Use the web configurator if you are having problems with accessing the NCC. Use this to change the IP
address, VLAN, and port settings, perform ping or traceroute, or download log files to diagnose the
problem.
The factory default IP address is DHCP Client. To find the DHCP-assigned IP address, you must use the
ZON utility or the console port if your model has a console port (see Table 1 on page 8).
Figure 1 NCC Management Example
You can check the system settings via the Web Configurator, the ZON (Zyxel One Network) utility and
the console port.
1.3 Applications
This section shows a few examples of using the NSW in various network environments.
1.3.1 Backbone Application
The NSW is an ideal solution for small networks where rapid growth can be expected in the near future.
The NSW can be used standalone for a group of heavy traffic users. You can connect computers and
servers directly to the NSW’s port or connect other switches to the NSW.
In this example, all computers can share high-speed applications on the server. To expand the network,
simply add more networking devices such as switches, routers, computers, print servers etc.
Chapter 1 Introduction
NSW Series User’s Guide
10
Figure 2 Backbone Application
1.3.2 Bridging Example
In this example, the NSW connects different company departments (RD and Sales) to the corporate
backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All
users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the NSW. You can
provide a super-fast uplink connection by using a Gigabit Ethernet/mini-GBIC port on the NSW.
Moreover, the NSW eases supervision and maintenance by allowing network managers to centralize
multiple servers at a single location.
Figure 3 Bridging Application
Chapter 1 Introduction
NSW Series User’s Guide

1.3.3 IEEE 802.1Q VLAN Application Examples
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical
networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one group. A station can belong to more than one
group. With VLAN, a station cannot directly talk to or hear from stations that are not in the same group(s)
unless such traffic first goes through a router.
For more information on VLANs, refer to Chapter 7 on page 40.
1.3.3.1 Tag-based VLAN Example
Ports in the same VLAN group share the same frame broadcast domain thus increase network
performance through reduced broadcast traffic. VLAN groups can be modified at any time by adding,
moving or changing ports without any re-cabling.
Shared resources such as a server can be used by all ports in the same VLAN as the server. In the
following figure only ports that need access to the server need to be part of VLAN 1. Ports can belong to
other VLAN groups too.
Figure 4 Shared Server Using VLAN Example
1.4 Ways to Manage the NSW
Use any of the following methods to manage the NSW.
NCC. With the NCC, you can remotely manage and monitor the NSW through a cloud-based
network management system. See the NCC User’s Guide for detailed information about how to
access the NCC and manage your NSW via the NCC.
Web Configurator. Use this to troubleshoot the NSW if it cannot connect to the NCC. Manage some
basic NSW settings using a (supported) web browser. See Chapter 4 on page 28.
FTP. Use FTP for firmware upgrades. See Section 8.5.1 on page 51.

1.5 Good Habits for Managing the NSW
Do the following things to make the NSW more secure and to manage the NSW more effectively.
Change the NSW’s password through the NCC occasionally. Use a password that’s not easy to guess
and that consists of different types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
Write down the password and put it in a safe place.

CHAPTER 2
Hardware Installation and
Connection
2.1 Installation Scenarios
This chapter shows you how to install and connect the NSW.
The NSW can be placed on a desktop or rack-mounted on a standard EIA rack. Use the rubber feet in a
desktop installation and the brackets in a rack-mounted installation.
Note: For proper ventilation, allow at least 4 inches (10 cm) of clearance at the front and 3.4
inches (8 cm) at the back of the NSW. This is especially important for enclosed rack
installations.
2.2 Desktop Installation Procedure
1 Make sure the NSW is clean and dry.
2 Set the NSW on a smooth, level surface strong enough to support the weight of the NSW and the
connected cables. Make sure there is a power outlet nearby.
3 Make sure there is enough clearance around the NSW to allow air circulation and the attachment of
cables and the power cord.
4 Remove the adhesive backing from the rubber feet.
5 Attach the rubber feet to each corner on the bottom of the NSW. These rubber feet help protect the
NSW from shock or vibration and ensure space between devices when stacking.
Note: Do NOT block the ventilation holes.
Chapter 2 Hardware Installation and Connection
NSW Series User’s Guide
14
Figure 5 Attaching Rubber Feet
2.3 Mounting the NSW on a Rack
The NSW can be mounted on an EIA standard size, 19-inch rack or in a wiring closet with other
equipment.
Follow the steps below to mount your NSW on a standard EIA rack using a rack-mounting kit.
2.3.1 Rack-mounted Installation Requirements
Two mounting brackets.
Eight M3 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
Four M5 flat head screws and a #2 Philips screwdriver.
Failure to use the proper screws may damage the unit.
2.3.1.1 Precautions
Make sure the rack will safely support the combined weight of all the equipment it contains.
Make sure the position of the NSW does not make the rack unstable or top-heavy. Take all necessary
precautions to anchor the rack securely before installing the unit.
2.3.2 Attaching the Mounting Brackets to the NSW
1 Position a mounting bracket on one side of the NSW, lining up the four screw holes on the bracket with
the screw holes on the side of the NSW.

Figure 7 Attaching the Mounting Brackets (NSW100-28P, NSW100-28 and NSW200-28P)
2 Using a #2 Philips screwdriver, install the M3 flat head screws through the mounting bracket holes into
the NSW.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to install the second mounting bracket on the other side of the NSW.
4 You may now mount the NSW on a rack. Proceed to the next section.
2.3.3 Mounting the NSW on a Rack
1 Position a mounting bracket (that is already attached to the NSW) on one side of the rack, lining up the
two screw holes on the bracket with the screw holes on the side of the rack.

the rack.
3 Repeat steps 1 and 2 to attach the second mounting bracket on the other side of the rack.
Note: Make sure you tighten all the four screws to prevent the NSW from getting slanted.
2.4 Wall Mounting (NSW100-10 only)
The next table summarizes wall mounting specifications.
Do the following to attach your NSW to a wall.
Insecure mounting may damage the device or cause injury. ZyXEL is
not responsible for damages incurred by insecure wall-mounting.

1 Screw the two screws provided with your NSW into the wall 135 mm apart (see Figure 10 on page 17).
See Figure 11 on page 18 for the size of screws to use.
Do not screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the screw
and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the connection cables
to run down the back of the NSW.
Note: Make sure the screws are securely fixed to the wall and strong enough to hold the
weight of the NSW with the connection cables.
2 Align the holes on the back of the NSW with the screws on the wall. Hang the NSW on the screws.
Figure 10 Wall-mounting Example
The NSW should be wall-mounted horizontally. The NSW's side panels
with ventilation slots should not be facing up or down as this position is
less safe.
The following are dimensions of a self-tapping screw and masonry plug used for wall mounting. All
measurements are in millimeters (mm).

CHAPTER 3
Hardware Panels
This chapter describes the front panel and rear panel of the Switch and shows you how to make the
hardware connections.
See Table 1 on page 8, for detailed information about port features of the NSW Series.
3.1 Front Panel
The following figures show the front panels of the NSW.
Figure 12 Front Panel: NSW100-10P
Figure 13 Front Panel: NSW100-10
Figure 14 Front Panel: NSW100-28P
Figure 15 Front Panel: NSW100-28
Figure 16 Front Panel: NSW200-28P
3.1.1 Gigabit Ethernet Ports
See Table 1 on page 8, for detailed information about port features of the NSW Series.
The NSW has 1000Base-T auto-negotiating, auto-crossover Ethernet ports. In 10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit
Ethernet, the speed can be 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps or 1000 Mbps. The duplex mode can be half duplex or
full duplex.
Chapter 3 Hardware Panels
NSW Series User’s Guide
20
An auto-negotiating port can detect and adjust to the optimum Ethernet speed (10/100/1000 Mbps)
and duplex mode (full duplex or half duplex) of the connected device.
An auto-crossover (auto-MDI/MDI-X) port automatically works with a straight-through or crossover
Ethernet cable.
When auto-negotiation is turned on, an Ethernet port negotiates with the peer automatically to
determine the connection speed and duplex mode. If the peer Ethernet port does not support auto-
negotiation or turns off this feature, the NSW determines the connection speed by detecting the signal
on the cable and using half duplex mode. When the NSW’s auto-negotiation is turned off, an Ethernet
port uses the pre-configured speed and duplex mode when making a connection, thus requiring you to
make sure that the settings of the peer Ethernet port are the same in order to connect.
3.1.1.1 Default Ethernet Negotiation Settings
The factory default negotiation settings for the Gigabit ports on the NSW are:
Speed: Auto
•Duplex: Auto
Flow control: Off
Link Aggregation: Disabled
3.1.1.2 Auto-crossover
All ports are auto-crossover, that is auto-MDIX ports (Media Dependent Interface Crossover), so you may
use either a straight-through Ethernet cable or crossover Ethernet cable for all Gigabit port connections.
Auto-crossover ports automatically sense whether they need to function as crossover or straight ports, so
crossover cables can connect both computers and switches/hubs.
3.1.2 PoE
The NSW supports both the IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE) and IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet
(PoE) plus standards. The NSW is a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) because it provides a source of
power via its Ethernet ports. Each device that receives power through an Ethernet port is a Powered
Device (PD).
See Table 1 on page 8 for detailed information about PoE maximum power of each model.
3.1.3 Combo Port
A combo port is for uplink connections. It consists of a Gigabit Ethernet port for Ethernet connection,
and a transceiver slot for fiber connection. The fiber connection takes priority if the corresponding
Gigabit port is also connected.
10/100/1000 Mbps Gigabit Ports - Connect these ports to high-bandwidth backbone network
Ethernet switches using 1000BASE-T compatible Category 5/5e/6 copper cables.
Transceiver Slots - Use SFP in these slots for connections to backbone Ethernet switches.
