By selectively forwarding packets from each domain to the other domain based
on its switching (bridging) logic, the domain-switched Magnum DS8016-B increases the
available bandwidth for the users on both sides of the network. As shown in Figure 4.1, it
keeps the local traffic on each side contained, preventing unnecessary packets and bad
packets from traveling to the other domain and using up bandwidth needlessly there. This
results in more available network bandwidth on both sides and a throughput increase on for
all users on both domains.
4. Software Transparency
The Magnum DS8016-A Dual-Speed Hubs, the DS8016-E 100Mb-only Hubs and
the DS8016-B Dual-Speed Domain-Switched Hubs need no software set-up and are
transparent to system and application software, including network management software.
