Figure 1: Draytek VigorSwitch G1080 Front Panel. This image displays the front panel of the Draytek VigorSwitch G1080, showing the eight Gigabit Ethernet ports (numbered 1 through 8), the RST (Reset) button, the PWR (Power) LED indicator, and the SWM (Switch Management) LED indicator. Each port also has indicators for 10/100M and 1000M speeds. The device is black with a matte finish.

अगाडिको प्यानल सूचक र पोर्टहरू:

• PWR एलईडी: Indicates power status. Lit when the device is powered on.
• RST बटन: स्विचलाई फ्याक्ट्री पूर्वनिर्धारित सेटिङहरूमा रिसेट गर्न प्रयोग गरिन्छ।
• SWM LED: Indicates the status of the switch management.
• 1-8 Gigabit Ethernet Ports: RJ45 ports for connecting network devices. Each port supports 10/100/1000Mbps speeds.
• Port Speed Indicators: Small LEDs above each port indicate connection speed (e.g., green for Gigabit, amber for 10/100Mbps).

सेटअप

1. पावर जडान

1. Connect the included AC/DC power adapter to the power input port on the rear panel of the VigorSwitch G1080.
2. पावर एडाप्टरलाई मानक बिजुली आउटलेटमा प्लग गर्नुहोस्।
3. प्रमाणित गर्नुहोस् कि PWR LED on the front panel illuminates, indicating the device is receiving power.

2. नेटवर्क जडान

1. Connect your network devices (e.g., computers, servers, network printers, other switches) to the Gigabit Ethernet Ports (1-8) using standard RJ45 Ethernet cables.
2. For uplink to your router or main network, connect one of the ports to your router's LAN port.
3. Observe the port speed indicators. A green light typically indicates a Gigabit connection, while an amber light indicates a 10/100Mbps connection.

3. Initial Access and Management

The VigorSwitch G1080 can be managed directly via its web interface or through a compatible DrayTek Vigor router.

• प्रत्यक्ष Web इन्टरफेस:
  1. Ensure your computer is connected to the VigorSwitch.
  2. खोल्नुहोस् ए web browser and enter the default IP address of the switch (refer to the Quick Start Guide or DrayTek documentation for the default IP, typically 192.168.1.1 or similar).
  3. Enter the default username and password (also found in documentation).
• Managed by Vigor Router:

  If you have a compatible DrayTek Vigor router, the VigorSwitch G1080 can be managed and monitored through the router's web interface. Refer to your Vigor router's manual for instructions on integrating and managing connected switches.

Operating the VigorSwitch G1080

Once connected and powered on, the VigorSwitch G1080 operates automatically as a plug-and-play device for basic network extension. For advanced features, configuration is required via the web इन्टरफेस।

Key Features and Configuration Areas:

• VLAN (भर्चुअल लोकल एरिया नेटवर्क): Configure VLANs to segment your network for improved security and performance. This allows you to logically separate devices even if they are on the same physical switch.
• QoS (सेवाको गुणस्तर): Prioritize network traffic for critical applications (e.g., VoIP, video conferencing) to ensure smooth performance even under heavy network load.
• लिङ्क एकत्रीकरण (LAG): Combine multiple physical links between the switch and another network device (e.g., a server or another switch) to increase bandwidth and provide redundancy.
• पोर्ट मिररिंग: Copy network traffic from one or more ports to a designated monitoring port for analysis and troubleshooting.
• आँधी नियन्त्रण: Prevent network performance degradation caused by excessive broadcast, multicast, or unknown unicast traffic.
• ऊर्जा कुशल इथरनेट (EEE): Reduce power consumption during periods of low network activity.

Detailed configuration steps for these features are available within the switch's web management interface and the full DrayTek user manual (available on the DrayTek webसाइट)।

मर्मतसम्भार

फर्मवेयर अपडेट:

Periodically check the DrayTek website for firmware updates. Firmware updates can provide new features, performance improvements, and security enhancements. Follow the instructions provided with the firmware download carefully to avoid damaging the device.

सरसफाई:

Ensure the device is powered off and disconnected from all cables before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners.

वातावरणीय विचारहरू:

Place the switch in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and excessive moisture. The fanless design relies on passive cooling, so proper airflow is important.

समस्या निवारण

• पावर छैन (PWR LED बन्द):

  Check the power adapter connection to the switch and the electrical outlet. Ensure the outlet is functional. Try a different power outlet.

• पोर्टमा कुनै लिङ्क छैन:

  Verify that the Ethernet cable is securely connected at both ends. Try a different Ethernet cable. Ensure the connected device is powered on and functioning correctly. Check the port speed indicators; if no light, the cable or device may be faulty.
• ढिलो नेटवर्क कार्यसम्पादन:

  Check for excessive network traffic or loops. Ensure QoS settings are correctly configured if prioritizing certain traffic. Verify that all connected devices are operating at their expected speeds (e.g., Gigabit devices connected to Gigabit ports). Consider Link Aggregation for high-bandwidth connections.

• पहुँच गर्न सकिँदैन Web इन्टरफेस:

  Ensure your computer is on the same network segment as the switch. Verify the switch's IP address. Try resetting the switch to factory defaults using the RST button (this will erase all configurations). Consult the full user manual for default IP and login credentials.

• स्विच खराबी:

  Perform a soft reboot by disconnecting and reconnecting the power. If issues persist, perform a factory reset. If the problem continues, contact DrayTek technical support.
