3 Getting Start
3.1 Preparing for Installation
3.1.1 Safety Suggestions
To avoid personal injury and equipment damage, please carefully read the safety suggestions before you install
each device. The following safety suggestions do not cover all possible dangers
1. 3.1.1.1 Installation
c) Do not wear loose clothes or accessories that may be hooked or caught by devices during installation and
maintenance
2. 3.1.1.2 Movement
b) When moving devices, note the balance and avoid hurting legs and feet or straining the back.
c) Before moving devices, turn off all power supplies and dismantle all power modules.
3. 3.1.1.3 Electricity
a) Observe local regulations and specifications when performing electric operations. Relevant operators must
be qualified.
b) Before installing the device, carefully check any potential danger in the surroundings, such as ungrounded
power supply, and damp/wet ground or floor.
c) Before installing the device, find out the location of the emergency power supply switch in the room. First cut
off the power supply in the case of an accident.
e) Be sure to make a careful check before you shut down the power supply.
f) Do not place the equipment in a damp location. Do not let any liquid enter the chassis
a) Proper grounding of grounding screws on the back panel of the device. Use of a three-wire single-phase
socket with protective earth wire (PE) as the AC power socket.
22
5. 3.1.1.5 Laser
Some devices support varying models of optical modules sold on the market which are Class I laser products.
Improper use of optical modules may cause damage. Therefore, pay attention to the following when you use
them:
a) When a fiber transceiver works, ensure that the port has been connected with an optical fiber or is covered
with a dust cap, to keep out dust and avoid burning your eyes.
b) When the optical module is working, do not pull out the fiber cable and stare into the transceiver interface or
you may hurt your eyes.
To ensure the normal working and a prolonged durable life of the equipment, the installation site must meet the
following requirements
1. 3.1.2.1 Ventilation
For installing devices, a sufficient space (at least 10 cm distances from both sides and the back plane of the
cabinet) should be reserved at the ventilation openings to ensure the normal ventilation. After various cables
have been connected, they should be arranged into bundles or placed on the cabling rack to avoid blocking the
air inlets. It is recommended to clean the switch at regular intervals (like once every 3 months). Especially, avoid
dust from blocking the screen mesh on the back of the cabinet.
To ensure the normal operation and prolong the service life of router, you should keep proper temperature and
humidity in the equipment room.
If the equipment room has temperature and humidity that do not meet the requirements for a long time, the
equipment may be damaged.
In an environment with relatively high humidity, the insulating material may have bad insulation or even leak
electricity. Sometimes the materials may suffer from mechanical performance change and metallic parts may
get rusted.
In an environment with relatively low humidity, however, the insulating strip may dry and shrink. Static electricity
may occur easily and endanger the circuit on the equipment.
In an environment with high temperature, the equipment is subject to even greater harm, as its performance
may degrade significantly and various hardware faults may occur.
3. 3.1.2.3 Cleanness
Dust poses a severe threat to the running of the equipment. The indoor dust falling on the equipment may be
adhered by the static electricity, causing bad contact of the metallic joint. Such electrostatic adherence may
occur more easily when the relative humidity is low, not only affecting the useful life of the equipment, but also
causing communication faults.
4. 3.1.2.4 Grounding
A good grounding system is the basis for the stable and reliable operation of devices. It is the chief condition to
prevent lightning stroke and resist interference. Please carefully check the grounding conditions on the
installation site according to the grounding requirements, and perform grounding operations properly as required
23
Lightning Grounding
The lightning protection system of a facility is an independent system that consists of the lightning rod, download
conductor and the connector to the grounding system, which usually shares the power reference ground and
yellow/green safety cable ground. The lightning discharge ground is for the facility only, irrelevant to the
equipment.
EM C Grounding
The grounding required for EMC design includes shielding ground, filter ground, noise and interference
suppression, and level reference. All the above constitute the comprehensive grounding requirements. The
resistance of earth wires should be less than 1Ω
5. 3.1.2.5 EMI
Electro-Magnetic Interference (EMI), from either outside or inside the equipment or application system, affects
the system in the conductive ways such as capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, and electromagnetic radiation.
There are two types of electromagnetic interference: radiated interference and conducted interference,
depending on the type of the transmission path.
When the energy, often RF energy, from a component arrives at a sensitive component via the space, the energy
is known as radiated interference. The interference source can be either a part of the interfered system or a
completely electrically isolated unit. Conducted interference results from the electromagnetic wire or signal cable
connection between the source and the sensitive component, along which cable the interference conducts from
one unit to another. Conducted interference often affects the power supply of the equipment, but can be
controlled by a filter. Radiated interference may affect any signal path in the equipment and is difficult to shield.
a) For the AC power supply system TN, single-phase three-core power socket with protective earthing
conductors (PE) should be adopted to effectively filter out interference from the power grid through the filtering
circuit.
b) The grounding device of the switch must not be used as the grounding device of the electrical equipment or
anti-lightning grounding device. In addition, the grounding device of the switch must be deployed far away from
the grounding device of the electrical equipment and anti-lightning grounding device.
c) Keep the equipment away from high-power radio transmitter, radar transmitting station, and high-frequency
large-current device.
e) Interface cables should be laid inside the equipment room. Outdoor cabling is prohibited, avoiding damages
to device signal interfaces caused by over-voltage or over-current of lightning
The DHCP server has two address pools on the egress gateway:

4.3.1 Overview
In network monitoring and troubleshooting scenarios, users need to analyze data traffic on suspicious network
nodes or device ports. When port mirroring is enabled, packets received and transmitted on the source port will
be mirrored to the mirror port (destination port). Users can monitor and analyze the packets on the mirror port
through network analyzer without affecting the normal data forwarding of the monitored device.
As Figure 2-1 shows, by configuring port mirroring on Device A, the packets on Port 1 are mirrored to Port 10.
Though the network analyzer is not directly connected to Port 1, it can receive all packets on Port 1 and is able
to monitor the data traffic on Port 1.
Select the source port, the monitoring direction, and the mirror port, and click Save. The device supports
configuring one port mirroring rule.
43
Caution
● You can select multiple source ports but only one mirror port. The source ports cannot contain the mirror
port.
● For RG-ES205C-P, RG-ES205GC-P, RG-ES209C-P, RG-ES209GC-P switches, the mirror port only
supports packet capture and cannot transmit data with switches.
Parameter Description
Source Port Member The source port is also called the monitored port. Packets on the source port
will be mirrored to the mirror port for network analysis or troubleshooting.
Users can select multiple source ports. Packets on these ports will be mirrored
to one mirror port.
Bi-directions (input & output): All packets on the source port, including the
received packets and the transmitted packets, will be mirrored to the mirror
port.
Input: The packets received by the source port will be mirrored to the mirror
port.
Output: The packets transmitted from the sourced port will be mirrored to
the mirror port.
Mirror Port The mirror port is also called the monitoring port. The mirror port is connected
with a monitoring device, and it transmits packets on the source port to the
monitoring device.
Port isolation is used for isolating layer-2 packets. When port isolation is enabled, the downlink ports are isolated
from each other but can communicate with uplink ports.
Port isolation is disabled by default. Toggle the switch to On to enable port isolation.
44
Caution
The number of the uplink/downlink ports and port IDs of different devices vary. Please refer to the actual
information of the device.

5 ES Series Switches Switch Settings
5.1 Managing MAC Address
5.1.1 Overview
The MAC address table records mappings of MAC addresses and ports to VLANs.
The device queries the MAC address table based on the destination MAC address in a received packet. If the
device finds an entry that is consistent with the destination MAC address in the packet, the device forwards the
packet through the port specified by the entry in unicast mode. If the device does not find such an entry, it
forwards the packet through all ports other than the receiving port in broadcast mode.
Static MAC address entries: Static MAC address entries are manually configured by the users. Packets whose
destination MAC address matches the one in such an entry are forwarded through the corresponding port.
Dynamic MAC address entries: Dynamic MAC address entries are learned dynamically by the device. They are
generated automatically by the device.
This page displays the MAC address of the device, including the static MAC address configured manually by
the users and the dynamic MAC address learned automatically by the device.
Click Clear Dynamic MAC to clear the dynamic MAC address learned by the device. The device will re-learn
the MAC address and generate a MAC address table.
Note
● If you disable VLAN, the device will forward packets according to only the destination MAC address.
VLAN ID is not displayed in the MAC address table.
● Up to 100 MAC addresses are displayed.
Users can search for MAC address entries according to MAC address and VLAN ID.
48
Caution
If you disable VLAN, the VLAN ID will not be recorded in the MAC address table.MAC address entries can
only be found through MAC address.
Enter MAC address and VLAN ID, and then click Search. The MAC address entries that meet the search criteria
will be displayed in table right below the Search button. Moreover, users can enter partial characters of the MAC
address for fuzzy search.
By configuring a static MAC address, users can manually bind the MAC address of a downlink network device
with a port of the switch. After you add a static MAC address, when the device receives a packet destined to
this address from VLAN, it forwards the packet to the specified port.
Caution
If you disable VLAN, the VLAN ID will not be recorded in the MAC address table. It is not allowed to configure
a VLAN to which the static MAC address belongs.
Enter a MAC address, specify a VLAN ID and select the outbound port. Then click Add to add a static MAC
address. The MAC address entries will be updated accordingly in the MAC address table.
If you want to delete a static MAC address, select the MAC address entry you want to delete in the table and
click Delete.
49
5.2 VLAN Settings
This page displays the status of VLAN settings. Toggle the on-off switch to enable or disable VLAN settings.
When VLAN is disabled, the device operates like an un-managed switch. The device forwards packets according
to the destination MAC address, and the VLAN information of the forwarding packets remains unchanged during
the forwarding process.
When VLAN is enabled, the device operates like a managed switch. The device forwards packets according to
the destination MAC address and VLAN ID. Users can configure the port mode (access or trunk) based on
whether a VLAN tag is carried in packets. Besides, all device ports will be initialized to access ports.
Caution
Static VLANs can be created only when the global VLAN settings feature is enabled. For details, see Chapter
3.2.1.
The VLAN table contains the existing VLANs. Select the VLANs and click Delete, and the corresponding VLANs
will be deleted. VLAN 1 cannot be deleted.
50
Note
Caution
Users can configure port VLAN only when the global VLAN settings feature is enabled. For details, see
Chapter 3.2.1.
Configure the port mode and VLAN members of a port, and you will know the allowed VLANs of the port and
whether the packets forwarded by the port carry tags.
Note
You are advised to create VLAN members (refer to Chapter 3.2.2) before configuring the port based on
VLANs. Click VLAN Members to access VLAN Members page where you can add VLAN members.
Select the port you want to configure and the port mode. If you select the access mode, select Access VLAN
for the port and click Save. If you select the trunk mode, select Native VLAN for the port and enter the VLAN
ID range allowed by the port and click Save.
51
Access One access port can belong to only one VLAN and allow frames from this VLAN only
to pass through. This VLAN is called an access VLAN.
The frames from the access port do not carry VLAN tag. When the access port
receives an untagged frame from a peer device, the local device determines that the
frame comes from the access VLAN and adds the access VLAN ID to the frame.
Trunk One trunk port supports one Native VLAN and several Permit VLANs. Native VLAN
frames forwarded by a trunk port do not carry tags while Permit VLAN frames
forwarded by the trunk port carry tags. Trunk port is connected to switches.
Users can set the Permit VLAN range to limit VLAN frames that can be forwarded.
Make sure the trunk ports at the two ends of the link are configured with the same
Native VLAN.
Note
Improper configuration of VLANs on a port (especially uplink port) may cause failure to log in to the web
management system. Exercise caution when configuring VLANs.

6.1 DHCP Snooping
6.1.1 Overview
The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) snooping function allows a device to snoop DHCP packets
exchanged between clients and a server to record and monitor the IP address usage and filter out invalid DHCP
packets, including request packets from the clients and response packets from the server.
Toggle the switch to On to enable DHCP snooping, select the trusted ports, and then click Save. When DHCP
snooping is enabled, request packets from DHCP clients are forwarded only to the trusted ports. For response
packets from DHCP servers, only those from the trusted ports are forwarded.
Note
The uplink port connected to the DHCP server is configured as the trusted port generally.
6.2.1 Overview
When a local area network (LAN) has excess broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast data flows, the network
speed will slow down and packet transmission will have an increased timeout probability. This situation is called
a LAN storm, which may be caused by topology protocol execution errors or incorrect network configuration.
Users can perform storm control separately for the broadcast, unknown multicast, and unknown unicast data
flows. When the rate of broadcast, unknown multicast, or unknown unicast data flows received over a device
port exceeds the specified range, the device transmits only packets in the specified range and discards packets
53
beyond the range until the packet rate falls within the range. This prevents flooded data from entering the LAN
and causing a storm.
Select the storm control type, port, status, and enter the rate limit, and then click Save.
The storm control type and corresponding rate are displayed in the table right below the Save button. When
storm control is disabled, the rate of broadcast, unknown multicast, and unknown unicast data flows is not limited.
The corresponding status is displayed Disabled. When storm control is enabled, the corresponding rate limits
will be displayed.
Note
● The rate limit for the ports of RG-ES205C-P switch ranges from 1Mpbs to 100Mbps.
● The maximum rate supported by ports 1 to 8 of RG-ES209C-P switch is 100Mbps. If the configured rate
exceeds 100Mbps, the effective rate will still be 100Mbps. The rate limit for port 9 ranges from 1Mbps to
1000Mbps.
● The rate limit for the ports of RG-ES226GC-P, RG-ES218GC-P, RG-ES205GC-P, RG-ES209GC-P, RG-
FS303AB, RG-FS306-P, RG-FS306-D switches ranges from 1Mbps to 1000Mbps.
When loop guard feature is enabled, the port causing the loop will be shut down automatically. After the loop is
removed, the port will be up automatically. Loop guard function is disabled by default.

number of error packets. The rate of the port is updated every five seconds. Other traffic statistics are updated
every five minutes.
Select a port and click Clear Selected, or click Clear All to clear statistics such as current port traffic and start
statistics collection again.
Note
Aggregate ports can be configured. Traffic of an aggregate port is the sum of traffic of all member ports.
A MAC address table records mappings of MAC addresses and interfaces to virtual local area networks (VLANs).
A device queries the MAC address table based on the destination MAC address in a received packet. If the
device finds an entry that is consistent with the destination MAC Address in the packet, the device forwards the
83
packet through the interface corresponding to the entry in unicast mode. If the device does not find such an
entry, it forwards the packet through all interfaces other than the receiving interface in broadcast mode.
Static MAC address entries: Manually configured by the user. Packets whose destination MAC address matches
the one in such an entry are forwarded through the correct interface. This type of entries does not age.
Dynamic MAC address entries: Automatically generated by devices. Packets whose destination MAC address
matches the one in such an entry are forwarded through the correct interface. This type of entries ages.
Filtering MAC address entries: Manually configured by the user. Packets whose source or destination MAC
address matches the one in such an entry are discarded. This type of entries does not age.
Note
This section describes the management of static, dynamic, and filtering MAC address entries, without involving
multicast MAC address entries.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > MAC List.
Displays the MAC address information of the device, including the static MAC address manually set by the user,
the filtering MAC address, and the dynamic MAC address automatically learned by the device.
Querying MAC address entries: Support querying MAC address entries based on MAC address, VLAN ID or
port. Select the search type, enter the search string, and click Search. MAC entries that meet the search criteria
are displayed in the list. Support fuzzy search.
84
Note
The MAC address entry capacity depends on the product. For example, the MAC address entry capacity of the
device shown in the figure above is 32K.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > Dynamic MAC.
After receiving the packet, the device will automatically generate dynamic MAC address entries based on the
source MAC address of the packet. The current page displays the dynamic MAC address entries learned by the
device. Click Refresh to obtain the latest dynamic MAC address entries.
Delete dynamic MAC address: Select the clear type (by MAC address, by VLAN, or by port), enter a string for
matching the dynamic MAC address entry, and click Clear. The device will clear MAC address entries that meet
the conditions.
The switch forwards data based on the MAC address table. You can set a static MAC address entry to manually
bind the MAC address of a downlink network device with the port of the device. After a static address entry is
configured, when the device receives a packet destined to this address from the VLAN, it will forward the packet
85
to the specified port. For example, when 802.1x authentication is enabled on the port, you can configure static
MAC address binding to implement authentication exemption.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > Static MAC.
Click Add, enter the MAC address and VLAN VLAN ID, select the port for packet forwarding, and click OK. After
the addition is successful, the MAC address table will update the entry data.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > Static MAC.
Batch delete: In MAC List, select the MAC address entries to be deleted and click Delete Selected. In the
displayed dialog box, click OK.
86
Delete an entry: In MAC List, find the entry to be deleted, click Delete in the last Action column. In the displayed
dialog box, click OK.
To prohibit a user from sending and receiving packets in certain scenarios, you can add the MAC address of the
user to a filtering MAC address entry. After the entry is configured, packets whose source or destination MAC
address matches the MAC address in the filtering MAC address entry are directly discarded. For example, if a
user initiates ARP attacks, the MAC address of the user can be configured as a to-be-filtered address to prevent
attacks.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > MAC Filter.
Click Add. In the dialog box that appears, enter the MAC addresses and VLAN ID, and then click OK.
87
2. MAC Filter
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > MAC Filter.
Batch delete: In MAC List, select the MAC address entries to be deleted and click Delete Selected. In the
displayed dialog box, click OK.
Delete an entry: In MAC List, find the entry to be deleted, click Delete in the last Action column. In the displayed
dialog box, click OK.
Set the aging time of dynamic MAC address entries learned by the device. Static MAC address entries and
filtering MAC address entries do not age.
The device deletes useless dynamic MAC address entries based on the aging time to save entry resources on
the device. An overly long aging time may lead to untimely deletion of useless entries, whereas an overly short
aging time may lead to deletion of some valid entries and repeated learning of MAC addresses by the device,
which increases the packet broadcast frequency. Therefore, you are advised to configure a proper aging time of
dynamic MAC address entries as required to save device resources without affecting network stability.
Choose Local Device > Monitor > Clients > Aging Time.
Enter valid aging time and click Save. The value range of the aging time is from 10 to 630, in seconds. The
value 0 specifies no aging.
When two IP-based devices need to communicate with each other, the sender must know the IP address and
MAC address of the peer. With MAC addresses, an IP-based device can encapsulate link-layer frames and then
send data frames to the physical network. The process of obtaining MAC addresses based on IP addresses is
called address resolution.
88
The Address Resolution Protocol (ARP) is used to resolve IP addresses into MAC addresses. ARP can obtain
the MAC Address associated with an IP address. ARP stores the mappings between IP addresses and MAC
addresses in the ARP cache of the device.
The device learns the IP address and MAC address of the network devices connected to its interfaces and
generates the corresponding ARP entries. The ARP List page displays ARP entries learned by the device. The
ARP list allows you search for specified ARP entries by IP or MAC address. Click Refresh to obtain the latest
ARP entries.
Note
11.5 VLAN
11.5.1 VLAN Overview
A virtual local area network (VLAN) is a logical network created on a physical network. A VLAN has the same
properties as a normal physical network except that it is not limited by its physical location. Each VLAN has an
independent broadcast domain. Different VLANs are L2-isolated. L2 unicast, broadcast, and multicast frames
are forwarded and spread within one VLAN and will not be transmitted to other VLANs.
When a port is defined as a member of a VLAN, all clients connected to the port are a part of the VLAN. A
network supports multiple VLANs. VLANs can make L3 communication with each other through L3 devices or
L3 interfaces.
VLAN division includes two functions: creating VLANs and setting port VLANs.
The VLAN list contains all the existing VLAN information. You can modify or delete the existing VLAN, or create
a new VLAN.
89
1. Adding a VLAN
Create multiple VLANs: Click Batch Add. In the displayed dialog box, enter VLAN ID range (separate multiple
VLAN ID ranges with commas (,)), and click OK. The VLANs added will be displayed in VLAN List.
Create a VLAN: Click Add. Enter the VLAN ID and description for the VLAN, and click OK. The VLAN added
will be displayed in VLAN List.
Note
90
● If the device supports L3 functions, VLANs, routed ports, and L3 aggregate ports (L3APs) share limited
hardware resources. If resources are insufficient, a message indicating resource insufficiency for VLAN
will be displayed.
In VLAN List, Click Edit in the last Action column to modify the description information of the specified VLAN.
3. Deleting a VLAN
Batch delete VLANs: In VLAN List, select the VLAN entries to be deleted and click Delete Selected to delete
VLANs in a batch.
Delete a VLAN: In VLAN List, click Delete in the last Action column to delete the specified VLAN.
Note
The default VLAN (VLAN 1), management VLAN, native VLAN, and access VLAN cannot be deleted. For
these VLANs, the Delete button is unavailable in gray.
91
11.5.3 Configuring Port VLAN
1. Overview
Port List displays the VLAN division of the current port. Create VLANs in VLAN List page (see 3.5.2Creating a
VLAN) and then configure the port based on the VLANs.
You can configure the port mode and VLAN members for a port to determine VLANs that are allowed to pass
through the port and whether packets to be forwarded by the port carry the tag field.
One access port can belong to only one VLAN and allow only frames from this VLAN to pass
through. This VLAN is called an access VLAN.
Access VLAN has attributes of both Native VLAN and Permitted VLAN
Access port
The frames sent from the Access port do not carry tags. When the access port receives an
untagged frame from a peer device, the local device determines that the frame comes from the
Access VLAN and adds the access VLAN ID to the frame.
One trunk port supports one native VLAN and several allowed VLANs. Native VLAN frames
forwarded by a trunk port do not carry tags while allowed VLAN frames forwarded by the trunk
port carry tags.
Trunk port A trunk port belongs to all VLANs of the device by default, and can forward frames of all
VLANs. You can set the allowed VLAN range to limit VLAN frames that can be forwarded.
Note that the trunk ports on both ends of the link must be configured with the same Native
VLAN.
A hybrid port supports one native VLAN and several allowed VLANs. The allowed VLANs are
divided into Tag VLAN and Untag VLAN. The frames forwarded by the hybrid port from a Tag
Hybrid port
VLAN carry tags, and the frames forwarded by the hybrid port from an Untag VLAN do not
carry tags. The frames forwarded by the hybrid port from Native VLAN must not carry tags,
92
Port mode Function
Note
Whether the hybrid mode function is supported depends on the product version.
2. Procedure
Configure port VLANs in a batch: Click Batch Edit, select the port to be configured on the port panel, and select
the port mode. If the port mode is Access port, you need to select Access VLAN; if the port mode is Trunk port,
you need to select Native VLAN and enter the allowed VLAN ID range; if the port mode is Hybrid port, you need
to select Native VLAN and enter the allowed VLAN range and Untag VLAN range. Click OK to complete the
batch configuration.
Note
In Hybrid mode, the allowed VLANs include Tag VLAN and Untag VLAN, and the Untag VLAN range must
include Native VLAN.
Configure one port: In Port List, click Edit in the last Action column of a specified port, configure the port mode
and corresponding VLAN, and click OK.
93
Note
● VLAN ID range is from 1 to 4094, among which VLAN 1 is the default VLAN that cannot be deleted.
● When hardware resources are insufficient, the system displays a VLAN creation failure message.
● Improper configuration of VLANs on a port (especially uplink port) may cause the failure to log in to the
Eweb management system. Therefore, exercise caution when configuring VLANs.

12.3 Aggregate Ports
12.3.1 Aggregate Port Overview
An aggregate port (AP) is a logical link formed by binding multiple physical links. It is used to expand link
bandwidth, thereby improving connection reliability.
The AP function supports load balancing and therefore, evenly distributes traffic to member links. The AP
implements link backup. When a member link of an AP is disconnected, the system automatically distributes
traffic of this link to other available member links. Broadcast or multicast packets received by one member link
of an AP are not forwarded to other member links.
If a single interface that connects two devices supports the maximum rate of 1000 Mbps (assume that interfaces
of both devices support the rate of 1000 Mbps), when the service traffic on the link exceeds 1000 Mbps, the
excess traffic will be discarded. Link aggregation can solve this problem. For example, use n network cables to
connect the two devices and bind the interfaces together. In this way, the interfaces are logically bound to support
the maximum traffic of 1000 Mbps × n.
If two devices are connected through a single cable, when the link between the two interfaces is disconnected,
services carried on this link are interrupted. After multiple interconnected interfaces are bound, as long as there
is one link available, services carried on these interfaces will not be interrupted.
12.3.2 Overview
1. Static AP Address
In static AP mode, you can manually add a physical interface to an aggregate port. An aggregate port in static
AP mode is called a static aggregate port and the member ports are called member ports of the static aggregate
port. Static AP can be easily implemented. You can aggregate multiple physical links by running commands to
add specified physical interfaces to an AP. Once a member interface is added to an AP, it can send and receive
data and balance traffic in the AP.
2. Dynamic Aggregation
Dynamic aggregation mode is a special port aggregation function developed for the WAN port of RG-MR series
gateway devices. The maximum bandwidth of the WAN port of the MR device can support 2000M, but after the
intranet port is connected to the switch, a single port can only support a maximum bandwidth of 1000M. In order
to prevent the downlink bandwidth from being wasted, it is necessary to find a way to increase the maximum
bandwidth of the port between the MR device and the switch, and the dynamic aggregation function emerged
to meet the need.
After connecting the two fixed AG (aggregation) member ports on the MR gateway device to any two ports on
the switch, through packet exchange, the two ports on the switch can be automatically aggregated, thereby
doubling the bandwidth. The aggregate port automatically generated in this way on the switch is called a dynamic
aggregate port, and the corresponding two ports are the member ports of the aggregate port.
Note
Dynamic aggregate ports do not support manual creation and can be deleted after they are automatically
generated by the device, but member ports cannot be modified.
105
3. Load Balancing
An AP, based on packet characteristics such as the source MAC address, destination MAC address, source IP
address, destination IP address, L4 source port ID, and L4 destination port ID of packets received by an inbound
interface, differentiates packet flows according to one or several combined algorithms. It sends the same packet
flow through the same member link, and evenly distributes different packet flows among member links. For
example, in load balancing mode based on source MAC addresses, packets are distributed to different member
links of an AP based on their source MAC addresses. Packets with different source MAC addresses are
distributed to different member links; packets with a same source MAC address are forwarded along a same
member link.
Currently, the AP supports the traffic balancing modes based on the following:
Source port
Choose Local Device > Ports > Aggregate Ports > Aggregate Port Settings.
Enter an aggregate port ID, select member ports (ports that have been added to an aggregate port cannot be
selected), and click Save. The port panel displays a successfully added aggregate port.
Note

2. Modifying Member Ports of a Static Aggregate Port
Click an added static aggregate port. Member ports of the aggregate port will become selected. Click a port to
deselect it; or select other ports to join the current aggregate port. Click Save to modify the member ports of the
aggregate port.
Note
107
3. Deleting an Aggregate Port
Move the cursor over an aggregate port icon and click upper-right, or select the aggregate port to be deleted,
and click Delete Selected to delete the selected aggregate port. After deleted, the corresponding ports become
available on the port panel to set a new aggregate port.
Caution
After an aggregate port is deleted, its member ports are restored to the default settings and are disabled.
Choose Local Device > Ports > Aggregate Port > Global Settings.
Select Load Balance Algorithm and click Save. The Device distributes incoming packets among member links
by using the specified load balancing algorithm. The packet flow with the consistent feature is transmitted by
one member link, whereas different packet flows are evenly distributed to various links.
108
12.4 Port Mirroring
12.4.1 Overview
The switched port analyzer (SPAN) function is a function that copies packets of a specified port to another port
that is connected to a network monitoring device, After port mirroring is set, the packets on the source port will
be copied and forwarded to the destination port, and a packet analyzer is usually connected to the destination
port to analyze the packet status of the source port, so as to monitor all incoming and outgoing packets on
source ports.
As shown, by configuring port mirroring on Device A, the device copies the packets on Port 1 to Port 10. Although
the network analysis device connected to Port 10 is not directly connected to Port 1, it can receive packets
through Port 1. Therefore, the aim to monitor the data flow transmitted by Port 1 is realized.
Device A
Network Analyzer
Port 1 Port 10
The SPAN function not only realizes the data traffic analysis of suspicious network nodes or device ports, but
also does not affect the data forwarding of the monitored device. It is mainly used in network monitoring and
troubleshooting scenarios.
12.4.2 Procedure
Click Edit, select the source port, destination port, monitor direction, and whether to receive packets from non-
Src ports, and click OK. A maximum of four SPAN entries can be configured.
To delete the port mirroring configuration, click Delete in the corresponding Action column.
Caution
● You can select multiple source traffic monitoring ports but only one destination port. Moreover, the source
traffic monitoring ports cannot contain the destination port.
● An aggregate port cannot be used as the destination port.

status, and set the system power supply and port power supply policies respectively to achieve flexible power
distribution.
115
12.8.1 PoE Global Settings
Choose Local Device > Ports > PoE > PoE Settings.
PoE Transmit Power Mode refers to the way that a device allocates power to a connected PD (Powered Device).
It supports Auto mode and Energy-saving mode.
In Auto mode, the system allocates power based on the classes of PDs detected on ports. The device allocates
power to PD devices of Class 0~4 based on a fixed value: Class 0 is 15.4W, Class 1 is 4W, Class 2 is 7W, Class
3 is 15.4W, Class 4 Type 1 is 15.4W, and Class 4 Type 2 is 30W. In this mode, if the port is connected to a
device of Class 3, even if the actual power consumption is only 11W, the PoE power supply device will allocate
power to the port based on the power of 15.4W.
In energy-saving mode, the PoE device dynamically adjusts allocated power based on actual consumption of
PDs. In this mode, in order to prevent the power supply of the port from fluctuating due to the fluctuation of the
actual power consumption of the PD when the power is fully loaded, you can set the Reserved Transmit Power,
and the reserved power will not be used for power supply, so as to ensure that the total power consumed by the
current system does not exceed the limit of the PoE device. The size of the reserved power is expressed as a
percentage of the total PoE power. The value ranges from 0 to 50.
116
12.8.2 Power Supply Configuration of Ports

13 NBS Series L2 Multicast
13.1 Multicast Overview
IP transmission methods are categorized into unicast, multicast, and broadcast. In IP multicast, an IP packet is
sent from a source and forwarded to a specific group of receivers. Compared with unicast and broadcast, IP
multicast saves bandwidth and reduces network loads. Therefore, IP multicast is applied to different network
services that have high requirements for real timeliness, for example, Internet TV, distance education, live
broadcast and multimedia conference.
Global Settings allow you to specify the version of the IGMP protocol, whether to enable report packet
suppression, and the behavior for processing unknown multicast packets.
120
Table 5-1 Description of Configuration Parameters of Global Multicast
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping is an IP multicast snooping mechanism running on
a VLAN to manage and control the forwarding of IP multicast traffic within the VLAN. It implements the L2
multicast function.
Generally, multicast packets need to pass through L2 switches, especially in some local area networks (LANs).
When the Layer 2 switching device does not run IGMP Snooping, the IP multicast packets are broadcast in the
VLAN; when the Layer 2 switching device runs IGMP Snooping, the Layer 2 device can snoop the IGMP protocol
packets of the user host and the upstream PIM multicast device. In this way, an Layer 2 multicast entry is
established, and IP multicast packets are controlled to be sent only to group member receivers, preventing
multicast data from being broadcast on the Layer 2 network.
121
13.3.2 Enabling Global IGMP Snooping
By controlling protocol packet processing, an L2 multicast device can establish static or dynamic multicast
forwarding entries. In addition, the device can adjust parameters to refresh dynamic multicast forwarding entries
and IGMP snooping membership quickly.
The IGMP Snooping function is implemented based on VLANs. Therefore, each VLAN corresponds to an IGMP
Snooping setting entry. There are as many IGMP Snooping entries as VLANs on the device.
Click Edit in the VLAN entry. In the displayed dialog box enable/disable the VLAN multicast function, dynamic
learning function, fast leave function and static route connection port , and set the router aging time and the host
aging time, and click OK.
122

300 seconds
(Sec) ranges from 30 to 3600, in seconds.
Host Aging Time Aging time of dynamically learned member ports of a multicast
260 seconds
(Sec) group, in seconds.
IGMP snooping can forward multicast traffic only in the same VLAN. If multicast traffic needs to be forwarded to
different VLANs, the multicast source must send multicast traffic to different VLANs. In order to save upstream
bandwidth and reduce the burden of multicast sources, multicast VLAN register (MVR) comes into being. MVR
can copy multicast traffic received from an MVR VLAN to the VLAN to which the user belongs and forward the
traffic.
124
13.4.2 Configuring Global MVR Parameters
Click to enable the MVR, select the MVR VLAN, set the multicast group supported by the VLAN, and click Save.

13.7 Setting an IGMP Querier
13.7.1 Overview
In a three-layer multicast network, the L3 multicast device serves as the querier and runs IGMP to maintain
group membership. L2 multicast devices only need to listen to IGMP packets to establish and maintain
forwarding entries and implement L2 multicasting. When a multicast source and user host are in the same L2
network, the query function is unavailable because the L2 device does not support IGMP. To resolve this problem,
you can configure the IGMP snooping querier function on the L2 device so that the L2 device sends IGMP Query
packets to user hosts on behalf of the L3 multicast device, and listens to and maintains IGMP Report packets
responded by user hosts to establish L2 multicast forwarding entries.
13.7.2 Procedure
One querier is set for each VLAN. The number of queriers is the same as that of device VLANs.
In Querier List, click Edit in the last Action column. In the displayed dialog box, select whether to enable the
querier, set the querier version, querier source IP address, and packet query interval, and click OK.

15.2 Storm Control
15.2.1 Overview
When a local area network (LAN) has excess broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast data flows, the network
speed will slow down and packet transmission will have an increased timeout probability. This is called LAN
storm, which may be caused by topology protocol execution errors or incorrect network configuration.
Users can perform storm control separately for the broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast data flows. When
the rate of broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast data flows received over a device port exceeds the specified
range, the device transmits only packets in the specified range and discards packets beyond the range until the
packet rate falls within the range. This prevents flooded data from entering the LAN and causing a storm.
15.2.2 Procedure
Click Batch Edit. In the displayed dialog box, select configuration types and ports, enter the rate limits of
broadcast, unknown multicast, and unknown unicast, and click OK. To modify or delete the rate limit rules after
completing the configuration, you can click Edit or Delete in the Action column.
Storm control based on packets per second: If the rate of data flows received over a device port exceeds the
configured packets-per-second threshold, excess data flows are discarded until the rate falls within the threshold.
Storm control based on kilobytes per second: If the rate of data flows received over a device port exceeds the
configured kilobytes-per-second threshold, excess data flows are discarded until the rate falls within the threshold.

15.3 ACL
15.3.1 Overview
An access control list (ACL) is commonly referred to as packet filter in some documents. An ACL defines a series
of permit or deny rules and applies these rules to device interfaces to control packets sent to and from the
interfaces, so as to enhance security of the network device.
You can add ACLs based on MAC addresses or IP addresses and bind ACLs to ports.
Choose Local Device > Security > ACL > ACL List.
(1) Click Add to set the ACL control type, enter an ACL name, and click OK.
Based on MAC address: To control the L2 packets entering/leaving the port, and deny or permit specific L2
packets destined to a network.
147
Based on IP address: To control the Ipv4 packets entering/leaving a port, and deny or permit specific Ipv4
packets destined to a network.
(2) Click Details in the Action column of the ACL entry, set the filtering rules in the pop-up sidebar, and click
Save to add rules for the ACL. Multiple rules can be added.
The rules include two actions of Allow or Block, and the matching rules of packets. The sequence of a Rule
in an ACL determines the matching priority of the Rule in the ACL. When processing packets, the network
device matches packets with ACEs based on the Rule sequence numbers. Click Move in the rule list to
adjust the matching order.

Note
● ACLs cannot have the same name. Only the name of a created ACL can be edited.
● An ACL applied by a port cannot be edited or deleted. To edit, unbind the ACL from the port first.
● There is one default ACL rule that denies all packets hidden at the end of an ACL.
149
15.3.3 Applying ACL Rules
Choose Local Device > Security > ACL > ACL List.
Click Batch Add or Edit in the Action column, select the desired MAC ACL and IP ACL for ports, and click OK.
Note
Currently, ACLs can be applied only in the inbound direction of ports, that is, to filter incoming packets.
After an ACL is applied to a port, you can click Unbind in the Action column, or check the port entry and click
Delete Selected to unbind the ACL from the port.
150
15.4 Port Protection
Choose Local Device > Security > Port Protection.
In some scenarios, it is required that communication be disabled between some ports on the device. For this
purpose, you can configure some ports as protected ports. Ports that enable port protection (protected ports)
cannot communicate with each other, users on different ports are L2-isolated. The protected ports can
communicate with non-protected ports.
Port protection is disabled by default, which can be enabled by clicking to batch enable port protection for
multiple ports, you can click Batch Edit to enable port protection, select desired port and click OK.
After IP-MAC binding is configured on a port, to improve security, the device checks whether the source IP
addresses and source MAC addresses of IP packets are those configured for the device, filters out IP packets
not matching the binding, and strictly control the validity of input sources.
151
15.5.2 Procedure
Click Add, select the desired port, enter the IP address and MAC address to be bound, and click OK. At least
one of the IP address and MAC address needs to be entered. To modify the binding, you can click Edit in the
Action column.
Caution
IP-MAC Binding take effects prior to ACL, but it has the same privilege with IP Source Guard. The packet
matching either configuration will be allowed to pass through.
The search box in the upper-right corner supports finding binding entries based on IP addresses, MAC
addresses or ports. Select the search type, enter the search string, and click Search. Entries that meet the
search criteria are displayed in the list.
152
3. Deleting an IP-MAC Binding Entry
Batch Configure: In IP-MAC Binding List, select an entry to be deleted and click Delete Selected. In the
displayed dialog box, click OK.
Delete one binding entry: click Delete in the last Action column of the entry in the list. In the displayed dialog
box, click OK.
After the IP Source Guard function is enabled, the device checks IP packets from DHCP non-trusted ports. You
can configure the device to check only the IP field or IP+MAC field to filter out IP packets not matching the
binding list. It can prevent users from setting private IP addresses and forging IP packets.
Caution
IP Source Gusrd should be enabled together with DHCP snooping. Otherwise, IP packet forwarding may be
affected. To configure DHCP Snooping function, see 7.1 for details.
Choose Local Device > Security > IP Source Guard > Binding List.
The binding list is the basis for IP Source Guard. Currently, data in Binding List is sourced from dynamic
learning results of DHCP snooping binding database. When IP Source Guard is enabled, data of the DHCP
Snooping binding database is synchronized to the binding list of IP Source Guard. In this case, IP packets are
filtered strictly through IP Source Guard on devices with DHCP Snooping enabled.
153
The search box in the upper-right corner supports finding the specified entry in Binding List based on IP
addresses, MAC addresses, VLANs or ports. Click the drop-down list box to select the search type, enter the
search string, and click Search.
Choose Local Device > Security > IP Source Guard > Basic Settings.
In Port List, click Edit in the Action column. Select Enabled and select the match rule, and click OK.
IP address: The source IP addresses of all IP packets passing through the port are checked. Packets are allowed
to pass through the port only when the source IP addresses of these packets match those in the binding list.
IP address+ MAC address: The source IP addresses and MAC addresses of IP packets passing through the port
are checked. Packets are allowed to pass through the port only when both the L2 source MAC addresses and L3
source IP addresses of these packets match an entry in the binding list.
Caution
154
15.6.4 Configuring Exceptional VLAN Addresses
Choose Local Device > Security > IP Source Guard > Excluded VLAN.
When IP Source Guard is enabled on an interface, it is effective to all the virtual local area networks (VLANs)
under the interface by default. Users can specify excluded VLANs, within which IP packets are not checked or
filtered, that is, such IP packets are not controlled by IP Source Guard.
Click Edit, enter the Excluded VLAN ID and the desired port, and click OK.
Caution
Excluded VLANs can be specified on a port only after IP Source Guard is enabled on the port. Specified
excluded VLANs will be deleted automatically when IP Source Guard is disabled on the port.
155
15.7 Anti-ARP Spoofing
15.7.1 Overview
Gateway-targeted ARP spoofing prevention is used to check whether the source IP address of an ARP packet
through an access port is set to the gateway IP address. If yes, the packet will be discarded to prevent hosts
from receiving wrong ARP response packets. If not, the packet will not be handled. In this way, only the uplink
devices can send ARP packets, and the ARP response packets sent from other clients which pass for the
gateway are filtered out.
15.7.2 Procedure
Choose Local Device > Security > IP Source Guard > Excluded VLAN.
Click Add, select the desired port and enter the gateway IP, click OK.
156
Note
Generally, the anti-ARP spoofing function is enabled on the downlink ports of the device.

16.3 RLDP
16.3.1 Overview
The Rapid Link Detection Protocol (RLDP) is an Ethernet link failure detection protocol, which is used to rapidly
detect unidirectional link failures, bidirectional link failures, and downlink loop failures. When a failure is found,
RLDP automatically shuts down relevant ports or asks users to manually shut down the ports according to the
configured failure handling methods, to avoid wrong forwarding of traffic or Ethernet L2 loops.
Supports enabling the RLDP function of the access switches in the network in a batch. By default, the switch
ports will be automatically shut down when a loop occurs. You can also set a single switch to configure whether
loop detection is enabled on each port and the handling methods after a link fault is detected

CoS Priority is from 0 to 7. A greater value indicates a higher priority. 6
You can modify the priority of the voice traffic to improve the call quality.
Choose Local Device > Advanced > Voice VLAN > OUI.
The source MAC address of a voice packet contains the organizationally unique identifier (OUI) of the voice
device manufacturer. After the voice VLAN OUI is configured, the device compares the voice VLAN OUI with
the source MAC address in a received packet to identify voice data packets, and sends them to the voice VLAN
for transmission.
Note
After the voice VLAN function is enabled on a port, when the port receives LLDP packets sent by IP phones, it
can identify the device capability fields in the packets, and identify the devices with the capability of Telephone
as voice devices. It aslo extracts the source MAC address of a protocol packet and processes it as the MAC
address of the voice device. In this way, the OUI can be added automatically.

174
Table 8-6 Description of the Voice VLAN Configuration Parameters on a Port
Based on different ways the Voice VLAN function is enabled on the port,
the Voice VLAN Mode can be Auto Mode or Manual Mode:
Auto Mode: In this mode, the device checks whether the permit VLANs of a
port contain the voice VLAN after the voice VLAN function is enabled on
the port. If yes, the device deletes the voice VLAN from the permit VLANs
of the port until the port receives a voice packet containing a specified OUI.
Voice VLAN Mode Auto Mode
Then, the device automatically adds the voice VLAN to the port's permit
VLANs. If the port does not receive a voice packet containing the specified
OUI within the global aging time, the device removes the Voice VLAN from
the permit VLANs of the port.
Manual Mode: If the permit VLANs of a port contains the voice VLAN, voice
packets can be transmitted in the voice VLAN.
When the security mode is enabled, only voice traffic can be transmitted in
the voice VLAN. The device checks the source MAC address in each
packet. When the source MAC address in the packet matches the voice
Security Mode VLAN OUI, the packet can be transmitted in the voice VLAN. Otherwise, Enable
the device discards the packet.
When the security mode is disabled, the source MAC addresses of packets
are not checked and all packets can be transmitted in the voice VLAN.
Caution
● The voice VLAN mode of the port can be set as the auto mode only when the VLAN mode of the port is
Trunk mode. When the voice VLAN mode of the port work in the auto mode, the port exits the voice
VLAN first and is automatically added to the voice VLAN only after receiving voice data.
● After the voice VLAN function is enabled on a port, do not switch the L2 mode (trunk or access mode) of
the port to ensure normal operation of the function. If you need to switch the L2 mode of the port, disable
the voice VLAN function on the port first.
175
● It is not recommended that both voice data and service data be transmitted over the voice VLAN. If you
want to transmit both voice data and service data over the voice VLAN, disable the voice VLAN function
in security mode.

Cloud authentication allows you to control users accessing to the wireless network. The configuration will be
synchronized from Cloud to local EG device. In portal authentication, all the client’s HTTP requests will be
redirected to an authentication page first. The clients are required to authenticate, payment, accept the end-user
license agreement, acceptable use policy, survey completion, or other valid credentials, then they can visit the
internet after the authentication succeeded.
Portal authentication, also known as Web authentication, is usually deployed in a guest-access network (like a
hotel or a coffee shop) to control the client’s internet access.
