1.14 SWITCHING OPTIONS

The module provides 802.1Q switching between all of the front panel interfaces. In the 802.1Q mode (the default mode of operation), the module functions as an 802.1D switch until VLANs are configured.

IEEE 802.1Q switching allows migration to Virtual Network technologies without requiring the replacement of existing equipment.

1.15 STANDARDS COMPATIBILITY

The module is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x, 802.1D, and 802.1Q standards. The module provides IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability of the network and protect against “loop” conditions. The module supports a wide variety of industry standard MIBs including RFC 1213 (MIB II), RFC 1757 (RMON), RFC 1493 (Bridge MIB), RFC 1354 (FIB MIB), and RFC 1190 (Path MTU Discovery). A full suite of Enterasys Networks Enterprise MIBs provides a wide array of statistical information to enhance troubleshooting. For information on how to extract and compile individual MIBs, contact Enterasys Networks.

1.16 LANVIEW DIAGNOSTIC LEDs

LANVIEW diagnostic LEDs serve as an important troubleshooting aid by providing an easy way to observe the status of individual ports and overall network operations.
