Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your ES-2008 The ES-2008 is a multi-port switch that can be used to build high-performance switched workgroup networks. This switch uses a store-and-forward switching scheme, in which incoming data frames are first stored in buffer memory and checked for errors before being forwarded; thus offering minimum delay for high-speed networking.
Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch Supports port-based and tagged VLAN Groups Port Trunking and IEEE 802.3ad LACP MIB II (RFC1213) supported IP multicast IGMP snooping Quality of Service (QoS) Supports port mirror, broadcast filter, static MAC address, port security and GVRP Configure/Manage individual ports Enable/Disable individual ports 1.
Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch 1.4.1 Standalone Workgroup The switch can be used as a standalone switch to which computers, servers and printer servers are directly connected to form a small workgroup. Figure 1-1 Standalone Workgroup Example 1.4.2 Bridging Application For enterprise networks where large data broadcasts are constantly processed, this switch is an ideal solution for department users to connect to the corporate backbone.
Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch Figure 1-2 Bridging Application Example 1.4.3 VLAN Application VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) allows a physical network to be partitioned into multiple logical networks. Stations on a logical network belong to one group. A station can belong to more than one group. With VLAN, a station cannot directly talk to or hear from stations that are not in the same group(s); the traffic must first go through a router.

Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch Appendix B IP Subnetting IP Addressing Routers “route” based on the network number. The router that delivers the data packet to the correct destination host uses the host ID. IP Classes An IP address is made up of four octets (eight bits), written in dotted decimal notation, for example, 192.168.1.1. IP addresses are categorized into different classes. The class of an address depends on the value of its first octet. Class “A” addresses have a 0 in the left most bit.
Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch Similarly the first octet of a class “B” must begin with “10”, therefore the first octet of a class “B” address has a valid range of 128 to 191. The first octet of a class “C” address begins with “110”, and therefore has a range of 192 to 223.
Dimension ES-2008 Ethernet Switch For example, 192.1.1.0 /25 is equivalent to saying 192.1.1.0 with mask 255.255.255.128. The following table shows all possible subnet masks for a class “C” address using both notations.
