Figure 1-10 Configuring a Ring Network Access Device
A management VLAN is used for the switch management. An IP address and default gateway need to be configured for
the management VLAN. After configuration, you need to access the management IP address to manage the switch. Port
GI0/1 is the management port by default.
A data VLAN is used for devices in the user data communication network, such as the front-end PC or camera. Data
VLANs differ from management VLANs, but they can use the same VLAN ID.
In the ERPS configuration, set an ID of the VLAN that needs ERPS and select two ports for connecting to the ERPS ring
network.
The SNMP service is disabled by default. You can enable it and configure the trap host and SNMP password (community
attributes).
The time synchronization function is enabled by default. You need to configure the IP address of the NTP server to
synchronize the system time. The NTP server can be deployed on the upper-level core switch/router or on the server. If a
device is capable of accessing the Internet, the public NTP server on the Internet can be used.
The configuration of a star network access device includes the VLAN settings, upper connector settings, SNMP settings,
and time synchronization settings, as shown in the figure below.
