Network Design Notes
When adding a Switch into your network, take into consideration the
information provided in this section.
Node Connections
There are some Ethernet switches that only support a single dedicated
station per port. This prevents network designers from interconnecting
shared-media hubs using this type of switches. The Switch supports
connections to various types of nodes including workstations, repeaters, and
switches, providing network designers a vast range of comprehensive and
scaleable switched networking solution.
