[. . . ] VLANs can be based on untagged port groups, or traffic can be explicitly tagged to identify the VLAN group to which it belongs. Untagged VLANs can be used for small networks attached to a single switch. However, tagged VLANs should be used for larger networks, and all the VLANs assigned to the inter-switch links. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 Networks TigerSwitch10/100 6752A L 2 51/Down 52/Up 49 50 51 52 PWR Diag RPU 49 50 R&D VLAN 1 Tagged Ports Finance Untagged Ports VLAN unaware switch Marketing VLAN 2 Testing VLAN 3 VLAN 4 VLAN 3 Finance Tagged Port VLAN aware switch R&D Testing VLAN 1 VLAN 2 Figure 2-4 Making VLAN Connections Note: When connecting to a switch that does not support IEEE 802. 1Q VLAN tags, use untagged ports. 2-5 NETWORK PLANNING Application Notes 1. Full-duplex operation only applies to point-to-point access (such as when a switch is attached to a workstation, server or another switch). When the switch is connected to a hub, both devices must operate in half-duplex mode. Avoid using flow control on a port connected to a hub unless it is actually required to solve a problem. Otherwise back pressure jamming signals may degrade overall performance for the segment attached to the hub. As a general rule the length of fiber optic cable for a single switched link should not exceed: · · · 1000BASE-SX: 550 m (1805 ft) for multimode fiber. 1000BASE-ZX: 100 km (62. 1 miles) for singlemode fiber. However, power budget constraints must also be considered when calculating the maximum cable length for your specific environment. 2-6 CHAPTER 3 INSTALLING THE SWITCH Selecting a Site Switch units can be mounted in a standard 19-inch equipment rack or on a flat surface. · The site should: · be at the center of all the devices you want to link and near a power outlet. be able to maintain its temperature within 0 to 50 °C (32 to 122 °F) and its humidity within 10% to 95%, non-condensing provide adequate space (approximately two inches) on all sides for proper air flow be accessible for installing, cabling and maintaining the devices allow the status LEDs to be clearly visible Make sure twisted-pair cable is always routed away from power lines, fluorescent lighting fixtures and other sources of electrical interference, such as radios and transmitters. Make sure that the unit is connected to a separate grounded power outlet that provides 100 to 240 VAC, 50 to 60 Hz, is within 2. 44 m (8 feet) of each device and is powered from an independent circuit breaker. As with any equipment, using a filter or surge suppressor is recommended. · 3-1 INSTALLING THE SWITCH Ethernet Cabling To ensure proper operation when installing the switch into a network, make sure that the current cables are suitable for 10BASE-T, 100BASE-TX or 1000BASE-T operation. Check the following criteria against the current installation of your network: · Cable type: Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables with RJ-45 connectors; Category 3 or better for 10BASE-T, Category 5 or better for 100BASE-TX, and Category 5, 5e or 6 for 1000BASE-T. Protection from radio frequency interference emissions Electrical surge suppression Separation of electrical wires (switch related or other) and electromagnetic fields from data based network wiring Safe connections with no damaged cables, connectors or shields RJ-45 Connector · · · · Figure 3-1 RJ-45 Connections 3-2 EQUIPMENT CHECKLIST Equipment Checklist After unpacking this switch, check the contents to be sure you have received all the components. Then, before beginning the installation, be sure you have all other necessary installation equipment.

Mounting instructions for each type of site follow. Rack Mounting Before rack mounting the switch, pay particular attention to the following factors: · Temperature: Since the temperature within a rack assembly may be higher than the ambient room temperature, check that the rack-environment temperature is within the specified operating temperature range. (See page C-2. ) Mechanical Loading: Do not place any equipment on top of a rack-mounted unit. Circuit Overloading: Be sure that the supply circuit to the rack assembly is not overloaded. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the mains. · · · 3-4 MOUNTING To rack-mount devices: 1.

[. . . ] CSMA/CD CSMA/CD (Carrier Sense Multiple Access/Collision Detect) is the communication method employed by Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, and Gigabit Ethernet. End Station A workstation, server, or other device that does not forward traffic. Ethernet A network communication system developed and standardized by DEC, Intel, and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE 802. 3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and implementations that operate on fiber, thin coax and twisted-pair cable.
