FGSW-2620VM / FGSW-2624SF User’s Manual
Due to the learning function of the Ethernet switching, the source address and corresponding port number of each
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, reducing 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. 1000Base-T can be only
connected in Full-duplex mode.
