Rate Limiting 

 
Rate limiting can be applied to traffic being inputted and/or outputted through the 
paddleboard  ports.    It  is  individually  configurable  for  each  access  port,  and  for 
each  direction  (input  and  output).    The  selectable  rate  limit  values  range  from 
128kb/s to 800Mb/s. 
 
For 

input  rate  limiting

,  the  user  can  define  up  to  three  rate  limit  values  and 

respective  sets  of  criteria  (rules)  that  will  specify  the  frames  to  which  the 
respective  rate  limit  will  be  applied.    Each  set  of  criteria  includes  the  specific 
frame  type(s)  (unicast,  multicast,  broadcast)  and  source  priorities.    The  frames 
that  do  not  meet  any  of  the  configured  (up  to  three)  sets  of criteria are not rate 
limited. 
 

Output rate limiting

, if enabled, applies to all frames being outputted through the 

given port regardless of their type (broadcast, multicast or unicast) and priority. 
 
 

Ethernet Port Interfaces 

 

RJ-45 Interface 

 

Each RJ-45 port can auto-negotiate (when the feature is enabled) the maximum 
data transfer speed (10 or 100 Mb/s) and mode (half or full duplex) with the far-
end device on the local LAN.  When the device does not support auto-negotiation 
and the ETHER-

1000 unit‟s auto-negotiation for the port is enabled, the unit uses 

the  incoming  signal's  speed  and  half-duplex  mode.    With  auto-negotiation 
disabled, the user can configure the mode and speed as desired.  In addition, the 
RJ-45 ports support MDI/MDIX auto-sensing (if enabled). 

 

Ethernet frames are discarded if too short (< 64 bytes), if too long (> 1632 bytes), 
or  if  the  CRC  error-check  fails.    Ethernet  errors  are  monitored  and  reported 
through VistaNET software. 

 

In  half-duplex  mode,  collisions  between  Ethernet  frames  are  expected  to  occur.  
The standard IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD algorithm is used to handle colliding frames. 

 

RJ-45  ports  are  available  on  86418-61  and  86418-64  quad-port  modules, 
equipped with four and two RJ-45 ports, respectively. 
 

Optical Interface 

 

Optical  Ethernet  interface  can  be  either  1000  Mb/s  full  duplex  or  100  Mb/s  full 
duplex.
