VaihtaaedLANcanprovideuserswithsomefunctionsthatcannotberealizedbysharedLAN,mainlyincludingthefollowingaspects:

(1)IsolateconflictsThedomainisinasharedEthernet,usingtheCSMA/CDalgorithmformediaaccesscontrol.Iftwoormorestationssimultaneouslydetectthatthechannelisidleandthereareframesreadytobesent,theywillcollide.Agroupofsitesthatcompeteforchannelaccessiscalledacollisiondomain.Obviously,stationsinthesamecollisiondomaincompeteforchannels,whichwillleadtocollisionsandback-offs.However,stationsindifferentconflictdomainswillnotcompeteforthecommonchannel,andtheywillnotconflict.InaswitchedLAN,eachswitchportcorrespondstoacollisiondomain,andtheportistheendofthecollisiondomain.Becausetheswitchhasaswitchingfunction,therewillbenoconflictbetweensiteswithdifferentports.Ifonlyonecomputersiteisconnectedtoeachport,therewillbenoconflictsbetweenanypairofsites.IfaportisconnectedtoasharedLAN,thentherewillbeconflictsbetweenallsitesontheport,buttherewillbenoconflictsbetweenthesitesonthisportandthesitesonotherportsoftheswitch.Therefore,theswitchisolatestheconflictdomainofeachport.

(2)ExtendthedistanceTheswitchcanextendthedistanceoftheLAN.EachswitchportcanbeconnectedtoadifferentLAN.Therefore,eachportcanreachthemaximumdistancerequiredbydifferentLANtechnologies,regardlessofthelengthoftheLANconnectedtootherswitchports.

(3)IncreasethetotalcapacityInasharedLAN,thecapacityissharedbyallaccessdevices.InaswitchedLAN,sinceeachportoftheswitchhasadedicatedcapacity,thetotalcapacityoftheswitchedLANincreaseswiththenumberofportsoftheswitch.Therefore,thedatatransmissioncapacityprovidedbytheswitchismuchlargerthanthatofthesharedLAN.

TheexchangemethodoftheswitchGenerally,theswitchmainlyrealizestheexchangethroughthefollowing4ways.

TheroleofroutinginaswitchedLAN:BeforeunderstandingtherespectiverolesofswitchingandroutinginaLAN,youshouldfirstunderstandthedifferencebetweenthesetwotechnologies.LANswitchesareabitlikebridges.UsuallytheyinterconnectthesametypesofLANsegments,suchasallEthernetsegmentsortokenringsegments.Theytransmitinformationtransparentlybetweenports.Takethetokenringnetworkasanexample,usingsourcerouting.Transparentswitchesareinvisibletoendstations.TheylearnbycheckingalltheinformationpacketstransmittedtotheirportsintheLANsegment,therebyknowingthelocationofeachstation,andaccordingtothedestinationnetworkaddressineachinformationpacket.Thepacketissenttotheappropriateport.Thisalsomeansthattheiroperationisindependentofthecommunicationprotocolwiththeendstation,whetheritistheTCP/IPprotocol,orNovellIPX,NETBIOSorIBM'sSNAprotocol.Thesourceroutingswitchofthetokenringnetworkisdifferentfromthetransparentswitchonlyinthatthesourceroutingswitchsendstheinformationpackettothecorrespondingportbasedontheinformationinsertedintoeachinformationpacketbytheendstation,whichisalsoindependentBasedontheunderlyingnetworkprotocol.

Butinsomecases,switchescanbeusedtointerconnectdifferenttypesoflocalareanetworks.Forexample,someswitchescaninterconnectFDDIbackbonenetworksandEthernetsegments.Inthiscase,theswitchjustdoessomesimpleconversionworkbetweentheEthernetandFDDIframes,thusfollowingthetransparencyprincipleoftheoppositestation.Ontheotherhand,routersaredesignedtohavetheabilitytotransmitanytypeofnetworkinformationpackettoanyothertypeofnetwork,andtheyareopaquetotheendstation:infact,whenanEthernetendstationwantsthestationattheotherendoftherouterWhencommunicating,itonlyaddressesthecorrespondingrouter,notthedestinationsite.WhenarouterreceivesapacketfromanEthernetsegmenttoanothernetworksegment,theroutertakesouttheheaderofthepacket,checksthedestinationaddressintheheader,andthenqueriesthecorrespondingtablebasedontheinformationtodeterminethedestinationWhetherthesiteislocatedinadirectlyconnectedLANsegment,otherwise,theinformationpacketshouldbesenttoanotherrouter.Aftermakingthecorrespondingdecision,therouterwilladdanewheadertotheinformationpacketandsenditout.

Inordertodeterminewhichporttheinformationpacketisforwardedto,routersneedtomaintaincomplexlookuptables.Thesetablesareconstructedbyeachroutercooperatingwithotherroutersinthenetwork.TheserouterspassthroughthisTheroutingstatusinformationofthenetwork,theprotocolsandprocessesinvolvedinroutingselectionarecomplicated,requirealotofcalculations,andtakeupmemory.Allinall,themostsignificantdifferencebetweenswitchingandroutinginalocalareanetworkisthatitrequiresmuchmorecomplicatedprocessingforinformationpacketstopassthrougharouterthantopassthroughaswitch.Therefore,underthepremiseofachievingthesamelevelofperformance,thecostoftherouterismuchmorethanthatoftheswitch,andittakeslesstimeforapackettopassthroughtheswitchthantopassthroughtherouter,sotheswitchprovidesashorterdelay;butontheotherhand,Theprocessingpoweroftheroutercanbeusedtoprovideagreaterdegreeofcontrolthantheswitch.

(2)Theamountofbroadcasttrafficinalocalareanetworkisnotonlydeterminedbythenumberofsitesconnectedtothelocalareanetwork,butalsoaffectedbymanyotherfactors,suchasthenumberofserversandroutersonthelocalareanetwork.Thenumber,thetypeofprotocolused,thefrequencywithwhichtheuseractivatesandterminatesthenetworkapplication,etc.Atthesametime,theobservablebroadcastcharacteristicsinthetokenringnetworkaredifferentfromthatoftheEthernet,becausethetokenringnetworkusesasourceroutedetectionframe(SourceRouteEXPloreFrames),whichwillfacemultiplerouteswhenpassingthroughabridgednetwork.Thechoicewillcopyitself.BecausetherearemanyfactorsthataffectLANbroadcasttraffic,itisdifficulttogiveageneralmeasurementindex.However,theactualnetworkmeasurementshowsthatevenacommonbridgeorswitchisusedtoconnectalocalareanetworkwithhundredsoreventhousandsofnodes.

Theaveragebroadcastcommunicationvolumegenerallydoesnotexceed10-30informationpacketspersecond,andthereareonly100-150informationpacketspersecondintheoccasionalpeakperiod.And30broadcastpacketspersecondmeansthattheyoccupyabouttwoandahalfthousandthsoftheEthernetchannel,(hereweassumethattheaveragelengthofbroadcastpacketsis100bytes).Therefore,theimpactofthebroadcaststreamontheperformanceoftheentirenetworkisnegligible.AlthoughthebroadcaststreamontheLANhaslittleeffectonnetworkperformance,thesamesituationdoesnotapplytoWANconnections.Inthiscase,thebroadcastcommunicationstreamwilloccupyaconsiderablepartofthevaluableWANbandwidth,andtherouterplaysaroleinminimizingtheimpactofbroadcastcommunicationinthisenvironment.Thecurrenttrendinthetypesandusageofnetworkprotocolsandsoftwareis:tendtoreducethebroadcastcommunicationtrafficinthelocalareanetwork.
