Set Up a Static Router Port for IGMP Snooping
If your network does not include a device that sends IGMP queries, the switch cannot discover the router
port dynamically. (The router port is a port on a device in the network that performs IGMP snooping in the
network.) In this situation, select one port on the switch as the dedicated static router port for IGMP snooping,
allowing all IGMP Join and Leave messages in the network to be forwarded to this port.
To set up a static router port for IGMP snooping:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the switch or to the
switch directly through an Ethernet cable.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the switch.
The login page displays.
3. Enter the switch password.
The default password is password. The password is case-sensitive.
The HOME page displays.
4. From the menu at the top of the page, select SWITCHING.
The Quality of Service (QoS) page displays.
5. From the menu on the left, select MULTICAST.
The MULTICAST page displays.
6. From the menu in the IGMP Snooping Static Router Port section, select a specific port as the router
port or select Any to let IGMP Join and Leave messages be sent to every port on the switch.
Typically, the uplink port (that is, the port that is connected to your router or to the device that provides
your Internet connection) serves as the router port.
7. Click the APPLY button.
Your settings are saved.
Set Up Static Link Aggregation
Static link aggregation on the switch allows you to combine multiple Ethernet ports into a single logical link.
Your network devices treat the aggregation as if it were a single link. Depending on how link aggregation is
set up in your network, the link supports either increased bandwidth (a larger pipe) or fault tolerance (if one
port fails, another one takes over).
The switch supports two static LAGs with up to four ports each.That means that one static LAG can support
a link of up to 4 Gbps.
The switch does not support Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP).Note
