Using Line-Swap-Fast-Recovery
The Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, which is enabled by default, allows PT-7728 to return to
normal operation extremely quickly after devices are unplugged and then re-plugged into different
ports. The recovery time is on the order of a few milliseconds (compare this with standard
commercial switches for which the recovery time could be on the order of several minutes). To
disable the Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, or to re-enable the function after it has already
been disabled, access either the Console utility’s
Line-Swap recovery
page, or the Web Browser
interface’s
Line-Swap fast recovery
page, as shown below.

Using Set Device IP
To reduce the effort required to set up IP addresses, the PT-7728 comes equipped with
DHCP/BootP server and RARP protocol to set up IP addresses of Ethernet-enabled devices
automatically.
When enabled, the
Set device IP
function allows PT-7728 to assign specific IP addresses
automatically to connected devices that are equipped with
DHCP Client
or
RARP
protocol. In

stored in its internal memory. Each time the connected device is switched on or rebooted, PT-7728
sends the device the desired IP address.
Take the following steps to use the
Set device IP
function:
