Every port can access each other. (*The switch image is sample only.)
If VLAN is enabled and configured, each node in the network that can communicate each
other directly is bounded in the same VLAN area.
Here VLAN area is defined by what VLAN you are using. The switch supports both port-based
VLAN and tag-based VLAN. They are different in practical deployment, especially in physical
location. The following diagram shows how it works and what the difference they are.

Before start using the switch, the IP address setting of the switch should be done, then
perform the following steps:
1. Set up a physical path between the configured the switch and a PC by a qualified UTP Cat.
5e cable with RJ-45 connector.
Note: If PC directly connects to the switch, you have to setup the same subnet mask
between them. But, subnet mask may be different for the PC in the remote site. Please
refer to the above figure about the Web Smart Switch default IP address information.
2. After configuring correct IP address on your PC, open your web browser and access
switch's IP address.
Default system account is "admin", with password "admin" in default. Switch IP address is
"192.168.1.224" by default with DHCP client enabled.

For IP address configuration, there are three parameters needed to be filled in. They are IP
address, Subnet Mask, Default Gateway and DNS.
IP address:
The address of the network device in the network is used for internetworking communication.
Its address structure looks is shown below. It is “classful” because it is split into predefined
address classes or categories.
Each class has its own network range between the network identifier and host identifier in the
32 bits address. Each IP address comprises two parts: network identifier (address) and host
identifier (address). The former indicates the network where the addressed host resides, and
the latter indicates the individual host in the network which the address of host refers to. And
the host identifier must be unique in the same LAN. Here the term of IP address we used is
version 4, known as IPv4.
Network identifier Host identifier
32 bits
With the classful addressing, it divides IP address into three classes, class A, class B and class
C. The rest of IP addresses are for multicast and broadcast. The bit length of the network
prefix is the same as that of the subnet mask and is denoted as IP address/X, for example,
192.168.1.0/24. Each class has its address range described below.
Class A:
Address is less than 126.255.255.255. There are a total of 126 networks can be defined
because the address 0.0.0.0 is reserved for default route and 127.0.0.0/8 is reserved for
loopback function.
Class B:
IP address range between 128.0.0.0 and 191.255.255.255. Each class B network has a 16-bit
network prefix followed 16-bit host address. There are 16,384 (2^14)/16 networks able to be
defined with a maximum of 65534 (2^16 –2) hosts per network.
Class C:
IP address range between 192.0.0.0 and 223.255.255.255. Each class C network has a 24-bit
network prefix followed 8-bit host address. There are 2,097,152 (2^21)/24 networks able to
be defined with a maximum of 254 (2^8 –2) hosts per network.
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
12
Class D and E:
Class D is a class with first 4 MSB (Most significance bit) set to 1-1-1-0 and is used for IP
Multicast. See also RFC 1112. Class E is a class with first 4 MSB set to 1-1-1-1 and is used for IP
broadcast.
According to IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority), there are three specific IP address
blocks reserved and able to be used for extending internal network. We call it Private IP
address and list below:
Class A 10.0.0.0 --- 10.255.255.255
Class B 172.16.0.0 --- 172.31.255.255
Class C 192.168.0.0 --- 192.168.255.255
Please refer to RFC 1597 and RFC 1466 for more information.
Subnet mask:
It means the sub-division of a class-based network or a CIDR block. The subnet is used to
determine how to split an IP address to the network prefix and the host address in bitwise
basis. It is designed to utilize IP address more efficiently and ease to manage IP network.
For a class B network, 128.1.2.3, it may have a subnet mask 255.255.0.0 in default, in which
the first two bytes is with all 1s. This means more than 60 thousands of nodes in flat IP
address will be at the same network. It’s too large to manage practically. Now if we divide it
into smaller network by extending network prefix from 16 bits to, say 24 bits, that’s using its
third byte to subnet this class B network. Now it has a subnet mask 255.255.255.0, in which
each bit of the first three bytes is 1. It’s now clear that the first two bytes is used to identify
the class B network, the third byte is used to identify the subnet within this class B network
and, of course, the last byte is the host number.
Not all IP address is available in the sub-netted network. Two special addresses are reserved.
They are the addresses with all zero’s and all one’s host number. For example, an IP address
128.1.2.128, what IP address reserved will be looked like? All 0s mean the network itself, and
all 1s mean IP broadcast.
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
13
In this diagram, you can see the subnet mask with 25-bit long, 255.255.255.128, contains 126
members in the sub-netted network. Another is that the length of network prefix equals the
number of the bit with 1s in that subnet mask. With this, you can easily count the number of
IP addresses matched. The following table shows the result.
Prefix Length No. of IP matched No. of Addressable IP
/32 1 -
/31 2 -
/30 4 2
/29 8 6
/28 16 14
/27 32 30
/26 64 62
/25 128 126
/24 256 254
/23 512 510
/22 1024 1022
/21 2048 2046
/20 4096 4094
/19 8192 8190
/18 16384 16382
/17 32768 32766
/16 65536 65534
According to the scheme above, a subnet mask 255.255.255.0 will partition a network with
the class C. It means there will have a maximum of 254 effective nodes existed in this
sub-netted network and is considered a physical network in an autonomous network. So it
owns a network IP address which may looks like 168.1.2.0.
With the subnet mask, a bigger network can be cut into small pieces of network. If we want to
have more than two independent networks in a worknet, a partition to the network must be
performed. In this case, subnet mask must be applied.
For different network applications, the subnet mask may look like 255.255.255.240. This
means it is a small network accommodating a maximum of 15 nodes in the network.
For assigning an IP address to the switch, you just have to check what the IP address of the
network will be connected with the switch. Use the same network address and append your
host address to it.
First, IP Address: as shown above, enter “192.168.1.224”, for instance. For sure, an
IP address such as 192.168.1.x must be set on your PC.
Second, Subnet Mask: as shown above, enter “255.255.255.0”. Choose a subnet mask
suitable for your network.
Note: The DHCP Setting is enabled in default. Therefore, if a DHCP server presented on
network connected to the switch, check before accessing your switch is essential.

Selecting Auto (auto-negotiation) allows one port to negotiate
with a peer port automatically to obtain the connection speed
and duplex mode that both ends support. When
auto-negotiation is turned on, a port on the switch negotiates
with the peer automatically to determine the connection
speed and duplex mode. If the peer port does not support
auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the switch
determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on
the cable and using half duplex mode. When the switch’s
auto-negotiation is turned off, a port uses the pre-configured
speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus
requiring you to make sure that the settings of the peer port
are the same in order to connect.
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide

For SFP fiber module, you might need to manually configure
the speed to match fiber module speed.
Duplex Port duplex capabilities:
Auto: Auto duplex with all capabilities.
Half: Auto speed with 10/100M ability only.
Full: Auto speed with 10/100/1000M ability only.
Flow Control A concentration of traffic on a port decreases port bandwidth
and overflows buffer memory causing packet discards and
frame losses. Flow Control is used to regulate transmission of
signals to match the bandwidth of the receiving port. The
switch uses IEEE802.3x flow control in full duplex mode and
backpressure flow control in half duplex mode. IEEE802.3x
flow control is used in full duplex mode to send a pause signal
to the sending port, causing it to temporarily stop sending
signals when the receiving port memory buffers fill. Back
Pressure flow control is typically used in half duplex mode to
send a "collision" signal to the sending port (mimicking a state
of packet collision) causing the sending port to temporarily
stop sending signals and resend later.
Enable – Click it to enable such function.
Disable – Click it to disable such function.
Apply Save the settings or changes to the switch.

There are eight LAG profiles allowed to group different physical ports (GE1 to GE28). The
system will assign certain port(s) as Active Member and Standby Member according to the GE
selections.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
Description Display the port description.
Port Type Display the type of the LAG.
Link Status Display LAG port link status.
Active Member Display active member ports of the LAG.
Standby Member Display inactive or candidate member ports of the LAG.
Modify It is used to edit the name, type and port number for each link
aggregation profile.
Name- Enter a string as LAG name.
Type – Use the drop down menu to specify the type for LAG.
Static- The static aggregated port sends packets over
active member without detecting or negotiating with
remote aggregated port.
LACP- The LACP aggregated ports place member into
active only after negotiated with remote aggregated port
for best reliability.

This page defines port setting for each LAG profile (LAG1 to LAG8), including data speed and
enabling/disabling the flow control.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
LAG Use the drop down list to selelct one or more LAG profiles.
Enable Enable Click it to enable the profile.
Disable – Click it to disable the profile.
Speed Port speed capabilities:
Auto: Auto speed with all capabilities.
Auto-10M: Auto speed with 10M ability only.
Auto-100M: Auto speed with 100M ability only.
Auto-1000M: Auto speed with 1000M ability only.
Auto-10/100M: Auto speed with 10/100M ability.
10M: Force speed with 10M ability.
100M: Force speed with 100M ability.
1000M: Force speed with 1000M ability.
Selecting Auto (auto-negotiation) allows one port to negotiate
with a peer port automatically to obtain the connection speed
and duplex mode that both ends support. When
auto-negotiation is turned on, a port on the switch negotiates
with the peer automatically to determine the connection
speed and duplex mode. If the peer port does not support
auto-negotiation or turns off this feature, the switch
determines the connection speed by detecting the signal on
the cable and using half duplex mode. When the switch’s
auto-negotiation is turned off, a port uses the pre-configured
speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus
requiring you to make sure that the settings of the peer port
are the same in order to connect.
For SFP fiber module, you might need to manually configure
the speed to match fiber module speed.

Flow Control A concentration of traffic on a port decreases port bandwidth
and overflows buffer memory causing packet discards and
frame losses. Flow Control is used to regulate transmission of
signals to match the bandwidth of the receiving port. The
switch uses IEEE802.3x flow control in full duplex mode and
backpressure flow control in half duplex mode. IEEE802.3x
flow control is used in full duplex mode to send a pause signal
to the sending port, causing it to temporarily stop sending
signals when the receiving port memory buffers fill. Back
Pressure flow control is typically used in half duplex mode to
send a "collision" signal to the sending port (mimicking a state
of packet collision) causing the sending port to temporarily
stop sending signals and resend later.
Enable – Click it to enable such function.
Disable – Click it to disable such function.
Apply Save the settings or changes to the switch.

Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
LACP Enable – Click it to enable such function.
Disable – Click it to disable the function.
System Priority The priority is used to determine which switch (local or
remote) on the LAG connection is able to decide LACP
activities. The lower the number is, the higher the priority for
Vigorwitch will be. Therefore, the switch with the highest
system priority (e.g., 1) can make decisions about which ports
actively participate in LAG at a given time.

A virtual local area network, virtual LAN or VLAN, is a group of hosts with a common set of
requirements that communicate as if they were attached to the same broadcast domain,
regardless of their physical location. A VLAN has the same attributes as a physical local area
network (LAN), but it allows for end stations to be grouped together even if they are not
located on the same network switch. VLAN membership can be configured through software
instead of physically relocating devices or connections.

IP multicast is a technique for one-to-many communication over an IP infrastructure in a
network.
To avoid the incoming data broadcasting to all GE ports, multicast is useful to transfer the
data/message to specified GE ports for IGMP snooping. When VigorSwitch receives a message
“subscribed” by the client, it must decide to transfer the data to specified GE ports according
to the location of the client (subscribed member).

IGMP snooping is the process of listening to Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP)
network traffic. The feature allows a network switch to listen in on the IGMP conversation
between hosts and routers. By listening to these conversations the switch maintains a map of
which links need which IP multicast streams. Multicasts may be filtered from the links which
do not need them and thus controls which ports receive specific multicast traffic.

The Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) is a network protocol that ensures a loop-free topology for
any bridged Ethernet local area network.
Bridge Protocol Data Units (BPDUs) are frames that contain information about the Spanning
Tree Protocol (STP). Switches send BPDUs using a unique MAC address from its origin port and
a multicast address as destination MAC (01:80:C2:00:00:00, or 01:00:0C:CC:CC:CD for Per
VLAN Spanning Tree).
For STP algorithms to function, the switches need to share information about themselves and
their connections. What they share are bridge protocol data units (BPDUs).
BPDUs are sent out as multicast frames to which only other layer 2 switches or bridges are
listening. If any loops (multiple possible paths between switches) are found in the network
topology, the switches will co-operate to disable a port or ports to ensure that there are no
loops; that is, from one device to any other device in the layer 2 network, only one path can
be taken.

This page allows the user to configure and display STP port settings.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
Ports Use the drop down to specify the interface ID or the list of
interface IDs.
Path Cost (0=Auto) Path cost is the cost of transmitting a frame on to a LAN
through that port. It is recommended to assign this value
according to the speed of the bridge. The slower the media,
the higher the cost. Entering 0 means the switch will
automatically assign a value.
Edge Port In the edge mode, the interface would be put into the
Forwarding state immediately upon link up. If the edge mode
is enabled for the interface and there are BPDUs received on
the interface, the loop might be occurred in the short time
before the STP state change.
Yes – Enable the function.
No – Disable the function.
P2P Option Yes It means the STP of link type on this port is full-duplex
and directly connect to another switch or host.
No - It means the STP of link type on this port is “not”
full-duplex and “does not” directly connect to another switch
or host.
Migrate Yes Check it to force the specified port to send one RSTP
BPDU (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol Bridge Protocol Data
Unit).

This page allows you to configure required information to negotiate with other VigorSwitch
for determining the bridge switch.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description
Priority Specify the bridge priority. The valid range is from 0 to 61440,
and the value should be the multiple of 4096. It ensures the
probability that the switch is selected as the root bridge, and
the lower value has the higher priority for the switch to be
selected as the root bridge of the topology.
Forward Delay Specify the STP forward delay time, which is the amount of
time that a port remains in the Listening and Learning states
before it enters the Forwarding state. Its valid range is from 4
to 10 seconds.

configuration messages, without attempting to redefine its
own configuration.
Tx Hold Count Specify the tx-hold-count used to limit the maximum numbers
of packets transmission per second. The valid range is from 1
to 10.
Hello Time Specify the STP hello time in second to broadcast its hello
message to other bridge by Designated Ports. Its valid range is
from 1 to 10 seconds.

A Denial of Service (DoS) attack is a hacker attempt to make a device unavailable to its users.
DoS attacks saturate the device with external communication requests, so that it cannot
respond to legitimate traffic. These attacks usually lead to a device CPU overload.
The DoS protection feature is a set of predefined rules that protect the network from
malicious attacks. The DoS Security Suite Setting enables activating the security suite.

VigorSwitch supports multiple queues for each interface. The higher numbered queue
represents the higher priority. The following lists the types of supported priority queue:
Strict Priority (SP) - Egress traffic from the higher priority queue will be transmitted first,
lower priority queue shall wait until all traffic in SP queue is transmitted.
Weighted Round Robin (WRR) - The number of packets sent from the queue is
proportional to the weight of the queue.
Available settings are explained as follows:
Item Description

Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is an "Internet-standard protocol for managing
devices on IP networks". Devices that typically support SNMP include routers, switches,
servers, workstations, printers, modem racks and more.
SNMP is used mostly in network management systems to monitor network-attached devices
for conditions that warrant administrative attention.
SNMP is a component of the Internet Protocol Suite as defined by the Internet Engineering
Task Force (IETF). It consists of a set of standards for network management, including an
application layer protocol, a database schema, and a set of data objects.
An SNMP-managed network consists of three key components:
Managed device
Agent - software which runs on managed devices
Network management station (NMS) - software which runs on the manager
A managed device is a network node that implements an SNMP interface that allows
unidirectional (read-only) or bidirectional (read and write) access to node-specific
information. Managed devices exchange node-specific information with the NMSs. Sometimes
called network elements, the managed devices can be any type of device, including, but not
limited to, routers, access servers, switches, bridges, hubs, IP telephones, IP video cameras,
computer hosts, and printers.
An agent is a network-management software module that resides on a managed device. An
agent has local knowledge of management information and translates that information to or
from an SNMP-specific form.
A network management station (NMS) executes applications that monitor and control
managed devices. NMSs provide the bulk of the processing and memory resources required for
network management. One or more NMSs may exist on any managed network.

Ethernet originated and was implemented at Xerox in Palo Alto, CA in 1973 and was
successfully commercialized by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), Intel and Xerox (DIX) in
1980. In 1992, Grand Junction Networks unveiled a new high speed Ethernet with the same
characteristic of the original Ethernet but operated at 100Mbps, called Fast Ethernet now.
This means Fast Ethernet inherits the same frame format, CSMA/CD, software interface. In
1998, Gigabit Ethernet was rolled out and provided 1000Mbps. Now 10G/s Ethernet is under
approving. Although these Ethernet have different speed, they still use the same basic
functions. So they are compatible in software and can connect each other almost without
limitation. The transmission media may be the only problem.
In the above figure, we can see that Ethernet locates at the Data Link layer and Physical layer
and comprises three portions, including logical link control (LLC), media access control (MAC),
and physical layer. The first two comprises Data link layer, which performs splitting data into
frame for transmitting, receiving acknowledge frame, error checking and re-transmitting
when not received correctly as well as provides an error-free channel upward to network
layer.

This above diagram shows the Ethernet architecture, LLC sub-layer and MAC sub-layer, which
are responded to the Data Link layer, and transceivers, which are responded to the Physical
layer in OSI model. In this section, we are mainly describing the MAC sub-layer.

Data link layer is composed of both the sub-layers of MAC and MAC-client. Here MAC client
may be logical link control or bridge relay entity.
Logical link control supports the interface between the Ethernet MAC and upper layers in the
protocol stack, usually Network layer, which is nothing to do with the nature of the LAN. So it
can operate over other different LAN technology such as Token Ring, FDDI and so on. Likewise,
for the interface to the MAC layer, LLC defines the services with the interface independent of
the medium access technology and with some of the nature of the medium itself.
The table above is the format of LLC PDU. It comprises four fields, DSAP, SSAP, Control and
Information. The DSAP address field identifies the one or more service access points, in which
the I/G bit indicates it is individual or group address. If all bit of DSAP is 1s, it’s a global
address. The SSAP address field identifies the specific services indicated by C/R bit (command
or response). The DSAP and SSAP pair with some reserved values indicates some well-known
services listed in the table below.

LLC type 1 connectionless service, LLC type 2 connection-oriented service and LLC type 3
acknowledge connectionless service are three types of LLC frame for all classes of service. In
Fig 3-2, it shows the format of Service Access Point (SAP). Please refer to IEEE802.2 for more
details.

Because LAN is composed of many nodes, for the data exchanged among these nodes, each
node must have its own unique address to identify who should send the data or should receive
the data. In OSI model, each layer provides its own mean to identify the unique address in
some form, for example, IP address in network layer.
The MAC is belonged to Data Link Layer (Layer 2), the address is defined to be a 48-bit long
and locally unique address. Since this type of address is applied only to the Ethernet LAN
media access control (MAC), they are referred to as MAC addresses.
The first three bytes are Organizational Unique Identifier (OUI) code assigned by IEEE. The
last three bytes are the serial number assigned by the vendor of the network device. All these
six bytes are stored in a non-volatile memory in the device. Their format is as the following
table and normally written in the form as aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff, a 12 hexadecimal digits
separated by hyphens, in which the aa-bb-cc is the OUI code and the dd-ee-ff is the serial
number assigned by manufacturer.

The first bit of the first byte in the Destination address (DA) determines the address to be a
Unicast (0) or Multicast frame (1), known as I/G bit indicating individual (0) or group (1). So
the 48-bit address space is divided into two portions, Unicast and Multicast. The second bit is
for global-unique (0) or locally-unique address. The former is assigned by the device
manufacturer, and the later is usually assigned by the administrator. In practice,
global-unique addresses are always applied.
A unicast address is identified with a single network interface. With this nature of MAC
address, a frame transmitted can exactly be received by the target an interface the
destination MAC points to.
A multicast address is identified with a group of network devices or network interfaces. In
Ethernet, a many-to-many connectivity in the LANs is provided. It provides a mean to send a
frame to many network devices at a time. When all bit of DA is 1s, it is a broadcast, which
means all network device except the sender itself can receive the frame and response.

There are two major forms of Ethernet frame, type encapsulation and length encapsulation,
both of which are categorized as four frame formats 802.3/802.2 SNAP, 802.3/802.2,
Ethernet II and Netware 802.3 RAW. We will introduce the basic Ethernet frame format
defined by the IEEE 802.3 standard required for all MAC implementations. It contains seven
fields explained below.
PRE SFD DA SA Type/Length Data Pad bit if any FCS
7 7 6 6 2 46-1500 4
Preamble (PRE) - The PRE is 7-byte long with alternating pattern of ones and zeros used to
tell the receiving node that a frame is coming, and to synchronize the physical receiver with
the incoming bit stream. The preamble pattern is:
10101010 10101010 10101010 10101010 10101010 10101010 10101010
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
103
Start-of-frame delimiter (SFD) - The SFD is one-byte long with alternating pattern of ones
and zeros, ending with two consecutive 1-bits. It immediately follows the preamble and uses
the last two consecutive 1s bit to indicate that the next bit is the start of the data packet and
the left-most bit in the left-most byte of the destination address. The SFD pattern is
10101011.
Destination address (DA) - The DA field is used to identify which network device(s) should
receive the packet. It is a unique address. Please see the section of MAC addressing.
Source addresses (SA) - The SA field indicates the source node. The SA is always an individual
address and the left-most bit in the SA field is always 0.
Length/Type - This field indicates either the number of the data bytes contained in the data
field of the frame, or the Ethernet type of data. If the value of first two bytes is less than or
equal to 1500 in decimal, the number of bytes in the data field is equal to the Length/Type
value, i.e. this field acts as Length indicator at this moment. When this field acts as Length,
the frame has optional fields for 802.3/802.2 SNAP encapsulation, 802.3/802.2 encapsulation
and Netware 802.3 RAW encapsulation. Each of them has different fields following the Length
field.
If the Length/Type value is greater than 1500, it means the Length/Type acts as Type.
Different type value means the frames with different protocols running over Ethernet being
sent or received.
For example,
0x0800 IP datagram
0x0806 ARP
0x0835 RARP
0x8137 IPX datagram
0x86DD IPv6
Data - Less than or equal to 1500 bytes and greater or equal to 46 bytes. If data is less than 46
bytes, the MAC will automatically extend the padding bits and have the payload be equal to
46 bytes. The length of data field must equal the value of the Length field when the
Length/Type acts as Length.
Frame check sequence (FCS) - This field contains a 32-bit cyclic redundancy check (CRC)
value, and is a check sum computed with DA, SA, through the end of the data field with the
following polynomial.
It is created by the sending MAC and recalculated by the receiving MAC to check if the packet
is damaged or not.

The MAC sub-layer has two primary jobs to do:
1. Receiving and transmitting data. When receiving data, it parses frame to detect error;
when transmitting data, it performs frame assembly.
2. Performing Media access control. It prepares the initiation jobs for a frame transmission
and makes recovery from transmission failure.

As Ethernet adopted Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Detect (CSMA/CD), it detects
if there is any carrier signal from another network device running over the physical medium
when a frame is ready for transmission. This is referred to as sensing carrier, also “Listen”. If
there is signal on the medium, the MAC defers the traffic to avoid a transmission collision and
waits for a random period of time, called backoff time, then sends the traffic again.
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
104
After the frame is assembled, when transmitting the frame, the preamble (PRE) bytes are
inserted and sent first, then the next, Start of frame Delimiter (SFD), DA, SA and through the
data field and FCS field in turn. The followings summarize what a MAC does before
transmitting a frame.
1. MAC will assemble the frame. First, the preamble and Start-of-Frame delimiter will be
put in the fields of PRE and SFD, followed DA, SA, tag ID if tagged VLAN is applied,
Ethertype or the value of the data length, and payload data field, and finally put the FCS
data in order into the responded fields.
2. Listen if there is any traffic running over the medium. If yes, wait.
3. If the medium is quiet, and no longer senses any carrier, the MAC waits for a period of
time, i.e. inter-frame gap time to have the MAC ready with enough time and then start
transmitting the frame.
4. During the transmission, MAC keeps monitoring the status of the medium. If no collision
happens until the end of the frame, it transmits successfully. If there is a collision
happened, the MAC will send the patterned jamming bit to guarantee the collision event
propagated to all involved network devices, then wait for a random period of time, i.e.
backoff time. When backoff time expires, the MAC goes back to the beginning state and
attempts to transmit again. After a collision happens, MAC increases the transmission
attempts. If the count of the transmission attempt reaches 16 times, the frame in MAC’s
queue will be discarded.
Ethernet MAC transmits frames in half-duplex and full-duplex ways. In halfduplex operation
mode, the MAC can either transmit or receive frame at a moment, but cannot do both jobs at
the same time.
As the transmission of a MAC frame with the half-duplex operation exists only in the same
collision domain, the carrier signal needs to spend time to travel to reach the targeted device.
For two most-distant devices in the same collision domain, when one sends the frame first,
and the second sends the frame, in worstcase, just before the frame from the first device
arrives. The collision happens and will be detected by the second device immediately.
Because of the medium delay, this corrupted signal needs to spend some time to propagate
back to the first device. The maximum time to detect a collision is approximately twice the
signal propagation time between the two most-distant devices. This maximum time is
traded-off by the collision recovery time and the diameter of the LAN.
In the original 802.3 specification, Ethernet operates in half duplex only. Under this condition,
when in 10Mbps LAN, it’s 2500 meters, in 100Mbps LAN, it’s approximately 200 meters and in
1000Mbps, 200 meters. According to the theory, it should be 20 meters. But it’s not practical,
so the LAN diameter is kept by using to increase the minimum frame size with a
variable-length non-data extension bit field which is removed at the receiving MAC. The
following tables are the frame format suitable for 10M, 100M and 1000M Ethernet, and some
parameter values that shall be applied to all of these three types of Ethernet.
Actually, the practice Gigabit Ethernet chips do not feature this so far. They all have their
chips supported full-duplex mode only, as well as all network vendors’ devices. So this
criterion should not exist at the present time and in the future. The switch’s Gigabit module
supports only full-duplex mode.

In full-duplex operation mode, both transmitting and receiving frames are processed
simultaneously. This doubles the total bandwidth. Full duplex is much easier than half duplex
because it does not involve media contention, collision, retransmission schedule, padding bits
for short frame. The rest functions follow the specification of IEEE802.3. For example, it must
meet the requirement of minimum inter-frame gap between successive frames and frame
format the same as that in the half-duplex operation.
Because no collision will happen in full-duplex operation, for sure, there is no mechanism to
tell all the involved devices. What will it be if receiving device is busy and a frame is coming
at the same time? Can it use “backpressure” to tell the source device? A function flow control
is introduced in the full-duplex operation.

Flow control is a mechanism to tell the source device stopping sending frame for a specified
period of time designated by target device until the PAUSE time expires. This is accomplished
by sending a PAUSE frame from target device to source device. When the target is not busy
and the PAUSE time is expired, it will send another PAUSE frame with zero time-to-wait to
source device. After the source device receives the PAUSE frame, it will again transmit
frames immediately. PAUSE frame is identical in the form of the MAC frame with a pause-time
value and with a special destination MAC address 01-80-C2-00-00-01. As per the specification,
PAUSE operation can not be used to inhibit the transmission of MAC control frame.
Normally, in 10Mbps and 100Mbps Ethernet, only symmetric flow control is supported.
However, some switches (e.g. 24-Port GbE Web Smart Switch) support not only symmetric but
asymmetric flow controls for the special application. In Gigabit Ethernet, both symmetric
flow control and asymmetric flow control are supported. Asymmetric flow control only allows
transmitting PAUSE frame in one way from one side, the other side is not but
receipt-and-discard the flow control information. Symmetric flow control allows both two
ports to transmit PASUE frames each other simultaneously.

After the end of a transmission, if a network node is ready to transmit data out and if there is
no carrier signal on the medium at that time, the device will wait for a period of time known
as an inter-frame gap time to have the medium clear and stabilized as well as to have the jobs
ready, such as adjusting buffer counter, updating counter and so on, in the receiver site.
Once the inter-frame gap time expires after the de-assertion of carrier sense, the MAC
transmits data. In IEEE802.3 specification, this is 96-bit time or more.

Collision happens only in half-duplex operation. When two or more network nodes transmit
frames at approximately the same time, a collision always occurs and interferes with each
other. This results the carrier signal distorted and undiscriminated. MAC can afford detecting,
through the physical layer, the distortion of the carrier signal. When a collision is detected
during a frame transmission, the transmission will not stop immediately but, instead,
continues transmitting until the rest bits specified by jamSize are completely transmitted.
This guarantees the duration of collision is enough to have all involved devices able to detect
the collision. This is referred to as Jamming. After jamming pattern is sent, MAC stops
transmitting the rest data queued in the buffer and waits for a random period of time, known
as backoff time with the following formula. When backoff time expires, the device goes back
to the state of attempting to transmit frame. The backoff time is determined by the formula
below. When the times of collision is increased, the backoff time is getting long until the
collision times excess 16. If this happens, the frame will be discarded and backoff time will
also be reset.

In essence, the frame reception is the same in both operations of half duplex and full duplex,
except that full-duplex operation uses two buffers to transmit and receive the frame
independently. The receiving node always “listens” if there is traffic running over the
medium when it is not receiving a frame. When a frame destined for the target device comes,
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
107
the receiver of the target device begins receiving the bit stream, and looks for the PRE
(Preamble) pattern and Start-of-Frame Delimiter (SFD) that indicates the next bit is the
starting point of the MAC frame until all bit of the frame is received.
For a received frame, the MAC will check:
1. If it is less than one slotTime in length, i.e. short packet, and if yes, it will be discarded
by MAC because, by definition, the valid frame must be longer than the slotTime. If the
length of the frame is less than one slotTime, it means there may be a collision happened
somewhere or an interface malfunctioned in the LAN. When detecting the case, the MAC
drops the packet and goes back to the ready state.
2. If the DA of the received frame exactly matches the physical address that the receiving
MAC owns or the multicast address designated to recognize. If not, discards it and the
MAC passes the frame to its client and goes back to the ready state.
3. If the frame is too long. If yes, throws it away and reports frame Too Long.
4. If the FCS of the received frame is valid. If not, for 10M and 100M Ethernet, discards the
frame. For Gigabit Ethernet or higher speed Ethernet, MAC has to check one more field,
i.e. extra bit field, if FCS is invalid. If there is any extra bits existed, which must meet the
specification of IEEE802.3. When both FCS and extra bits are valid, the received frame
will be accepted, otherwise discards the received frame and reports frameCheckError if
no extra bits appended or alignmentError if extra bits appended.
5. If the length/type is valid. If not, discards the packet and reports lengthError.
6. If all five procedures above are ok, then the MAC treats the frame as good and
de-assembles the frame.

VLAN tagging is a 4-byte long data immediately following the MAC source address. When
tagged VLAN is applied, the Ethernet frame structure will have a little change shown as
follows.
Only two fields, VLAN ID and Tag control information are different in comparison with the
basic Ethernet frame. The rest fields are the same.
The first two bytes is VLAN type ID with the value of 0x8100 indicating the received frame is
tagged VLAN and the next two bytes are Tag Control Information (TCI) used to provide user
priority and VLAN ID, which are explained respectively in the following table.
Bits 15-13
User Priority 7-0, 0 is lowest priority
Bit 12
CFI (Canonical Format Indicator)
1: RIF field is present in the tag header
0: No RIF field is present
Bits 11-0
VID (VLAN Identifier)
0x000: Null VID. No VID is present and only user priority is
present.
0x001: Default VID
0xFFF: Reserved
Note: RIF is used in Token Ring network to provide source routing and comprises two fields,
Routing Control and Route Descriptor.
When MAC parses the received frame and finds a reserved special value 0x8100 at the location
of the Length/Type field of the normal non-VLAN frame, it will interpret the received frame
VigorSwitch G1280 User’s Guide
108
as a tagged VLAN frame. If this happens in a switch, the MAC will forward it, according to its
priority and egress rule, to all the ports that is associated with that VID. If it happens in a
network interface card, MAC will deprive of the tag header and process it in the same way as
a basic normal frame. For a VLAN-enabled LAN, all involved devices must be equipped with
VLAN optional function.
At operating speeds above 100 Mbps, the slotTime employed at slower speeds is inadequate
to accommodate network topologies of the desired physical extent. Carrier Extension
provides a means by which the slotTime can be increased to a sufficient value for the desired
topologies, without increasing the minFrameSize parameter, as this would have deleterious
effects. Nondata bits, referred to as extension bits, are appended to frames that are less than
slotTime bits in length so that the resulting transmission is at least one slotTime in duration.
Carrier Extension can be performed only if the underlying physical layer is capable of sending
and receiving symbols that are readily distinguished from data symbols, as is the case in most
physical layers that use a block encoding/decoding scheme.
The maximum length of the extension is equal to the quantity (slotTime - minFrameSize). The
MAC continues to monitor the medium for collisions while it is transmitting extension bits,
and it will treat any collision that occurs after the threshold (slotTime) as a late collision.
