Using the Business Policy Switch 2000 Version 2.0
The Business Policy Switch 2000 uses DiffServ to manage network traffic and
resources. The information that is required to support DiffServ and multi-field
classification is transferred using the Common Open Policy Services (COPS)
protocol. COPS is a query and response protocol that exchanges policy
information messages using the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). All
configuration can be performed using SNMP, the CLI, and the Web-based
interface. The BPS2000 switch can interoperate with the Nortel Networks

Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs)
In a traditional shared-media network, traffic generated by a station is transmitted
to all other stations on the local segment. Therefore, for any given station on the
shared Ethernet, the local segment is the
collision domain
because traffic on the
segment has the potential to cause an Ethernet collision. The local segment is also
the
broadcast domain
because any broadcast is sent to all stations on the local
Note:
