incoming and outgoing packet are stored in a routing table. This information is subsequently used to filter packets
whose destination address is on the same segment as the source address. This confines network traffic to its
respective domain and reduce the overall load on the network.
The Switch performs "Store and forward" therefore, no error packets occur. More reliably, it reduces the
re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.
5.5 Auto-Negotiation
The STP ports on the Switch have built-in "Auto-negotiation". This technology automatically sets the best possible
bandwidth when a connection is established with another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is done
by detect the modes and speeds at the second of both device is connected and capable of, both 10Base-T and
100Base-TX devices can connect with the port in either Half- or Full-Duplex mode.
If attached device is:
100Base-TX port will set to:
10Mbps, no auto-negotiation
10Mbps.
10Mbps, with auto-negotiation
10/20Mbps (10Base-T/Full-Duplex)
100Mbps, no auto-negotiation
100Mbps
100Mbps, with auto-negotiation
100/200Mbps (100Base-TX/Full-Duplex)
