ATM cells containing user data are traffic control, buffering received at the input ports, and the input port processors prepare the cells for routing through the switch fabric. 1. Introduction The fabric in the center of the switching system ATM (asynchronous transfer mode) is an provides the interconnections between input port internationally standardized connection-oriented packet processors and output port processors. The output port switching protocol designed to support a wide variety of processors prepare the outgoing user cells for data, voice, and video services in public and private transmission from the switch. User cell forwarding is broadband networks (1,2). ATM networks generally characterized by parallelism and high-speed hardware consist of ATM switches interconnected by high-speed processing. The ATM protocol was intentionally transmission links. ATM switches are high-speed packet streamlined to allow incoming cells to be processed switches specialized to process and forward ATM cells simultaneously in hardware and routed through the (packets). Since ATM is a connection-oriented protocol, switch fabric in parallel. Thus, ATM switches have been ATM switches must establish a virtual connection from able to realize high-end performance in terms of one of its input ports to an output port before forwarding throughput and cell forwarding delay. incoming ATM cells along that virtual connection. Connection control, sometimes called the control An ATM cell consists of a 5-byte header followed plane, refers to the functions related to the establishment by a 48-byte information field or payload. The main and termination of ATM virtual connections. purpose of the ATM cell header is to identify the virtual Connection control functions generally encompass: connection of the cell which occupies most of the exchange and processing of signaling information; header bits. An ATM virtual connection is specified by participation in routing protocols; and decisions on the combination of a 12-bit virtual path identifier admission or rejection of new connection requests. (except the first 4 bits are used for generic flow control Network management is currently carried out by at the user-network interface) and a 16-bit virtual SNMP (simple network management protocol), the channel identifier. Virtual paths are bundles of virtual standard protocol for managing data networks. ATM channels. VP crossconnects are designed to route ATM switches typically support an SNMP agent and an ATM traffic on the basis of virtual paths only, which is MIB (management information base). The SNMP agent convenient when large amounts of traffic must be routed responds to requests from a network manager to report or rerouted at the same time. The VPI/VCI fields are status and performance data maintained in the MIB.

Network management should also include standardized ATM-layer OAM (operations and 3. Switch Fabrics maintenance) functions. ATM switches carry out OAM It is often convenient to visualize the basic procedures by generating, exchanging, processing, and operation of an NxN switch synchronized to periodic terminating OAM cells. OAM cells are used for fault time intervals equal to the transmission time of one cell, management, performance management, and possibly referred to as a “cell time,” assuming that the other ATM-layer management functions. transmission rate on all links are equal. For example, the cell time for a 155-Mb/s transmission link would be 2. Input and Output Port Processing approximately 53 bytes/155 Mb/s = 2.7 ms.

The N incoming cells are processed in (synchronous optical network/synchronous digital parallel by the input port processors and presented hierarchy), the SONET/SDH framing overhead fields simultaneously to the switch fabric. The switch fabric are processed, and the payload is extracted from the attempts to route the cells in parallel to their appropriate frame. Individual 53-byte ATM cells are delineated in output ports. the payload. There is a chance that more than one cell may Next, each cell header undergoes a number of attempt to reach the same output port at the same time, processing steps.

  • Networking Packet Broadcast Storms
    Lesson Learned Networking Packet Broadcast Storms Primary Interest Groups Balancing Authorities (BAs) Generator Operators (GOPs) Reliability Coordinators (RCs) Transmission Operators (TOPs) Transmission Owners (TOs) that own and operate an Energy Management System (EMS) Problem Statement When a second network cable was connected from a voice over internet protocol (VOIP) phone to a network switch lacking proper settings, a packet broadcast storm prevented network communications from functioning, and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) was lost for several hours. Broadcast storm events have also arisen from substation local area network (LAN) issues. Details A conference room was set up for a training class that needed to accommodate multiple PCs. The bridge protocol data unit (BPDU) packet propagation prevention setting was disabled on a port in the conference room in order to place a network switch off of that port. Upon completion of the training, the network switch was removed; however, the BPDU packet propagation setting was inadvertently not restored. As part of a telephone upgrade project, the traditional phone in this conference room was recently replaced by a VOIP phone. Later, an additional network cable was connected to the output port of this VOIP phone into a secondary network jack within the conference room. When the second network cable was connected from a VOIP phone to a network switch lacking proper settings, a switching loop resulted. Spanning tree protocol is normally used to prevent switching loops from propagating broadcast packets continuously until the network capacity is overwhelmed. A broadcast packet storm from the switching loop prevented network communications from functioning and SCADA was lost for several hours.

  • Wireless LAN (WLAN) Switching
    TECHNICAL WHITEPAPER Wireless LAN (WLAN) Switching An examination of a long range wireless switching technology to enable large and secure Wi-Fi Deployments TECHNICAL WHITEPAPER Wireless LAN (WLAN) Switching This whitepaper provides a detailed explanation of a new wireless switching technology that will allow for large and secure deployments of WLANS. The explosion of wireless networking on the scene in the past few years has been unprecedented. Many compare the market acceptance of this technology to the advent of the early days of Ethernet. When Ethernet was adopted as a standard, it was quickly embraced by the users of PCs, and the acceptance of wireless LANs has followed a similar path. Comparatively, the adoption of the wireless standard, IEEE 802.11, (also known as Wi-Fi) and use of mobile computing platforms is the basis of the wireless revolution. While this is a very good comparative analysis, in the real sense the adoption rate of wireless LANs has been much higher. The worker of today has morphed into a mobile worker that has grown accustomed to information on the fly, and will demand information inside and outside of the workplace. These factors have converged and are providing the impetus for the hyper acceptance of wireless technologies where by IT professionals are faced with the choice of embracing the technology or having it implemented by their users. Wireless Adoption at Warp Speed The next logical evolution of the technology was to make it ubiquitous to the mobile wireless worker. Intel is helping this technology “cross the chasm” into the mainstream by spending $300 million to market their introduction of the Centrino™ mobile technology, which provides built-in Wi-Fi for the mobile computing platform.

  • Role of a Small Switch in a Network-Based Data Acquisition System
    Role of a Small Switch in a Network- Based Data Acquisition System Item Type text; Proceedings Authors Hildin, John Publisher International Foundation for Telemetering Journal International Telemetering Conference Proceedings Rights Copyright © held by the author; distribution rights International Foundation for Telemetering Download date 28/09/2021 12:00:38 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/10150/605943 ROLE OF A SMALL SWITCH IN A NETWORK-BASED DATA ACQUISITION SYSTEM John Hildin Director of Network Systems Teletronics Technology Corporation Newtown, PA USA ABSTRACT Network switches are an integral part of most network-based data acquisition systems. Switches fall into the category of network infrastructure. They support the interconnection of nodes and the movement of data in the overall network. Unlike endpoints such as data acquisition units, recorders, and display modules, switches do not collect, store or process data. They are a necessary expense required to build the network. The goal of this paper is to show how a small integrated network switch can be used to maximize the value proposition of a given switch port in the network. This can be accomplished by maximizing the bandwidth utilization of individual network segments and minimizing the necessary wiring needed to connect all the network components. KEY WORDS Data Acquisition, Network Switch, Network Infrastructure INTRODUCTION An Ethernet-based network data acquisition system is made up of network nodes (e.g., data acquisition units, recorders, etc.) interconnected by switches. While critical to the operation of the overall network, switches are a necessary expense added to the total cost of the system. One metric sometimes used to characterize the impact of the switch component is the cost-per-port.

China {just,chengyx,dujc,guoj,gaozx}@pku.edu.cn Abstract. To address the special requirements of China’s future public satellite mobile network (PSMN), three system architecture schemes are proposed in this paper basing on different satellite payload processing modeling. Finally, one of them, i.e., the so-called passive part on-board switching based architec- ture, is selected as a proposal for further design and development of China’s PSMN system, which essentially compatible to the 3GPP/UMTS R4 reference model. Keywords: MSS, GEO, UMTS, network architecture. 1 Introduction In order to extend and complement the current PLMN service coverage, to promote the emergency communications ability during disaster rescues, and to protect the rare space resource, that is, 115.5°E & 125.5°E S-band orbits, which China is holding with highest priority till now, the idea of establishing China’s own public satellite mobile network (PSMN) has been proposed repeatly since the 3rd quarter of 2008. Several earlier fundings have been launched respectively by those related national divisions, among which the Ministry of Science and Technology of China (MSTC), is the most progressive one to start the relevant research and development activities. So far, there are several mobile satellite systems which are already in sucessful commercial operation or right now under construction all over the world.
