    Below is additional information about tasks that the switch performs during unicast and multicast switching. UNICAST SWITCHING VLAN CLASSIFICATION When the switch receives a frame, it classifies the frame in one of two ways: If the frame is untagged, the switch classifies the frame to an associated VLAN.
  • Page 12 If the frame is tagged, the switch uses the tagged VLAN ID to identify the broadcasting domain of the frame. LEARNING After VLAN classification, the switch checks the <source MAC address, VLAN> pair in the switching database (SDB) to see whether the <source MAC address, VLAN>...
  • Page 13 MULTICAST SWITCHING For multicast switching, the switch checks whether the received frame is a BPDU. If a BPDU is received, the switch forwards the frame to the CPU for processing by the spanning tree protocol. Otherwise, the switch performs the following processes: VLAN CLASSIFICATION Same as for unicast switching.
  • Page 14 Whether the source MAC address or destination MAC address is to be filtered. Whether the source port ID is the same as destination port If any of these conditions are met, the switch drops the receiving. Otherwise, it continues with the forwarding process described below.
  • Page 15: Vlan

    1.2.6 VLAN A virtual LAN (VLAN) is a network of computers that behave as if they are connected to the same wire, even though they may actually be physically located on different segments of a LAN. VLANs are analogous to a group of end stations, perhaps on...
  • Page 16 In traditional networks, traffic broadcasts to all network devices, whether they are the intended recipients or not. However, VLANs can be set up to contain only those devices that need to communicate with each other. As a result, VLANs significantly reduce network congestion.
  • Page 17 Port-based VLANs are organized by physical port number. For example, switch ports 1, 2, 4 and 6 can be grouped on VLAN, while server ports 3, 5, 7 and 8 can be on another VLAN. Broadcasts from servers within each group would only go to the members of its own VLAN.
  • Page 18 GVRP is used to communicate VLAN registration information to other VLAN-aware switches, so that a VLAN member can cover a wide span of switches on a network. GVRP allows both VLAN-aware workstations and switches to issue and revoke VLAN memberships. VLAN-aware switches register an propagate VLAN membership to all ports that belong to the active topology of the VLAN.
  • Page 19: Class-Of-Service (Cos) Support

    1.2.7 Class-of-Service (CoS) Support The switch provides four transmit queues on each port, with a weighted round-robin scheme. These functions can be used to provide independent priorities for various types of data including real-time video, real-time voice, and best-effort data.
  • Page 20: Igmp Snooping And Ip Multicast Filtering

    Routers periodically query the LAN to determine if known group members are still active. If there is more than one router on the LAN performing IP multicasting, one of the routers is elected “querier” and assumes the responsibility of querying the LAN for group members.
  • Page 21: Switch Management

    Note, however, IGMP neither alters nor routes any IP multicast packets. Since IGMP is not concerned with the delivery of IP multicast packets across subnetworks, an external IP multicast router is needed if IP multicast packets have to be routed across different subnetworks. 1.2.10 Switch Management...

  • Page 28: Connecting To Power

    2.3 Connecting to Power Step 1: Connect the supplied AC power cord to the receptacle on the back of the switch, and then plug it into a standard AC outlet with a voltage range from 100 to 240 Vac. Step 2: Disconnect the power cord if you want to shut down the switch.

    The administration console is an internal, character-oriented, menu-driven user interface for performing system administration such as displaying statistics or changing option settings. Using this method, you can view the administration console from a terminal, personal computer, Apple Macintosh, or workstation connected to the switch’s console port.
  • Page 36 The switch echoes characters that it receives as input on the modem port to the current administration console session. The console appears to be directly connected to the external modem.
  • Page 37: Web Management
