The TigerSwitch™ 1000 comes fully-loaded with advanced performance-enhancing

features. IGMP maintains available bandwidth by limiting multicast transmissions to	1	0	1	0	1	0
subscribers only. Broadcast Storm Suppression prevents broadcast traffic storms from	1	0	1	0	1	0
engulfing the network. QoS priority queueing ensures the minimum delay for real-
time multimedia data across the network. Flow Control eliminates the loss of packets	1	0	1	0	1	1
due to bottlenecks caused by port saturation. Port-based and tagged VLANs are also	0	1	0	1	0
included to provide traffic security and efficient use of network bandwidth.
