• Indikatur tal-Port: Green light on indicates link is connected; light off indicates link is off; flashing indicates data transmitting.

4. Setup

4.1 Installazzjoni Fiżika

1. Pjazzament: Place the switch on a stable, flat surface or mount it to a wall using appropriate hardware. Ensure adequate ventilation around the device.
2. L-ertjar: Connect a grounding wire to the grounding hole on the rear panel of the switch for electrical safety.
3. Konnessjoni tal-Enerġija: Connect the provided power adapter to the DC input port on the rear panel and then plug it into a power outlet. The PWR LED should illuminate.

4.2 Konnessjoni tan-Netwerk

1. Konnessjoni Uplink: Connect your router or main network device to the Gigabit Uplink port (Port 8) using a standard Ethernet cable.
2. Konnessjoni tal-Apparat PoE: Connect your PoE-powered devices (e.g., IP cameras, wireless access points, VoIP phones) to any of the Gigabit PoE ports (Ports 1-7) using Ethernet cables. The switch will automatically detect and provide power to compliant devices.
3. Konnessjoni ta' Apparat Mhux PoE: Non-PoE devices can also be connected to Ports 1-7, but they will not receive power.

5. Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi

5.1 Operazzjoni Bażika

Once powered on and connected, the switch operates automatically. Data transmission will occur between connected devices. The port LEDs will indicate link status and activity.

5.2 Remote PoE Device Reboot

The managed features allow you to remotely power cycle PoE devices connected to the switch. This can be useful for troubleshooting or resetting devices without physical access.

6. Configuration (Web GUI)

The MokerLink switch features a powerful web-based management interface for advanced configuration and monitoring.

6.1 Aċċess għall- Web Interface

1. Ensure your computer is connected to the same network as the switch.
2. Iftaħ a web brawżer (eż., Chrome, Firefox).
3. Enter the default IP address: 192.168.2.1 fil-bar tal-indirizz.
4. Log in using the default credentials: User Name: admin, Password: admin.
5. Għal skopijiet ta' sigurtà, huwa rakkomandat ħafna li l-password awtomatika tinbidel immedjatament wara l-ewwel login.

6.2 L2 Managed Features

Il- web interface provides access to various Layer 2 management functions:

• VLAN: Create Virtual Local Area Networks to segment network traffic.
• QoS (Kwalità tas-Servizz): Agħti prijorità lit-traffiku tan-netwerk għal applikazzjonijiet kritiċi.
• IGMP: Manage multicast traffic.
• Aggregazzjoni ta' Links (LACP): Għaqqad diversi links fiżiċi f'link loġiku wieħed għal aktar bandwidth u redundanza.
• Loop Protection (RSTP): Evita l-linji tan-netwerk.
• Mirroring tal-Port: Immonitorja t-traffiku tan-netwerk billi tibgħat kopja tal-pakketti minn port għal ieħor.
• Iżolament tal-Port: Isolate ports to prevent communication between them.
• Kontroll tal-Bandwidth: Manage bandwidth usage per port.
• Tabella ta' l-Indirizz MAC: View and manage MAC address entries.
• Xandir il-Kontroll tal-Maltempata: Prevent network performance degradation due to excessive broadcast traffic.

8 Issolvi l-problemi

• Ebda Qawwa: Ensure the power adapter is securely connected to both the switch and a working power outlet. Check the PWR LED. If it's off, try a different outlet or power adapter.
• L-ebda Link/Attività fuq il-Port: Verify that the Ethernet cable is properly connected to both the switch port and the connected device. Check the cable for damage. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly.
• Apparat PoE Mhux Qed Jirċievi l-Enerġija: Confirm that the connected device is IEEE 802.3af/at compliant. Passive 24V PoE and non-PoE devices will not receive power. Check the PoE power budget in the web interface to ensure sufficient power is available.
• Ma nistax naċċessa Web Interface: Ensure your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the switch's default IP (192.168.2.x, where x is not 1). Verify the physical connection. Try clearing your browser's cache or using a different browser. If the password was changed and forgotten, perform a factory reset.
• Prestazzjoni bil-mod tan-Netwerk: Check for excessive network traffic or loops. Utilize L2 managed features like bandwidth control or loop protection if configured. Ensure all cables are Gigabit-rated.
