Using Line-Swap-Fast-Recovery
The Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, which is enabled by default, allows EDS-726 to return to
normal operation extremely quickly after devices are unplugged and then re-plugged into different
ports. The recovery time is on the order of a few milliseconds (compare this with standard
commercial switches for which the recovery time could be on the order of several minutes). To
disable the Line-Swap Fast Recovery function, or to re-enable the function after it has already
been disabled, access either the Console utility’s Line-Swap recovery page, or the Web Browser
interface’s Line-Swap fast recovery page, as shown below.

Using Set Device IP
To reduce the effort required to set up IP addresses, the EDS-726 series comes equipped with
DHCP/BootP server and RARP protocol to set up IP addresses of Ethernet-enabled devices
automatically.
When enabled, the Set device IP function allows EDS-726 to assign specific IP addresses
automatically to connected devices that are equipped with DHCP Client or RARP protocol. In
effect, EDS-726 acts as a DHCP server by assigning a connected device with a specific IP address
stored in its internal memory. Each time the connected device is switched on or rebooted,
EDS-726 sends the device the desired IP address.
Take the following steps to use the Set device IP function:
