Software Function

Long Range	Ports 1 to 24: up to 300 m. Long range performance may vary depend on camera model or cable condition.
Port Isolation	Ports 1 to 24: port isolation mode to improve network security. Ports in an isolation group cannot communicate with each other, but they can communicate with ports outside the isolation group.
PoE Watchdog	Ports 1 to 24: auto detect and restart the cameras that do not respond.
Link Aggregation	Link aggregation is used to aggregate multiple physical ports to form a logical port for load balancing, bandwidth expansion, and port protection. Support static link aggregation. Support 8 aggregation groups.
QoS	QoS is used to allocate bandwidth to different services so as to provide end-to-end service quality assurance. Support port-based priority configuration. Support SP, WRR priority schedule mode.
Loop Prevention	Loop prevention is used to prevent the switching network from forming loops, which will seriously affect network communication. Disabled by default. Support 802.1D STP.
VLAN	VLAN is used for network scale planning and network health improvement. Support 802.1Q. Configurable VLAN ID from 1-4094. Support Trunk, Access port mode. Support Max. 4094 VLAN.
HPP	Support one-click activation and remote management via Hik-Partner Pro. Functions supported: 1. Display the port rate. 2. Display the port bandwidth utilization rate. 3. Display topology information. 4. Display the alarm status. 5. Restart ports and devices. 6. Remotely upgrade the device.
System Maintenance	Remote upgrade, default parameters recovery, logs viewing, basic network parameters configuration, import and export configuration, time sync
Port Rate-Limiting	Port rate-limiting is used for port bandwidth adjustment to prevent network congestion.
Storm Control	Storm control is used to prevent switch ports from being blocked by broadcast or multicast storms in the LAN, which may affect network communication. Support port rate limiting based on broadcast, multicast, and unknown unicast packets.

PRACTICAL ANSWERS

Network planning questions

Should I choose a router, a switch or an access point?

Start with the task: connecting networks, adding wired device ports, or providing wireless coverage. A single installation may need more than one device type. Share a site diagram and device list so the proposed roles and connections are clear.

Why is wireless coverage weak in some rooms?

Check the access point location, building layout, obstacles and the number of active devices. Measure coverage where people actually work before choosing extra equipment; changing the internet package alone may not address a coverage problem.

How do I select a switch for powered network devices?

List the devices to be connected and check each device’s power requirements against the switch’s per-port capability and total documented power budget. Also review uplink capacity and reserve ports for the expansion you actually expect.

Can the guest network be separated from business devices?

Define which devices and services guests should be able to reach, then check whether the router, switch and access points support the required separation. Test the resulting access rules; a different wireless network name alone is not the acceptance test.

What information helps plan a network upgrade?

Provide floor plans, current equipment models, internet connections, cabling details and peak device counts. Describe the applications that matter most and the observed problem, such as disconnections or slow local file access.

How should network performance be checked after installation?

Agree on the locations and representative workloads to test, then record wired and wireless results separately. Check connectivity, coverage and access rules during normal use, and retain a diagram and configuration backup for support.
