3. Q Does the VxComm Driver PC support auto reconnection after fixing a network break A Yes the VxComm Driver PC supports the auto reconnection mechanism after version 2 00 The VxComm Utility allows users to set the server options that include Keep Alive Time ms and Connection Broken time ms Please refer to the section Adding a 7188E 8000E server and configuring the VxComm driver 8000E Series Software User s Manual 2002 v1 0 8MS 001 10 53 4 Ethernet I O Applications 4 1 Operation Principle of the Xserver The typical TCP IP mechanism is a standard tool but very complicated for a software engineer It takes long time for a software engineer to develop a programs using TCP IP protocol The command protocol designed for a TCP IP system can be based on user s applications without any limitations So every software engineer can design his special protocol without any pre defined standard This will cause some of the troubles given as follows Is this protocol reliable Does this protocol fit all requirements How to maintain this protocol by another software engineer Time to market Engineering cost to design amp debug this protocol The Xserver is designed to solve all problems mentioned above as follows We design amp maintain the reliable original Xserver for all users The protocol is designed to fit all requirements of the 7188E series The protocol is OPEN amp expandable to reduc
4. The term Ethernet generally refers to a standard published in 1982 by Digital Eugipment Corp Intel Corp and Xerox Corp Ethernet is the most popular physical layer local area network technology today Ethernet is a best effort delivery system that uses CSMA CD technology It recognizes hosts using 48 bit MAC address Internet Physically a collection of packet switching networks interconnected by gateways along with TCP IP protocol that allows them to perform logically as a single large and virtual network Internet recognizes hosts using 32 bit IP address TCP IP Transmission Control Protocol TCP and Internet Protocol IP are the standard network protocols They are almost always implemented and used together and called TCP IP TCP IP can be used to communicate across any set of interconnected network TCP Transmssion Control Protocol TCP provides a reliable flow of data between two hosts It is connected with things such as dividing the data passed to it from applications into appropriately sized chunks for the network layer below acknowledging received packets setting timeouts to make certain that the other end acknowledges packets that are sent and so on UDP User Datagram Protocol UDP provides a much simpler service to the application layer It just sends packets of data from one host to the other But there is no guarantee that the packets reach the destination host Gateway Computers that in
