  • Page 25 Aggregation-enabled devices treat all physical links (ports) in an aggregation group entirely as a single logical link (port). Member ports in an aggregation group share egress/ingress traffic load, delivering a bandwidth that is multiple of a single physical link. Link aggregation provides redundancy in case one of the links fails, thus reliability could be maintained.

    treated as in the same broadcast domain and communicate as if they were on the same net segment, regardless of their physical locations. Logically, a VLAN can be equated to a broadcast domain, because broadcast packets are forwarded to only members of the VLAN on which the broadcast was initiated. Different VLANs cannot intercommunicate directly.

The ToS field includes 8 bits, among which: The first 3 bits denotes the IP priority, with available values ranging from 0 to 7.
  • Page 42 Strict Priority Queuing is specially designed to meet the demands of critical services or applications. Critical services or applications such as voice are delay-sensitive and thus require to be dequeued and sent first before packets in other queues are dequeued on a congested network. For example, assume that 4 egress queues 3, 2, 1 and 0 with descending priority are configured on a port.
  • Page 43 values of WRR queue-scheduling algorithm to 50, 30, 10 and 10(corresponding to w3, w2, w1, and w0 respectively). Then the queue with the lowest priority can be ensured of, at least, 10 Mbps bandwidth, thus avoiding the disadvantage of SP queue-scheduling algorithm that packets in low-priority queues may not be served during a long time.

    then port2. Depending on configured priority levels, packets from ports with lower priority level are always forwarded only after packets from ports with higher priority level have all been forwarded; However in WRR QoS mode, if you specify weight values: High=7; Low=1, then when the 2 ports simultaneously transmit packets to one port, the receiving port will forward packets according to traffic ratio of 7:1.

  • Page 48 Principle of IGMP snooping By listening to the conversations between hosts and routers, the switch maintains a map of which links need which IP multicast streams. Multicast streams may be filtered from the links which do not solicit them. An IGMP-Snooping-disabled layer-2 device will flood multicast traffic to all the ports in a broadcast domain (or the VLAN equivalent).
  • Page 49: Snmp

    The switch also performs the following actions on the port that received the IGMP leave message: If the port receives any IGMP membership report in response to the group-specific query before the aging timer expires, the switch considers that some host attached to the port is receiving or expecting to receive multicast data from that multicast group and will reset the aging timer on the port.

    SNMP agent—Works on a managed network device (such a switch) to receive and handle requests from the NMS, and send traps to the NMS when some events occur. Upon receiving GetRequest, GetNextRequest and SetRequest packets from NMS, the SNMP agent will perform Read or Write operations on managed objects depending on the type of packets received and generate Response packets to return to NMS.
