Chapter 3: Software Description

Port/Trunk: The port number of the port or the ID of a trunk.

VLAN Aware Enabled: VLAN aware ports are able to use VLAN tagged frames

to determine the destination VLAN of a frame. (Default: Enabled)

VLAN aware ports will strip the VLAN tag from received frames and insert the tag in transmitted frames (except for the PVID). VLAN unaware ports will not strip the tag from received frames or insert the tag in transmitted frames.

Ingress Filtering Enabled: If enabled, incoming frames for VLANs that do not include this ingress port in their member set will be discarded.

(Default: Disabled)

Packet Type: Sets the interface to accept all frame types, including tagged or

untagged frames, or only tagged frames. (Default: All) If the Packet Type is set to “All,” the port can accept incoming tagged and untagged packets. Any received packets that are untagged are assigned to the default VLAN. Any tagged packets will be dropped unless the port is a member of the VLAN identi- fied by the VLAN tag in the packet. If the Packet Type is set to “Tagged Only,” the port will drop untagged packets and will only receive tagged packets. Tagged packets will be dropped unless the port is a member of the VLAN iden- tified by the VLAN tag in the packet. Switches should be connected to each other with the Packet Type set to “Tagged Only.”

PVID: The PVID (Port VLAN ID) is associated with untagged, ingress packets. It is assigned to untagged frames received on the specified interface. The PVID has no effect on ports that have Packet Type set to “Tagged Only.” (Default PVID: 1) It is not possible to remove a port from VLAN 1 unless its PVID has been changed to something other than 1. Outgoing packets are tagged unless the packet’s VLAN ID is the same as the PVID. When the PVID is set to “None,” all outgoing packets are tagged.

NOTE: If you select “Tagged Only” mode for a port, we recommend setting the PVID to “None” as the standard configuration.

LGB624A, 24-Port Web Smart Gigabit Ethernet Switch specifications

The Black Box 24-Port Web Smart Gigabit Ethernet Switch, model LGB624A, is designed to provide reliable and efficient network management for small to medium-sized businesses. This switch boasts an impressive combination of performance and flexibility, catering to the growing demands of increasingly interconnected environments.

One of the standout features of the LGB624A is its 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, which deliver high-speed data transfer rates of up to 1000 Mbps. This ensures that multiple devices can be connected and communication remains seamless, making it ideal for environments that require robust bandwidth capabilities. The switch supports autonegotiation on all ports, enabling automatic configuration to ensure optimal connectivity with various devices.

In addition to its hardware capabilities, the LGB624A incorporates advanced management features via its web-smart interface. This capability allows network administrators to configure, manage, and monitor their network efficiently without the need for complex command-line interfaces. The web-based management provides easy access to important network settings, VLAN configurations, and traffic monitoring, streamlining network management processes.

Quality of Service (QoS) features are also integrated, allowing for the prioritization of essential network traffic. This ensures that time-sensitive applications, like VoIP or video streaming, operate smoothly even during peak network loads. The LGB624A supports up to 802.1Q VLAN tagging, which facilitates better segmentation of network traffic for improved performance and security.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) support is another significant feature of this switch, allowing power to be delivered to connected devices such as IP cameras and wireless access points directly through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies and simplifies installation processes.

Robust security features are implemented to safeguard the network against potential threats. The switch supports port security, limiting access to authorized devices based on MAC address. Additionally, the LGB624A provides features for network monitoring and diagnostics, ensuring that administrators can quickly identify and resolve any issues that may arise.

Overall, the Black Box 24-Port Web Smart Gigabit Ethernet Switch, LGB624A, stands out for its blend of performance, flexibility, and ease of use, making it a dependable solution for businesses looking to enhance their network infrastructure. With a comprehensive suite of management and security features, it ensures that organizations can operate efficiently while safeguarding their digital environment.
