Store-and-Forward
Store-and-Forward is one type of packet-forwarding techniques.
A Store-and Forward Ethernet Switching stores the incoming
frame in an Internal buffer, do the complete error checking
before transmission. therefore, no error packets occurrence, it is
the best choice when a network needs efficiency and stability.
The 16/24-port Ethernet Switching scans the destination address
from The packet-header, searches the routing table provided for
the incoming Port and forwards the packet, only if required. The
fast forwarding makes the switch attractive for connecting
serves directly to the network, thereby increasing throughput
and availability. However, the switch is most commonly used to
segment existing hubs, which nearly always improves overall
performance. A Ethernet Switching can be easily configured in
any Ethernet network environment to significantly boost
bandwidth using Conventional cabling and adapters
.
Due to the learning function of the Ethernet switching, the
source and corresponding port number of each incoming and
outgoing packet are stored in a routing table. This information
is subsequently used to filter packets whose destination address
is on the same segment as the source address. This confines
network traffic to its respective domain, reducing the overall
load on the network.
The 16/24-port Ethernet Switching performs Store and forward
therefore, no error packets occur. More reliably, it reduces the
retransmission rate. No packet loss will occur.
