LED Indicators
| Indicator | Status | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Power | Solid Green | Device is powered on. |
| System | Blinking Green | System is running normally. |
| Link/Act (per port) | Solid Green | Link established. |
| Blinking Green | Data activity. | |
| PoE (per port) | Solid Green | PoE power is supplied. |
| Off | PoE power is not supplied. |
Work Mode Toggle
| Mode | Description |
|---|---|
| Standard | All ports operate at full speed, no special prioritization. |
| Port Priority | Ports are assigned priority levels for traffic management. Higher priority ports receive preferential treatment. |
| VLAN | Network segmentation into virtual LANs. Ports can be assigned to specific VLANs to isolate traffic. |
| Network Storm Control | Helps prevent network instability caused by excessive broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast traffic by limiting the rate of these packets. |
FAQ
Q1: What do the LED indicators mean?
A1: Refer to the 'LED Indicators' section for detailed descriptions of each indicator's status.
Q2: How do I set up VLANs?
A2: VLAN configuration is typically done through the switch's web management interface. Consult the full user manual for detailed instructions.
Q3: What is the maximum power output for PoE ports?
A3: The maximum power output depends on the specific model. For example, the G1120P-16-250W supports a total PoE budget of 250W.

Typical Network Topologies
Standard (End-to-End)
Description: This topology shows a typical network setup where multiple devices (computers, servers, access points) are connected to the IP-COM switch. The switch acts as the central hub, facilitating communication between all connected devices. The diagram illustrates devices connecting directly to switch ports.
Port Priority Mode
Description: This topology demonstrates the use of port priority. The switch is connected to various devices, including a server and workstations. Certain ports (e.g., those connected to critical servers or VoIP phones) are configured with higher priority, ensuring that traffic from these ports is processed before traffic from lower priority ports, especially during periods of high network congestion.
VLAN Configuration
Description: This diagram illustrates network segmentation using Virtual LANs (VLANs). The IP-COM switch connects devices that are logically grouped into different VLANs. For instance, one group might be for IP phones, another for servers, and another for general workstations. Devices within the same VLAN can communicate directly, but communication between different VLANs is controlled, enhancing security and network management.
Network Storm Modes
Description: This topology shows how the switch's network storm control features protect the network. The diagram depicts a scenario where excessive broadcast or multicast traffic (a "storm") is being generated. The switch, with storm control enabled, limits the rate of this traffic, preventing network slowdowns or outages and maintaining stable operation.
