1. Applications

The GigaCore 30i is an Ethernet switch dedicated to AV integration, installation and touring, designed tosupport the most advanced AV protocols.
In combination with the Araneo software platform, GigaCore 30i is the ideal solution to deploy an entire AV
network with one click in any fixed installation.
Each GigaCore can be configured through an intuitive built-in AV Web-UI but also, System-wide consistent
management across the Luminex network is possible with the Araneo network monitoring, planning andmanagement software. Araneo will boost your productivity and confidence in the network and reduce
commissioning times significantly.
GigaCore 30i is an indispensable part of any AV network where reliability and a quick and easy setup areneeded.
As a user, you don’t need to make choices nor trade-offs as GigaCore handles most AV protocols for youout of the box: Pre-defined QoS/DiffServ (Quality of Service) settings, optimized IGMP (Internet GroupManagement Protocol) per group (VLAN) and pre-defined yet editable groups (VLANs) to easily separate
your network in different applications making converged networks obvious, easy and reliable. Also
included out of the box is the advanced, automated redundancy protocol RLinkX that ensures redundant
links and ring topology within your GigaCore network.
Bandwidth, connectivity, and port availability are not an issue anymore with 6 x independent SFP+ ports
capable of data transfer speeds of up to 10 Gbps (depending on the model) and 24 x 1Gbps copper ports.
Time synchronization is crucial in many applications and with GigaCore 30i you have a hassle free PTPv2
enabled switch which will work for most major audio protocols (e.g. AES67, ST2110, Dante , Q-sys/Q-lan,…) without the need for making any complicated device settings.
Entertainment installations constantly push the limits, and the need to deploy PoE powered devices is
continuously increasing. GigaCore 30i provides an answer to these scenarios by offering PoE++ on all ports(90W per port with a total PoE budget of up to 1000W ) as an option.
With 2 available slots to accept optional hot swappable slide-in power supply units, the question of
redundant power is solved in one and the same 1U rack space.
Great care has been taken to ensure silent operation by means of intelligent fan control, giving you moreinstall options with peace of mind that no live audience or recording session would be disturbed.
For installations where a clean front panel is required, an optional 19” flush mount LED panel can beconnected to a rear-mounted GigaCore 30i.

3. Configuration

In the next paragraphs we will describe how to configure your GigaCore switch via the build-in web
interface. Alternatively, you can configure your switch using Araneo. Araneo is available for Windows and
MacOS and can be found in the download section of our website: http://www.luminex.be/downloadaraneo/.
PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, THE WEB INTERFACE OF A SWITCH CAN ONLY BE REACHED THROUGH A
PORT ASSIGNED IN THE MANAGEMENT GROUP (FROM THE SWITCH YOU ARE CONNECTED TO, OR
FROM ANOTHER SWITCH THROUGH AN ISL PORT). YOU NEED AT LEAST ONE PORT ASSIGNED TO
THE MANAGEMENT GROUP IN YOUR ENTIRE NETWORK TO REACH THE WEB INTERFACE OF ALL YOUR
GIGACORE SWITCHES.
FACTORY DEFAULT, ALL PORTS ARE ASSIGNED TO THE MANAGEMENT GROUP.

3.2 Groups/Trunks

Groups is a technology which offers the user to easily segment the network into several virtual networks(VLANs). This menu allows the user to assign ports to one of the 20 embedded groups of the switch.
A group is a combination of ports and the user can assign as many ports to a group as they require.
The GigaCore range offers several types of groups:








Trunk 1 (ISL):
This group is dedicated to the Inter Switch Link (Trunk). This is the name given to the interconnection
links between GigaCore switches in a network. The ISL links are meant to forward the group-based
packets for the default 20 pre-defined groups.
Custom Trunk:
The GigaCore 30i offers the user to create custom trunks.
Group 1 (Management):
This group is dedicated to the management of the switch (web interface). You need to have at least one
port of the switch assigned to the management group in order to be able to reach the web interface. Ina star, ring or mesh network topology comprised of GigaCore switches, you need to have at least one
port on one of the switches set to this group in order to be able to reach the web interface of any of theswitches.
Group 2 onwards:
These are the generic groups to be used for any purpose such as sound, lighting, intercom, video....
The GigaCore 30i offers 20 pre-defined groups but if required, the user can add more groups in the Editgroups section.

To assign ports to a group, please follow the following steps:
1. Select the group you wish to assign ports to.
2. Select the ports you wish to assign to the group. Selected ports will be highlighted.
3. Click Apply to assign the ports to the group. The selected ports will now change to the colour of theselected group.

Password: No password

DEVICE INFO
The device info window shows: Model.
 MAC address.
 Serial number of your device.
GENERAL POE SETTINGS
The general PoE settings allow you to set:


24Power allocation:
Consumption, the actual consumed power is being used to determine the maximum output power.
Reserved, the class is used to reserve the maximum allowed power for that class to determine themaximum output power.

3 | Configuration

Power mode:
Redundant, the second PSU is used as redundancy in case an error occurs with the first PSU.
Shared, the output power of both PSU’s is combined to offer a higher total output power available
across all the switch ports.

If the switch does not support PoE, this section is greyed out.
SNMP
Enable/disable SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol). Here you can configure whether you want
to use SNMP. By default SNMP is disabled.
DEFAULT PROFILE
By clicking the check-box, the user can protect the profile stored in slot #1 from being deleted or
overwritten.
When the user performs a Reload Defaults from the front panel mode button (see Reload Default in the
Reset chapter of this manual), the device will reboot into profile #1. This is a handy tool to quickly recall
your favourite profile.
Once the first profile is protected and set as default, a padlock will appear on slot 1 on the profile tab.
LED BRIGHTNESSThe LED slider allows you to change the brightness of the port mode LEDs and the status LEDs on the
GigaCore. The port mode LEDs can be dimmed to OFF but the status LEDs will always stay visible.
