Page 28: Ethernet Switching Basics
Overview Ethernet Switching Basics An Ethernet switch interconnects network devices, such as workstations, printers, routers, and other Ethernet switches, so that they can communicate with each other by sending and receiving Ethernet frames. MAC Address Every hardware device on your network has a unique MAC address. This address is assigned to the device by the device’s manufacturer. -
Page 29: Duplex Mode
AT-9000 Managed Layer 2 GE ecoSwitch Series Installation Guide Duplex Mode Duplex mode refers to how an end node receives and transmits data. If an end node can receive or transmit data, but not both simultaneously, it is operating in what is referred to as half-duplex mode. If an end node can both receive and transmit data simultaneously, the end node is said to be operating in full-duplex mode. - Page 30 Overview sending data. This can occur under several circumstances. For example, if two end nodes are operating at different speeds, the switch, while transferring data between the end nodes, might need to instruct the faster end node to stop transmitting data to allow the slower end node to catch up.
