ABOUT THIS GUIDE

Congratulations on your purchase of the DGS-1224T 24-Port

10/100/1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet + 2-Port Mini GBIC Web-Smart

Switch. This device integrates 1000Mbps Gigabit Ethernet, 100Mbps

Fast Ethernet and 10Mbps Ethernet network capabilities in a highly

flexible package.

Purpose

This guide discusses how to install and use the configuration functions

of the DGS-1224T Web-Smart Switch.

Terms/Usage

In this guide, the term “Switch” (first letter capitalized) refers to the

DGS-1224T Web-Smart Switch, and “switch” (first letter lower case)

refers to other Ethernet switches. Some technologies refer to terms

“switch”, “bridge” and “switching hubs” interchangeably, and both

are commonly accepted for Ethernet switches.

INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the features of the DGS-1224T and provides

some background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet/Gigabit

Ethernet switching technology.

Gigabit Ethernet Technology

Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the

same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol,

full duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold

increase in theoretical throughput over 100-Mbps Fast Ethernet and a

hundredfold increase over 10-Mbps Ethernet. Since it is compatible

with all 10-Mbps and 100-Mbps Ethernet environments, Gigabit

Ethernet provides a straightforward upgrade without wasting existing

investments in hardware, software, and trained personnel.

The increased speed and extra bandwidth offered by Gigabit Ethernet

is essential to helping solve network bottlenecks that frequently

develop as more advanced computer users and newer applications

continue to demand greater network resources. Upgrading key

components, such as backbone connections and servers to Gigabit

Ethernet technology can greatly improve network response times as

well as significantly speed up the traffic between subnets.

Gigabit Ethernet enables fast optical fiber connections to support

video conferencing, complex imaging, and similar data-intensive

applications. Likewise, since data transfers occur 10 times faster than

Fast Ethernet, servers outfitted with Gigabit Ethernet NIC’s are able to

perform 10 times the number of operations in the same amount of time.

In addition, the phenomenal bandwidth delivered by Gigabit Ethernet

is the most cost-effective method to take advantage of today and

tomorrow’s rapidly improving switching and routing internetworking

technologies. And with expected advances in the coming years in

silicon technology and digital signal processing that will enable

Gigabit Ethernet to eventually operate over unshielded twisted-pair

(UTP) cabling, outfitting your network with a powerful 1000-Mbps-

capable backbone/server connection creates a flexible foundation for

the next generation of network technology products.

Fast Ethernet Technology

The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of

desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high

performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies

have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve

client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-T (Fast

Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the

current 10BASE-T technology. The non-disruptive and smooth

evolution nature, and the dominating potential market base, virtually

guarantees cost-effective and high performance Fast Ethernet

solutions.

100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a standard specified by the IEEE 802.3

LAN committee. It is an extension of the 10Mbps Ethernet standard

with the ability to transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while

maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol. Since the 100Mbps

Fast Ethernet is compatible with all other 10Mbps Ethernet

environments, it provides a straightforward upgrade and utilizes

existing investments in hardware, software, and personnel training.

Switching Technology

Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology

is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges

Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol

transmitting among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN

segments.

Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network

capacity available to users on a local area network. A switch increases

capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local area

network into different segments, which don’t compete with each other

for network transmission capacity.

The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the

individual segments. The switch, without interfering with any other

segments, automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one

segment to another. By doing this the total network capacity is

multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and

adapter cards.

IEEE 802.1Q VLAN

A Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN) is a group of end-stations that

are not constrained by their physical location and can communicate as

if located on a common broadcast domain, or a LAN. The primary

utility of using VLAN is to reduce latency and need for routers, in

favor of using faster switching technologies instead. The IEEE 802.1Q

specification provides a standard for tagging Ethernet frames with

VLAN membership information. The 802.1Q standard is intended to

address the problem of how to break large networks into smaller parts

so broadcast and multicast traffic use valuable network bandwidth

more efficiently. Additional VLAN benefits include:

Security: Security is increased with the reduction of opportunity in

eavesdropping on a broadcast network because data will be switched

to only those confidential users within the VLAN.

Cost Reduction: VLANs can be used to create multiple broadcast

domains, thus eliminating the need of expensive routers.

VID: VLAN ID is an identification of up to 4094 possible VLANs. A

VID of 0 is used to identify priority frames. The value 4095 (FFF) is

reserved, so the maximum possible VLAN configurations are 4,094.
