5.7 Link Aggregation The Link Aggregation Control Prot ocol (LACP) provides a standardized means for exchanging information between Partner Systems on a link to allow their Link Aggregation Control instances to reach agreem ent on the identity of the Link Aggregation Group. It moves the link to that Link Aggregation Group, and enables its transmi s[...]

LACP If enable, the group is LACP static trunking group. If disable, the group is local static trunkin g gro up. All ports support LACP dynamic trunking group. If connecting to the device that also supports LA CP, the LACP dynamic trunking gro up will be created automatically. If LACP enable, users can configure LACP Active/Passive status in each p[...]

Parameter Description Active The port automatically sends LA CP prot ocol packets. Passive The port does not automatically send s L ACP protocol packets, and responds only if it receives LACP protocol packet s from the opposite device. 5.8 Filter Database The Internet Group Managem ent Protocol (IGMP) is an internal protocol of the Internet Protoco[...]

5.8.3 Port Security A port in security mode will be “lo cked” without permission of address learning. Only the incoming packets with SMAC already existing in the address table can be forwarded normally. User can disable the port from learning any new MAC addresses, then us e the static MAC addresses screen to define a list of MAC addresses that[...]

5.9 VLAN Configuration A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical net work grouping that limits the broadcast domain. It allows user to isolate network traffic so only members of the VLAN receive traffic from the same VLAN members. Basical ly, creating a VLAN from a SP3508A is logically equivalent of reconnecting a group of network devices to another Layer [...]

Support Protocol-based VLAN In order for an end statio n to send packets to diff erent VLAN, it has to be either capable of tagging packets with VLAN tags or attached to a VLAN- aware bridge that is capable of classifying and tagging the packet with different VLAN ID based on not only default PVID but also other information about the packet, such a[...]

5.9.2 Port VID The interface sets the Port VLAN ID that will be assigned to untagged traffic on a given port. For example, if port 10' s Default PVID is 100, all untagged packets on port 10 will bel ong to VLAN 100. The defaul t setting for all ports is VID 1. This feature is useful for ac commodating devices that you want to participate in th[...]

5.10 Spanning Tree The Spanning-Tree Protocol (STP) is a standardize d method (IEEE 802.1D) for avoiding loops in SP3508A netw orks. When STP enabled, ensure that only one path at a time is active betw een any two nodes on the network. It is recommended that users enable STP on all SP3508A to ensure a single active path on the network. 1. User can [...]
