Abocom Manageable 14-port HomePNA Plus 2 Fast Ethernet Switch manual Web Management, VLANs Setting

Web Management

Web Management provides you an easy access to set up your switch. Open the web browser, enter the IP address to the Switch (default: 192.168.168.168), and click “Go” to run the Web Management.

In the home page, the left navigation pane where bookmarks are provided links you to the representative items to set up appropriate parameters. You can select VLANs Setting, Device Setting, Ports Setting, and View Stats to configure.

VLANs Setting

In this page, the row of Ports 1-14 is your device’s physical HomePNA ports, and the column of Ports 1-14 stands for 14 logical groups. In default settings, each logical group belongs to one VLAN’s port, which means others couldn’t see your data from other ports.

However, you can have your own settings. For example, select port 1, port3, and port5 as a new group, which is illustrated below. Then this group becomes a separate broadcast domain. The port of other VLAN group will not receive packets sending from this group. Therefore, VLAN could meet the demand to relief congestion and protect privacy.
