3.5.2 DECswitch 900EE
The DECswitch 900EE product is a six-port, SNMP manageable Ethernet backbone
switch, providing switching capability between each of the six Ethernets. It supports
all the filtering capabilities (source MAC address, destination MAC address,
protocol type) as well as providing a large address table (8,000 entries). It is also
fully IEEE 802.1D bridge compliant. Figure 3–16 shows the DECswitch 900EE
network module.
The DECswitch 900EE module consists of six Ethernets on the front panel (two AUI
and four 10BaseT) and provides full-speed switching capability between each of the
six Ethernets.
Each port is configurable, via clearVISN software, to connect either to:
• The front panel connector.
• One of six internal DEChub 900 MultiSwitch backplane LAN segments.
