EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
1.1.2 Features  
„ Advanced Architecture  
The design for the ES4710BD core routing switch is fully distributed architecture. With a powerful  
ASIC chip dedicated to high-speed route lookup and traffic forwarding through “longest-match” and  
“packet-by-packet” mode, the switch ensures enhanced forwarding performance and scalability.  
ES4710BD can effectively block network viruses such as "Code red”, "Worm.Blaster” and  
"Worm.Sasser” etc, and is a great choice for large scale networks with busy transactions and  
complex traffic, therefore meeting the metro-trend for Ethernet.  
„ Interfaces  
ES4710BD provides 10 slots, and can be configured in Primary controller-Primary Backup mode  
with 2 management modules and 8 network modules, or Single controller mode with 1 management  
module and 8 network modules.  
„ Carrier Class Reliability  
To meet the strict requirements for device reliability of carrier class networks and to ensure 100%  
uptime of network cores, the design of ES4710BD enables redundancy for all critical parts, such as  
power supply, management modules and network links, all modules are also hot-swappable, and  
working temperatures of all parts are monitored real-time.  
„ Support for 10G Ethernet  
10Gb Ethernet (10GbE) is a leap of Ethernet in both speed and distance, in which full-duplex  
technology is employed, thus avoiding low-speed, half-duplex CSMA/CD protocol. Moreover,  
10GbE maintains the essence of the original Ethernet model, therefore can integrate with the current  
Ethernet environment seamlessly. ES4710BD supports both single port and multi-port 10Gb fiber  
modules, providing wider bandwidth and more powerful processing capacity, therefore simplifying  
network structure and lowering network infrastructure cost. It is an ideal solution for MAN/WAN  
applications.  
„ MAC Address Control  
In addition to the standard MAC address dynamic learning, ES4710BD introduces several MAC  
table-based management functions. MAC address binding achieves secure access through the curb  
of connecting MAC address on the ports. The MAC filtering function can screen unauthorized  
access devices through MAC address filtering.  
„ VLAN Configuration  
ES4710BD support standard IEEE802.1Q VLAN, port-based VLAN and GVRP VLAN.  
IEEE802.1Q VLAN can divide ports into up to 4094 VLAN groups. When IEEE802.1Q VLAN  
tagging is used, cross-switch VLAN grouping can be enabled to manage broadcasting traffic, offer  
better security and improved network performance. GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP)  
based VLANs can achieve dynamic VLAN registration via GARP (Generic Attribute Registration  
Protocol), therefore a more flexible VLAN application results by reducing VLAN configurations  
due to less VLAN configuration changes.

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
„ Layer 3 Forwarding  
Layer 3 forwarding is the forwarding of Layer 3 packets (IP packet) across VLANs, which  
ES4710BD uses switch chip hardware to forward IP packets, facilitating the on-chip host route  
entries and default routing table entries, allowing IP packets to be forwarded at full wire speed.  
„ Layer 3 Routing Protocols  
ES4710BD supports static routing (RIP, OSPF and BGP routing protocols) and Multicast Protocols  
(IGMP, IGMP Snooping, PIM-SM, PIM-DM and DVMRP) and MPLS, MPLS VPN, MPLS TE,  
Policy Routing, IPv6, Load Balance and Firewall etc.  
„ QoS  
ES4710BD supports various QoS policies. It provides 8 priority queues for each port with  
bandwidth that can be individually set. WRR/SP/SWRR scheduling are also supported. Traffic can  
be sorted by ports, VLAN, DSCP, IP precedence and ACL, etc. By assigning different DSCP, IP  
priorities and bandwidth, different service quality for voice, data and video transmissions can be  
achieved.  
„ ACL  
ES4710BD supports standard and extended ACLs. ACL is an IP packets filtering mechanism  
employed by switches, providing network traffic control by granting or denying access through the  
switches, and thus effectively safeguarding the security of networks. ES4710BD can filter inbound  
IP-based traffic by source/destination IP/Mac addresses, IP protocol types, TCP/IP port numbers, IP  
Precedence and ToS information.  
„ IEEE802.1x Access Authentication  
ES4710BD supports port-based IEEE802.1x access authentication. Access authentication can be  
managed by number of client per port and dynamic secure authentication based on MAC addresses.  
The combination of the IEEE802.1x authentication methods and Edge-Core authentication billing  
products will provide a complete IEEE802.1x access authentication and billing solution, well  
satisfying our customers’ requirements on access, authentication and billing management with  
guaranteed network security and charging.  
„ Spanning Tree  
ES4710BD provides support for IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), IEEE 802.1w Rapid  
Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), and IEEE802.1s Multiple Spanning Tree Protocol (MSTP).  
Spanning-Tree Protocol is a link management protocol that provides path redundancy while  
preventing undesirable loops in the network.  
„ Bandwidth Management (Port bandwidth Limit)  
ES4710BD features upstream and downstream bandwidth management for both, enabling different  
access bandwidth to be specified according to user levels. Each port can be assigned with different  
bandwidth to meet the management demands of Access networks.  
„ Trunk Port  
Trunk port of IEEE802.3ad is supported by ES4710BD. A Trunk group of 2 to 8 ports can be  
established for link redundancy and load balance.

„ IGMP Snooping  
ES4710BD supports IGMP Snooping based on multi-casting applications enabling various  
multi-cast services (e.g. multimedia playback, remote education and recreation) in an access  
network with lowered network traffic.  
„ Broadcast Storm Control  
ES4710BD can effectively prevent broadcast storms from wasting bandwidth with packet level  
Broadcast Storm Control function, resulting in improved overall system performance.  
„ Port Mirroring  
ES4710BD supports Port Mirroring, which is used to mirror the inbound and/or outbound traffic on  
specific port(s) to another port to gather related statistics, which is useful in troubleshooting and  
traffic monitoring.  
„ DHCP Server, Relay and Client  
ES4710BD supports a DHCP Server. It can dynamically assign IP addresses to hosts or MAC  
addresses, and specified IP addresses to implement MAC-IP binding.  
„ RADIUS

equipment can ensure that the surface temperature of the device will not exceed the 50°C to 80°C,  
the highest temperature allowable.  
The switch uses fan assemblies to disperse heat, with the air flow being drawn in through the bottom  
section and out through the upper section to facilitate air circulation, so that the switch can maintain  
normal operation under specified environmental conditions. Three fan trays are attached to the fan  
tray slots above the board rack, and ventilation is provided via 6 axial fans that pump out air. Fan  
trays are hot swappable for maintenance, their status are indicated by the FAN indicators on the  
main switch panel. In addition, dust gauze is provided under the board rack for filtering the air  
circulating through the rack. The dust gauze can be unplugged and removed through the front for  
maintenance.

Notice  
!
!
Watch out for potential dangers, e.g. wet floors, ungrounded power lines, and worn power lines.  
Have an emergency switch installed inside the workshop, so that power can be cut off promptly  
should an accident occur.  
!
!
Do not work alone if potential dangers are present.  
On the event of an accident, take the following measures:  
1. Power down the system  
2. Make emergency calls if required  
3. Determine whether the victim requires immediate treatment and take appropriate action  
4. If possible, send someone for medical help; otherwise, consider the damage and seek help  
2.1.1 Site Requirements  
The ES4710BD must be used indoors, and have the following requirements:  
Ambient temperature: 0 ~ 40°C  
Humidity: 10% ~ 90%, non-condensing  
The ES4710BD is equipped with a fan assembly for providing the switch with an appropriate level  
of cooling; you can place the switch on a workbench or rack. Ensure the following:  
z
The rack or workbench should be well ventilated. For sufficient air circulation, it is  
recommended to mount the switch on a 19″ standard rack with sufficient spacing. Air  
conditioning is recommended in areas with high temperatures in the summer.  
z
To cool the internal circuits, the switch comes with internal fan assemblies. To maintain  
proper air circulation through the switch chassis, we recommend that you maintain a  
minimum 100mm separation between the chassis air intake or the chassis air exhaust and  
any walls. Make sure that all air intakes and exhausts on the system remain unobstructed. Do  
not stack heavy items on the switch.  
z
z
Make sure the rack or workbench are strong enough to support the weight of a fully  
configured switch.  
Make sure the rack or workbench is well grounded; if the workbench is not grounded, it  
should be placed near a grounding conductor to provide easy ground connection for the  
switch.  
2.1.2 Temperature and Humidity Requirements  
To maximize the switch’s performance and lifespan, the site should maintain a desirable temperature  
and humidity. High-humidity conditions can cause electrical resistance degradation or even electric  
leakage, degradation of mechanical properties and corrosion of internal components. Extreme low  
relative humidity may cause the insulation spacer to contract, making the fastening screw insecure.  
Furthermore, in dry environments, static electricity is liable to be produced and cause harm to  
internal circuits. Temperature extremes can cause reduced reliability and premature aging of  
insulation materials, thus reducing the switch’s working lifespan. The recommended temperature  
and humidity are shown below:

Notice  
A sample of ambient temperature and humidity should be taken at 1.5m above the floor and 0.4m in  
front of the switch rack, with no protective panel covering the front and rear of the rack.  
Short term working conditions refer to a maximum of 48 hours of continued operation and an  
annual cumulative total of less than 15 days.  
Formidable operation conditions refers to the ambient temperature and relative humidity value that  
may occur during an air-conditioning system failure, and normal operation conditions should be  
recovered within 5 hours.  
2.1.3  
Dust and Particles  
Dust is harmful to the safe operation of the ES4710BD. Dust can lead to electrostatic adherence,  
especially likely under low relative humidity, causing poor contact of metal connectors or contacts.  
Electrostatic adherence will result in not only reduced product lifespan, but also increased chance of  
communication failures. The recommended values for dust content and particle diameter in the site  
are shown below:

guidelines for preventing ESD damage:  
1. Ensure proper earth grounding of the device  
2. Perform regular cleaning to reduce dust  
3. Maintain proper temperature and humidity  
4. Always wear an ESD wrist strap and antistatic uniform when in contact with circuit boards  
2.1.5 Anti-interference Requirements  
All sources of interference, whether from the device/system itself or the outside environment, will  
affect operations in various ways, such as capacitive coupling, inductive coupling, electromagnetic  
radiation, common impedance (including the grounding system) and cables/lines ( power cables,  
signal lines, and output lines). The following should be noted:  
1. Precautions should be taken to prevent power source interruptions  
2. Provide the system with a dedicated grounding, rather than sharing the grounding with  
electronic equipment or lightning protection devices  
3. Keep away from high power radio transmitters, radar transmitters, and high frequency strong  
circuit devices  
4. Provide electromagnetic shielding if necessary  
2.1.6 Rack Configuration  
The dimensions of the ES4710BD are designed to be mounted on a standard 19’’ rack, the  
dimensions are 436mm x 797mm x 478mm (W x H x D). Please ensure good ventilation for the  
rack.  
¾
Every device in the rack will generate heat during operation, therefore vent and fans must be  
provided for an enclosed rack, and devices should not be stacked closely,.  
When mounting devices in an open rack, care should be taken to prevent the rack frame from  
obstructing the switch ventilation openings. Be sure to check the positioning of the switch after  
installation to avoid the aforementioned.  
¾

Proper grounding  
When using an AC power source, the device must be grounded with the green and yellow  
ground cables, otherwise, shock hazards may occur when insulation resistance between the  
internal power supply and the chassis degrades.  
z
Lightning protection grounding  
The lightning protection system is an independent system consisting of a lightning rod,  
conductor and connection joint with the grounding system. The grounding system usually is  
shared with the power reference grounding and green and yellow ground cable grounding.  
Lightning protection grounding is a building requirement, not a specific requirement of the  
switch.  
z
Electromagnetic compliance grounding  
This refers to the grounding to comply with switch electromagnetic compatibility requirements,  
including shielded grounding, filter grounds, noise, and interference control and level reference.  
The overall grounding requirements are the sum total of the above. Ground resistance value  
should be less than 1 ohm.  
The ES4710BD provides 2 chassis grounding posts in the lower rear chassis, marked as “GND”.  
Chassis protection grounding should be properly connected to the rack grounding connector  
The ground cabling procedures are listed below:  
Step 1: remove the nuts from the rear chassis grounding posts  
Step 2: wrap one end of the green and yellow grounding cable to the grounding posts  
Step 3: attach the grounding post nut and tighten well  
Step 4: attach the other end of the grounding cable to the rack grounding connector  
Note:  
z
The grounding cable should be made of a good conductor, and the diameter should be  
determined by the possible maximum current that may pass through.  
Bare conductor cabling is forbidden.  
z
z
Ground resistance value: the combined grounding resistance should be less than  
1 ohm.

The user can now enter commands to manage the switch. For a detailed description of commands,  
please refer to the following chapters.  
4.1.2 In-band Management  
In-band management refers to the management by logging into the switch using Telnet or  
ECview. ECview is a network management software developed by Edge-Core. In-band management  
enables management of the switch by devices attached to the switch. In the case when in-band  
management fails due to switch configuration changes, out-of-band management can be used for  
configuring and managing the switch.  
4.1.2.1 Management via Telnet  
To manage the switch with Telnet, the following conditions should be met:  
1) Switch has an IP address configured  
2) The host’s IP address (Telnet client) and the switch’s VLAN interface IP address are in the  
same network segment.  
3) If not 2), the Telnet client can connect to an IP address of the switch via other devices, such  
as a router.  
ES4710BD is a Layer 3 switch that can be configured with several IP addresses. The following  
example assumes the shipment’s default status of the switch, only VLAN1 exists in the system.  
The following describes the steps for a Telnet client to connect to the switch’s VLAN1  
interface by Telnet.

Connect with Ethernet cable  
Fig 4-7 Managing the switch by Telnet  
Step 1: Configure the IP addresses for the switch and start the Telnet function on the switch.  
First, the configuration of the host’s IP address should be within the same network segment as  
the switch’s VLAN1 interface IP address. Suppose the switch’s VLAN interface IP address is  
10.1.128.251/24, then a possible host IP address is 10.1.128.252/24. Run “ping 10.1.128.251” from  
the host to verify the result, and check for reasons if ping failed.  
The IP address configuration commands for VLAN1 interface ES4710BD are listed below.  
Before in-band management, the switch must be configured with an IP address by out-of-band  
management (i.e., Console mode), The configuration commands are as follows (All switch  
configuration prompts are assumed to be “switch” hereafter if not otherwise specified):  
Switch>  
Switch>en  
Switch#config  
Switch(Config)#interface vlan 1  
Switch(Config-If-Vlan1)#ip address 10.1.128.251 255.255.255.0  
Switch(Config-If-Vlan1)#no shutdown  
At the same time, use the command “telnet-server enable” at console method with global mode  
to start the function of Telnet server.  
The configuration commands：  
Switch>en  
Switch#config  
Switch(Config)# telnet-server enable  
Step 2: Run Telnet Client program.

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
Run the Telnet client program included in Windows with the specified Telnet target.  
Fig 4-8 Running the Telnet client program included in Windows  
Step 3: Log in to the switch  
Log in to the Telnet configuration interface. Valid login name and password are required, otherwise  
the switch will reject Telnet access. This method protects the switch from unauthorized access. If no  
authorized Telnet user has been configured, nobody can connect to the Telnet CLI configuration  
interface. As a result, when Telnet is enabled for configuring and managing the switch, username  
and password for authorized Telnet users must be configured with the following command:  
telnet-user <user> password {0|7} <password>  
Example: Assume an authorized user in the switch has the username of “test”, and password of  
“test”, the configuration procedure should like the following:  
Switch>en  
Switch#config  
Switch(Config)#telnet-user test password 0 test  
Enter valid login name and password in the Telnet configuration interface, Telnet user will be  
able to enter the switch’s CLI configuration interface. The commands used in the Telnet CLI  
interface after login are the same as in the Console interface.

4.1.2.2 Managing the Switch through ECview  
To manage the switch with ECview, the following conditions should be met:  
1) Switch has an IP address configured  
2) The host’s IP address and the switch’s VLAN interface IP address are in the same network  
segment.  
3) If not 2), the client can connect to an IP address of the switch via other devices, such as a  
router  
4) Network management is enabled  
The computer hosting ECview should be able to ping the associated IP address of Switch so  
that ECview will, upon launching, find ES4710BD to perform read/write operations. This manual  
does not include information about how to manage the switch with ECview, please refer to ECview  
User’s Guide for details.  
4.2 Management Interface  
ES4710BD provides 2 management interface: CLI (Command Line Interface) and ECview  
software. This manual will focus on the CLI interface, for information about ECview, please refer to  
ECview User’s Guide.

4.2.1 CLI Interface  
CLI interface is familiar to most users. As aforementioned, out-of-band management and Telnet  
login are all performed through CLI interface to manage the switch.  
CLI Interface is supported by Shell program, which consists of a set of configuration  
commands. Those commands are categorized according to their functions in switch configuration  
and management. Each category represents a different configuration mode. The Shell for the switch  
is described below in Fig 4-10:\

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
Telnet is a simple remote terminal protocol for remote login. Using Telnet, the user can login to  
a remote host with its IP address of hostname from his own workstation. Telnet can send the user’s  
keystrokes to a remote host and send the remote host’s output to the user’s screen through a TCP  
connection. This is a transparent service. To the user, the keyboard and monitor seem to be  
connected to the remote host directly.  
Telnet employs the Client-Server mode, the local system is the Telnet client and the remote  
host is the Telnet server. ES4710BD can be either the Telnet Server or the Telnet client.  
When ES4710BD is used as the Telnet server, the user can use the Telnet client program  
included in Windows or the other operating systems to login to ES4710BD, as described earlier in  
the In-band management section. As a Telnet server, ES4710BD allows up to 5 telnet client TCP  
connections.  
As Telnet client, ES4710BD uses telnet command under the Admin Mode to allow the user to  
log in to the other remote hosts. ES4710BD can only establish TCP connections to one remote host  
at a time. If a connection to another remote host is desired, the current connection must be dropped.

5.3 Configuring Switch IPAddresses  
All Ethernet ports of ES4710BD perform layer 2 forwarding. The VLAN interface represents a  
Layer 3 interface function, which can be assigned an IP address, this is also the IP address of the  
switch. All VLAN interface related configuration commands can be configured under VLAN Mode.  
ES4710BD provides three IP address configuration methods:  
&
&
&
Manual  
BootP  
DHCP  
Manual configuration of IP address is assign an IP address manually for the switch.  
In BootP/DHCP mode, the switch operates as a BootP/DHCP client. It sends broadcast packets  
of BootPRequest to the BootP/DHCP servers. The BootP/DHCP servers then assign the address  
upon receiving the request. In addition, ES4710BD can act as a DHCP server, and dynamically  
assign network parameters such as IP addresses, gateway addresses and DNS server addresses to  
DHCP clients. DHCP Server configurations are detailed in later chapters.

5.4 Configuring SNMP  
5.4.1 Introduction to SNMP  
SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) is a standard inter-network management  
protocol widely used in computer network management. SNMP is an evolving protocol. SNMP  
v1[RFC1157] is the first version of SNMP. SNMP v1 has been adapted by vast numbers of  
manufacturers for its simplicity and easy implementation. With enhancements into both functions  
and security, SNMP developed to its second version, SNMP v2. As it is still based on SNMP v1, we  
will focus on SNMP v1. In this manual, if not otherwise specified, SNMP refers to v1.

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
SNMP protocol provide a relatively direct way of exchanging management information  
between two points in the network. SNMP employs a polling mechanism of message query  
transmitted through UDP (a connectionless transport layer protocol), and is therefore well supported  
by the existing computer networks.  
SNMP protocol works in NMS(Network Management Station)-Agent mode, thus consists of  
two parts: NMS and Agent. NMS is the workstation to run a SNMP enabled network administration  
client program and is the core in SNMP network administration. Agent is the server software  
running on the device to be managed and handles the managed objects directly. NMS handles all the  
managed objects through Agents.  
The NMS and Agent of SNMP communicate in Client/Server mode with standard messages,  
the NMS sends requests and the Agent responds. There are 5 SNMP message types:  
z
z
z
z
z
Get-Request  
Get-Response  
Get-Next-Request  
Set-Request  
Trap  
NMS sends queries and management variable setting requests to the Agent with Get-Request,  
Get-Next-Request and Set-Request messages. Then, upon receiving the requests, the Agent replies  
with a Get-Response message. In some special situations, when network device ports Up/Down  
status or network topology changes, Agents will send Trap messages to NMS to inform the NMS of  
exceptions. NMS can also be set to alert some exceptions by enabling RMON. When preset alert  
events are triggered, Agents will send Trap messages or log the event according to these settings.  
The security mechanism of SNMP protocol is not so comprehensive, the main security method  
is the use of community strings. A Community string is a kind of access password set in the Agent.  
Read/write access permission is set for each community string in the Agent. NMS must include the  
community string in the packets sent to Agent, otherwise it won’t be granted corresponding  
read/write permission to access the Agent.  
5.4.2 Introduction to MIB  
The network administrative information that NMS can access is well defined and organized in a  
Management Information Base (MIB). MIB is a accurate definition to the information that can be  
accessed by network administrative protocols. It takes a layered and structured form, so defined  
management information can be obtained from monitored network devices. ISO ASN.1 defines a  
tree structure for MIB, each MIB organizes all the available information with this tree structure,  
each node contains an OID (Object Identifier) and a brief text description about the node. OID is a  
set of integers divided by periods, it identifies the node and can be used to locate the node in a MIB  
tree structure, as show in the figure below:

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
Fig 5-1 ASN.1 tree instance  
In this figure, the OID of object A is 1.2.1.1. NMS can find this object without ambiguity through  
the object’s unique OID to get the standard variable contained in the object. MIB will define a set of  
standard variables for monitored network devices according to this structure.  
If the variable information inside Agent MIB needs to be browsed, MIB browsing software  
needs to be run in NMS, such as the MIB browser included in ECview. MIBs in the Agent usually  
consists of public MIB and private MIB. The public MIB contains public network management  
information that can be accessed by all NMS; private MIB contains property information specific to  
all the devices. Device manufacturer support is required for NMS to browse and manage the private  
MIB.  
MIB-I [RFC1156] is the first implementation of SNMP public MIB, and was replaced by  
MIB-II [RFC1213]. MIB-II expanded MIB-I but kept its OID of MIB tree. MIB-II contains many  
sub-trees, referred to as groups. Objects in these groups cover all the functional domains in network  
management. NMS obtains corresponding network management information by visiting the MIB of  
the SNMP Agent.  
ES4710BD can operate as a SNMP Agent, and supports both SNMP v1 and v2c, basic MIB-II,  
RMON public MIB and other related public MIBs such as BRIDGE MIB.  
5.4.3 Introduction to RMON  
RMON is the most important expansion to the standard SNMP basic architecture. RMON is a  
set of MIB definitions used to define standard network monitoring functions and interfaces, and  
enabling communication between SNMP management terminals and remote monitors. RMON  
provides a highly efficient method to monitor actions inside the subnets.  
RMON’s MIB consists of 10 groups, ES4710BD support the most frequently used groups: 1, 2,  
3, 9

Statistics: Maintains basic utilization and error statistics for each subnet monitored by the  
Agent.  
History: Records periodical statistic samples available from Statistics.  
Alarm: Allows users to set any count or integer for sample intervals and alert thresholds for  
RMON Agent records.  
Event: A list of all events generated by RMON Agent.  
Alert depends on the implementation of Event. Statistics and History display some current or history  
subnet statistics. Alert and Event provide a method to monitor any integer data change in the  
network, and provide some alerts upon exceptions (sending Trap or record in logs).

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
1. 1. 1. 9  
1. 1. 1. 5  
Fig 5-2 SNMP Configuration Example  
The IP address of NMS is 1.1.1.5; the Switch (Agent) IP address is 1.1.1.9.  
Scenario 1: The NMS network administrative software uses SNMP protocol to obtain data from the  
switch.  
The configuration of the switch is listed below:  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server enable  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server community rw private  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server community ro public  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server securityip 1.1.1.5  
Thus, the NMS can use “private” as the community string to access the switch with read-write  
permission, or use “public” as the community string to access the switch with read-only permission.  
Scenario 2: NMS will receive Trap messages from the switch (note: NMS may have community  
string verification for the Trap messages, in this scenario, the NMS uses a Trap verification  
community string of “dcstrap”).  
The configuration of the switch is listed below:  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server host 1.1.1.5 dcstrap  
Switch(Config)#snmp-server enable traps

5.4.6.2 SNMP Troubleshooting Help  
In configuring and using SNMP, the SNMP server may fail to run properly due to physical  
connection failure, wrong configuration, etc. The user should ensure the following:  
—
—
Good condition of the physical connection.  
Interface and datalink layer protocol is Up (use the “show interface” command), and the  
connection between the switch and host are intact and can be verified by ping (use “ping”  
command).  
—
—
The switch enabled SNMP Agent server function (use “snmp-server enable” command)  
Secure IP for NMS (use “snmp-server securityip” command) and community string (use  
“snmp-server community” command) are correctly configured, as if any of them fails, SNMP  
will not be able to communicate with NMS properly.  
—
If Trap function is required, remember to enable Trap (use “snmp-server enable traps”  
command), and remember to properly configure the target host IP address and community  
string for Trap (use “snmp-server host” command) to ensure Trap message can be sent to the  
specified host.  
—
—
If RMON function is required, RMON must be enabled first (use “rmon enable” command).  
During SNMP operation, if the user has any doubt, “show snmp” command can be used to  
check for statistics for SNMP traffic, or use “show snmp status” command to check for SNMP  
configuration information, or “debug snmp packet” command to enable SNMP debugging  
function and view the debug output.

5.5.2 FTP/TFTP Upgrade  
5.5.2.1 Introduction to FTP/TFTP  
FTP (File Transfer Protocol) / TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) are both file transfer  
protocols that belonging to layer four (application layer) of the TCP/IP protocol stack, used for  
transferring files between hosts and between hosts and switches. Both of them transfer files in a  
client-server model. Their differences are listed below.  
FTP builds upon TCP to provide reliable connection-oriented data stream transfer service.  
However, it does not provide file access authorization and uses simple authentication  
mechanism(transfers username and password in plain text for authentication). When using FTP to  
transfer files, two connections need to be established between the client and the server: a  
management connection and a data connection. A transfer request should be sent by the FTP client  
123  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
to establish management connection on port 21 in the server, and negotiate a data connection  
through the management connection.  
There are two types of data connections: active connection and passive connection.  
In active connection, the client transmits its address and port number for data transmission to  
the sever, the management connection maintains until data transfer is complete. Then, using the  
address and port number provided by the client, the server establishes data connection on port 20 (if  
not engaged) to transfer data; if port 20 is engaged, the server automatically generates some other  
port number to establish data connection.  
In passive connection, the client, through a management connection, notifies the server to  
establish a passive connection. The server then creates its own data listening port and informs the  
client about the port, and the client establishes a data connection to the specified port.  
As data connection is established through the specified address and port, there is a third party  
to provide data connection service.  
TFTP builds upon UDP, providing unreliable data stream transfer service with no user  
authentication or permission-based file access authorization. It ensures correct data transmission by  
sending and acknowledging mechanism and retransmission of time-out packets. The advantage of  
TFTP over FTP is that it is a simple and low overhead file transfer service.  
ES4710BD can operate as either FTP/TFTP client or server. When ES4710BD operates as a  
FTP/TFTP client, configuration files or system files can be downloaded from the remote FTP/TFTP  
servers (can be hosts or other switches) without affecting its normal operation. And file list can also  
be retrieved from the server in ftp client mode. Of course, ES4710BD can also upload current  
configuration files or system files to the remote FTP/TFTP servers (can be hosts or other switches).  
When ES4710BD operates as a FTP/TFTP server, it can provide file upload and download service  
for authorized FTP/TFTP clients, as file list service as FTP server.  
Here are some terms frequently used in FTP/TFTP.  
ROM: Short for EPROM, erasable read-only memory. EPROM is replaced by FLASH memory in  
ES4710BD.  
SDRAM: RAM memory in the switch, used for system software operation and configuration  
sequence storage.  
FLASH: Flash memory used to save system files and configuration files  
System file: including system mirror file and boot file.  
System mirror file: refers to the compressed file for switch hardware driver and software support  
program, usually refer to as IMG upgrade file. In ES4710BD, the system mirror file is allowed to  
save in FLASH only. ES4710BD mandates the name of system mirror file to be uploaded via FTP in  
Global Mode to be nos.img, other IMG system files will be rejected.  
Boot file: refers to the file that initializes the switch, also referred to as the ROM upgrade file  
(large-sized file can be compressed as IMG file). In ES4710BD, the boot file is allowed to save in  
ROM only. ES4710BD mandates the name of the boot file to be boot.rom.  
Configuration file: including start up configuration files and active configuration files. The  
distinction between a start up configuration file and an active configuration file can facilitate the  
124  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
backup and update of the configurations.  
Start up configuration file: refers to the configuration sequence used in switch start up. ES4710BD  
start up configuration file stores in FLASH only, corresponding to the so called configuration save.  
To prevent illicit file upload and easier configuration, ES4710BD mandates the name of start up  
configuration file to be startup-config.  
Active configuration file: refers to the active configuration sequence used in the switch. In  
ES4710BD, the active configuration file is stored in the RAM. In the current version, the active  
configuration sequence running-config can be saved from the RAM to FLASH by the write  
command or the copy running-config startup-config command, so that the active configuration  
sequence becomes the start up configuration file, which is called configuration save. To prevent  
illicit file upload and easier configuration, ES4710BD mandates the name of active configuration  
file to be running-config.  
Factory configuration file: The configuration file shipped with ES4710BD is in the name of  
factory-config. Run set default, write, and then restart the switch. The factory configuration file  
will be loaded to overwrite the current start up configuration file.  
5.5.2.2 FTP/TFTP Configuration  
The configurations of ES4710BD as FTP and TFTP clients are almost the same, so the  
configuration procedures for FTP and TFTP are described together in this manual.

will not affect the normal operation of other line cards.  
6.3.1 Card Hot-Insertion  
The cards are automatically powered once inserted into the slots. A blinking RUN indicator in  
1Hz indicates the card is working normally. User entry recognition by the switch will be stopped  
during the hot insertion of cards and resumed once the cards enter normal operation mode.  
6.3.2 Card Hot-Remove  
153  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
If the cards need to be replaced during normal operation, the following guidelines should be  
followed:  
‹
‹
Display a message of processing card hot removal.  
The card can be removed when the RUN indicator for the card to be removed goes  
off and the status of the card in master control board is REMOVED.  
Remove the card, the master control board will indicate the card has been removed  
(the message displayed on the panel is EMPTY).  
‹
Note: Active Master control board can not be removed online.  
6.3.3 Configuration Recover Rules  
When the switch starts up, the system will reload the information saved in the  
“StartUp-Config” configuration file from the FLASH. If the card in slot N mismatches the card type  
saved in “StartUp-Config”, then the configuration for that card will not be reloaded.  
When the system is operating normally and a user removes a card, the system keeps all the  
information configured for that card but won’t write to FLASH, the information will be lost upon  
system restart.  
When the system is operating normally and the user hot-inserts a card into a slot with a  
different card inserted previously, the system will not reload configuration; if the slot has a same  
type of card as the one inserted previously, then the system will try to reload the saved card’s  
configuration; if the saved card’s configuration is empty, the slot configuration information recorded  
in "StartUp-Config" configuration file will be loaded.  
6.3.4 Active-Standby Alternation  
The switch supports Active-Standby alternation, i.e., when master control boards are present  
and working normally, the user can switch the master control board role between Active Master and  
Standby Master. The “show slot” command can be used to determine the Active Master, non-Active  
master is the Standby Master. When performing Active-Standby alternation, the user should press  
the SWAP button of Active Master and remove the board, or just remove the Active Master directly,  
the Standby Master will then become Active Master. After Active-Standby alternation, the  
configuration of the switch will revert to the configuration saved in “startup-config”.  
6.4 WEB MANAGEMENT  
Click the Device management and open the Device Management configuration table.Users can  
proceed to manage switch modules and display module information and so on.

Chapter 7 Port Configuration  
7.1 Introduction to Port  
ES4710BD comes with line cards and master control boards. Line cards provide various  
network ports. The master control boards provide no network ports, only Console interface and  
network management port. The Console interface and network management port are used for  
out-of-band management of the switch. This chapter focuses on network ports and the network  
management port.  
Network ports are provided by the line cards. The port numbers are marked on the panels of all  
the line cards for the ES4710BD.To distinguish between ports in different line cards, the port  
number (in the sense of software) provided by the ES4710BD system is “ethernet X/Y”, where X  
stands for the slot number for the card and Y stands for the number marked in the card panel. For  
instance, a EM4700BD-12GX-SFP line card is inserted to slot 1, then port 3 of this card corresponds  
to “ethernet 1/3”. If the user needs to configure some network ports, he/she can use the “interface  
ethernet <interface-list>” command to enter the appropriate Ethernet port configuration mode,  
where <interface-list> stands for one or more ports. If <interface-list> contains multiple ports,  
special characters such as “;” or “-” can be used to separate ports, “;” is used for discrete port  
numbers and “-” is used for consecutive port numbers. Suppose an operation should be performed  
on ports 2, 3, 4, 5 of the card in slot 1 and ports 8, 9, 10 on the card in slot 3, the command would  
look like: interface ethernet 1/2-5;3/8-10. Port speed, duplex mode and traffic control can be  
configured under Ethernet Port Mode causing the performance of the corresponding network ports  
to change accordingly.  
The Network management port is located above the Console interface on the master control  
boards, marked as “Ethernet”, the software configuration name for this port is “Ethernet0”. The  
user can use the command “interface Ethernet 0” to access the network port configuration mode.  
The user can use programs such as Telnet, Web management and FTP to manage the switch through  
a Ethernet cable connected to the network management port. The network management port can  
neither perform data forwarding like the network interfaces, nor use Layer 2 protocols (like RSTP)  
and Layer 3 routing protocols, nor identify the cable type automatically (such as crossover cables  
that are required to directly connect to a PC). The network management port supports connection  
speeds of 10/100 Mbps, it can have an IP address configured in addition to properties such as speed  
and duplex mode. If the switch has 2 master control cards and both are operating normally, only the  
Ethernet port in the Active Master can be used as the network management port. When  
Active-Standby occurs, the network management port will change accordingly.

cable port first.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: The default setting for combo mode of combo ports is fiber cable port first.  
Usage Guide: The combo mode of combo ports and the port connection condition determines the  
active port of the combo ports. A combo port consist of one fiber port and a copper cable port. It  
should be noted that the speed-duplex command applies to the copper cable port while the  
negotiation command applies to the fiber cable port, they should not conflict. For combo ports, only  
one, a fiber cable port or a copper cable port, can be active at a time, and only this port can send and  
receive data normally.  
For the determination of the active port in a combo port, see the table below. The headline row in  
the table indicates the combo mode of the combo port, while the first column indicates the  
connection conditions of the combo port, in which “connected” refers to a good connection of fiber  
cable port or copper cable port to the other devices.

Note:  
&
Combo port is a conception involving the physical layer and the LLC sublayer of the datalink  
layer. The status of a combo port will not affect any operation in the MAC sublayer of the  
datalink layer and upper layers. If the bandwidth limit for a combo port is 1Mbps, then this  
1Mbps applies to the active port of this combo port, regardless of the port type being copper or  
fiber.  
&
&
If a combo port connects to another combo port, it is recommended for both parties to use  
copper-forced or fiber-forced mode.  
Run “show interface” under Admin Mode to check for the active port of a combo port The  
following result indicates if the active port for a combo port is the fiber cable port or copper  
cable port: Hardware is Gigabit-combo, active is fiber (copper).  
Example: setting ports 1/25 -28 to fiber-forced  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/25-28  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#combo-forced-mode sfp-forced  
7.2.1.2.3 flow control  
Command: flow control  
no flow control  
Function: Enables the flow control function for the port: the “no flow control” command disables  
the flow control function for the port.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: Port flow control is disabled by default.  
Usage Guide: After the flow control function is enabled, the port will notify the sending device to  
slow down the sending speed to prevent packet loss when traffic received exceeds the capacity of  
port cache. ES4710BD’s ports support IEEE802.3X flow control; the ports work in half-duplex  
mode, supporting back-pressure flow control. If flow control results in serious HOL, the switch will  
automatically start HOL control (discarding some packets in the COS queue that may result in HOL)  
to prevent drastic degradation of network performance.  
Note: Port flow control function is NOT recommended unless the users need a slow speed, low  
performance network with low packet loss. Flow control will not work between different cards in  
the switch. When enable the port flow control function, speed and duplex mode of both ends should  
be the same.  
Example: Enabling the flow control function in ports 1/1-8.  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1-8  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#flow control

Command: interface ethernet <interface-list>  
Function: Enters Ethernet Interface Mode from Global Mode.  
Parameters: <interface-list> stands for port number.  
Command mode: Global Mode  
Usage Guide: Run the exit command to exit the Ethernet Interface Mode to Global Mode.  
Example: Entering the Ethernet Interface Mode for ports 1/1, 2/4-5, 3/8.  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1;2/4-5;3/8  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#  
7.2.1.2.5 loopback  
Command: loopback  
no loopback  
Function: Enables the loopback test function in an Ethernet port; the “no loopback” command  
disables the loopback test on an Ethernet port.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: Loopback test is disabled in Ethernet port by default.  
Usage Guide: Loopback test can be used to verify the Ethernet ports are working normally. After  
loopback has been enabled, the port will assume a connection established to itself, and all traffic  
sent from the port will be received at the very same port.  
Example: Enabling loopback test in Ethernet ports 1/1 – 8  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1-8  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#loopback  
7.2.1.2.6 mdi  
Command: mdi { auto | across | normal }  
no mdi  
Function: Sets the cable types supported by the Ethernet port; the “no mdi” command sets the  
cable type to auto-identification. This command is not supported on ES4710BD line card ports of  
1000Mbps or more, these ports have auto-identification set for cable types.  
Parameters: auto indicates auto identification of cable types; across indicates crossover cable  
support only; normal indicates straight-through cable support only.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: Port cable type is set to auto-identification by default.  
Usage Guide: Auto-identification is recommended. Generally, straight-through cable is used for  
switch-PC connection and crossover cable is used for switch-switch connection.

7.2.1.2.7 name  
Command: name <string>  
no name  
Function: Sets a name for the specified port; the “no name” command cancels the setting.  
Parameters: <string> is a string, up to 32 characters are allowed.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: No name is set by default.  
Usage Guide: This command facilitates the management of the switch. The user can name the ports  
according to their usage, for example, ports 1/1-2 are used by the financial department, and so can  
be named "financial”; port 2/9 is used by the engineering department, and can be named  
“engineering”; port 3/12 connects to the server, and can be named “Servers”. Thus, the usage of the  
ports are obvious.  
Example: Naming ports 1/1-2 as “financial”  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 1/1-2  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#name financial  
7.2.1.2.8 negotiation  
Command: negotiation {on|off}  
Function: Enables/Disables the auto-negotiation function of a 1000Base-T port.  
Parameters: on to enable auto-negotiation; off to disable auto-negotiation.  
Command mode: Port configuration Mode  
Default: Auto-negotiation is enabled by default.  
Usage Guide: This command applies to 1000Base-T interface only. The negotiation command is  
not available for 1000Base-FX or 100Base-FX interface. . For combo port, this command applies to  
the 1000Base-TX port only and has no effect on 1000Base-TX port. To change the negotiation  
mode, speed and duplex mode of 1000Base-TX port, use speed-duplex command instead.  
Example: Port 1 of Switch 1 is connected to port 1 of Switch 2, the following will disable the  
negotiation for both ports.  
Switch1(Config)#interface e1/1  
Switch1(Config-Ethernet1/1)#negotiation off  
Switch2(Config)#interface e1/1  
Switch2(Config-Ethernet1/1)#negotiation off

7.2.1.2.9 rate-suppression  
Command: rate-suppression {dlf | broadcast | multicast} <packets>  
no rate-suppression {dlf | broadcast | multicast}  
Function: Sets the traffic limit for broadcasts, multicasts and unknown destination unicasts on all  
ports in the switch; the “no rate-suppression” command disables this traffic throttle function on all  
ports in the switch, i.e., enables broadcasts, multicasts and unknown destination unicasts to pass  
through the switch at line speed.  
Parameters: use dlf to limit unicast traffic for unknown destination; multicast to limit multicast  
traffic; broadcast to limit broadcast traffic. <packets> stands for the number of packets allowed to  
pass through per second for non-10Gb ports. For 10 Gb ports, the number of packets allowed to pass  
through multiplies 1,040. The valid range for both port types is 1 to 262,143.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: no limit is set by default. So, broadcasts, multicasts and unknown destination unicasts are  
allowed to pass at line speed.  
Usage Guide: All ports in the switch belong to a same broadcast domain if no VLAN has been set.  
The switch will send the abovementioned three traffics to all ports in the broadcast domain, which  
may result in broadcast storm and so may greatly degrade the switch performance. Enabling  
Broadcast Storm Control can better protect the switch from broadcast storm. Note the difference of  
this command in 10Gb ports and other ports. If the allowed traffic is set to 3, this means allow 3,120  
packets per second and discard the rest for 10Gb ports. However, the same setting for non-10Gb  
ports means to allow 3 broadcast packets per second and discard the rest.  
Example: Setting ports 8 – 10 (1000Mbps) of slot 2 to allow 3 broadcast packets per second.  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet 2/8-10  
Switch(Config-Port-Range)#rate-suppression broadcast 3  
7.2.1.2.10 shutdown  
Command: shutdown  
no shutdown  
Function: Shuts down the specified Ethernet port; the “no shutdown” command opens the port.  
Command mode: Interface Mode  
Default: Ethernet port is open by default.  
Usage Guide: When Ethernet port is shut down, no data frames are sent in the port, and the port  
status displayed when the user types the “show interface” command is “down”.  
Example: Opening ports 1/1-8.  
Switch(Config)#interface ethernet1/1-8

7.2.1.2.11 speed-duplex  
Command: speed-duplex {auto | force10-half | force10-full | force100-half | force100-full |  
{ {force1g-half | force1g-full} [nonegotiate [master | slave]] } }  
no speed-duplex  
Function: Sets the speed and duplex mode for 1000Base-TX or 100Base-TX ports; the “no  
speed-duplex” command restores the default speed and duplex mode setting, i.e., auto speed  
negotiation and duplex.  
Parameters: auto for auto speed negotiation; force10-half for forced 10Mbps at half-duplex;  
force10-full for forced 10Mbps at full-duplex mode; force100-half for forced 100Mbps at  
half-duplex mode; force100-full for forced 100Mbps at full-duplex mode; force1g-half for forced  
1000Mbps at half-duplex mode; force1g-full for forced 1000Mbps at full-duplex mode;  
nonegotiate for disable auto-negotiation for 1000 Mb port; master to force the 1000Mb port to be  
master mode; slave to force the 1000Mb port to be slave mode.  
Command mode: Port configuration Mode  
Default: Auto-negotiation for speed and duplex mode is set by default.  
Usage Guide: This command applies to 1000Base-TX or 100Base-TX ports only. speed-duplex  
command is not available for 1000Base-X port. For combo port, this command applies to the  
1000Base-TX port only and has no effect on 1000Base-X port. To change the negotiation mode of  
1000Base-X port, use negotiation command instead.  
When configuring port speed and duplex mode, the speed and duplex mode must be the same as the  
setting of the remote end, i.e., if the remote device is set to auto-negotiation, then auto-negotiation  
should be set at the local port. If the remote end is in forced mode, the same should be set in the  
local end.  
1000Gb ports are by default master when configuring nonegotiate mode. If one end is set to  
master mode, the other end must be set to slave mode. force1g-half Is not supported yet.  
Example: Port 1 of Switch 1 is connected to port 1 of Switch2, the following will set both ports in  
forced 100Mbps at half-duplex mode.  
Switch1(Config)#interface e1/1  
Switch1(Config-Ethernet1/1)#speed-duplex force100-half  
Switch2(Config)#interface e1/1  
Switch2(Config-Ethernet1/1)#speed-duplex force100-half

Parameters: <ip-address> is the IP address in decimal format; <mask> is the subnet mask in  
decimal format; [secondary] indicates the IP configured is a secondary IP address.  
Command mode: VLAN Interface Mode  
Default: No IP address is configured by default.  
Usage Guide: This command configures the IP address for VLAN interface manually. If the  
optional parameter secondary is not present, the IP address will be the primary IP of the VLAN  
interface, otherwise, the IP address configured will be the secondary IP address for the VLAN  
interface. A VLAN interface can have one primary IP address but multiple secondary IP addresses.  
Both primary IP address and secondary IP addresses can be used for SNMP/Web/Telnet  
management. In addition, ES4710BD allows IP addresses to be obtained through BootP/DHCP.  
Example: Setting the IP address of VLAN1 interface to 192.168.1.10/24.

7.2.3.2 Network Management Port Configuration Commands  
7.2.3.2.1 duplex  
Command: duplex {auto| full| half }  
Function: Sets network management port duplex mode  
Parameters: auto for auto-negotiation full-duplex mode; full for forced full-duplex mode; half  
for forced half-duplex mode.  
Command mode: Network management port configuration Mode  
Default: The default duplex mode is set to auto-negotiation.  
Usage Guide: According to IEEE 802.3, the auto-negotiation for port speed and duplex are linked.  
If the duplex setting of the port is auto-negotiation, the port speed will be set to auto-negotiation  
automatically; if the port duplex mode changes from auto-negotiation to forced full/half-duplex, the  
port speed will also become forced mode, the forced speed will be the port speed before this  
command.  
It is strongly recommended for the users to set all port speed and duplex mode to auto-negotiation,  
this can minimize protocol-related connection problems. If forced speed/duplex mode needs to be  
set, the speed/duplex mode setting of both ends must be verified to be the same.  
Example: Setting the network management port to forced full-duplex mode.

7.2.3.2.4 loopback  
Command: loopback  
no loopback  
Function: Enables the loopback test function for the network management port; the “no loopback”  
command disables the loopback test the on network management port.  
Command mode: Network management port configuration Mode  
Default: Loopback test is disabled in network management port by default.  
Usage Guide: Loopback test can be used to verify the network management port is working  
normally. After loopback has been enabled, the port will assume a connection established to itself,  
and all traffic sent from the port will be received at this very port.

7.2.3.2.6 speed  
Command: speed {auto| force10| force100}  
Function: Sets port speed  
Parameters: auto for auto-negotiation of speed; force10 for forced 10Mbps; force100 for forced  
half 100Mbps.  
Command mode: Network management port configuration Mode  
Default: Auto-negotiation for speed is set by default.  
Usage Guide: According to IEEE 802.3, the auto-negotiation for port speed and duplex are linked.  
If the port speed setting is auto-negotiation, the port duplex mode will also be set to auto-negotiation  
automatically; if the port speed changes from auto-negotiation to forced, the port duplex mode will  
also become forced full/half-duplex.  
It is strongly recommended for users to set all port speed and duplex mode to auto-negotiation, this  
can minimize protocol-related connection problems. If forced speed/duplex mode needs to be set,  
the speed/duplex mode setting of both ends must be verified to be the same.  
Example: Setting the network management port to forced 100Mbps.

7.2.4 Port Mirroring Configuration  
7.2.4.1 Introduction to Port Mirroring  
Port mirroring refers to the duplication of data frames sent/received on a port to another port.  
The duplicated port is referred to as mirror source port and the duplicating port is referred to as  
170

EES4710BD 10 Slots L2/L3/L4 Chassis Switch  
mirror destination port. A protocol analyzer (such as Sniffer) or RMON monitoring instrument is  
often attached to the mirror destination port to monitor and manage the network and diagnostic.  
ES4710BD support one mirror destination port only. The number of mirror source ports are not  
limited, one or more may be used. Multiple source ports can be within the same VLAN or across  
several VLANs. The destination port and source port(s) can be located in different VLANs.

Parameters: <session> stands for mirror session value, only 1 may be used at present;  
<interface-list> stands for mirror source port list, special characters like “-“ and “;” are supported;  
cpu slot <slotnum> stands for use the CPU of the card in the specified slot as mirror source, to  
mirroring traffic sent/received by the CPU (for debug); rx stands for traffic received by the source  
port; tx stands for traffic sent by the source port; both stands for traffic sent and received by the  
source port.  
Command mode: Global Mode  
Usage Guide: This command sets the source port for mirroring. ES4710BD does not have any limit  
on the number mirror source port(s). The sent and/or received traffic by the source port can be  
mirrored. If [rx|tx|both] keyword is not specified, it will default to both. When multiple ports are  
mirrored, their mirrored traffic direction can be different, but should be configured separately.  
Example: Setting the mirror source port to be the outgoing traffic of ports 1/1-4 and incoming  
traffic of port 3/5.  
Switch(Config)#monitor session 1 source interface ethernet 1/1-4 tx  
Switch(Config)#monitor session 1 source interface ethernet 3/5 rx  
7.2.4.3.2 monitor session destination interface  
Command: monitor session <session> destination interface <interface-number>  
no monitor session <session> destination interface <interface-number>  
Function: Specifies mirror destination port; the “no monitor session <session> destination  
interface <interface-number>” command deletes mirror destination port.  
Parameters: <session> set the mirror session value, only 1 may be used at present;  
<interface-number> sets the mirror destination port.  
Default: N/A.  
Command mode: Global Mode  
Usage Guide: Only one mirror destination port is supported by ES4710BD. It should be noted that  
the mirror destination port can not be a member of a trunk group, and it is desirable for its port  
throughput to be greater than the total sum throughput of all the mirror source ports.  
Example: Setting port 4/7 as mirror destination port.  
Switch(Config)#monitor session 1 destination interface ethernet 4/7

7.2.4.5.2 Device Mirroring Troubleshooting Help  
If a problems occurs configuring port mirroring, please check the following first for causes:  
& Whether the mirror destination port is a member of a trunk group or not, if yes, modify the  
trunk group.  
& If the throughput of mirror destination port is smaller than the total throughput of mirror  
source port(s), the destination port will not be able to duplicate all source port traffic; please  
decrease the number of source ports, duplicate traffic for one direction only or choose a port  
with greater throughput as the destination port.

7.4.2 Port Troubleshooting Help  
Here are some situations that frequently occurs in port configuration and the advised solutions:  
&
&
Two connected fiber interfaces won’t link up if one interface is set to auto-negotiation but  
the other to forced speed/duplex. This is determined by IEEE 802.3.  
The following combinations are not recommended: enabling traffic control as well as  
setting multicast limiting for the same port; setting broadcast, multicast and unknown  
destination unicast control as well as port bandwidth limiting for the same port. If such  
combinations are set, the port throughput may fall below the expected performance.  
7.5 WEB MANAGEMENT  
Click “Port configuration” to open the port configuration management table. Users can proceed to  
do port management, setup port speed, duplexes and so on.
