C H A P T E R 1 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Straight-through vs. Crossover Cables Switch ports are wired for MDI-X. Use a straight-through cable to connect to a workstation or server (network adapter cards are wired MDI). To connect to another MDI-X port, use a crossover cable. Following are the pin arrangements for the switch’s Ethernet port and the typical RJ-45 connector.
2 Using the Intel® Express 460T Standalone Switch Overview This section provides an overview for using the Express 460T standalone switch within a network. The chapter covers the basic differences between a switch and hub, basic switching features like flow control and Spanning Tree, and a discussion of more advanced features such as link aggregation and the types of VLANs available on the switch.
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide What is a Switch? A switch segments traffic, providing each port its own collision domain. This is different from a hub where all ports belong to the same collision domain. Segments and Hubs Hubs combine multiple wires so all attached devices behave like they are on the same wire. Because the devices share the same segment, data sent by one device is retransmitted to all devices on the same hub.
C H A P T E R 2 Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Sample Configurations The following examples illustrate how the 460T switch can be used in a network.
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Flow Control When network traffic is heavy, the switch’s port buffers fill up faster than the switch can send the information. In cases like this, the switch tells the transmitting device to wait until the information in the buffer can be sent. This traffic control mechanism is called flow control. The method of flow control depends on whether the port is set to full-duplex or half-duplex.
C H A P T E R 2 Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Tagged Frames The 802.1D (1998 Edition) and 802.1Q specifications published by the IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) extended Ethernet functionality to add tag information to Ethernet frames and propagate these tagged frames between bridges (for example, a switch). The tag can carry priority information, VLAN information, or both and enables bridges to intelligently direct traffic across the network. The IEEE 802.
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Link Aggregation You can use link aggregation (sometimes known as port trunking) to combine from 2 to 8 (adjacent) ports so that they function as a single highspeed link. For example, link aggregation is useful when making connections between switches or to connect servers to the switch. You can also use link aggregation to increase the bandwidth to some devices. Link aggregation can also provide a redundant link for fault tolerance.
C H A P T E R 2 Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Virtual LANs (VLANs) A Virtual LAN is a logical network grouping you can use to isolate network traffic so members of the VLAN receive traffic only from other members. Creating a VLAN is the equivalent of physically moving a group of devices to a separate switch (creating a Layer 2 broadcast domain).
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide MAC-Based VLANs Membership in this type of VLAN is based on assigning the MAC address of a device to a VLAN. The advantage to this type of VLAN is that even if users relocate, they remain on the same VLAN as long as they stay connected to the same switch. The 460T switch supports up to 12 MACbased VLANs.
C H A P T E R 2 Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch IEEE 802.1Q (Tag-Based) VLANs The third type of VLAN supported by the 460T switch is based on the IEEE 802.1Q specification. The specification provides a uniform way to create VLANs within a network and enables you to create a VLAN that can also span across the network. Previously, VLAN implementation was vendorspecific so it was not possible to create a VLAN across devices from different vendors.
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide On the 460T switch, overlapping VLANs can be supported by using 802.1Qcapable devices. However, for non-802.1Q-capable devices, overlapping VLANs can be supported by implementing an asymmetric VLAN on the switch. An asymmetric VLAN is a type of 802.1Q configuration where endstations send traffic on one VLAN and receive traffic on another VLAN. The 460T switch supports asymmetric VLANs.
C H A P T E R 2 Using the Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) Because IEEE 802.1Q VLANs can span networks, managing changes to the VLAN poses a challenge for network administrators. The GARP VLAN Registration Protocol (GVRP) provides a dynamic mechanism for switches to share topology information and manage changes with other switches. The network administrator does not have to manually propagate VLAN configuration information across switches.
C H A P T E R 2 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Internet Group Multicast Protocol (IGMP) Generally, the switch broadcasts multicast traffic to all ports. For multicast traffic based on the TCP/IP using the IGMP protocol, the switch can optimize the broadcasting of multicast traffic by forwarding multicast traffic only to ports that require it. IGMP Snooping is a feature that allows the switch to forward multicast traffic intelligently.

C H A P T E R 4 Web Device Manager NOTE Link Aggregation When configuring link aggregation between two 460T switches, you must connect anchor port to anchor port, and member port to member port. Use link aggregation to group up to eight consecutive ports into a single dedicated connection. This feature can expand bandwidth between devices on the network, such as another switch or a server.
C H A P T E R 4 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Static MAC Addresses The MAC address table stores all the MAC addresses known by the switch. The switch uses this table for forwarding traffic to specific devices to avoid broadcasting traffic to every port for communication. There are two ways to add addresses to the MAC address table: • The switch can learn addresses and add them dynamically. Dynamic entries remain in the table only while the associated node is active.
C H A P T E R 4 Web Device Manager Configuring Community Strings and Trap Receivers A trap receiver is a computer on the network that is running an SNMP management application and receives messages sent by the switch. For example, the switch can send a trap to the trap receiver when it detects a change in port speed. NOTE The following traps are supported by the switch: • Power to the switch was cycled or reset.
C H A P T E R 4 Intel Express 460T Standalone Switch Users Guide Monitoring Switch Activity The Web Device Manager lets you view traffic, utilization, and error statistics for the switch and for individual ports.
