D-Link DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Introduction Ethernet Technology Switch Description Features Ports Front-Panel Components Ethernet 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 are proposed to provide greater bandwidth and improve client/server response times.
D-Link DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Gigabit Ethernet Technology Gigabit Ethernet is an extension of IEEE 802.3 Ethernet utilizing the same packet structure, format, and support for CSMA/CD protocol, full-duplex, flow control, and management objects, but with a tenfold increase in theoretical throughput over 100Mbps Fast Ethernet and a one hundred- fold increase over 10Mbps Ethernet.
D-Link DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D Unmanaged Gigabit Ethernet Switch Switching Technology Another key development pushing the limits of Ethernet technology is in the field of switching technology. A switch bridges Ethernet packets at the MAC address level of the Ethernet protocol transmitting among connected Ethernet or fast Ethernet LAN segments.
Today’s switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion problems. Switch Description The DGS-1016D/DGS-1024D Switch is equipped with 16 or 24 ports providing dedicated 10, 100, or 1000 Mbps bandwidth. These ports can be used for connecting PCs, printers, servers, routers, Switches, and other network devices.

– Multiple simultaneous broadcasts that typically absorb available network bandwidth and can cause network failure. console port – The port on the Switch accepting a terminal or modem connector. It changes the parallel arrangement of data within computers to the serial form used on data transmission links.

MIB – Management Information Base. Stores a device’s management characteristics and parameters. MIBs are used by the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to contain attributes of their managed systems. The Switch contains its own internal MIB. multicast – Single packets copied to a specific subset of network addresses. These addresses are specified in the destination-address field of the packet.

– The port in a resilient link that will take over data transmission if the main port in the link fails. switch – A device that filters, forwards, and floods packets based on the packet’s destination address. The Switch learns the addresses associated with each switch port and builds tables based on this information to be used for the switching decision.
