Description of Software Features

The switch provides a wide range of advanced performance enhancing
features. Flow control eliminates the loss of packets due to bottlenecks
caused by port saturation. Broadcast storm suppression prevents broadcast
traffic storms from engulfing the network. Untagged (port-based) and
tagged VLANs, plus support for automatic GVRP VLAN registration
provide traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth. CoS
