Overview This switch is an ideal solution for delivering Internet access to individual users in multi-dwelling or multi-tenant units (MDUs/ MTUs), such as apartment housing blocks, commercial buildings or hotels. This switch provides rate-limitable connections to individual users with secure port-to-port isolation between users –...
BO U T T H E W IT C H Switch Architecture The switch contains 24 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports on the front panel. Each port can provide a dedicated link directly to an end-user PC, or be attached to another Ethernet switch/hub at the end-user’s premises and used as a shared link.

Foundry EdgeIron User Guide. VLANs This switch supports up to 255 VLANs. A Virtual LAN is a collection of network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical location or connection point in the network.
BO U T T H E W IT C H minimizes the total number of VLANs required. Private VLANs and normal VLANs can exist simultaneously in the same switch. Multicast Switching Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to...
Fast Ethernet, the maximum is two. This is known as the hop count. However, a switch turns the hop count back to zero. So subdividing the network into smaller and more manageable segments, and linking them to the larger network by means of a switch, removes this limitation.
Gigabit Ethernet. However, note that because switches break up the path for connected devices into separate collision domains, you should not include the switch or connected cabling in your calculations for cascade length involving other devices. 1000 Mbps Gigabit Ethernet Collision Domain...
When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. 2. When a switch is connected to a hub or any kind of shared media, you may want to turn off back pressure flow control to prevent jamming packets from being propagated throughout the hub.
NSTALLING THE Selecting a Site Switch units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. Be sure to follow the guidelines below when choosing a location. • The site should: • be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet.
Stacking Cable • CD-ROM containing installation guide and user guide Optional Rack-Mounting Equipment If you plan to rack-mount the switch, be sure to have the following equipment available: • Four mounting screws for each device you plan to install in a rack—these are not included...
Mounting A switch unit can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a desktop or shelf. Mounting instructions for each type of site follow. Rack Mounting Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors: •...
3. If installing a single switch only, go to “Connecting to a Power Source” at the end of this chapter. 4. If installing multiple switches, attach four adhesive feet to each one.
Connecting Network Devices The switch may be connected to 10 or 100 Mbps network cards in PCs and servers, as well as to Ethernet and Fast Ethernet hubs and switches. It may also be connected to remote devices using the optional fiber optic modules.
— known as a crossover cable. The RJ-45 ports on the switch base unit support automatic MDI/ MDI-X operation, which means that they automatically detect the wiring in the link and configure as MDI or MDI-X accordingly. So...
Figure 5-1. Making Twisted-Pair Connections 2. If the device is a PC card and the switch is in the wiring closet, attach the other end of the cable segment to a modular wall outlet that is connected to the wiring closet (see “Wiring Closet Connections”...
3. Connect one end of the cable to the SC port on the switch and the other end to the SC port on the other device. Since SC connectors are keyed, the cable can be attached in only one orientation.
• Be sure the cable is plugged into both the switch and corresponding device. • If the switch is installed in a rack, check the connections to the punch-down block and patch panel. • Verify that the proper cable type is used and its length does not exceed specified limits.
Then verify that you entered the correct IP address. Also, be sure the port through which you are connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled, then check the network cabling that runs between your remote location and the switch.
3. Reconnect some of the connectors in the link. Console Port Pin Assignments The DB-9 serial port on the switch’s front panel is used to connect to the switch for out-of-band console configuration. The on-board menu-driven configuration program can be accessed from a terminal or a PC running a terminal emulation program.
