default LINK PROTECT settings. With the factory default LINK PROTECT settings, if one

side of the network traffic is interrupted for longer than 10 seconds, the tap will enter bypass mode

and the other side of the network will also drop "LINK" with the integrated tap. See the SET LINK

PROTECT section for additional information. The SS-1204BT-BT-S has a built in tap on ports

1 and 2 which make copies of the traffic flowing through the unit.

Where the aggregate bandwidth exceeds capacity, drops are inevitable and then the application

where 'Utilization greater than 50 percent ' should be considered as a solution..
