The Alteon Web Switch
An Alteon Web switch attaches to the network backbone and interconnects servers using
10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1,000 Mbps Ethernet connections. This flexibility off loads server-to-
server traffic from the backbone, frees backbone bandwidth, and accelerates client-server
performance.
This chapter describes the operational and physical features of the Alteon Web switch
hardware.
