    These layers are based on the International Standards Organization (ISO) 7-layer reference model. Here is an example of that model. The RS 1000 operates within the layers that are not shaded. Notice that layer 2 is divided into a MAC layer, an LLC layer, and an LLC2 layer. The RS 1000 operates at the MAC and LLC layers.
  • Page 22: Specifications

    Introduction SPECIFICATIONS The RS 1000’s hardware provides high-speed performance regardless of any performance monitoring, filtering, Quality of Service (QoS), or Access Control Lists (ACLs) enabled through the software. Performance is not compromised. The following table lists the RS 1000’s technical specifications.

  • Page 25 Note By default, the RS 1000 uses one MAC address for all interfaces. The RS 1000 can be configured to have a separate MAC address for each IP interface and a separate MAC address for each IPX interface. When the RS 1000 receives a packet whose destination MAC address is one of the RS 1000’s IP or IPX interface MAC addresses, the line card that...
  • Page 26: Layer-4 Switching

    Layer-4 Flows – The RS 1000 can store layer-4 flows on each line card. A layer-4 flow consists of the source and destination addresses in the IP or IPX packet combined with the TCP or UDP source and destination port number (for IP) or the source and destination socket (for IPX).
