A network device that forwards traffic based on layer 3 information at very high speeds. Traditionally, routers, which inspect layer 3, were considerably slower than layer 2 switches. In order to ...
The layer-2 network components can be integrated into both Profinet and EtherNet/IP diagnostics. The switches have many ports and connections, a temperature range of –40°C to +70°C, and approval for ...
A network device that integrates routing and switching by forwarding traffic at layer 2 speed using layer 7 (application layer) information. For example, an XML switch can analyze the XML tags at ...
The paper describes how, with a SOPC (System on a Programmable Chip) architecture embedded with a 32-Bit NIOS-II, a Layer 2 Ethernet switch can be implemented in a FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) ...
the whole network fails if the switch fails as no node can communicate a wired star topology requires plenty of cable - in a large network this can be expensive Star topologies tend to be found in ...
