2.2.1 Fileserver Link
The LSW switch can be used to greatly increase the bandwidth between one or more fileservers and the workgroups they serve. Individual 10Mbps workgroup switches can be connected to the ports on the LSW switch, ensuring that traffic in one workgroup will not interfere with the performance of another workgroup.
