Parameter Description
Serial Port Auto
Logout Time
Select the logout time used for the console interface. This automatically logs
the user out after an idle period of time, as defined. Choose from the
following options: 2 Minutes, 5 Minutes, 10 Minutes, 15 Minutes, or Never.
The default setting is 10 minutes.
MAC Address Aging
Time
This field specifies the length of time a learned MAC Address will remain in
the forwarding table without being accessed (that is, how long a learned
MAC Address is allowed to remain idle). The default age-out time for the
Switch is 300 seconds. To change this, type in a different value representing
the MAC address age-out time in seconds. The Aging Time can be set to
any value between
10
and
1,000,000
seconds. The default setting is 300
seconds.
IGMP Snooping To enable system-wide IGMP Snooping capability select Enabled. IGMP
snooping is Disabled by default. Enabling IGMP snooping allows you to
specify use of a multicast router only (see below). To configure IGMP
Snooping for individual VLANs, use the
IGMP Snooping
page under the
IGMP folder.
GVRP Status Use this pull-down menu to Enable or
Disable GVRP on the Switch.
Telnet Status
Telnet configuration is Enabled by default. If you do not want to allow
configuration of the system through Telnet choose Disabled.
Web Status
Web-based management is Enabled by default. If you choose to disable this
by selecting Disabled, you will lose the ability to configure the system
through the Web interface as soon as these settings are applied.
Link Aggregation
Algorithm
The algorithm that the Switch uses to balance the load across the ports that
make up the port trunk group is defined by this definition. Choose MAC
Source, MAC Destination, MAC Src & Dest, IP Source, IP Destination, or IP
Src & Dest (See the Link Aggregation section of this manual).
