Why link up&down messages appear in the NCC event log but they didn't show on my syslog server?
If you're not seeing link-up and link-down messages on your Syslog server, it might be because your Syslog server is set to filter out "debug" level messages. These messages are important for link status. To fix this, check your syslog server settings and make sure it's configured to include "debug" level messages. Once…

What should I do if I encounter error 0x246 while importing a p12 certificate into the GS1900-24 ?
This error occurs because the GS1900 series only supports RSA algorithm certificates and it does not support ECDSA algorithm certificates. To solve this, please use the RSA algorithm to generate the certificate file.

What does the Disable "active" option in the PoE settings of Zyxel switches do?
The disable "active" option in the Power over Ethernet (PoE) settings of Zyxel switches allows administrators to manually disable the power supply to connected PoE devices on specific ports. When the switch 'port is set to inactive, the switch will not send the signal to detect PD, and also not deliver power.
-
What does the "Disable PD"(Powered Device) option in the PoE settings of Zyxel switches do?
The "Disable PD"(Powered Device)option in the Power over Ethernet (PoE) settings will not allow the switch to try to detect PD. In other words, the switch won't send any pulse signal for detection, so the switch will not supply any power to PD.

How can I change the auto log off (session timeout) settings on my GS1900-24E Zyxel switch?
To adjust the auto logoff settings on the GS1900-24E, follow these steps: Log into your switch's web interface. Configure > Management > HTTP/HTTPS. In this section, you can change the session timeout value. This value determines how long the web interface will remain active without user interaction before automatically…

What if the default management IP address of the GS1900 switch has been changed and I forget it?
If the management IP address has been changed and forgotten, you can use the Zyxel Network Orchestrator (ZON) Utility to find the switch’s IP address. This tool helps in identifying and managing Zyxel devices on the network. Here is the ZON download link: Zyxel ONE Network Utility | Zyxel Networks

What is the default IP address to access the Zyxel GS1900's web GUI?
The default IP address for accessing the web GUI of the Zyxel GS1900 switch is 192.168.1.1 Make sure the PC you are using for access is in the same subnet. The more information you can refer below picture
-
Can I access the GUI configuration of a Zyxel GS1900 switch without connecting it to a router?
Yes, it is possible to access the GUI configuration of the Zyxel GS1900 switch even when it's not connected to a router. The switch can be accessed directly using its default IP address.
-
Is it necessary to use the same model of switches in a ring for effective RSTP implementation?
To achieve the best results, especially with Fast Ring Protection, it's recommended to use only RGS200-12P switches in the ring. This ensures uniform performance and compatibility across the network.
-
Can Fast Ring Protection be effectively utilized with RGS200-12P switches?
Yes, Fast Ring Protection is an efficient solution for rings with less than 128 units. This feature ensures a recovery time of less than 20ms, but its effectiveness is guaranteed only when the total number of units in a ring is less than 128.
-
What are the limitations when using RSTP with RGS200-12P switches in large networks?
The main limitation is the maximum number of switches in an RSTP ring, which is capped at 16. Exceeding this can lead to STP convergence issues, potentially destabilizing the network.

Why does ZON display the IP address as 0.0.0.0 under these conditions?
1.Mismatched VLAN Configuration: When a PC is connected to a switch port with a PVID (Port VLAN ID) that differs from the switch's Management VLAN, ZON is unable to display a valid IP address due to the VLAN mismatch. For example, if the switch's management VLAN is 1, but the PC is connected to a port with PVID 100, and…

What happens when a PC connect to a switch port with other PVID rather than switch management VLAN?
When a PC connect to a switch port configured with PVID 10 while the switch management VLAN is 1, scanning with ZON (Zyxel One Network Utility) shows the IP address as 0.0.0.0. This scenario often arises due to the discrepancy between the management VLAN and the VLAN assigned to the specific port. Due to the difference,…
