VLans

• VLANs (Virtual Local Area Networks) are subnetworks that allow for the grouping together of devices for improved network traffic as well as providing higher security by allowing greater control over which devices have access to each other.
• It is important to plan how you will set up your devices for each VLAN.
• Configuring VLAN on the Altronix Netway4EBT3 Series Switch:

1. Ensure the Laptop or PC being used to program the vLan settings is on a port that will be assigned to your first vLan configuration. By default, the management portion of the software is assigned to VLAN-1,
   • CAUTION: Changing VID=1, the industry-standard VLAN HOST address to any other VID address should be done with caution and performed only locally, since the change will drop the original HOST connection.
   • Local access then facilitates a physical reconnection to the respective port.
   • Note: Only this vLan network allows access to IP management.
2. In the Network Section click on the VLan Tab.
3. Click Add vLan.
4. Enter a name for the VLAN.
5. Enter a VLAN ID, i.e. 10, 20, etc. Ensure this VLAN ID is associated with a VLAN setup on the main switch and that your Laptop or PC being used for programming is on this same ID.
   • Note: vLan ID could be any value 2-4094.
6. Assign vLan QOS (Quality of Service) priority. 0 = Lowest and 7 = Highest
7. Pick a Trunk port (Tagged Ports). Trunk ports are typically the main connection for network traffic for each group. They are usually connected to a network switch, WAPs, etc.
8. Pick the Access port(s) (Untagged Ports) associated with the vLan. Access Ports are typically used for Cameras, etc. If programming locally, ensure your laptop or PC is connected to one of these ports.
9. Save Configuration.
10. Repeat steps 2 – 9 to add another vLan.
    • If the unit is accidently programmed incorrectly and you cannot get into the Netway4EBT3 series programming, physically moving ports of yours.
    • PC connected to the main switch to a correct port (when being programmed remotely), or, as a last resort, completed a factory reset locally and reprogrammed the unit.
11. Advanced Port Settings:
    • Unknown VID Packet Forwarding Configuration:
    • On ingress unknown VID, forward to a fixed set of ports. By default, no forwarding is set.
    • Configuration on Ingress Untagged Traffic:
    • Trunk Port action for ingress UNTAGGED packets. By default do not drop packets.
    • Keep Tag on Egress:
    • Select if you want ACCESS Port to keep the VLAN tag when sending egress packets.
    • By default tags are stripped.
    • Preferred VLAN Forwarding:
    • For ACCESS Ports that belong to more than one VLAN. Select preferred vLan to forward UNTAGGED ingress packets. By default preferred vLan is the last vLan created.

Typical VLan Setup

Any Ethernet port can be used for VLan Pass-Thru

Factory Reset Option

1. Power the unit down. Allow approximately 30 seconds for the unit to power down completely.
2. Depress the Master Reset button on Netway4EBTB while reapplying power to the unit (Fig. 1a Fig. 3).
   Continue holding the button until the LEDs on board go through the start-up cycle, then release the button.
3. The unit returns to the original factory settings.

1. Place the unit at the desired location and secure it with mounting screws (not included) (Fig. 4).

Pole Mounting Using Optional Pole Mount Kit PMK1 (NetWay4EBTWP3) or PMK2 (NetWay4EBTWPX3):

• This installation should be made by qualified service personnel. This product contains no serviceable parts.
• PMK1 and PMK2 outdoor pole mount kits are designed to simplify the installation of Altronix outdoor-rated power supplies and accessories housed in models WP1, WP2, WP3, and WP4 NEMA-rated enclosures.
• PMK1 and PMK2 can be mounted on 2” to 8” (50.8mm to 203.2mm) diameter round or 5” (127mm) square poles.
• Brackets are designed for use with the Wormgear Quick Release Straps (two included).

1. Thread one (1) wormgear quick-release strap through the slots on the back of a mounting bracket (Fig. 5,).
2. Once the desired height of the top Pole Mount bracket is achieved, tighten the straps down by sliding open the end of the strap through the locking mechanism on the strap, then tighten the screw witha flat head screwdriver or 5/16” hex socket driver (Fig. 6, and Fig. 8).
