to users on a local area network. A switch increases capacity and decreases
network loading by making it possible for a local area network to be divided into
different segments which do not compete with each other for network transmission
capacity, giving a decreased load on each.
The switch acts as a high-speed selective bridge between the individual segments.
The switch automatically forwards traffic that needs to go from one segment to
another, without interfering with any other segments. This allows the total network
capacity to be multiplied, while still maintaining the same network cabling and
adapter cards.
Switching LAN technology is a marked improvement over the previous generation
of network bridges, which were characterized by higher latencies. Routers have
also been used to segment local area networks, but the cost of a router and the
setup and maintenance required make routers relatively impractical. Today’s
switches are an ideal solution to most kinds of local area network congestion
problems.
