Setting Up the Intel®  
Express 460T  
Standalone Switch  
Overview  
1
This guide provides information on configuring and managing the Intel®  
Express 460T Standalone Switch and is organized into these chapters:  
Chapter 1 - Information on the switch hardware and optional modules  
Chapter 2 - Information on using the switch in a LAN and advanced  
features like link aggregation and virtual LANs (VLANs)  
Chapter 3 - How to use Intel Device View  
Chapter 4 - How to use Web Device Manager  
Chapter 5 - How to use Local Management  
Management  
Through the switchs built-in management you can configure the device and  
monitor network health. There are several methods for managing this  
switch; you can use one method or any combination.  
SNMP management applications like Intel Device View, LANDesk®  
Network Manager, or Hewlett Packard OpenView* are tailored for Intel  
products and show a graphical representation of the device (with the use  
of the proper MIB).  
Onboard management allows control over the device without using an  
SNMP application. The Web Device Manager provides a graphical  
interface while Local Management is a menu-driven interface.  
Other SNMP-compliant applications can manage 460T switches if  
you compile the switchs MIB files into that application.

Connection Guidelines  
General  
The 460T switch can auto-negotiate port speed and can operate at 10  
Mbps or 100 Mbps per port. The switch matches the highest possible  
speed of an attached device.  
The 460T switch can auto-negotiate port duplex and can operate at half-  
duplex or full-duplex.  
Cabling  
Use Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (CAT 5 UTP) cable when  
connecting 100 Mbps devices to the switch.  
Use Category 3, 4, or 5 unshielded twisted-pair (CAT 3, 4, or 5 UTP)  
cable when connecting 10 Mbps devices to the switch.  
Limit the cable length between devices to 100 meters (330 feet).  
Use a straight-through cable to connect the switch to a server or  
workstation. For more information on cabling, see pages 9 and 10.  
To connect to another switch or hub use a crossover cable on any port,  
or set port 1 to MDI and use a straight-through cable.

When you are using the 1000SX, 1000LX, or 1000T module, only the port 1  
LED will blink and show activity because the module has only one port.  
Configuring Modules  
Generally, you do not need to make any changes to the optional modules  
because they are designed to configure themselves automatically for the  
attached device. However, you might need to configure the modules in order  
to communicate with older devices. You can use the Local Management or  
Web Device Manager to configure the 100FX, 1000SX, 1000LX, or 1000T  
modules. See Chapter 4 for more information about the Web Device  
Manager, and Chapter 5 for more information about Local Management.

Media Requirements  
Incorrect cabling is often the cause of network performance problems. The  
next two pages provide information about how to make sure your cabling is  
correct.  
100Base-TX  
The 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet specification requires that you use CAT 5  
UTP cabling to operate at 100 Mbps. If you use lower-grade cabling (CAT 3  
or CAT 4), you may get a connection, but also experience data loss or slow  
performance. The limit is 100 meters between any two devices.  
10Base-T  
The 10Base-T Ethernet specification lets you use CAT 3, CAT 4, or  
CAT 5 UTP cabling. The limit is 100 meters between any two devices.  
NOTE:  
100 meters = 330 feet  
200 meters = 660 feet  
500 meters = 1,650 feet  
100Base-FX  
The optional Fiber Module lets you connect to a switch at distances up to  
400 meters (hubs up to 160 m) at half-duplex or 2 km at full-duplex. Use  
62.5/125 µm multimode fiber optic cable with an SC-type fiber optic  
connector.  
2 km = 2000 meters = 6,600 feet  
5 km = 5000 meters = 16,500 feet  
1000Base-T  
The 1000Base-T Gigabit specification requires that you use CAT 5 UTP  
cabling to operate at 1000 Mbps. If you use a lower grade cabling you will  
experience either no connection or extreme data loss. The maximum  
distance between any two devices is 100 meters.  
1000Base-SX/1000Base-LX  
The optional 1000Base-SX and 1000Base-LX Gigabit Modules provide a  
high-speed connection to another device at distances up to 5 km. The  
maximum distance depends on the type of cable used. Refer to the following  
table for a list of cable types and maximum distances. Use cables with an  
SC-type fiber optic connector.

Testing a Cable  
When using a 100Base-TX module, you can quickly check the cables link  
integrity by plugging one end into port 1 and the other end into port 2. Make  
sure the crossover (MDI/MDI-X) button is out. Check the Activity LEDs for  
ports 1 and 2. If the LEDs are on, you have a functioning crossover cable.  
If the LEDs are off, push the MDI/MDI-X button in. If the Activity LEDs  
for ports 1 and 2 turn on, you have a functioning straight-through cable.  
However, if the LEDs remain off, you probably have a bad cable.  
If a cable passes these tests, but the network connection is slow, verify that  
wires 1, 2 and 3, 6 on the cable are twisted pairs, as shown in the following  
diagrams.

Straight-through vs. Crossover Cables  
Switch ports are wired for MDI-X. Use a straight-through cable to connect  
to a workstation or server (network adapter cards are wired MDI). To  
connect to another MDI-X port, use a crossover cable. Following are the pin  
arrangements for the switchs Ethernet port and the typical RJ-45 connector.

Standalone Switch  
Overview  
This section provides an overview for using the Express 460T standalone  
switch within a network. The chapter covers the basic differences between a  
switch and hub, basic switching features like flow control and Spanning  
Tree, and a discussion of more advanced features such as link aggregation  
and the types of VLANs available on the switch.

What is a Switch?  
A switch segments traffic, providing each port its own collision domain. This  
is different from a hub where all ports belong to the same collision domain.  
Segments and Hubs  
Hubs combine multiple wires so all attached devices behave like they are on  
the same wire. Because the devices share the same segment, data sent by  
one device is retransmitted to all devices on the same hub. This is equivalent  
to having all devices connected in a bus topology as illustrated below.  
Signal sent to all ports  
Client A  
Client B  
Client A sends  
signal to Client B  
Client B  
receives signal  
The disadvantage is all devices must share the total available bandwidth.  
The more devices that are attached to the hub the less bandwidth for each  
user. Also, network performance suffers because all devices receive traffic  
and collisions from other users as the hub retransmits data across all ports.  
Switches  
Switches send traffic only to specific ports, rather than transmitting data  
across all ports. This means that each device attached to the switch receives  
fewer collisions and the entire bandwidth is available to the device.

The signal is not  
sent to all ports  
Client A sends  
Client B

The switch maintains a table that associates a devices MAC address to a  
port on the switch. When Client A communicates with Client B, the switch  
checks the table to determine which port Client B is attached to and then  
forwards the traffic to that port. If a device sends traffic to an address that is  
not in the table (or sends broadcast or multicast traffic) the switch sends the  
traffic out to all ports on the switch. When the switch receives a response it  
updates the table with the new address.

In this example, the 460T switch serves as the backbone for a small network.  
The switch can provide high-bandwidth support to the clients (servers and  
power users) that require it while providing connections for 10 Mbps  
devices. Use the optional modules available for the 460T to extend the reach  
of the network beyond 100 meters (330 feet). For example, to connect  
different buildings or remote campuses to an Intel® Express 550T Switch  
located at a central office.

Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide  
Flow Control  
When network traffic is heavy, the switchs port buffers fill up faster than  
the switch can send the information. In cases like this, the switch tells the  
transmitting device to wait until the information in the buffer can be sent.  
This traffic control mechanism is called flow control.  
The method of flow control depends on whether the port is set to full-duplex  
or half-duplex. If a port operates at half-duplex, the switch sends a collision  
(also called backpressure) which causes the transmitting device to wait. If  
the port operates at full-duplex, the switch sends out an IEEE 802.3x PAUSE  
frame. You can enable or disable flow control for each port on the 460T  
switch.  
Spanning Tree Protocol  
Spanning Tree is a protocol that prevents loops within the network  
topology. A loop can occur if there is more than one path for information to  
travel between devices. The Spanning Tree Protocol works by determining  
the costof a connection. For example, if two devices are connected by two  
links, Spanning Tree uses the connection with the lowest cost and blocks  
the second connection.  
Spanning Tree prevents loops by allowing only one active path between any  
two network devices at a time. However, you can also use this behavior to  
establish redundant links between devices that can take over if the primary  
linkfails.

PC Client A

Primary Path from Client A to Server B: Switch A –> Switch C  
In this example, Client A can communicate with Server B over two different  
paths. The primary path is Path 1 because the cost of the connection  
between switches A and C is lower than the cost between switches A, B and  
C. If the primary path fails, then traffic is automatically sent over the backup  
path.

Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch  
Tagged Frames  
The802.1D(1998Edition)and802.1QspecificationspublishedbytheIEEE  
(Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) extended Ethernet  
functionality to add tag information to Ethernet frames and propagate these  
tagged frames between bridges (for example, a switch). The tag can carry  
priority information, VLAN information, or both and enables bridges to  
intelligently direct traffic across the network.  
Priority  
TheIEEE802.1D(1998Edition)specificationincorporatesIEEE802.1pand  
defines information in the frame tag to indicate a priority level. When these  
tagged packets are sent out on the network, the higher priority packets are  
transferred first. Priority packet tagging (also known as Traffic Class  
Expediting) is usually set on the LAN adapter in a PC and works with other  
elements of the network (switches, routers) to deliver priority packets first.  
The priority level can range from 0 (low) to 7 (high).  
The 460T switch can read the priority tags and forward traffic on a per port  
basis. The switch uses two priority queues per port and routes traffic to a  
queue depending on the packets tag. For example, when a packet comes  
into the switch with a high-priority tag, the switch routes the packet to its  
high-priority queue.  
Although there are eight priority levels, the 460T switch can only route a  
packet into one of the two queues. The switch maps levels 0-3 to the low  
queue (which is the default) and levels 4-7 to the high queue. If a packet is  
untagged, the switch determines the best way to send the packet.

LinkAggregation  
You can use link aggregation (sometimes known as port trunking) to  
combine from 2 to 8 (adjacent) ports so that they function as a single high-  
speed link. For example, link aggregation is useful when making connections  
between switches or to connect servers to the switch.  
You can also use link aggregation to increase the bandwidth to some  
devices. Link aggregation can also provide a redundant link for fault  
tolerance. If one link in the aggregation fails, the switch balances the traffic  
among the remaining links.  
2 ports aggregated x 100Mbps = 200Mbps link  
4 ports aggregated x 100Mbps = 400Mbps link  
To aggregate ports, you must link an anchorport to an adjacent port. The  
460T Switch supports up to four link aggregation groups (anchor ports 1, 9,  
17) for a 24-port switch and up to three link aggregation groups (anchor  
ports 1, 9) on a 16-port switch. This includes one link aggregation group for  
the two 100FX module ports.  
Guidelines  
When setting up link aggregation, remember these guidelines:  
The switch treats aggregated links as a single port. This includes  
Spanning Tree and VLANs.  
All ports share the same settings as the anchor port. You can change  
anchor port settings, but you cannot configure other ports in the link.  
When a port is configured as a member of an aggregated link, it  
immediately adopts the characteristics of the anchor port. When a port  
is no longer a member of an aggregated link, the characteristics are  
reset to the default settings (autonegotiate speed/duplex, flow control  
enabled).  
If a port is part of an aggregated link, it cannot be configured as the  
target port for a port mirror. However, a port in an aggregated link can  
serve as the source port for a port mirror.

Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch  
Virtual LANs (VLANs)  
A Virtual LAN is a logical network grouping you can use to isolate network  
traffic so members of the VLAN receive traffic only from other members.  
Creating a VLAN is the equivalent of physically moving a group of devices  
to a separate switch (creating a Layer 2 broadcast domain). The advantage  
of a VLAN is that you can reduce broadcast traffic for the entire switch, and  
increase security, without changing the wiring of your network.  
The 460T switch supports three types of VLANs: port-based, MAC-based,  
and tag-based. See Chapter 5 for more information about creating and  
configuringVLANs.  
Port-Based VLANs  
This is the simplest and most common form of VLAN. In a port-based  
VLAN, the system administrator assigns the switchs ports to a specific  
VLAN. For example, the system administrator can designate ports 2, 4, 6,  
and 9 as part of the engineering VLAN and ports 17, 19, 21, and 23 as part  
of the marketing VLAN. The advantage of port-based VLANs is that they  
are easy to configure and, because all changes occur at the switch, they are  
transparent to the users. The 460T supports up to 12 port-based VLANs. A  
port can belong to only one VLAN at a time.

If a user relocates, the system administrator reassigns the port to the new  
VLAN. Another advantage is if a hub is connected to a port that is part of a  
VLAN, all devices connected to the hub are also part of the VLAN. The  
disadvantage is that there is no way to exclude an individual device on that  
hub from becoming part of the VLAN.

Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide  
MAC-Based VLANs  
Membership in this type of VLAN is based on assigning the MAC address  
of a device to a VLAN. The advantage to this type of VLAN is that even if  
users relocate, they remain on the same VLAN as long as they stay  
connected to the same switch. The 460T switch supports up to 12 MAC-  
based VLANs.  
The disadvantage is that the initial configuration and subsequent  
administration of a MAC-based VLAN can be challenging because the  
system administrator needs to maintain lists of MAC addresses and enter  
those addresses into the switch. Another disadvantage is that MAC-based  
VLANs cannot span switches.  
MAC-based VLANs, as designed on the 460T Switch, are intended to limit  
broadcast and multicast traffic over the network. The switch relies on limiting  
broadcast traffic to constrain network visibility of network applications  
(such as TCP/IP) that rely on broadcasts (such as ARP) for station  
discovery.  
The 460T MAC-based VLANs are not intended to be a secure solution. For  
secure VLANs use either port-based or IEEE 802.1Q-based VLANs.

IEEE 802.1Q (Tag-Based) VLANs  
The third type of VLAN supported by the 460T switch is based on the IEEE  
802.1Q specification. The specification provides a uniform way to create  
VLANs within a network and enables you to create a VLAN that can also  
span across the network. Previously, VLAN implementation was vendor-  
specific so it was not possible to create a VLAN across devices from  
different vendors.  
The 802.1Q VLAN works by using a tag added to the Ethernet frames. The  
tag contains a VLAN Identifier (VID) that identifies the frame as belonging  
to a specific VLAN. These tags allow switches that support the 802.1Q  
specification to segregate traffic between devices and communicate a  
devices VLAN association across switches.  
Therearemultipleadvantagestoimplementing802.1QVLANs. First, it  
improves performance by helping to contain broadcast and multicast traffic  
across the switch. Second, ports can belong to more than one VLAN. Third,  
VLANs can span multiple switches that support the 802.1Q specification.  
Finally, it provides security and improves performance by logically isolating  
users and grouping them together. The 460T switch supports up to 256 tag-  
based VLANs.

A logical grouping can be mapped to a work group. For example, you can  
create a VLAN that groups all the users from the engineering department  
into one VLAN. This logical grouping improves performance by cutting  
down traffic that belongs to a different logical group (for example,  
marketing), improves security (engineering cant see marketing), and eases  
moves because the user doesnt have to be physically located in the same  
group to participate in the VLAN.

Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide  
On the 460T switch, overlapping VLANs can be supported by using 802.1Q-  
capable devices. However, for non-802.1Q-capable devices, overlapping  
VLANs can be supported by implementing an asymmetric VLAN on the  
switch. An asymmetric VLAN is a type of 802.1Q configuration where  
endstations send traffic on one VLAN and receive traffic on another VLAN.  
The 460T switch supports asymmetric VLANs.  
For more information about asymmetric VLANs, see http://support.intel.com  
/supportorseeIEEE802.1QSpecificationAnnexB.1.3.  
Spanning Tree and VLANs  
The 460T supports the Spanning Tree Protocol across the entire switch, not  
per VLAN. If a loop occurs in a VLAN the port is disabled and all VLAN  
traffic over that port is blocked.  
The following diagram shows an example. Both Switch 1 and Switch 2 have  
two port-based VLANs configured. Crossover cables connect the  
ENG_VLANonSwitch1toENG_VLANonandSwitch2. Crossovercables  
also connect the MRKT_VLAN on Switch 1 to the MRKT_VLAN on Switch  
2. When Spanning Tree is enabled, the redundant link between the  
MRKT_VLANs is blocked and those VLANs can no longer communicate.  
When the switch is running 802.1Q VLANs, Spanning Tree is required for  
GVRP(GARPVLANRegistrationProtocol) toworkproperly.

GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)  
Because IEEE 802.1Q VLANs can span networks, managing changes to the  
VLAN poses a challenge for network administrators. The GARP VLAN  
Registration Protocol (GVRP) provides a dynamic mechanism for switches to  
share topology information and manage changes with other switches. The  
network administrator does not have to manually propagate VLAN  
configuration information across switches.  
GARP (Generic Attribute Registration Protocol) is defined by the IEEE  
802.1D (1998 Edition) specification and is the mechanism used by switches  
and end nodes to propagate VLAN configurations across the network  
domain. GVRP uses GARP as a foundation to propagate VLAN  
configurations to other switches. Devices that support GVRP transmit their  
updates to a known multicast address that all GVRP-capable devices  
monitor for information updates.  
Sending GVRP messages between switches accomplishes the following  
tasks:  
Dynamically adds or removes a port from participating in a VLAN.  
Sends updates about the switchs own VLAN configuration to  
neighboring GVRP-capable devices.  
Integrates dynamic and static VLAN configurations within the same  
switch. Static VLAN configurations are created by the user on the  
switch for devices that dont support GVRP.  
Note: dynamically created VLANs are not saved in the switchs memory.  
When the device sending out the GVRP updates is disabled or rebooted, the  
dynamicVLANisremoved.

InternetGroupMulticastProtocol(IGMP)  
Generally, the switch broadcasts multicast traffic to all ports. For multicast  
traffic based on the TCP/IP using the IGMP protocol, the switch can  
optimize the broadcasting of multicast traffic by forwarding multicast traffic  
only to ports that require it.  
IGMP Snooping is a feature that allows the switch to forward multicast  
traffic intelligently. The switch snoopsthe IGMP query and report  
messages and forwards traffic only to the ports that request the multicast  
traffic. This prevents the switch from broadcasting the traffic to all ports  
and possibly affecting network performance.  
IGMP requires a router that detects multicast groups on its subnets and  
keeps track of group membership. Note that multicasting is not connection  
oriented, so data is delivered to the requesting hosts on a best-effort level  
of service.

Viewing RMON information  
The remote monitoring (RMON) specification extends SNMP functionality to  
look at traffic patterns on the network instead of merely looking at the traffic  
for an individual device. The following RMON groups are supported:  
Group 1 (Statistics): Monitors utilization and error statistics for each  
network segment (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps).  
Group2(History):Recordsperiodicstatisticalsamplesfromvariables  
available in the statistics group.  
Group 3 (Alarms): Enabless you to set a sampling interval and alarm  
thresholds for statistics. When a threshold is passed, the switch creates  
an event. For example, you might set an alarm to create an event if switch  
utilizationexceeds30%.  
Group 9 (Events): Provides notification and tells the switch what to do  
when an event occurs on the network. Events can send a trap to a  
receiving station or place an entry in the log table, or both. For example,  
when the switch experiences an RMON Event, it sends out an Alarm.  
The switch also keeps a log that shows a list of the RMON Events and  
RMON Alarms that have occurred on the switch.  
To view RMON statistics  
1
Right-click the icon for the switch in the Device Tree and then point to  
RMON.  
2
Click the RMON option you want to view.  
To access RMON features, you can use LANDesk Network Manager or an  
SNMP application that supports RMON such as OpenView. For more  
information about using RMON to monitor the switch, see the Intel Device  
ViewHelp.

LinkAggregation  
Use link aggregation to group up to eight consecutive ports into a single  
dedicated connection. This feature can expand bandwidth between devices  
on the network, such as another switch or a server.  
When configuring link aggregation  
between two 460T switches, you  
must connect anchor port to  
anchor port, and member port to  
member port.  
The anchor port is the base port in a link aggregation, and it is the only port  
in the aggregation with configurable settings. All member ports in an  
aggregation take on the settings of the anchor port.  
Only consecutive ports, starting from the anchor port, can be grouped in a  
link aggregation. For example, ports 1, 2, and 3 are a valid link aggregation;  
ports 2, 4, and 7 are not.  
On the Web Device Manager switch faceplate graphic, a link aggregation is  
shown with its ports outlined in magenta.

Static MAC Addresses  
The MAC address table stores all the MAC addresses known by the switch.  
The switch uses this table for forwarding traffic to specific devices to avoid  
broadcasting traffic to every port for communication.  
There are two ways to add addresses to the MAC address table:  
The switch can learn addresses and add them dynamically. Dynamic  
entries remain in the table only while the associated node is active. They  
are deleted if the node is inactive for longer than a specified period of  
time, known as the age-out time; the default is 300 seconds.  
You can manually add MAC addresses to the table. These are called  
static addresses, because they remain in the table until you remove  
them, even if the associated node is inactive or taken off the network.  
To add a static MAC address to the address table

Configure Advanced Switch Settings  
Description  
LOCATION  
Auto-partition capability on all ports: If this option is enabled, the switch  
partitions the port when more than 61 consecutive collisions occur while  
receiving data. The first time the switch receives a good packet it  
unpartitions the port. If a port is partitioned the switch can transmit data  
over this port, but cannot receive data.  
Main Menu  
Configure Device  
Switch Settings  
Advanced Switch Settings  
Head of Line (HOL) Blocking Prevention: If this option is enabled it  
prevents the forwarding of data to a port that is blocked. Normally, when  
the switch sends traffic to a port it goes to the ports transmit queue and is  
sent out. If the ports transmit queue is already busy trying to send out  
data, the switch places the waiting traffic in the buffer memory until the port  
is ready to send it out.  
However, if the ports transmit queue remains full, the switch fills up more  
of the buffer with traffic waiting to be sent on that port. HOL blocking  
assumes that it is better to drop the traffic waiting in the buffer than to  
continue using more memory and impacting performance across all the  
ports.  
High-priority packet service ratio: Determines how many high-priority  
packets the switch sends before sending a low-priority packet. For example,  
a ratio of 8 high:1 low means that the switch sends out eight high-priority  
packets before sending out one low-priority packet.

Cost: Type in a number from 1 to 65535 (default is 10). This value is used

The higher the cost of a port, the lower the chance it will be used to forward  
traffic. When possible, assign a port a low cost if it is connected to a fast  
network segment.  
Priority: Type in a number from 0 to 255 (default is 128) to set the ports  
priority in the spanning tree. The higher the value, the lower the chance oit  
will be used as the root port. If two ports on the switch have the same  
priority value, the spanning tree uses the port with the lowest number. For  
example, the spanning tree would choose port 1 over port 4 if they both had  
the same priority setting.

Configure IGMP Snooping  
Description  
LOCATION  
IGMP Snooping (Internet Group Management Protocol) allows the switch  
to forward multicast traffic intelligently. The switch snoopsthe IGMP  
query and report messages and forwards traffic only to the ports that  
request the multicast traffic. This prevents the switch from broadcasting the  
traffic to all ports and possibly affecting network performance.  
Main Menu  
Configure Device  
Forwarding and Filtering  
IGMP Snooping  
IGMP requires a router that learns about the presence of multicast groups  
on its subnets and keeps track of group membership. Remember that  
multicasting is not connection oriented, so data is delivered to the  
requesting hosts on a best-effort level of service.  
NOTE  
If tag-based (IEEE 802.1Q) or port-  
based VLANs are currently run-  
ning, you must enable IGMP  
snooping for each VLAN. The  
switch supports up to 12 VLAN  
IGMP snooping sessions.  
VLAN Name (port-based or tag-based VLANs only): The VLAN for which  
IGMP snooping is enabled. You can also enable IGMP snooping for a  
VLAN in the Configure VLAN screen.  
IGMP Snooping state: Use the z to enable or disable IGMP  
Snooping.  
IGMP Snooping age-out timer: Specify the acceptable time (in seconds)  
between IGMP queries, starting when the switch last received an IGMP  
query from the multicast server. The default time is 300 seconds. A query  
allows the server to determine which network hosts are (or want to be) part  
of the IP multicast group, and are configured and ready to receive traffic for  
the given application.

Port-based VLANs  
Description  
LOCATION  
Main Menu  
Port-based VLANs are the simplest type of VLAN. You can use a port-  
based VLAN to create multiple VLANs each with its own broadcast domain  
and member ports. For example, if port 5 is in VLAN_1 and port 10 is in  
VLAN_2 the two ports cannot communicate with each other even though  
they are part of the same switch. A port can be a member of only one port-  
based VLAN. Any port that is not a member of a user-defined VLAN is a  
member of the DEFAULT_VLAN.

Security considerations  
MAC-based VLANs, as designed on the 460T switch, are meant to limit  
broadcast and multicast traffic over the network. The switch relies on  
limiting broadcast traffic to constrain network visibility of network  
applications (such as TCP/IP) that rely on broadcasts (such as ARP) for  
station discovery. The 460T MAC-based VLANs are not intended to be a  
secure solution. For secure VLANs use either port-based or IEEE 802.1Q-  
based VLANs.

Untagged traffic is ordinarily assigned to VLAN 1 (the DEFAULT_VLAN),  
which includes all ports on the switch. However, if you want to send  
untagged traffic on a port other than the default VLAN, you can assign a  
different PVID.  
For example, if you set a ports PVID to 5, all untagged traffic on the port  
is assigned to VID 5.  
PVID: Sets the PVID for untagged devices. This is used for incoming  
traffic from an untagged device.

Configuring 802.1Q VLANs  
Setting up a 802.1Q VLAN is a two-step process: create a VLAN on the  
switch, assigning member ports to it, then set up tagging properly for your  
attached devices. For those devices that dont support tagging an extra  
configuration step is required.  
NOTE  
You must determine which devices  
on your network support tag-  
based VLANs and which do not,  
before you start this procedure.  
Step 1: Create an 802.1Q VLAN and add ports  
1
On the Main Menu, select Configure VLAN.  
Note: Make sure the switchs current VLAN operation mode is set to  
IEEE802.1QVLAN.ForinformationaboutchangingtheVLAN  
operation mode, see Configure VLAN Operation Mode.

SelectCreateanIEEE802.1QVLANandpressE.  
Type a name for the new VLAN (no spaces) and press E.  
Type a VLAN ID and press E. The ID number can be any number  
from 2 to 4094.  
5
Determine if you want to allow IGMP Snooping on this VLAN. This is  
important because the switch can support more 802.1Q VLANs than the  
maximum of 12 IGMP Snooping sessions available.  
6
7
Select ports to add to the VLAN. Use z to toggle the  
Member field to Yes.  
Select the NEXT button and press E.  
Step 2: Configure tagging for member ports  
If the device on a particular port does not support tags, configure that port as  
untagged. Configuring a device as untagged ensures that the switch removes  
tags from packets before they leave the switch for the device. If you  
configure a port as untagged, proceed to step 3 (Configure VLAN for  
untagged devices) when you are finished with this step.  
1
Press z to select Tag or Untag for each port that is a member of  
the VLAN.  
2
Select the DONE button and press E.  
If you configured any of the ports in the VLAN as Untagged, proceed to  
step 3 to configure ports for untagged devices and associate those ports with  
a PVID (port VLAN ID).

Using Local Management  
Step 3: Configure VLAN for untagged devices  
Even if the device attached to the switch doesnt support 802.1Q tags it is  
still possible for the device to participate in the VLAN. When  
communicating with untagged devices the switch:  
Determineshowtoforwarduntaggedtraffic.Foruntaggedtraffic,the  
switch assigns a default VID to the incoming traffic from the untagged  
device. Normally, all untagged traffic received on the switch is assigned a  
VLANID=1ortheDEFAULT_VLAN.YoucanchangethisPVIDtotheVID  
of the VLAN you want the port to use.  
Strips 802.1Q tags before sending traffic to the untagged device. When the  
switch needs to send traffic from a port to an untagged device, it strips the  
802.1Q tag. Otherwise the untagged device may not understand how to  
process the VID tag.

port 7.  
Type the VID of the VLAN you want the port to belong to and press  
E. This is the same ID number you entered in step 1.  
Select APPLY and press E to activate the changes.  
By specifying a VID you set the switch to assign a particular VID to any  
incoming traffic it receives on that port.

Configure VLAN ID for Untagged Traffic  
Description  
LOCATION  
Use this screen to set up the switch to manage incoming packets that do  
not contain IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags or priority-tagged traffic (packets with  
a VID of zero). This applies to ingress traffic only; it does not apply to  
outbound traffic.  
Main Menu  
Configure VLAN  
Configure Port VLAN ID...  
Untagged traffic is ordinarily assigned to VLAN 1 (the DEFAULT_VLAN),  
which includes all ports on the switch. However, if you dont want to send  
untagged traffic on a port to the default VLAN, you can assign a different  
PVID.  
For example, if you set a ports PVID to 5, all untagged traffic on the port is  
assigned to VID 5even if the port does not belong to that VLAN.  
PVID: Type the VID of the existing 802.1Q VLAN where you want to send  
untagged traffic.  
APPLY: Applies the changes on this page.

Configure VLAN  
GVRP/IngressFilterSettings  
GVRP: Enables the switch to create VLANs dynamically. Use the z  
to toggle the action for each port.  
<Enabled>: The switch monitors traffic on this port for GVRP requests  
from network nodes. If a GVRP-enabled device sends a request to this  
port, the switch creates a VLAN dynamically and adds the requesting  
device to the new VLAN. This is the default setting.  
NOTE  
<Disabled>: The switch ignores GVRP requests in incoming packets on  
this port.  
In order for GVRP to work, the  
port must be connected to a  
switch that supports GVRP.  
Ingress Filtering: Enables the switch to filter incoming packets based on  
VLAN membership. Use the z to toggle the action for each port.  
<Enabled>: Incoming packets belonging to a specific VLAN are  
forwarded only if the port belongs to that VLAN. This is the default  
setting.  
<Disabled>: All packets coming into the port are forwarded, regardless  
of the ports VLAN membership.

Appendix A:  
Technical Info  
What is a configuration file?  
A configuration file is an ASCII text file that contains initialization  
information and configuration settings for the switch specified by the  
network administrator. The switch’s configuration file (.CFG) can be up to 10  
KB in size and is stored on a central server where it is downloaded into the  
hub using TFTP.  
A
You can use a text editor like Microsoft Windows* Notepad to make  
changes to the configuration file. The switch interprets file lines beginning  
with the pound (#) sign as comments. It interprets all other lines as  
commands. When the switch initializes, it uses this file to configure  
parameters like port speed, port security, and SNMP trap receivers.  
Use of a standard configuration file can make managing multiple switches  
much simpler. Instead of requiring a network administrator to make changes  
to each manually, the switch uses the file to configure itself.

Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide  
Troubleshooting/FAQs  
I booted the switch, and the status LED stays orange. Is  
something wrong?  
By default, the switch is in BootP mode, and the LED stays orange while  
the switch waits for an IP address from the BootP server. In order to  
proceed with the boot, either bypass the BootP phase (refer to the Quick  
Start guide for instructions), or manually assign an IP address.  
If the switch doesn’t receive an IP address from the BootP server within  
ten minutes, it will continue the boot process as normal.  
How can I set the speed or duplex on individual ports?  
Normally the switch handles all connections automatically but if you  
need to force speed or duplex, (for example, to accommodate older  
devices that don’t support autonegotiation) use the Local Management or  
Web Device View.  
When I set the 460T to autonegotiate with flow control enabled  
and try to connect to another device, there is no link. Why?  
Check the settings of the other device and disable flow control on the  
switch. If you want to use flow control on the port, force the speed,  
duplex, and flow control settings so that they match.  
I’ve connected the cable but the left LED (link) is off. Why?  
• Remove the cable and plug it in again. Wait up to six seconds for a link.  
• Make sure you’re using the correct type of cable (straight-through–MDI  
or crossover–MDI-X) for the device you want to connect to. If you’re  
using the wrong cable, the link LED will not turn on.  
• Make sure the device you’ve connected to a port is a 10Base-T or  
100Base-TX device. The 460T switches don’t support 100Base-T4  
devices running at 100 Mbps. However, they do support T4 devices  
running at 10 Mbps.  
• Check the speed and duplex settings on the PC’s network adapter.  
• The cable may be defective.  
The port’s left LED (link) is on but I’m not seeing any activity  
when I try to ping a device on that port. Why?  
• The port might be disabled through management. Go into the Local  
Management or Web Device view to enable the port and try pinging the  
device again.  
• The port might be partitioned (auto-disabled). This condition is usually  
caused by a malfunctioning network adapter or an overloaded network  
segment. The switch waits until it stops receiving collisions then clears  
the port automatically.

Technical Information  
After I connect to Local Management I see a blank screen.  
Why?  
• Make sure you are using a null modem cable (included).  
• Check the settings in your terminal program. They should be set to  
9600 baud, 8 data bits, No parity, 1 stop bit, and No flow control.  
• Try pressing c + R to force the screen to refresh.  
I keep getting an intermittent loss of link. (or data is not being  
transmitted) Why?  
You may be using the wrong grade of cable. The wrong cable can cause  
erratic performance and you may eventually lose the connection  
between the port and the attached device.  
• Check the duplex setting for the device connected to the port. You may  
have to use the Local Management or Web Device Manager to force  
the port to half or full duplex.  
• A cable segment somewhere in your collision domain may be too long.  
Make sure none of your UTP cabling is longer than 100 meters.  
• Check the Ethernet cable pairs. The TX pairs (pins 1 and 2) and the RX  
pairs (pins 3 and 6) should be twisted pairs. See diagram in page 10.  
I created a tag-based VLAN, and I have tag-capable LAN  
adapters in my PCs, but I can still communicate with devices  
outside the VLAN. Why?  
Check to make sure that you have assigned a VID to the PC. If you don’t  
assign a VID to the NIC in the PC it will behave as an untagged device.  
The default VID for untagged devices=1 so all untagged PCs will be a  
memberoftheDEFAULT_VLAN.  
Locating MIB files  
If you use a MIB browser, you can configure or view statistics for the  
switch. You can find these switch MIB files at the Intel Customer Support  
Web site at http://support.intel.com/support/express/switches.  
• intel.mib  
• int_pbrd.mib  
• int_qprd.mib  
• int_gen.mib  
• int_s460.mib  
When compiling the MIBs into an SNMP-compliant management  
application, compile the intel.mib first then compile the int_gen.mib,  
int_s460.mib, int_pbrd.mib, and int_qprb.mib files.
