Enterasys fn100 Betriebsanweisung

The FN100 can be configured as a collection of virtual switches. Virtual 
switches provide increased bandwidth, enhanced security, and other 
advantages gained by having multiple switches operating in your 
network. Specifically, virtual switches can be used to increase bandwidth 
between the FN100 and non-Cabletron Systems devices that do not 
support trunking. You can define up to four virtual switch groups, and 
assign any of the FN100 ports to one of these virtual switch groups. 

The virtual switch capability breaks the address table into a separate table 
for each virtual switch that is defined. Each switch group is assigned a 
switch ID as follows: sw1, sw2, sw3, sw4. The default configuration is for 
all ports to be set to sw1.
