The EF-24M02G supports 1k Xmodem protocol to update its firmware. The Xmodem only works in 57600bps mode. It is imperative to change the baud rate to 57600 to download firmware. There are 2 ways to enter Xmodem mode to update the firmware:
Remember to change the baud rate back to 9600bps.
The EF-24M02G also provides a serial interface to manage and monitor the switch.
Enter the user name and password to login. The default user name is "admin", the default password is "admin".
There are six items for selection as follows:
The control keys for all menus are as follows:
Tab: Move the vernier to next item.
Backspace: Move the vernier to previous item.
Enter: Select item.
Space: Toggle selected item to next configuration setting.
3.2 - Switch Static Configuration
Press Tab or Backspace to highlight an item and Enter to select it.
The following Action menu will be accessible on most configuration pages:
Quit: Exit and return to the previous menu.
Edit: Configure items. When finished with configuration press Ctrl+A to go back action menu line.
Save: Save all configuration values.
Previous Page: Return to the previous page.
Next page: Go to the next page.
3.2.1 - Port Configuration
On this page users can access and alter the port configuration.
NOTE:
1. Pressing Save only saves the configuration of the current page.
2. If static trunk groups exist, you can see them (ex: TRK1, TRK2... ) after port 26, and configure all of the items as above.
This page can create a maximum of seven trunk groups. Users can select up to four ports from port 1~port 26 to build a trunking group.
NOTE: If VLAN groups exist, all of the members of the static trunk group must be in same VLAN group.
This page is to toggle VLAN mode between port-based VLAN, 802.1Q VLAN or to disable the VLAN function.
NOTE: The switch must be reset when VLAN mode has been changed.
If set to 802.1Q VLAN; PVID, ingress filtering 1 and ingress filtering 2 are available and can be accessed from this page.
Create a port-based VLAN and add member/nonmember ports to it.
NOTE: If trunk groups exist, you can see them (ex: TRK1, TRK2... ) after port26, and can configure if they are members of the VLAN or not.
Create a 802.1Q VLAN and add tagged / untagged member ports to it.
3-2-3-3. Edit or Delete a VLAN Group
On this page, users can edit or delete a VLAN group.
NOTE:
This page enables users to select if VLAN groups will be sorted by VLAN name or by VID on the VLAN group page.
Type the number of seconds that an inactive MAC address remains in the switch's address table. The valid range is 300~765 seconds. Default is 300 seconds.
3-2-4-2. Broadcast Storm Fitering
This page is for configuring broadcast storm control.
3-2-4-3.Max Bridge Transmit Delay Bound
In security mode a port will be "locked" - without permission of address learning. Only the incoming packets with SMAC already existing in the address table can be forwarded normally. Users can disable the port from learning any new MAC addresses, then use the static MAC addresses screen to define a list of MAC addresses that can use the secure port.
3-2-4-5.Collisions Retry Forever
Disable - In half duplex, if a collision occurs, the switch will retry 48 times and then drop the frame.
Enable - In half duplex, if a collision occurs, the switch will retry forever.
3-2-5. Administration Configuration
This page is used to set the management user name. Enter a new user name and select save.
This page is used to set the management password.
This page allows the user to configure the device information that appears in network listings.
Configure the IP settings.
3-2-6. Port Mirroring Configuration
Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic on switched networks.
Traffic through ports can be monitored by one specific port. Traffic that goes in or out monitored ports will be duplicated into monitoring port.
On the action menu line you can press Next Page to configure port9 ~ port26, press Previous Page return to last page.
NOTE: Only one sniffer mode can be enabled at a time.
Static priority can be set on a port-by-port basis. If you set a port to high priority, incoming frames from that port will always be considered high priority frames.
3-2-7-2. 802.1P Priority Configuration
There are 0~7 priority levels that can be mapped to high or low queue.
3-2-8. MAC Address Configuration
When you add a static MAC address, it remains in the switch's address table, regardless of whether the device is physically connected to the switch. This saves the switch from having to re-learn a device's MAC address when the disconnected or powered-off device is active on the network again.
On this page users can add / modify / delete static MAC addresses.
3-2-8-2. Filtering MAC Addresses
MAC address filtering allows the switch to drop unwanted traffic. Traffic is filtered based on the destination addresses. On this page users can add / modify /delete filtered MAC addresses.
Note: Pressing Enter once will complete deletion in delete mode.
3-3. Protocol Related Configuration
This page allows users to enable or disable the Spanning Tree function. Press Space to select enable or disable.
Spanning tree information is displayed on the left. New values for STP parameters can be entered on the right.
For parameter descriptions see section 2-4-8.
3-3-1-3. Per-Port Configuration
PortState: Displays the spanning tree status of the switch (per-port).
PathCost: Specifies the path cost of the port that the switch uses to determine which ports are the forwarding ports.
Priority: This is mean port priority, you can make it more or less likely to become the root port.
Select Edit to change the PortState, PathCost and Priority settings. Then Save to complete the changes.
On the action menu line you can press Next Page to configure port9 ~ port26. Press Previous Page return to last page.
Use this page to define management stations as trap managers and to enter SNMP community strings. Users can also define a name, location, and contact person for the switch.
System Name: Type a name to be used for the switch.
System Contact: Type the name of contact person or organization.
System Location: Type the location of the switch.
Select Edit to change the System Name, System Contact and System Location settings. Select Save to complete the changes.
Use this page to Add / Edit / Delete SNMP community strings.
A trap manager is a management station that receives traps, the system alerts generated by the switch. If no trap manager is defined, no traps are issued. Create a trap manager by entering the IP address of the station and a community string.
This page allows users to enable or disable the GVRP (GARP VLAN Registration Protocol) support.
This page allows users to enable or disable the IGMP support.
This page allows users to configure and view the LACP status.
