Chapter 1: About the CheetahSwitch Workgroup-3627
Overview
Accton’s CheetahSwitch Workgroup-3627 is an intelligent multilayer (Layer 2 and 3)
switch with 24 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX ports plus two slots on the rear panel for
slide-in 1000BASE-LX, 1000BASE-SX, 1000BASE-T or 100BASE-FX modules.
This switch can easily tame your network with full support for Spanning Tree
Protocol, Multicast Switching, Virtual LANs, and IP routing. It brings order to poorly
performing networks by segregating them into separate broadcast domains with
IEEE 802.3Q compliant VLANs, empowers multimedia applications with multicast
switching and QoS services, and eliminates conventional router bottlenecks.
It can be used to augment or completely replace slow legacy routers,
off-loading local
IP traffic to release valuable resources for non-IP routing or WAN access. With
wire-speed performance for both Layer 2 switching and Layer 3 routing, this switch
can significantly improve the throughput between IP segments or VLANs.
Figure 1-1. Front and Rear Panels
Switch Architecture
The CheetahSwitch employs a wire-speed, non-blocking switching fabric. This
permits simultaneous wire-speed transport of multiple packets at low latency on all
ports. This switch also features full-duplex capability on all ports, which effectively
doubles the bandwidth of each connection.
Switching Method
For communications between different VLANs, this switch uses IP routing with RIP,
RIPv2, or DVMRP protocol. For communications within the same VLAN, the switch
uses store-and-forward switching to ensure maximum data integrity. In
store-and-forward switching mode, the entire packet must be received into a buffer
and checked for validity before being forwarded. This prevents errors from being
propagated throughout the network.

Management Options
This switch contains a comprehensive array of LEDs for “at-a- glance” monitoring of
network and port status. It also includes a built-in network management agent that
allows the switch to be managed in-band using SNMP or RMON (Groups 1, 2, 3 and
9) protocols, with a Web browser, or remotely via Telnet. The switch provides an
RS-232 serial port (DB-9 connector) on the rear panel for out-of-band management.
A PC may be connected to this port
for configuration and monitoring out-of-band via a
full-handshaking
null-modem cable. (See Appendix B for wiring options.)
This switch provides a wide range of advanced performance- enhancing features.
Port-based and tagged VLANs, plus support for automatic GVRP VLAN registration
and GMRP multicast group registration provide traffic security and efficient use of
network bandwidth. QoS priority queueing ensures the minimum delay for moving
real-time multimedia data across the network. Flow control eliminates the loss of
packets due to bottlenecks caused by port saturation. Broadcast storm control
prevents broadcast traffic storms from engulfing the network. Layer 3 routing can be
used to connect segregated subnets and VLANs. Some of this switch’s advanced
features are described below. For a detailed description, refer to the Management
Guide.
Spanning Tree Protocol
The CheetahSwitch supports IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Protocol. This protocol
adds a level of fault tolerance by allowing two or more redundant connections to be
created between a pair of LAN segments. When there are multiple physical paths
between segments, the protocol will choose a single path and disable all others to
ensure that only one route exists between any two stations on the network. This
prevents the creation of network loops. However, if the chosen path should fail for
any reason, an alternate path will be activated to maintain the connection.
The default setting for the Spanning Tree Protocol is “enabled.” This protocol may be
configured out-of-band via the serial console port, or in-band via the Web interface,
Telnet, or SNMP network management software.
VLANs
The CheetahSwitch supports up to 256 VLANs. A Virtual LAN is a collection of
network nodes that share the same collision domain regardless of their physical
location or connection point in the network. By segmenting your network into
VLANs, you can:
Eliminate broadcast storms which severely degrade performance in a flat network.
Simplify network management for node changes/moves by remotely configuring
VLAN membership for any port, rather than having to manually change the node’s
IP address.
Provide data security by restricting all traffic to the originating VLAN, except where
a connection is explicitly defined via the switch’s routing service.
Overview
1-3
Multicast Switching
Specific multicast traffic can be assigned to its own VLAN to ensure that it does not
interfere with normal network traffic and to guarantee real-time delivery by setting
the required priority level for the designated VLAN. The switch uses IGMP Snooping
and GMRP at Layer 2, and IGMP at Layer 3 to manage multicast group registration.
Traffic Priority
This switch provides Quality of Service (QoS) by prioritizing each packet based on
the required level of service, using two distinct categories with Weighted Fair
Queuing. It uses IEEE 802.1p and 802.1Q tags to prioritize incoming traffic based on
input from the end-station application. These functions can be used to provide
independent priorities for delay-sensitive data and best-effort data.
Layer 3 Routing
The CheetahSwitch provides Layer 3 IP routing. To maintain a high rate of
throughput, the switch forwards all intra-segment traffic, and routes only traffic that
passes outside the segment. By providing wire-speed routing, you can easily link
your network segments or VLANs together without having to deal with the
bottlenecks or configuration hassles normally associated with conventional routers.
Most traffic can be routed based on information maintained within the switch’s own
database. If the address is not in the switching database, the switch will use RIP or
RIPv2 protocol to request the address. If the address still cannot be found, the
switch can pass the packet to a default router for handling.
The switch uses DVMRP protocol to determine the routing for multicast packets. If
no hosts have subscribed to the indicated multicast service, the packet will be
dropped.
About the CheetahSwitch Workgroup-3627

Description of Hardware
10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ports
These are dual-speed RJ-45 ports. Because all ports on this switch support
automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network
connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See “10BASE-T/
100BASE-TX Pin Assignments” on page B-2.)
Each of these ports support IEEE 802.3x auto-negotiation, so the optimum
transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data rate (10 or 100 Mbps) can be
selected automatically. If a device connected to one of these ports does not support
auto-negotiation, the communication mode of that port can be configured manually.
Each port also supports auto-negotiation of flow control, so the switch can
automatically prevent port buffers from becoming saturated.

The LEDs, which are located on the front panel for easy viewing, are shown below
