Bandwidth control allows you to set the maximum bandwidth allowed on a port.
1.2 Applications
This section shows a few examples of using the Switch in various network environments.
1.2.1 Bridging Application
In this example the Switch connects different company departments (
RD
and
Sales
) to the corporate
backbone. It can alleviate bandwidth contention and eliminate server and network bottlenecks. All
users that need high bandwidth can connect to high-speed department servers via the Switch.
