4. Opsætning og installation

4.1 Fysisk installation

1. Strømtilslutning: Connect the provided power adapter to the DC input port on the rear panel of the switch, then plug the adapter into a power outlet. The Power LED on the front panel will illuminate.
2. Netværksforbindelser: Connect your network devices (e.g., PCs, NAS, WiFi 6 routers, wireless APs) to the RJ45 ports (1-5) using Ethernet cables. For high-speed backbone connections, use the 10G SFP+ port with a compatible SFP+ module (not included).
3. Vægmontering (valgfrit): The switch features two wall-hanging holes on the bottom for flexible placement. Securely mount the switch using appropriate screws (not included) if desired.

4.2 Indledende Web Interface adgang

For at få adgang til web management interface for configuration:

1. Connect Directly: Connect a computer directly to one of the switch's RJ45 ports using an Ethernet cable.
2. Konfigurer IP-adresse: Ensure your computer's IP address is on the same subnet as the switch's default IP address. The default IP address for the NICGIGA S25-0501-M switch is typically 192.168.1.199. You may need to manually set your computer's IP address (e.g., 192.168.1.100) and subnet mask (255.255.255.0).
3. Adgang Web Browser: Åbn a web browser and enter the switch's default IP address (http://192.168.1.199/) i adresselinjen.
4. Login: Enter the default username and password (refer to the Quick Start Guide or product documentation for default credentials, often 'admin'/'admin' or similar).

Note: If you cannot access the web interface, ensure your computer's network settings are compatible with the switch's default IP range. If the IP address has been changed, you may need to perform a factory reset to revert to default settings.

5. Betjening af kontakten

Når du er logget ind på web management interface, you can configure various network settings. The interface provides options for:

• VLAN (virtuelt lokalnetværk): Segmentér dit netværk for forbedret sikkerhed og ydeevne.
• QoS (Quality of Service): Prioriter netværkstrafik til kritiske applikationer.
• Multicast (IGMP Snooping): Optimer levering af multicast-trafik.
• Link Aggregation (LAG/Trunk): Kombinér flere fysiske links til et enkelt logisk link for øget båndbredde og redundans.
• Portspejling: Overvåg netværkstrafik ved at sende en kopi af pakker fra én port til en anden.
• MAC Address Management: Control access based on MAC addresses.

7. Fejlfinding

7.1 Kan ikke få adgang Web Interface

• Bekræft IP-adresse: Ensure your computer's IP address is on the same subnet as the switch (default: 192.168.1.199).
• Tjek fysisk forbindelse: Confirm that the Ethernet cable is securely connected between your computer and the switch.
• Power Cycle: Disconnect and reconnect the power to the switch.
• Gendan fabriksindstillinger: If the IP address was changed and forgotten, perform a factory reset by pressing and holding the reset button on the rear panel for approximately 5-10 seconds while the device is powered on. This will revert all settings to their defaults, including the IP address.
• Browserproblemer: Prøv en anden web browser eller ryd din browsers cache.

7.2 Intermitterende Web Interface Responsiveness

Nogle brugere har rapporteret, at web interface may become unresponsive after extended periods of operation, even if network traffic continues to pass through the switch. If this occurs:

• Reboot the Switch: Perform a power cycle (disconnect and reconnect power) to restore access to the web interface.

7.3 Low Network Speed

• Check Cable Quality: Ensure you are using Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cables for 2.5G connections, and Cat6a or higher for 10G SFP+ connections (with appropriate SFP+ modules).
• Enhedskompatibilitet: Verify that connected devices (NICs, routers) support 2.5G or 10G speeds.
• Portindikatorer: Observe the Link/Act LEDs. A green LED indicates a 2.5Gbps connection on RJ45 ports.
