Chapter 3: Configuration

Parameter Description

Port: The port number for which the configuration below applies.

QoS class: Controls the default QoS class, i.e., the QoS class for frames not classified in any other way. There is a one-to-one mapping between QoS class, queue, and priority. A QoS class of 0 (zero) has the lowest priority.

DP level: Controls the default DP level, i.e., the DP level for frames not classified in any other way.

PCP: Controls the default PCP for untagged frames.

DEI: Controls the default DEI for untagged frames.

Tag Class: Shows the classification mode for tagged frames on this port.

-Disabled: Use default QoS class and DP level for tagged frames.

-Enabled: Use mapped versions of PCP and DEI for tagged frames.

Click on the mode to configure the mode and/or mapping.

DSCP Based: Click to enable DSCP Based QoS Ingress Port Classification.

Buttons:

-Save: Click to save changes.

-Reset: Click to undo any changes made locally and revert to previously saved values.

3.16.2 Port Policing

This section provides an overview of QoS Ingress Port Policers for all switch ports. Because voice and video usually maintain a steady rate of traffic, Port Policing is useful in constraining traffic flows and marking frames above specific rates.

Web Interface

To display the QoS Port Schedulers in the Web interface:

1.Click Configuration, QoS, Port Policing.

2.Select which port needs to enable the QoS Ingress Port Policers, and key in the Rate limit condition.

3.Scroll to select the Rate limit Unit with kbps, Mbps, fps and kfps.

4.Click Save to save the configuration.

LPB2848A, LPB2826A, LPB2810A, PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch Eco specifications

The Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch series, including the models LPB2810A, LPB2826A, and LPB2848A, presents a robust solution for businesses looking to enhance their network efficiency and reliability. Designed to support the growing demand for Power over Ethernet (PoE) devices, these switches provide the perfect backbone for modern network infrastructures.

One of the most significant features of this series is its PoE+ capability, which allows it to deliver power and data over a single Ethernet cable. This functionality simplifies cabling and installation, making it easier to deploy PoE devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points. The LPB2810A offers 8 PoE+ ports, the LPB2826A ups the ante with 24 ports, and the LPB2848A provides a whopping 48 ports, each capable of delivering up to 30 watts of power per port.

The managed switch system ensures that users can customize and optimize their network performance. With advanced features such as VLAN support, Quality of Service (QoS), and link aggregation, organizations can effectively manage traffic, prioritize critical applications, and potentially enhance overall network security. Furthermore, these switches support Layer 2 and Layer 3 functionalities, which allows for greater flexibility when implementing routing policies.

Another critical aspect of the LPB series is its built-in security features. The switches come equipped with advanced security protocols, including IEEE 802.1X port-based access control, which enables network administrators to authenticate devices before granting access to the network. This significantly reduces the risk of unauthorized access and ensures data integrity across the connected devices.

The Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switches are designed with reliability and ease of use in mind. Their fanless design promotes silent operation, making them ideal for deployment in both office environments and data centers. Additionally, the switches offer a user-friendly web-based interface and CLI options for straightforward management and configuration, catering to both novice and seasoned network administrators.

In conclusion, the Black Box PoE+ Gigabit Managed Switch series, featuring models LPB2810A, LPB2826A, and LPB2848A, stands out with its power-efficient design, extensive port options, and advanced security measures. These switches are an excellent choice for organizations that require a dependable and scalable networking solution to support their growing Ethernet and PoE device needs.
