NOTE

If you enable the Hardware DIP Switch for Turbo Ring and set the Turbo Ring DIP Switch from

 

 

ON to OFF, then the Ring Ports and Coupler Ports that are added to all VLANs will be restored

 

 

to their previous software settings. (For details on how to do this, refer to “Configuring Basic

 

 

Settings—Turbo Ring DIP Switch.”)

 

 

 

 

 

Using this table, you can review the created VLAN groups and joined ports. (NOTE: The user interface for EDS-408A shows 8 ports.)

Using Rate Limiting

A single device should not be allowed to occupy unlimited bandwidth, especially when the device malfunctions. For example, broadcast storms could be caused by an incorrect topology or malfunctioning device. The EDS-408A/405A series not only prevents broadcast storms, but can also configure the ingress rate of unicast/multicast/broadcast packets, giving administrators full control of the limited bandwidth, and preventing unpredictable faults before they occur.
