advantage by fulfilling the present requirements as well as benefiting from the multiple
choices of modules to support future expansion as the network evolves. The dual Gigabit
port option in modular slot boosts the bandwidth for high speed to support the peak
traffic and minimize congestion.
Example 3 Redundant Application
In a redundant application for high network availability where a rack-
mountable managed switch with over 24 ports is required with dense port
features, Magnum 6K32’s equipped with redundant LAN features like S-Ring,
RSTP, Link-Loss-Learn and various security features are easily qualified for the
application. The -48VDC input power option with Dual Source is a useful
option in telecom central offices.
The Magnum 6K32 with two Gigabit ports in the modular slot allows it
to connect into a Gb mesh structure with RSTP and S-Ring combo used in a no-
single-point-of-failure self-healing LAN topology along with a ring of multiple
6K25s at the edge to efficiently recover from a fault in the network. The
industry standard Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol 802.1d is used in top eight
switches (see diagram below) to perform GB mesh fault recovery, whereas the
bottom ring setup has been configured with S-Ring and Link-Loss-Learn for
faster recovery in a big ring.
A redundant LAN setup not only provides a reliable recovery solution
