交换式集线器（switching hub） switching hub At present, the boundaries between hubs and switches have become blurred. The switched hub has a core switched backplane that uses a pure switching system instead of the traditional shared medium relay network segment. Such products are already on the market, and hybrid (trunking / switching) hubs are likely to dominate the market in the next few years. It should be noted that there is little difference between hub and switch characteristics. The working principle of switched hubs: 1. Exchange principle A switched hub is a network switch (switch), also called a switch, because it is connected with a telephone switch There are similar principles for the selection of incoming and outward lines, so some are translated into switches, but the number of access lines is relatively small, usually at 8-24 Between。 The network switch is defined as one can receive the information sent by Chen, to be temporarily stored, and then sent to the other end of the Network components. Switched hubs have the general characteristics of network switches. Switching hub consists of four basic elements: forwarding mechanism and backplane port, buffer, real information System structure. A switched hub can receive multiple port information at the same time, and can simultaneously send the information to multiple ports Port corresponding to the destination address. A switched hub can also send messages received from one port to multiple ports. from Each port has its own dedicated forwarding channel, thus avoiding the shared transmission channel in the shared hub Conflicts. However, conflicts still exist in the switched hub, if two receive ports are to the same output When forwarding, a conflict occurs. However, this conflict is relative to shared hubs, regardless of the likelihood of conflict Rates, or the scope of the conflict, are much smaller. Collisions between the switched hub ports can be via the hub interior Function to coordinate. Another form of conf
