 Flash/File Commands
These commands are used to manage the system code or configuration files.
Copy
Use this command to upload/download a firmware code image or configuration file between the switch's
Flash memory and a TFTP server. When you save the runtime code or configuration settings to a file on
a TFTP server, that file can later be downloaded to the switch to restore system operation. The success of
the file transfer depends on the accessibility of the TFTP server and the quality of the network
connection.
• Syntax
- file: Keyword that allows you to copy to/from a file.
- running-config: Keyword that allows you to copy to/from the current running configuration.
- startup-config: Sets up configuration used for system initialization.
- tftp: Keyword that allows you to copy to/from a TFTP server.
• Default Setting
None
• Command Mode
Privileged Exec
• Command Details
- Displays the system prompts for data required to execute the copy command.
- The destination configuration file name should not contain slashes (/) or backslashes (\), and the
leading character of the file name must not be a period (.). The file name must consist of 1 to 31
characters. Allowed characters are A - Z, a - z, 0 - 9, "." , "-", "_".
- The maximum number of user-defined configuration files depends on the memory size.
- You can use "Factory_Default_Config.cfg" as the copy source from the factory default
configuration file, but you cannot use "Factory_Default_Config.cfg" as the copy destination.
- To rewrite the startup configuration, you must use startup-config as the copy destination.
- The Boot ROM (diagnostic) image cannot be uploaded/downloaded to/from a TFTP server.
• Example
The following example shows how to upload the configuration settings to a file on the TFTP server:
copy file file | running-config | startup-config | tftp
copy running-config file | startup-config | tftp
copy startup-config file | running-config | tftp

• Command Details
- This switch increases throughput for transmitting large continuous data, by supporting up to 9000
bytes jumbo frame. When using jumbo frames, you can significantly decrease overhead per packet
needed for capsulating the protocol data, compared with using a standard Ethernet frame that is up
to 1518 bytes.
- In order to use jumbo frames, the both source and destination end-nodes (terminals such as servers)
must support this function. In addition, when the network connection is full-duplex mode, all the
switches on the network that connect the two end-nodes must allow the extended size frames.
When the network is half-duplex connection, all devices within the collision domain must support
jumbo frame.
- When jumbo frame is enabled, the maximum buffer size for controlling broadcast storm is limited
to 64 packets.

• Command Details
If you do not enter an "snmp-server" command, no notifications are sent. In order to configure the
switch to send SNMP notifications, you must enter at least one "snmp-server host" command.
In order to enable multiple hosts, you must issue a separate "snmp-server host" command for each

• Command Details
If you do not enter an "snmp-server enable traps" command, no notifications controlled by this
command are sent. In order to configure this device to send SNMP notifications, you must enter at
least one "snmp-server enable traps command. If you enter the command with no keywords, all
notification types are enabled. If you enter the command with a keyword, only the notification type
related to that keyword is enabled.
The "snmp-server enable traps" command is used in conjunction with the "snmp-server host"
command. Use the "snmp-server host" command to specify which host or hosts receive SNMP
notifications. In order to send notifications, you must set at least one "snmp-server host" command.
The notification types used in this command all have an associated MIB object that allows them to be
globally enabled or disabled. Not all of the notification types have MIB objects that enable
notifications. Therefore, some of these cannot be controlled using the "snmp-server enable traps"
command.

• Command Details
- When a connection is started on a line with password protection, the system requires a password
entry.
If you enter the correct password, the system shows a prompt. You can use the "password-thresh"
command to set the number of times a user can enter an incorrect password. If the number of
incorrect entries exceeds the threshold, the system terminates the line connection and returns the
terminal to the idle state.
- When you try to display the contents of the configuration file while the system is running, or try to
display the contents of the configuration file downloaded from TFTP server, the password shown
on the screen will be encrypted. The password encryption option is used for decoding the
encrypted password. When setting a new password, you do not need to specify an encrypted

4.3.8 IP Commands
IP address of this switch is not assigned by default. A new IP address needs to be manually set as
necessary. You also need to establish a default gateway between this device and management stations
that exist on another network segment.
ip address
Use this command to set an IP address for this device. Add the "no" form before the command to restore
the default IP address.
• Syntax
- ip-address: IP address
- netmask: Network mask for the associated IP subnet. This mask identifies the host address bits
used for routing to specific subnets.
- bootp: Obtains IP address from BOOTP.
- dhcp: Obtains IP address from DHCP.
• Default Setting
IP address: 0.0.0.0
netmask: 255.0.0.0
• Command Mode
Interface Configuration (VLAN)
• Command Details
- You must assign an IP address to this device to gain management access over the network. You can
manually configure a specific IP address, or set the device to obtain an address from a BOOTP or
DHCP. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Anything
outside this format will not be accepted by the configuration program.
- If you select the "bootp" or "dhcp" option, IP is enabled but will not function until a BOOTP or
DHCP reply has been received. Requests will be broadcast periodically by this device in an effort
to learn its IP address. (Using DHCP or BOOTP, values of the IP address, default gateway, and
subnet mask can be set.)
- To start broadcasting requests, enter the "ip dhcp restart" command or restart the switch.
IP address is assigned to only one VLAN (Management VLAN). Therefore, to use VLAN, the
management station must be connected to a port that is included in Management VLAN.
When you assign an address to any VLAN, the original IP address is immediately disabled, and the
new address takes effect.
• Example
In the following example, the device is assigned an address in VLAN 1.
• Related Commands
ip dhcp restart
ip address ip-address netmask | bootp | dhcp

bridge spanning-tree
Use this command to enable the spanning tree algorithm globally for this switch. Add the "no" form
before the command to disable it.
• Syntax
- bridge-group: Bridge group number (bridge 1)
• Default Setting
Enabled
• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
The Spanning Tree Algorithm can be used to detect and disable network loops, and to provide backup
links between switches, bridges, or routers. This allows the switch to interact with other bridging
devices (that is, an STA compliant switch, bridge, or router) in the network, to ensure that only one
route exists between any two stations on the network, and provide backup links which automatically
take over when a primary link goes down.
• Example
The following example shows how to enable the spanning tree algorithm for this switch:
bridge forward-time
Use this command to configure the spanning tree bridge forward-time globally for this switch. Add the
"no" form before the command to restore the default.
• Syntax
- bridge-group: Bridge group number (bridge 1).
- seconds: Time in seconds. (Range: 4–30 seconds)
The minimum value is the higher of 4 or [(max-age / 2) + 1].
• Default Setting
15 Seconds
• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
This command sets the maximum time (in seconds) the root bridge will wait before changing states
(i.e., listening to learning to forwarding). This delay is required because every device must receive
information about topology changes before starting to forward frames. In addition, each port needs
time to receive conflicting information that would make it return to a blocking state. Otherwise,
temporary data loops might result.

• Command Details
This command sets the maximum time (in seconds) a device can wait without receiving a
configuration message before attempting to reconfigure. All ports (except for designated ports)
should receive configuration messages at regular intervals. Any port that ages out STA information
(provided in the last configuration message) becomes the designated port for the attached LAN. If it
is a root port, a new root port is selected from among the device ports.
• Example
bridge priority
Use this command to configure the spanning tree priority globally for this switch. Add the "no" form
before the command to restore the default.
• Syntax
- bridge-group: Bridge group number (bridge 1)
- priority: Priority of the bridge (Range: 0–65535)
• Default Setting
32768
• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
Bridge priority is used in selecting the root device, root port, and designated port. The device with the
highest priority (i.e. the lowest priority value) becomes the STA root device. However, if all devices
have the same priority, the device with the lowest MAC address will then become the root device.
• Example
bridge-group path-cost
Use this command to configure the spanning tree path cost for the specified port. Add the "no" form
before the command to restore the default.
• Syntax
- bridge-group: Bridge group number (bridge 1)
- cost: The path cost for the port. (Range: 1-65535)
Recommended range:
• Ethernet (10Mbps): 50–600
• Fast Ethernet (100Mbps): 10–60
• Giga-bit Ethernet: 3–10

• Command Details
- This command is used by the spanning-tree algorithm to determine the best path between devices.
Therefore, lower values should be assigned to ports attached to faster media, and higher values
assigned to ports with slower media.
- Path cost takes precedence over port priority.
• Example
bridge-group priority
Use this command to configure the priority for the specified port. Add the "no" form before the
command to restore the default.

• Command Details
- This command defines the priority for the use of a port in the spanning-tree algorithm. If the path
cost for all ports on a switch are the same, the port with the highest priority (that is, lowest value)
will be configured as an active link in the spanning tree.
- Where more than one port is assigned the highest priority, the port with the lowest port number will
be enabled.

bridge-group portfast
Use this command to set "fast forward" to an interface. Add the "no" form before the command to
disable "fast forward".
• Syntax
- bridge-group: Bridge group number (bridge 1)
• Default Setting
Ports 1 - 10: Enabled
Ports 11 - 13: Disabled
• Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
• Command Details
- This command is used to enable/disable Fast Forward for the selected interface. In this mode, ports
skip the Blocked, Listening, and Learning states and change to Forwarding state.
- Since end-nodes cannot create forwarding loops, they can pass through the spanning tree state
changes more quickly than the standard convergence time. "Fast forward" can achieve quicker
convergence for end-node workstations and servers, and also overcome other STA related timeout
problems. (Remember that "fast forward" should only be enabled for ports connected to an end-
node device.)
- Set "Enable" for ports 1–10.

4.3.12 Priority Commands
The commands described in this section allow you to specify which data packets have greater
precedence when traffic is buffered in the switch due to access congestion. This switch supports CoS
that allows four priority queues for each port. Data packets in a high priority queue for a port are
transmitted sooner than data packets in a low priority queue. Default priorities can be set for each
interface. A map between the frame priority tags and the switch priority queues can be configured.
switchport priority default
Use this command to set priority for incoming untagged frames, or the priority of frames received by the
device connected to the specified interface. Add the "no" form before the command to restore the
default.
• Syntax
- default-priority-id: The priority number for untagged ingress traffic (Range: 0 - 7). Seven is the highest priority.
• Default Setting
The priority is not set. The default value for untagged frames received on the interface is zero. The
switch operation does not change due to priority.

Chapter 4 Command Reference
• Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
• Command Details
- The default port priority applies if the incoming frame is an untagged frame received from a
VLAN trunk or a static-access port. This priority does not apply to IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged
frames. If the incoming frame is an IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tagged frame, the IEEE 802.1p User
Priority bits will be used.
- This switch provides four priority queues for each port. It is configured to use Weighted Round
Robin. Inbound frames that do not have VLAN tags are tagged with the input port's (default)
ingress user priority, and then placed in the appropriate priority queue at the output port. The
default priority for all input ports is zero. Therefore, any inbound frames that do not have priority
tags will be placed in queue 0 of the output port. (Note that if the output port is an untagged member of the associated VLAN, these frames are
stripped of all VLAN tags prior to transmission.)
• Example
The following example shows how to set a default priority "5" on port 3:
queue cos-map
Use this command to assign class of service (CoS) values to the CoS priority queues. Add the "no" form
before the command to set the default values to the CoS map.
• Syntax
- queue_id: The queue id of the CoS priority queue (Range: 0–3)
3 is the highest CoS priority queue.
- cos1 .. cosn: The CoS values that are mapped to the queue id (Range: 0–7)
This is a space-separated list of numbers. 7 is the highest priority.
• Default Setting
This switch supports Class of Service by using four priority queues, with Weighted Round Robin for
each port. Up to 8 separate traffic classes are defined in IEEE 802.1p. The default priority levels are
assigned according to recommendations in the IEEE 802.1p standard, as shown in the following
table.

4.3.13 VLAN Commands
VLAN is a group of ports, which can be set in any location on the network. The ports in one VLAN
communicate with each other as if they belong to a single physical segment. This section explains
commands that are used for creating VLAN, adding port members, and specifying how to use VLAN
tags.
vlan database
Use this command to enter VLAN database mode. All commands in this mode will take effect
immediately.
• Default Setting
None
• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
- Use the "VLAN database" command mode to add, change, and delete VLANs. After finishing
configuration changes, you can display the VLAN settings by using the "show vlan" command.
- Use the "interface vlan" command mode to define the port membership mode, and add or remove
ports from a VLAN. The results of these commands are written to the current configuration file,
and you can display this file by using the "show running-config" command.
• Example
• Related Commands
show vlan
• When using the VLAN function of the Switch Blade to split the network into 2 or more, a server
blade cannot be installed to server blade slot 5 in the chassis. The maximum number of server
blades that can be installed is 9.
• The Spanning Tree function of this switch works regardless of the VLAN configuration.
Therefore, if network groups are configured, all ports except for one port are disabled, even if
they belong to different VLANs, so the VLANs to which the disabled ports belong may not be
able to communicate.
When using VLAN and configuring network groups, disable Spanning Tree.

• Command Details
- Ingress filtering affects only tagged frames.
- When ingress filtering is disabled, if a tag matches the VLAN recognized on the switch, the
interface accepts all incoming tagged VLAN frames (except for VLAN explicitly forbidden on this
port).
- If ingress filtering is enabled, incoming tagged VLAN frames that are not included in the members
of this input port will be discarded.
- Ingress filtering does not affect BPDU frames, such as STP that is not related to VLAN.

• Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet, Port Channel)
• Command Details
- When setting "switchport mode" to trunk, a VLAN group can be set only as a tagged member of
the interface.
- Frames will always be tagged in the switch. The tagged | untagged parameter is used for setting
whether the VLAN that is added at an interface retains or removes the tag attached to the frame.
- If this interface is connected to a VLAN-non-aware device, add all supported VLANs to the
interface as untagged members. Otherwise, at least one untagged VLAN must be added. In
addition, an added VLAN must match "native VLAN" for the interface.
- When you manually add a VLAN that is in the forbidden list of the interface using this command,
the VLAN is automatically removed from the forbidden list of the interface.
• Example
The following example shows how to add VLANs 1, 2, 5 and 6 to the allowed list as tagged VLANs

4.3.14 Port Trunking Commands
By using trunk configuration, ports increase the bandwidth of a network connection or recover from a
failure. You can configure trunks between any two switches of the same type. Uplink ports 11-12 on this
switch can be grouped into a trunk, creating an aggregate bandwidth up to 4 Gbps when operating in
full-duplex mode.
channel-group
Use this command to add a port to a trunk. Add the "no" form before the command to remove a port
from a trunk.
• Syntax
- channel-id: The current port will be added to this trunk.
• Default Setting
No port has been set for a new trunk.
• Command Mode
Interface Configuration (Ethernet)
• Command Details
- Configure a trunk for ports before you connect the corresponding network cables between
switches, to avoid creating a loop.
- This switch supports only one trunk that contains ports 11 and 12.
- All links in a trunk must operate at the same transmission rate and the same duplex mode.
- You can link two switches of the same type only.
- A trunk must be set for the ports at both ends of a connection.
- The ports at both ends of a trunk must be configured in an identical manner, including
communication mode (i.e., transmission rate, duplex mode, and flow control), VLAN assignments,
and CoS settings.
- All the ports in a trunk must be treated as a whole when setting VLAN participation/
nonparticipation or addition/deletion.
- STP, VLAN, and IGMP settings can only be set for the entire trunk.
• Example
In the following example, trunk 1 is created with ports 11 and 12. To create a trunk, connect these
ports to 2 static trunk ports on another switch.

Chapter 4 Command Reference
4.3.15 IGMP Snooping Commands
This switch uses Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to check for any hosts that want to
receive a specific multicast service.
It identifies the ports containing hosts requesting the service, and sends data out to those ports only.
Then, it sends the service request to a nearby multicast switch/router, to make sure to continue receiving
the multicast service.

• Command Details
- Depending on your network connections, IGMP snooping may not always be able to identify the
IGMP querier device. Therefore, if the IGMP querier device is a known multicast router/switch
connected over the network to an interface (port or trunk) on the switch, you can manually
configure that interface to be connected to all the current multicast groups.
Note that the number of multicast router ports that can be configured is up to 32, including the
ports automatically configured by IGMP snooping.
- This switch supports up to 32 multicast router interfaces, consisting of interfaces automatically
configured by IGMP snooping and interfaces manually configured.
• Example
The following shows how to configure port 11 as a multicast router port within VLAN 1:
ip igmp snooping vlan static
Use this command to add a port to a multicast group. Add the "no" form before the command to remove
the port.
• Syntax
- vlan-id: VLAN ID (Range: 1–4094)
- ip-address: IP address for multicast group
- interface
• ethernet unit/port
- unit: The unit number of this switch is 1.
- port: Port number
• port-channel channel-id (only "1" can be specified)
• Default Setting
None
• Command Mode

• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
If enabled, the switch will serve as querier device if selected. The querier device is responsible for
asking hosts if they want to receive multicast traffic.
• Example
ip igmp snooping query-count
Use this command to set the query count. Add the "no" form before the command to restore the default.
• Syntax
- count: the maximum number of queries to be issued to a client that sends no response, before the
switch takes action to delete the client (Range: 2–10).
• Default Setting
2
• Command Mode
Global Configuration
• Command Details
"query count" specifies how long the querier device waits for a response from a multicast client.
When the client sends no response even after the querier device has issued the number of queries
specified by this command, the querier device takes action after the countdown timer shows the time
specified by "ip igmp snooping query-max-response-time". If the client sent no response by the time
the timer has counted down, the client is removed from the multicast group.
• Example
The following shows how to set the query count to 10:

- The command sets the time the switch waits after receiving an IGMP report (for an IP multicast
address) on a port before it sends an IGMP Query to that port and removes the entry from its list.
- The command sets the time the switch waits from sending a query to receiving a response from the
multicast client. When the client sends no response, even after the querier device has issued the
number of queries specified by the "ip igmp snooping query-count" command, the querier device
takes action after the countdown timer shows the elapsed time specified by this command. If the
client sent no response by the time the timer has counted down, the client is removed from the
multicast group.

Chapter 5 Using SNMP
5.1 Using SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is a communication protocol
designed to control network elements such as various network devices. Using SNMP,
switches, routers, and host computers are controlled. Usually, SNMP is used not only
for configuring these devices to work correctly on the network, but also for monitoring
the devices to evaluate performance, and detect errors that may occur.
To access the switch from the network management station by using SNMP, carry out the following
procedures.
1 Install the SNMP management application in the host computer.
2 Confirm that the management station and the switch are configured to the
same IP domain.
"3.2.3 Setting the IP Address" (pg.38)
3 Configure the community name and access rights to perform network
management access by using SNMP.
"3.3.1 Setting Community Access Strings" (pg.41)
4 To receive trap messages from the switch, specify the trap manager's IP
address, related community name, and the trap types that the switch creates.
"3.3.2 Specifying Trap Managers" (pg.42)
The SNMP management station can configure and monitor the network devices by setting or reading the
device variables specified in MIB (Management Information Base). For details about main MIB groups
supported by the switch, refer to "5.2 Supported MIB" (pg.195).
To monitor the device status or change system parameters on the switch from the network management
system, you need to access appropriate MIB variables using the SNMP management application. Refer
to "5.3 Accessing the MIB Objects" (pg.196).

5.4 SNMP Trap
SNMP trap supports the following items.
5.4.1 Address Accumulation Trap
This switch issues an SNMP trap when the number of entries stored in an address table exceeds 2048.
The SNMP management tool, which was specified in advance, can receive the trap.
Since this SNMP trap has hysteresis mechanism, a subtle change of the counter value does not cause trap
error. This trap is issued when the counter value goes through the threshold zone from 1536 to 2048. For
example, as shown in the following figure, the address accumulation trap is issued at point A, but is not
issued at point B.

8.2 Points to Note
The following are the points to note when using the Switch Blade.
The number of MAC addresses to be learned
When the Switch Blade has learned more than 2000 MAC addresses, it may take a long time to display
the MAC addresses on a Web screen, or a ping received while processing the display of received MAC
addresses may time out. Therefore, configure the network so that the number of MAC addresses to be
learned will not exceed 2000 per Switch Blade. Note that the number of MAC addresses that has already
been learned can be checked via the Web interface of each Switch Blade.
About unnecessary pause frames while executing flow control
If "Flowcontrol" is set to "Enable" in the Switch Blade, an unnecessary pause frame may be sent when a
broadcast frame is received.
In this case, network performance may decrease a little. Therefore, set the "Flowcontrol" to "Disable"
(default setting) for a network that may transmit a large amount of data.
There is no problem for a normal network if "Flowcontrol" is set to "Enable", because it uses broadcast
only for control.
About connecting with external switching hub, etc.
When the Switch Blade is connected to Fujitsu switching hub SH1300T, SH1300F or FMV-
DESKPOWER CE series (2002 summer model), the transmission rate of 10Mbps cannot be used.
Connect them at the fixed transmission speed of 100Mbps.
Notes on configuring VLAN
• Do not configure or change VLAN for the Switch Blade while operating the network.
Doing so may cause problems for network operation, because all ports are disabled when configuring
or changing VLAN.
• When using the VLAN function of the Switch Blade to split the network into 2 or more, a server
blade cannot be installed to server blade slot 5 in the chassis. The maximum number of server blades
that can be installed is 9.
• The Spanning Tree function of this switch works regardless of the VLAN configuration. Therefore, if
network groups are configured, all ports except for one port are disabled, even if they belong to
different VLANs, so the VLANs to which the disabled ports belong may not be able to communicate.
When using VLAN and configuring network groups, disable Spanning Tree.
Be sure to observe this restriction, especially for the network where the devices are monitored with
ping.

Settings for external ports (11–13) when disabling the auto-negotiation function
When disabling the auto-negotiation function, the Auto-MDI function is also disabled. The following
table shows the relation between the settings of external ports 11–13 and the cables used in static mode,
when disabling the auto-negotiation function. Use the correct cables.
