3. Ethernet connections are combined into a team in order to increase the bandwidth capability and to create resilient and redundant links A set of multiple parallel physical links between two devices is grouped together to form a single logical link Link aggregation offers an effi cient and low cost solution to increase bandwidth between server and switch Another advan tage it provides is that if a connection fails completely the remaining links can take over the traffic and thus replace the broken line Link aggregation also provides load balancing where the processing and communications ac tivity is distributed across several links so that no single link is overwhelmed By taking multiple LAN connections and treating them as a unified aggregated link practical benefits can be achieved in many applications Link aggregation provides the following important benefits e Higher link availability e Increased link capacity e Improvements are obtained using existing hardware no upgrading to higher capacity link technology is necessary Demanding applications running in high performance environments like servers in enterpris es web servers and intranet servers gain particularly from the high bandwidth and duplex capabilities of link aggregation All SysKonnect Gigabit Ethernet Adapters support link aggregation according to the IEEE standard 802 3ad At the moment SysKonnect provides a link aggregation driver for Windows 2000 Windows XP
4. If a team has several aggregators which are connected to separate switches the failover feature is utilized Data is transferred via one aggregator and is if this aggregator fails automatically switched over to another aggregator in the same team For more information on RSF refer to the white paper Link Aggregation according to IEEE 802 3ad which can be found on the SysKonnect installation CD ROM and on our web site PCI Express Hot Plug As a member of the PCI Special Interest Group SysKonnect has a long experience in the standardization of the insertion and removal of PCI computer cards during normal operation The SysKonnect SK 9E21D 10 100 1000Base T Adapter PCI Express provide native Hot Plug Support according to the PCI Express 1 0a and Advanced Configuration and Power In terface Specification Revision V2 0 Hot Plug enables the replacement of failed devices in a running system The following condi tions have to be met in order for Hot Plug to work on the SysKonnect SK 9E21D Adapter e The target system has PCI Express Hot Plug slots i e the power can be switched on and off under the control of the operating system e The adapter is installed in one of the PCI Express Hot Plug slots e The operating system supports PCI Express Hot Plug on the target system The drivers for the following operating systems support PCI Express Hot Plug e Windows 2000 Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 e NetWare 4 20 and higher e S
5. PCI Ex press can support up to 64 IP address assignments in a single network connection Thus multiple VLANs can be configured for one port Stations can be accessed from systems in multiple IP sub nets without traversing routers Additionally multiple application VLANS can be defined to isolate traffic for performance and security purposes For this reason the server can be physically connected to a single switch port but still belong to several VLANs The Gi gabit Ethernet adapter can receive tagged packets and is able to tag outgoing packets The switch the adapter is connected to must support VLAN tagging according to IEEE 802 1g For several operating systems SysKonnect offers drivers that support VLAN tagging and thus can be applied for VLAN servers and terminal units For more information on Virtual LANs refer to the White Paper Virtual Networks which can be found on the installation CD ROM under White Papers or on our web site under Tech nology Also see the corresponding readme files for the respective drivers Virtual Cable Tester VCT The VCT technology utilizes Time Domain Reflectometry TDR technology to remotely diag nose the quality and characteristics of the attached cables Using this technology it is possible to detect and report potential cabling issues such as cable opens cable shorts or any imped ance mismatches in the cable and accurately report within one meter the distance to the fault
6.
