Switch Architecture
The Gigabit Ethernet Switches employ a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric.
This permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on
all ports. These switches also feature full duplex capability on all ports, which
effectively doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
For communications between different VLANs, these switches use IP routing. For
communications within the same VLAN, they use store-and-forward switching to
ensure maximum data integrity. With store-and-forward switching, the entire packet
must be received into a buffer and checked for validity before being forwarded. This
prevents errors from being propagated throughout the network.
These switches include built-in stacking ports that enable up to eight units to be
connected together through a 40 Gbps stack backplane. The switch stack can be
managed from a master unit using a single IP address.
These switches include a slot on the rear panel for slide-in single-port 10GBASE
modules with Xenpak transceivers.
Network Management Options
These switches contain a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a-glance” monitoring
of network and port status. They also include a management agent that allows you
to configure or monitor the switch using its embedded management software, or via
SNMP applications. To manage each switch, you can make a direct connection to
the RS-232 console port (out-of-band), or you can manage the switches through a
network connection (in-band) using Telnet, the on-board Web agent, or
SNMP-based network management software.
For a detailed description of both switches’ advanced features, refer to the Gigabit
Ethernet Switch Management Guide.
