To enable or disable the LLR (Link Loss Return) function of the device.  
LLR Mode  
The fiber ports of the Web Smart Media Converter have been designed with an  
LLR function for troubleshooting a remote connection. Refer to LLR description at  
next page for more detail.  
The default value is Enable.  
Broadcast Storm Control  
To prevent the broadcast storm, the converter implements a broadcast storm control mechanism. When this  
function is enabled, a port begins to drop incoming broadcast packets if the received broadcast packet counts reach  
the threshold defined in the field. The screen in Figure 4-9 appears.  
Figure 4-9 Broadcast Storm Control Configuration screen  
Class of Services and WRR priority  
The converter implements two levels of priority queues, high priority and low priority. The priority for each packet is  
based on 802.1Q VLAN tag scheme. Each incoming packet is mapped to either a high priority queue or a low  
priority queue. When no CoS function is enabled, the first-in/ first-out forwarding method is used. The output  
schedule mode and weight function for the ratio of high/low priorities is defined in the Class of Service field.  
-21-  
When multiple CoS schemes are enabled, the data packet is treated as the high priority as long as any one of three  
CoS schemes is mapped to “high”.  
Take the following example for detail explanation.  
If a port is set as a low priority port, when it receives a packet, which embeds with high priority VLAN tag, this packet  
will be forwarded as a high priority packet. In the other words, the priority of a packet would be set to high if any of  
two CoS schemes is interpreted as the high priority.  
Figure 4-10 Class of Services Configuration screen  
LLR Mode - Link Loss Return (LLR)  
The fiber ports of the Web Smart Media Converter have been designed with an LLR function for troubleshooting a remote  
connection. LLR works in conjunction with LLCF.  
When LLR is enabled*, the port’s transmitter shuts down when its receiver fails to detect a valid receive link. LLR should  
only be enabled on one end of the link and is typically enabled on either the unmanaged or remote device.  
The diagram below shows a typical network configuration with a good link status using Smart Media Converter for remote  
connectivity. Note that LLR is enabled as indicated in the diagram.

LED lit = established link LED unlit = no link  
If one of the optical conductors is bad(as shown in the diagram box below), the converter with LLR enabled will return a  
no-link condition to its link partner. With LLCF default, the no-link condition is carried forward to the switch/hub where a  
trap is generated to the management station, and the administrator can then determine the source of the loss.

5. TROUBLESHOOTING  
This chapter contains information to help you solve problems. If the media converter is not functioning properly, make sure  
the media converter was set up according to instructions in this manual.  
The Link LED is not lit  
Solution:  
1.  
2.  
Check the cable connection and remove duplex mode of the converter.  
Check the port configuration of the link partner; make sure the two side devices with the same link  
configuration.  
Performance is bad  
Solution:  
Check the full duplex status of the device. If the device is set to full duplex and the partner is set to half duplex, then  
the performance will be poor.  
100Base-TX port link LED is lit, but the traffic is irregular  
Solution:  
Check that the attached device is not set to dedicate full duplex. Some devices use a physical or software switch to  
change duplex modes. Auto-negotiation may not recognize this type of full-duplex setting.  
Why the device doesn’t connect to the network  
Solution:  
Check the LNK/ACT LED on the device .Try another port on the connected device. Make sure the cable is installed  
properly Make sure the cable is the right type Turn off the power. After a while, turn on power again.  
How to deal forgotten password situation of device?  
Solution:  
1.  
If the device is implemented with “Reset” button, press the button at the front panel about 10 seconds. After the  
device be rebooted. Login the device Web Management page with default user name and password.
