Shared link mode
In the
"shared link mode",
each LAN can view and talk to other LANs. Example: each LAN
can view and talk to all other LANs at same site or the corresponding remote side. This mode
may be selected for use if bandwidth optimization and usage is of prime importance and the
user is not averse to sharing the E1 link resources with the other LANs being transported on the
same E1 link.
For example all four Ethernet Ports at local site are in LAN Mode and will also communicate to
all four Ethernet Ports at far end site.
Typical Application
Note:
In the "shared link mode", the VLAN switch must be OFF (The ethernet ports are not
isolated to each other on both sides of the E1 link).
Note:
Each DIP Switch is ON in downside and OFF in Upside.
