TSW212 Ports

The information in this page is updated in accordance with firmware version TSW2_R_00.01.03.1.

Summary

The Ports page provides information related to the status of the device's physical ports, as well as the ability to edit port settings, security, loopback detection.

General

In this section you can enable Jumbo frames and LLDP frame filter services.

Field	Value	Description
Jumbo frames	off | on; default: on	Allow ethernet frame with a payload greater than the standard maximum transmission unit (MTU) of 1500 bytes. This may improve network performance by making data transmissions more efficient.
LLDP frame filter	off | on; default: off	Enable to stop the forwarding of LLDP frames.
IGMP snooping	off | on; default: off	Enables IGMP snooping.
Multicast querier	off | on; default: off	Enables multicast querier.

Port Settings

This section displays information about the status of the device's ports with the ability to configure port settings.

Port Settings

---

The figure below is an example of the All Ports window, color indicates port speed and status:

To change port settings select port and press `edit (number of ports) ports` button:

You will be redirected to `Port settings`. From here you can enable/disable ports or change settings:

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: on	Toggle port on or off.
Port name	string; default: none	Name of the port. This is only used for easier management purposes.
EEE	off | on; default: on	Enable Energy-Efficient Ethernet.
Isolate port	off | on; default: off	When enabled port will be isolated from other isolated ports. Traffic between isolated ports will droped. Traffic between isolated and normal ports will be sent as normal.
Link speed	Auto | 10Mbps (E) | 100Mbps (FE) | 1000Mbps (GbE); default: Auto	A measure of how fast ports are able to transmit and receive data.
Duplex	Full | Half; default:	Advertises preferred duplex mode and speed for negotiation with other devices.

Port Status

---

This section displays port status information. There is also an option to select, enable ports, enable/disable PoE, EEE and Isolation options:

Field Name	Description
Port	Port ID.
Enabled	Enable/Disable port.
Status	Port status.
Speed	Port link speed. Possible speeds: GbE: 1000Mbps FE: 100Mbps E: 10Mbps
PoE (W)	PoE port power usage in watts.
EEE	Enable/Disable Energy-Efficient Ethernet.
Isolation	When enabled port will be isolated from other isolated ports. Traffic between isolated ports will be droped. Traffic between isolated and normal ports will be sent as normal.
TX sum	Total upload.
RX sum	Total download.
TX rate	Upload speed.
RX rate	Download speed.

Port Mirroring

Port Mirroring is a service that mirrors incoming and outgoing packets on one Ethernet port (Source Port) to another (Monitoring Port).

To change port mirroring settings select port and press `Edit` button:

You will be redirected to `Port mirroring settings`, from here you can select ingress and egress ports:

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	The port which will mirror the packets.
Ingress mirroring port list	port; default: none	Specify which port incoming traffic is mirrored.
Egress mirroring port list	port; default: none	Specify which port outcoming traffic is mirrored.

Loopback Detection

Loopback Detection

---

A port-based loopback detection service that using its own distinctive packets, seeks to identify and break a network loop by shutting down troublesome ports.

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: off	Enable loopback detection.
Broadcast interval	integer [1..10000]; default: none	Send detection packets in an given interval from 1 to 10000 seconds.
Auto-recovery interval	integer [60..10000]; default: none	Restores disabled ports in an given interval from 60 to 10000 seconds.

Port Tracking

---

Tracks specific port status. Notes:

STP: STP must be disabled in Network -> Spanning Tree and loopback detection must be enabled for the service to function.

Port unblocking: When a loop occurs before a broadcast, it won't be recognized until the broadcast transmits its own packets, since the service only listens for packets with its own particular protocol.

To change port tracking setting press on port and you will be redirected to `Port tracking configuration`:

Field	Value	Description
Enable	off | on; default: on	Enable port tracking.
Recovery mode	Auto | Manual; default: Auto	Manages port unblocking type.Possible modes: Manual: Port is blocked until manual unblock. Auto: Unblocked automatically depending on the global Auto-recovery interval value.

802.1X

This section displays information about the status of the device's ports with the ability to configure port `802.1x` settings.

General

Port Status

---

The figure below is an example of the Port Status window, color indicates port speed and status:
