Visualization of Network Infrastructure
We recommend using the IFTER EQU software to monitor and visualize the network infrastructure
consisting of METEL switches or other manufacturers. It is an information system for visualization,
integration and management of security systems, building automation systems and their control from
control centers. IFTER EQU has built-in support for I&HAS, EKV, IP CCTV, EPS and MaR building
automation systems. The software allows you to set the response of one system to events that occurred
in another system. One of its basic advantages is the native support of SNMP, MODBUS, BACKNET, OPC
standards without the need to create special drivers. IFTER EQU uses a client-server architecture. Client
workplaces are connected to a central database for storing process data. The flexible client-server
architecture thus enables system management from anywhere on the LAN / WAN.

In addition to IFTER-EQU, LAN-RING switches are supported, for example, in C4 and SBI extensions.

QoS and VLAN according to IEEE 802.1Q
Switches support the creation of virtual private networks and the prioritization of various types of traffic.
SNTP - Simple Network Time Protocol
The switches support the SNTP time protocol and use it, for example, when logging events to the SD card
of the switch.
SMTP - Simple Mail Transfer Protocol
In the Automatic Actions of event management it is possible to set the sending of e-mails on port 25.
RSTP - Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
In addition to the LAN-RING protocol, our switches also support the general RSTP protocol. Compared to
the LAN-RING protocol, it is slower, but it supports the MESH topology and the interconnection of
network elements from various manufacturers.
IP Access Table
Access to switch management can only be restricted to IP addresses listed in the IP Access Table.
LAN-RINGv1 and LAN-RINGv2
LAN-RING v1 and v2 are proprietary protocols optimized for circular topology reconfiguration speed.
Protocol version
Occurrence / Elimination of the Fault
Note
LAN-RINGv2
Switching < 30ms / 0 ms
Support for multi-circuit systems, the total data flow in circles is unlimited.
LAN-RINGv1
Switching < 30ms / < 30ms
Total data flow in rings limited to 1Gbps.
VLAN mode
Description
Fallback
Basic 802.1Q mode. Incoming frames are not dropped if their VLAN VID is not defined in the VLAN table.
Check
The VLAN VID of the incoming frame must be defined in the VLAN table, otherwise it will be discarded.
Secure
The VLAN VID of the incoming frame must be defined in the VLAN table and the input port must be a member of it.
