Industrial Managed Switches: Function Overview
Administration and diagnostics, availability, security, data transfer and performance: An overview of all functions of the industrial managed switch
Configuration via command line (SSH, Telnet, RS-232)
Network management via SNMP v1, v2, v3
Support of MIB standards (Management Information Base)
Diagnostics via Modbus TCP: Numerous information available for easy diagnostics via MODBUS
DDM (Digital Diagnostic Monitoring)
Automatically detects a connected SFP module
Detailed module information
Real-time monitoring - Temperature - Power supply - Transmission power - Reception power
Monitoring and Diagnostics
Simplified Maintenance:
Port mirroring: Mirroring the network traffic
LLDP: Automatic detection of adjacent devices
Email notifications
Availability
Via communication redundancy
Jet Ring
Typical switching time < 300 ms (depends on the application)
Extremely easy configuration
Up to 20 participants (fast aging) in a jet ring
Xpress Ring and Dual Ring
Xpress Ring:
Switching time < 20 ms
Easy configuration
Up to 200 switches in one Xpress ring
Two Xpress rings per switch
Dual Ring:
Combination of both redundancy types
1 jet ring and 1 Xpress ring per switch or 2 Xpress rings per switch
ERPS (ETHERNET Ring Protection Switching)
The Fast and Open Solution:
Standardized and open technology
Switching time < 50 ms
Nested topologies with up to six rings per switch
Realization of a one-fault tolerance (SPOF – Single Point of Failure)
ERPS – Enhancement Mode:
WAGO's devices with integrated switches and fast aging configuration
Typical switching time < 300 ms (depends on the application)
Security
Absolutely Secure Industrial Networks
IEEE 802.1X Authentication
The Security Standard of IT Networks: Secure authentication and authorization in ETHERNET networks (locally on the switch or via RADIUS server).
Process:
Authentication of a subscriber is performed by the authenticator.
The authenticator checks the authentication information of the subscriber (supplicant) with an authentication server.
Firewall – Access Control List
Authorization only for the required services
Filtering data packets due to:
a source MAC or source IP address
a destination MAC or destination IP address
a range of MAC or IP addresses
UDP/TCP source or destination ports
Port Security
Dynamically learns MAC addresses per port
Limitation of MAC addresses per port
MAC-based white/black list per port
Data Transmission
Streamlined ETHERNET Networks
Logical Network Disconnection
VLAN (e.g., per IEEE 802.1Q)
Segmentation in logical, virtual networks:
Broadcast limitation
Security improvement
Data flow prioritization
Subdivision of machines and office networks, for example
IP-Based VLAN
Routing of data packets between VLANs via IP address
Communication from one participant to two or more VLANs
Economic connection of networks to higher-level routers
Prioritization of data packets via IP address
MAC-Based VLAN
Assignment of data packets to a VLAN via MAC address
Prioritization of data packets via MAC address
Performance
Streamlined ETHERNET Networks
Network Optimization
LACP link aggregation
Merge multiple data connections into a single logical link:
Increase transmission rate
Link redundancy
Traffic Prioritization and Limitation
Faster transfer of important data packets through the switch
Prioritization of data packets per IEEE 802.1 Q
Limitation of the bandwidth or number of packets per unit of time per port
Increase in data transmission quality
Mastering Data Traffic
Stopping broadcast storms
Ensuring network availability
Limitating broadcast and multicast data flows (packets/time)
