Switch Installation

2.1 Installation Guidelines

The following guidelines are provided to optimize the device performance. Review the guidelines before installing the device.

■ Make sure cabling is away from sources of electrical noise. Radios, power lines, and fluorescent lighting fixtures can interference with the device performance.
■ Make sure the cabling is positioned away from equipment that can damage the cables.
- Operating environment is within the ranges listed range, see “Specifications” on page 3.
■ Relative humidity around the switch does not exceed 95 percent (noncondensing).
Altitude at the installation site is not higher than 10,000 feet.
In 10/100 fixed port devices, the cable length from the switch to connected devices can not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
■ Make sure airflow around the switch and respective vents is unrestricted. Without proper airflow the switch can overheat. To prevent performance degradation and damage to the switch, make sure there is clearance at the top and bottom and around the exhaust vents.

2.1.1 Connecting Hardware

These instructions will explain how to find a proper location for your Modbus Gateways, how to connect to the network, hook up the power cable, and connect to the EKI-5000 Series.

2.2 Verifying Switch Operation

Before installing the device in a rack or on a wall, power on the switch to verify that the switch passes the power-on self-test (POST). To connect the cabling to the power source see “Power Supply Installation” on page 23.

At startup (POST), the System LED blinks green, while the remaining LEDs are a solid green. Once the switch passes POST self-test, the System LED turns green. The other LEDs turn off and return to their operating status. If the switch fails POST, the System LED switches to an amber state.

After a successful self-test, power down the switch and disconnect the power cabling. The switch is now ready for installation on its final location.

2.3 Installing the Switch

2.3.1 DIN Rail Mounting

The DIN rail mount option is the quickest installation option. Additionally, it optimizes the use of rail space.

The metal DIN rail kit is secured to the rear of the switch. The device can be mounted onto a standard 35mm (1.37") x 75 mm (3") height DIN rail. The devices can be mounted vertically or horizontally. Refer to the following guidelines for further information.

Note! A corrosion-free mounting rail is advisable.

2.4 Installing and Removing SFP Modules

Up to two fiber optic ports are available (dependent on model) for use in the switch. Refer to the technical specifications for details.

The Gigabit Ethernet ports on the switch are 100Base SFP Fiber ports, which require using the 100M or 1G mini-GBIC fiber transceivers to work properly. Advantech provides completed transceiver models for different distance requirement.

The concept behind the LC port and cable is quite straight forward. Suppose that you are connecting devices I and II; contrary to electrical signals, optical signals do not require a circuit in order to transmit data. Consequently, one of the optical lines is used to transmit data from device I to device II, and the other optical line is used transmit data from device II to device I, for full-duplex transmission.

Remember to connect the Tx (transmit) port of device I to the Rx (receive) port of device II, and the Rx (receive) port of device I to the Tx (transmit) port of device II. If you make your own cable, we suggest labeling the two sides of the same line with the same letter (A-to-A and B-to-B, as shown below, or A1-to-A2 and B1-to-B2).

Note! This is a Class 1 Laser/LED product. To avoid causing serious damage to your eyes, do not stare directly into the Laser Beam.

2.6 Power Supply Installation

2.6.1 Overview

Warning! Power down and disconnect the power cord before servicing or wiring the switch.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Overview - 1

Caution! Do not disconnect modules or cabling unless the power is first switched off.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Overview - 2

The device only supports the voltage outlined in the type plate. Do not use any other power components except those specifically designated for the switch device.

Caution! Disconnect the power cord before installation or cable wiring.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Overview - 3

The switches can be powered by using the same DC source used to power other devices. A DC voltage range of 12 to 48 VDC must be applied between the V1+ terminal and the V1- terminal (PW1), see the following illustrations. A Class 2 power supply is required to maintain a UL60950 panel listing. The chassis ground screw terminal should be tied to the panel or chassis ground. A redundant power configuration is supported through a secondary power supply unit to reduce network down time as a result of power loss.

EKI-5000 Series support 12 and 48 VDC. Dual power inputs are supported and allow you to connect a backup power source.

Managing Switch

3.1 First Time Setup

3.1.1 Overview

The Industrial Ethernet Managed Switch is a configurable device that facilitates the interconnection of Ethernet devices on an Ethernet network. This includes computers, operator interfaces, I/O, controllers, RTUs, PLCs, other switches/hubs or any device that supports the standard IEEE 802.3 protocol.

This switch has all the capabilities of a store and forward Ethernet switch plus advanced management features such as SNMP, RSTP and port mirroring. This manual details how to configure the various management parameters in this easy to use switch.

3.1.2 Introduction

To take full advantage of all the features and resources available from the switch, it must be configured for your network.

The switch implements Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP) and Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to provide most of the services offered by the switch. Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol allows managed switches to communicate with each other to ensure that there exists only one active route between each pair of network nodes and provides automatic failover to the next available redundant route. A brief explanation of how RSTP works is given in the Spanning Tree section.

The switch is capable of communicating with other SNMP capable devices on the network to exchange management information. This statistical/derived information from the network is saved in the Management Information Base (MIB) of the switch. The MIB is divided into several different information storage groups. These groups will be elaborated in detail in the Management and SNMP information section of this document. The switch implements Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) to optimize the flow of multicast traffic on your network.

The switch supports both port-based and tag-based Virtual LANs for flexible integration with VLAN-aware networks with support for VLAN-unaware devices.

Note! Please go to Tools > Save Configuration to save your configuration changes if you want to keep your configuration after system reboot.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Introduction - 1

3.1.3 Administrative Interface Access

There are several administrative interfaces to the switch:

  1. A graphical web interface accessible via the switch's built-in web server, supporting HTTP.

Note! This is the recommended method for managing the switch.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Administrative Interface Access - 1

  1. An SNMP interface can be used to read/write many settings.

3.1.4 Using the Graphical (Web) Interface

The graphical interface is provided via a web server in the switch and can be accessed via a web browser such as Opera, Mozilla, or Internet Explorer.

Note! JavaScript must be supported and enabled in your browser for the graphical interface to work correctly.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Using the Graphical (Web) Interface - 1

HTTP is supported to access the web server. By default, both protocols are enabled. Either or both may be disabled to secure the switch. (See the Remote Access Security topic in this section.)

To access the graphical interface, enter a URL like HTTP://192.168.1.1 in your browser's address bar.

The web server in the switch uses a signed security certificate. When you access the server via http, you may see a warning dialog indicating that the certificate was signed by an unknown authority. This is expected and to avoid this message in the future you can choose to install the certificate on your computer.

Note! This manual describes and depicts the web user interface in detail. The terminal interface is not specifically shown but is basically the same.

Advantech EKI-5726I-MB-AE - Using the Graphical (Web) Interface - 2

3.1.5 Configuring the Switch for Network Access

To control and monitor the switch via the network, it must be configured with basic network settings, including an IP address and subnet mask. Refer to the quick start guide in Section 1 for how to access your switch initially.

To configure the switch for network access, select [Add Menu Address Here] to reach the System Settings menu. The settings in this menu control the switch's general network configuration.

DHCP Enabled/Disabled: The switch can automatically obtain an IP address from a server using the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP). This can speed up initial set up, as the network administrator does not have to find an open IP address.
IP Address and subnet mask configuration: The IP address for the switch can be changed to a user-defined address along with a customized subnet mask to separate subnets.

Note! Advanced users can set the IP address to 0.0.0.0 to disable the use of an IP address for additional security. However, any features requiring an IP address (i.e., web interface, etc.) will no longer be available.

Default Gateway Selection: A Gateway Address is chosen to be the address of a router that connects two different networks. This can be an IP address or a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) such as “domainname.org”.
NTP Server: The IP address or domain name of an NTP (Network Time Protocol) server from which the switch may retrieve the current time at startup. Please note that using a domain name requires that at least one domain name server be configured.

3.1.6 Configuring the Ethernet Ports

The switch comes with default port settings that should allow you to connect to the Ethernet Ports with out any necessary configuration. Should there be a need to change the name of the ports, negotiation settings or flow control settings, you can do this in the Port Configuration menu. Access this menu by selecting Setup from the Main menu, and then selecting Main Settings.

■ Port Name: Each port in the managed switch can be identified with a custom name. Specify a name for each port here.
- Admin: Ports can be enabled or disabled in the managed switch. For ports that are disabled, they are virtually non-existent (not visible in terms of switch operation or spanning tree algorithm). Choose to enable or disable a port by selecting Enabled or Disabled, respectively.
Negotiation: All copper ports and gigabit fiber ports in the managed switch are capable of auto-negotiation such that the fastest bandwidth is selected. Choose to enable auto-negotiation or use fixed settings. 100Mbps Fiber ports are Fixed speed only.
Speed/Duplex/Flow Control: The managed switch accepts three local area network Ethernet Standards. The first standard, 10BASE-T, runs 10Mbps with twisted pair Ethernet cable between network interfaces. The second local area network standard is 100BASE-T, which runs at 100Mbps over the same twisted pair Ethernet cable. Lastly, there is 100BASE-F, which enables fast Ethernet (100Mbps) over fiber.

These options are available:

■ 10h–10 Mbps, Half Duplex
■ 10f –10 Mbps, Full Duplex
■ 100h–100 Mbps, Half Duplex
■ 100f –100 Mbps, Full Duplex

On managed switches with gigabit combination ports, those ports with have two rows, a standard row of check boxes and a row labeled "SFP" with radio buttons. The SFP setting independently sets the speed at which a transceiver will operate if one is plugged in. Otherwise, the switch will use the fixed Ethernet port and the corresponding settings for it.

3.2 Web Browser Configuration

The switch has an HTML based user interface embedded in the flash memory. The interface offers an easy to use means to manage basic and advanced switch functions. The interface allows for local or remote switch configuration anywhere on the network.

The interface is designed for use with [Internet Explorer (6.0), Chrome, Firefox].

3.2.1 Preparing for Web Configuration

The interface requires the installation and connection of the switch to the existing network. A PC also connected to the network is required to connect to the switch and access the interface through a web browser. The required networking information is provided as follows:

IP address: 192.168.1.1
■ Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
■ Default gateway: 192.168.1.254
■ User name: admin
■ Password: admin

3.3 Log In

To access the login window, connect the device to the network, see “Connecting the Switch to Ethernet Ports” on page 22. Once the switch is installed and connected, power on the switch see the following procedures to log into your switch.

When the switch is first installed, the default network configuration is set to DHCP enabled. You will need to make sure your network environment supports the switch setup before connecting it to the network.

  1. Launch your web browser on a computer.
  2. In the browser's address bar type in the switch's default IP address (192.168.1.1). The login screen displays.
  3. Enter the default user name and password (admin/admin) to log into the management interface. You can change the default password after you have successfully logged in.
  4. Click Login to enter the management interface.

Figure 3.1 Login Screen

One of the easiest things to do to help increase the security posture of the network infrastructure is to implement a policy and standard for secure management. This practice is an easy way to maintain a healthy and secure network.

After you have performed the basic configurations on your switches, the following is a recommendation which is considered best practice policy.

3.4.1 Changing Default Password

In keeping with good management and security practices, it is recommended that you change the default password as soon as the device is functioning and setup correctly. The following details the necessary steps to change the default password.

To change the password:

  1. Navigate to Tools > User Account.
  2. From the User drop-down menu, select the Admin (default) account.
  3. In the User Name field, enter admin for this account. It is not necessary to change the user name, however, a change in the default settings increases the security settings.
  4. In the Password field, type in the new password. Re-type the same password in the Retype Password field.

  5. Click Apply to change the current account settings.

3.10 QoS

The QoS function allows you to configure settings for the switch QoS interface and how the switch connects to a remote server to get services.

3.10.1 General

Traditionally, networks operate on a best-effort delivery basis, all traffic has equal priority and an equal chance of being delivered in a timely manner. When there is congestion, all traffic has an equal chance of being dropped.

The QoS feature can be configured for congestion-management and congestion-avoidance to specifically manage the priority of the traffic delivery. Implementing QoS in the network makes performance predictable and bandwidth utilization much more effective.

The QoS implementation is based on the prioritization values in Layer 2 frames.

3.10.1.3 Queue Scheduling

The switch support eight CoS queues for each egress port. For each of the eight queues, two types of scheduling can be configured: Strict Priority and Weighted Round Robin (WRR).

Strict Priority scheduling is based on the priority of queues. Packets in a high-priority queue are always sent first and packets in a low-priority queue are only sent after all the high priority queues are empty.

Weighted RoundRobin (WRR) scheduling is based on the user priority specification to indicate the importance (weight) of the queue relative to the other CoS queues. WRR scheduling prevents low-priority queues from being completely ignored during periods of high priority traffic. The WRR scheduler sends some packets from each queue in turn.

To access this page, click QoS > General > QoS Scheduling.

Troubleshooting

A.1 Troubleshooting

  • Verify that the right power cord/adapter (DC 12-48V) is being used; please don't use a power adapter with a DC output higher than 48V, or the device may be damaged.
    Select the proper UTP/STP cable to construct the user network. Use unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shield twisted-pair (STP) cable for RJ-45 connections that depend on the connector type the switch equipped: 100R Category 3, 4 or 5 cable for 10Mbps connections, 100R Category 5 cable for 100Mbps connections. Also be sure that the length of any twisted-pair connection does not exceed 100 meters (328 feet).
    R = replacement letter for Ohm symbol.

Diagnosing LED Indicators: To assist in identifying problems, the switch can be easily monitored through panel indicators, which describe common problems the user may encounter, so the user can be guided towards possible solutions.

If the power indicator does not light on when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem with power cord. Check for loose power connections, power losses or surges, at the power outlet. If you still cannot resolve the problem, contact a local dealer for assistance.

If the LED indicators are normal and the connected cables are correct but the packets still cannot be transmitted, please check the user system's Ethernet device configuration or status.
