Management Features
The 716FX2 offers several management functions that can be easily
configured using a web browser.
IGMP Snooping - Internet Group Management Protocol
allows the 716FX2 switch to forward and filter multicast traffic
intelligently.
VLAN - Virtual Local Area Network allows you to segment the
switch in order to create two or more separate local area network
domains.
QoS - Quality of Service provides prioritization of network
traffic in order to provide better network service. QoS improves
the latency of prioritized Ethernet packets required for ring
management, real-time, and other interactive applications.
Port Trunking - Trunking (link aggregation) enables multiple
physical ports to be linked together and function as one uplink to
another N-TRON trunking capable switch configured in the same
manner, thereby increasing the bandwidth between switches. This
configuration can provide increased bandwidth and redundancy to
applications requiring high levels of fault tolerant operation.
Port Mirroring - Allows the traffic on one port to be duplicated
and sent to a designated mirror port. Port mirroring is used to
monitor Ethernet traffic on the designated source port using the
assigned mirror port.
DHCP - DHCP Server / Client automates the assignment of IP
addresses. DHCP Option 82 assures that if a device on a specific
port is replaced, the replacement receives the same IP address as
the original device.
Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol
RSTP allows the switch to be configured in a ring or mesh topology,
and provides support for redundant path communications with high
speed (rapid) healing.
Remote Monitoring Options
For ease of configuration and monitoring, the 716FX2 offers
web browser management and N-View OLE for Process Control
(OPC) server software. The N-TRON N-View software can be
combined with popular HMI software packages to add network
traffic monitoring, trending, and alarming to any application using
N-TRON switches. SNMP is also available for switch link and status
monitoring. The alarm contact and status LED can be configured to
respond to power failure on power input 1 or input 2, N-Ring Broken,
Partial Break High, Partial Break Low, or if multiple Ring managers
are detected.
N-Ring Technology
N-TRON's 716FX2 Ring Manager using N-TRON's N-Ring
technology offers expanded ring size capacity, detailed fault
diagnostics, and a standard healing time of ~30ms. The 716FX2 ring
manager periodically checks the health of the ring via packets. If the
ring manager stops receiving these health check packets, it converts
the ring to a linear topology within ~30ms. When all switches in
the ring are N-TRON fully managed switches, a detailed ring map
and fault location chart will also be provided on the ring manager’s
web browser and OPC server to identfy the health status of the
ring. N-Link™ allows the linking of two N-Rings. Up to 250 fully
managed N-TRON switches can participate in N-Ring topologies.
Industrial Packaging and Specifications
The 716FX2 is designed to operate in industrial environments. It
is housed in a rugged steel DIN-Rail enclosure. It has extended
industrial specifications and features to meet or exceed the operating
parameters of the connected equipment. These include extended
temperature ratings, extended shock and vibration specs, redundant
power inputs, and high MTBF (greater than 2M hours).
Ease of Use
The 10/100BaseTX ports are auto sensing and auto configuring.
Each copper port is automatically negotiated for maximum speed
and performance by default, but can also be hard coded through the
user interface. A high speed processor allows wire speed capability
on all 100BaseTX ports simultaneously.
