CrossFire 8600/8605 Token-Ring Switches v. 1.2, P/N: 710001641
Switch Configuration
Switched Port Analyzer Menu
The Switched Port Analyzer screen is accessed from the Configuration menu.
This screen and its submenus are presented in Chapter 9, “Monitoring Port Traffic”.
CrossLink
A CrossLink connection is used to improve interswitch bandwidth. A CrossLink is
used to connect two switches from the CrossFire 8600 series with two to eight links.
A CrossLink provides bandwidth of from 32 to 128 Mbps in half-duplex mode, or
from 64 to 256 Mbps in full-duplex mode.
Figure 22.
Setting up CrossLinks
The CrossLink feature affects other switch features in the following ways:
•
Half-duplex and full-duplex. A single CrossLink can include a combination of
half-duplex and full-duplex connections—for example, a CrossLink
containing three ports can have two full-duplex and one half-duplex
connections. However, each pair of interconnected ports must both be either
half-duplex or full-duplex.
•
Statistics reporting. Statistics for the CrossLink are displayed for individual
ports, not for the CrossLink as a whole. Station addresses are distributed
among the ports in the CrossLink. See Chapter 7, “Monitoring the Network
with the Console”.
•
Address filtering. Address filters are automatically added to every port in a
CrossLink.
