Chapter 5 Switching
Switching module is used to configure the basic functions of the switch, including three
submenus: Port Setting, IGMP Snooping and LAG.
5.1 Port Setting
On this page, you can configure and view the basic parameters of each port, including the port
status, speed, duplex mode and flow control. As the parameters will affect the working mode of
the port, please set the parameters appropriate to your needs.
Choose the menu Switching→Port Setting to load the following page.
Figure 5-1 Port Setting
The following entries are displayed on this screen:
Port Setting
Port:
Select the desired port for configuration. It is multi-optional.
Status: Allows you to enable or
disable the port. “Enable" indicates that
the port is operational and "Disable" indicates the port is
non-
operational. If a port is unused for a long time, its status can
be set to “Disable” to cut down the energy cost.
20
Speed/Duplex: Select the Speed and Duplex mode for the port.
The device
connected to the switch should be in the same Speed and
Duplex mode with the switch.
Available field values are “Auto”,
“10M HD”, “10M FD”, “100M HD”, “100M FD” and “1000M FD”.
"HD" stands for Half-Duplex and "FD" stands for Full-
Duplex.
"Auto" means auto negotiation.
Flow Control:
Allows you to On/Off the Flow Control feature. When “On” is
selected, the switch can synchronize the speed with its peer to
avoid the packet loss caused by congestion.
Note:
The switch cannot be managed through the disabled port. Please enable the port which is used
to manage the switch.
5.2 IGMP Snooping
Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) snooping is a multicast control mechanism, which
can be used on the switch for dynamic registration of the multicast group.
IGMP Snooping allows the switch to recognize the IGMP messages transmitted between
network stations or devices and an IGMP host. When receiving IGMP report message from the
IGMP host, the switch will add the port to the multicast address table; when listening to IGMP
leave message from the IGMP host, the switch will remove the port from the multicast address
table. By managing and controlling the multicast address table, the broadcasting of multicast
traffic can be effectively prevented in the network.
On this page you can enable IGMP Snooping feature, Report Message Suppression feature and
view the current IGMP Group information.
Choose the menu Switching→IGMP Snooping to load the following page.

5.3 LAG
LAG is used to combine a number of ports together to make a single high-bandwidth data path,
which can highly extend the bandwidth. The bandwidth of the LAG is the sum of bandwidth of
its member ports.
There are some rules on using LAG:
For the member ports in a LAG group, their configuration of Port setting (Speed and
Duplex, Flow Control), QoS must be the same.
For the newly joined member ports in a LAG group, their default setting of Port setting
(Speed and Duplex, Flow Control), QoS will be configured the same as that of the first
member port in the LAG group.
The LAG member ports cannot be set as mirroring port.
Before setting the LAG, its member ports should be divided to the same VLAN, and have
the same PVID and drop the untagged packet rule. Change of the LAG setting will not
affect the VLAN setting.
If the LAG is needed, you are suggested to configure the LAG function here before configuring
the other functions for the member ports.
On this page, you can configure and view the information of the LAG group of the switch.
22
Choose the menu Switching→LAG to load the following page.
Figure 5-3 LAG Setting
Here you can configure and view the port parameters.
LAG Setting
Group ID:
Select an identified number for the trunk group from the
drop-down list.
Port: Select the port as the trunk group member. It is multi-optional
.
Clearing all the ports of the trunk group will delete this trunk
group.
Tips:
Calculate the bandwidth for a LAG group: If a LAG consists of the four ports whose
Speed/Duplex mode is 1000Mbps/Full Duplex, the whole bandwidth of the LAG group is up to
8000Mbps (2000Mbps * 4) because the bandwidth of each member port is 2000Mbps counting
the up-linked speed of 1000Mbps and the down-linked speed of 1000Mbps.

There are 3 types of VLAN modes supported in the switch:
1. MTU VLAN
MTU VLAN (Multi-Tenant Unit VLAN) defines an uplink port which will build up several VLANs
with each of the other ports. Each VLAN contains two ports, the uplink port and one of the
other ports in the switch, so the uplink port can communicate with any other port but other
ports cannot communicate with each other.
2. Port Based VLAN
VLANs are divided based on ports. By default, the Port Based VLAN is enabled.
3. 802.1Q VLAN
The IEEE 802.1Q protocol defines a new format of the frame; it adds a Tag header in the original
Ethernet frame, as follows:
Figure 7-2 IEEE 802.1Q frame
VLAN tags in the packets are necessary for the switch to identify packets of different VLANs.
The switch works at the data link layer in OSI model and it can identify the data link layer
encapsulation of the packet only, so you can add the VLAN tag field into the data link layer
encapsulation for identification.
IEEE 802.1Q Tag VLAN is divided by VLAN ID (VID). On receiving a frame, the switch checks the
VID in the Tag header of the frame to decide which VLAN it belongs to. If the receiving frame
doesn’t contain the Tag header, the switch will assign a Tag to the frame, using the PVID of the
port as its VID.
In this User Guide, the tagged packet refers to the packet with VLAN tag whereas the untagged
packet refers to the packet without VLAN tag.
The VLAN module is mainly for VLAN configuration, including four submenus: MTU VLAN, Port
Based VLAN, 802.1Q VLAN and 802.1Q PVID Setting.
7.1 MTU VLAN
On this page you can choose to enable MTU VLAN mode and configure VLANs.
29
Choose the menu VLAN→MTU VLAN to load the following page.
Figure 7-3 MTU VLAN Configuration
Note:
1. The uplink port will form several VLANs with each of the other ports. Each VLAN contains
two ports, the uplink port and one of the other ports in the switch, thus the uplink port can
communicate with any other port but other ports cannot communicate with each other.
2. For the first time the MTU VLAN mode is enabled, the switch will set port 1 as the uplink
port by default.
7.2 Port Based VLAN
On this page you can configure Port Based VLAN feature and view the related settings.
Choose the menu VLAN→Port Based VLAN to load the following page.

on this port as tagged. The switch adds the tag header before
sending the packet.
Not Member:
Click the check box to exclude the port from the current VLAN.
7.4 802.1Q PVID Setting
PVID (Port Vlan ID) is the default VID of the port. When the switch receives an un-VLAN-tagged
packet, it will add a VLAN tag to the packet according to the PVID of its received port and
forward the packets.
When creating VLANs, the PVID of each port, indicating the default VLAN to which the port
belongs, is an important parameter with the following two purposes:
（1） When the switch receives an un-VLAN-tagged packet, it will add a VLAN tag to the
packet according to the PVID of its received port
（2） PVID determines the default broadcast domain of the port, i.e. when the port receives
UL packets or broadcast packets, the port will broadcast the packets in its default
VLAN.
On this page you can configure PVID of the specified port. By default, the PVID of all ports is 1.
Choose the menu VLAN→802.1Q PVID Setting to load the following page.

1. Port Based
When port-base QoS mode is enabled, the user can manually map the ingress packets of the
port to four different priority queues. After that, the switch will preferentially send packets in
the queue with higher priority, and only when the queue with higher priority is empty, packets in
the queue with lower priority are sent.
2. 802.1P Based
Figure 8-2 802.1Q frame
As shown in the figure above, each 802.1Q Tag has a Pri field, comprising 3 bits. The 3-bit
priority field is 802.1p priority in the range of 0 to 7. The 802.1p priority value determines how
the switch maps the ingress packets to the priority queues. The mapping relationship between
eight 802.1p priority value and priority queues is shown as follows:
Figure 8-3 Map 802.1P priority
Priority 1 and 2 are assigned to the 1 (Lowest) priority queue.
Priority 0 and 3 are assigned to the 2 (Normal) priority queue.
Priority 4 and 5 are assigned to the 3 (Medium) priority queue.
Priority 6 and 7 are assigned to the 4 (Highest) priority queue.
When 802.1P QoS mode is enabled, the switch will automatically map the ingress packets to
priority queues based on the 802.1p priority and the above mapping relationship. After that, the
switch will preferentially send packets in the queue with higher priority, and only when the
queue with higher priority is empty, packets in the queue with lower priority are sent. As for the
untagged packets, the switch will forward it according to the default port-based QoS mode.
35
3. DSCP based
Figure 8-4 IP datagram
As shown in the figure above, the ToS (Type of Service) in an IP header contains 8 bits. The first
three bits indicate IP precedence in the range of 0 to 7. RFC2474 re-defines the ToS field in the
IP packet header, which is called the DS field. The first six bits (bit 0-bit 5) of the DS field
indicate DSCP priority in the range of 0 to 63. The last 2 bits (bit 6 and bit 7) are reserved. The
mapping relationship between sixty-four DSCP priority value and priority queues is shown as
follows:
Priority 0 to 15 are assigned to the 1 (Lowest) priority queue.
Priority 16 to 31 are assigned to the 2 (Normal) priority queue.
Priority 32 to 47 are assigned to the 3 (Medium) priority queue.
Priority 48 to 63 are assigned to the 4 (Highest) priority queue.
When DSCP QoS mode is enabled, the switch will automatically map the ingress packets to
priority queues based on the DSCP precedence and the above mapping relationship. After that,
packets in all the queues are sent in order based on the weight value for each queue. The
switch implements four scheduling queues, TC1, TC2, TC3 and TC4. TC1 has the lowest priority
while TC4 has the highest priority. The weight value ratio of TC1, TC2, TC3 and TC4 is 1:2:4:8.
As for the untagged packets, the switch will forward it according to the default priority mode.
The QoS module is mainly for priority configuration and traffic control, including three
submenus: QoS Basic, Bandwidth Control and Storm Control.
8.1 QoS Basic
This switch classifies the ingress packets, maps the packets to different priority queues and
then forwards the packets to implement QoS function.
This switch implements three priority modes based on port /802.1P /DSCP. The port-based QoS
mode supports four priority queues. The port priority queues are labeled as 1, 2, 3, and 4.
On this page you can configure and view QoS mode and the port-based priority setting.
Choose the menu QoS→QoS Basic to load the following page.

Note:
1. A port cannot enable both Storm Control and Ingress Rate Control at the same time.
2. When egress bandwidth control feature is enabled for one or more ports, you are
suggested to disable the flow control on each port to ensure the switch works normally.
8.3 Storm Control
Storm control function allows the switch to filter broadcast, multicast and UL frame in the
network. If the transmission rate of the chosen packets exceeds the set bandwidth, the
packets will be automatically discarded to avoid network broadcast storm.

Chapter 9 PoE
Note:
Only TL-SG1016PE supports configuring PoE function.
PoE (Power over Ethernet) technology describes a system to transmit electrical power along
with data to remote devices over standard twisted-pair cable in an Ethernet network. It is
especially useful for supplying power to IP telephones, wireless LAN access points, cameras
and so on.
Composition
A PoE system usually consists of PSE and PD.
PSE: Power sourcing equipment (PSE) is a device such as a switch that provides power on the
Ethernet cable to the linked device.
PD: A powered device (PD) is a device accepting power from the PSE and thus consumes
energy. PDs fall into two types, standard PDs and nonstandard PDs. Standard PDs refer to the
powered devices that comply with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at. Examples include wireless
LAN access points, IP Phones, IP cameras, network hubs, embedded computers etc.
Advantage
Cheap cabling: The remote device such as cameras can be powered by PSE in no
need of prolonging its power cord additionally and Ethernet cable is much cheaper
than AC wire or power cord.
Easy to connect: PoE uses only one Ethernet cable with no need of external power
supply.
Reliable: A powered device can be either powered by PSE using Ethernet cable or
powered through the provided power adapter. It is very convenient to provide a
backup power supply for the PDs.
Flexibility: In compliance with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at, global organizations can
deploy PoE everywhere without concern for any local variance in AC power standards,
outlets, plugs, or reliability.
Wide use: It can be applied to wireless LAN access points, IP Phones, IP cameras,
network hubs, embedded computers etc.
TL-SG1016PE is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE). Ports 1-8 on the switch support Power
over Ethernet (PoE) function, which can automatically detect and supply power for those
powered devices (PDs) complying with IEEE 802.3af and IEEE 802.3at. The maximum power
TL-SG1016PE can supply is 110W and the maximum power each PoE port can supply is 30W.
