Contemporary Controls has created a guide on how to enhance the performance
of your network through the managed series switch. There are 9 highlighted
features, each of which effect the speed of your network.
 |
The Complete Tutorial covers 9
features:
|
|
IGMP Snooping |
|
|
Rate Limiting |
|
|
Virtual Local Area Network (VLANs) |
|
|
Quality of Service (QoS) |
|
|
Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) |
|
|
Port Security |
|
|
Port Mirroring |
|
|

| IGMP
Snooping : See the Tutorial |
|
|
Improve Ethernet/IP traffic on your network |
|
|
Automatically Controls multicast traffic |
|
|
Minimizes unneeded multicast
traffic |
|
|
|
| Rate
Limiting: See the Tutorial |
|
|
Set a maximum bandwidth for each port |
|
|
Prevent unnecessary communication traffic
from overwhelming devices |
|
|
|
| Virtual
Local Area Network (VLAN): See the Tutorial |
|
|
Isolate traffic between groups of ports |
|
|
Control access to the various VLAN groups |
|
|
Allow devices that need to communicate
to each other the maximum bandwith |
|
|
|
| Quality
of Service (QoS): See the Tutorial |
|
|
Allow "high priority" messages
quick throughput |
|
|
Define message importance |
|
|
|
| Simple
Network Management Protocol (SNMP): See
the Tutorial |
|
|
Monitor switch port parameters |
|
|
Allows easy access to switch information
for HMI, SCADA and other applications |
|
|
|
| Port
Security : See the Tutorial |
|
|
Control access to end devices |
|
|
|
| Port
Mirroring : See the Tutorial |
|
|
Provides message troubleshooting access |
|
|
Allows messages to be monitored for message
content |
|
|
|
| RapidRing™
redundancy: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Allows switched networks to
be wired in a ring utilizing fiber or copper.
|
|
|
Any
break in the ring will be recovered in less than 300ms
(with up to 20 switches).
|
|
|
Relay
contacts, flashing LEDs and SNMP traps help to quickly identify
broken links.
|
|
|
Supports
dual ring structures.
|
See the tutorial
and white paper
for more information.
|
| Trunking
redundancy: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Any
break in the trunk will be recovered in less than 10ms. |
|
|
Relay
contacts, flashing LEDs and SNMP traps help to quickly identify
the broken links. |
|
|
Trunking
also provides more bandwidth between switches |
See the tutorial
and white paper
for more information.
