Statistical Display for System Performance

8WLOL]DWLRQ￿'LVSOD\￿0RGH - (8WLOL]DWLRQ￿) The statistical indicators show the percentage of valid data passing through each port compared to overall network bandwidth (updated every 0.5 seconds). There are 5 LEDs representing the percentage of network utilization. The corresponding LEDs light up to show that the utilization of LAN bandwidth has reached this percentage. When active, these LEDs behave like a stereo’s equalizer display.

For example, if network utilization reaches 1%, the LED labeled 1% will light up. However, if network utilization rises above 1% (e.g., 30%), the LED labeled 30 and all the other LEDs before it (i.e., 1, 5 and 15) will also light up in rapid succession. These indicators monitor the share of valid network frames handled by each port within a 100 Mbps bandwidth. They provide a quick way to monitor the current traffic load relative to the network’s capacity.

&ROOLVLRQ￿'LVSOD\￿0RGH (&ROOLVLRQ￿)- The statistical indicators show the percentage of packet collisions occurring out of the total packets transmitted by the port. Collisions occur when two or more devices connected to a hub attempt to transmit data simultaneously on the network. When a collision occurs, devices pause and then re-transmit after a pseudo-random wait period. Because wait periods differ among devices, successive collisions become increasingly improbable.

The Collision LEDs assist the network manager in monitoring the percentage of packet collisions occurring relative to the total packets transmitted by each port. The collision indicators are labeled by row to indicate the percentage of collisions encountered by the corresponding port. When collisions reach a level marked on the front panel display, the corresponding LED lights up. For example, if packet collisions reach 1%, the LED labeled 1% will light up. However, if collisions go beyond 1% (e.g., 15%), the LED labeled 15+% and all the other LEDs before it (i.e., 1, 3, 5 and 10) also light up in rapid succession.

Accton Technology, a prominent player in the networking industry, has developed a range of high-performance switches designed to meet the demands of modern network infrastructures. Among their notable products are the EH3012C and EH3008C switches, equipped with advanced features that cater to various networking needs.

The EH3012C is a 12-port managed switch that offers a robust solution for enterprise networks. One of its standout features is its support for Layer 2/Layer 3 switching, providing flexibility for users to implement different networking protocols as needed. This switch is designed with scalability in mind, featuring high bandwidth capacities and low latency, making it suitable for high-traffic environments. Its advanced Quality of Service (QoS) capabilities allow for efficient traffic management, ensuring that critical applications receive the necessary bandwidth for optimal performance.

On the other hand, the EH3008C is an 8-port managed switch that serves as an ideal solution for small to medium-sized networks. With support for PoE (Power over Ethernet), the EH3008C significantly simplifies deployment by allowing devices such as IP cameras and access points to receive power directly through the Ethernet cable. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies and reduces clutter.

Both switches utilize advanced security features, including VLANs, port security, and Access Control Lists (ACLs), ensuring that sensitive data is protected against unauthorized access. Additionally, they support SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) for comprehensive monitoring and management, allowing administrators to maintain control over their network environments efficiently.

Integrating advanced technologies like SDN (Software-Defined Networking), Accton’s switches enable businesses to future-proof their network architecture. The EH3012C and EH3008C can easily adapt to evolving network demands, providing just the right mix of performance, security, and management capabilities. Furthermore, their energy-efficient designs contribute to reduced operational costs, making them a sustainable choice for organizations looking to minimize their environmental impact.

In summary, Accton Technology's EH3012C and EH3008C switches deliver powerful, feature-rich solutions tailored to both large and smaller networks. With their versatile management options, enhanced security features, and support for emerging technologies, these switches stand out as indispensable tools for building resilient and efficient networking infrastructures.
