NIC already has a MAC address assigned to it by its manufacturer. The AT-FS708 Fast Ethernet switch can contain up to 1,024 entries in its MAC address table. The switch uses the table to store the MAC addresses of the network end-nodes connected to the ports, along with the port number on which each address was learned. -
Page 17: Duplex Mode
The twisted pair ports on the AT-FS708 switch can operate in half- or full- duplex mode for 10/100 Mbps. They are IEEE 802.3u-compliant and use Auto-Negotiation to set the duplex mode setting for you automatically. - Page 18 Chapter 1: Product Description A port operating in full-duplex mode uses PAUSE frames, as specified in the IEEE 802.3x standard, to stop the transmission of data from an end- node. Whenever the switch wants an end-node to stop transmitting data, it issues this frame.
