INTRODUCTION
This chapter describes the features of the Switch and some
background information about Ethernet/Fast Ethernet switching
technology.
Fast Ethernet Technology
The growing importance of LANs and the increasing complexity of
desktop computing applications are fueling the need for high
performance networks. A number of high-speed LAN technologies
have been proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve
client/server response times. Among them, 100BASE-TX (Fast
Ethernet) provides a non-disruptive, smooth evolution from the
current 10BASE-T technology. The non-disruptive and smooth
evolution nature, and the dominating potential market base, virtually
guarantee cost effective and high performance Fast Ethernet solutions
in the years to come.
100Mbps Fast Ethernet is a new standard specified by the IEEE 802.3
LAN committee. It is an extension of the 10Mbps Ethernet standard
with the ability to transmit and receive data at 100Mbps, while
maintaining the CSMA/CD Ethernet protocol. Since the Switch is
compatible with all 10Mbps Ethernet environments, it provides a
straightforward upgrade and takes advantage of the existing
investment in hardware, software, and personnel training.

Switching Technology
Another approach to pushing beyond the limits of Ethernet technology
is the development of switching technology. A switch bridges and
transmits Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet
protocol, among connected Ethernet or Fast Ethernet LAN segments.
Switching is a cost-effective way of increasing the total network
capacity available to users on a local area network. A switch
increases capacity and decreases network loading by dividing a local
area network into different segments. Each segment has its own
bandwidth and it does not compete with others for network
transmission capacity.
Aswitch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual
segments. The switch forwards traffic from origin segment to
destination segment, without interfering with any other segments. By
doing this, the total network capacity is multiplied, while still
maintaining the same network cabling and adapter cards.
For Fast Ethernet networks, a switch is an effective way of eliminating
problems of uplinking Fast Ethernet hubs beyond the “two-repeater
limit”. A switch can be used to split parts of the network into different
collision domains, making it possible to expand your Fast Ethernet
network beyond the 205-meter network diameter limit. The switch
supports both traditional 10Mbps Ethernet and 100Mbps Fast
Ethernet, which is also ideal for bridging between the existing
10Mbps networks and the new 100Mbps networks.
LAN Switching technology is a marked improvement over the
previous generation of network bridges, which were criticized by their
higher latencies. Routers have also been used to segment local area
networks. But, the router expensive, difficult to setup, and
