Store-and-Forward
Store-and-Forward is one type of packet-forwarding techniques. A Store-and-
Forward Ethernet Switching stores the incoming frame in an internal buffer, do the
complete error checking before transmission. Therefore, no error packets occurrence,
it is the best choice when a network needs efficiency and stability.
The Ethernet Switch scans the destination address from the packet-header, searches
the routing table pro-vided for the incoming port and forwards the packet, only if
required. The fast forwarding makes the switch attractive for connecting servers
directly to the network, thereby increasing throughput and availability. However, the
switch is most commonly used to segment existence hubs, which nearly always
improves overall performance An Ethernet Switching can be easily configured in any
Ethernet network environment to significantly boost bandwidth using conventional
cabling and adapters.
Due to the learning function of the Ethernet switching, the source address and
corresponding port number of each incoming and outgoing packet are stored in a
routing table. This information is subsequently used to filter packets whose
destination address is on the same segment as the source address. This confines
network traffic to its respective domain and reduce the overall load on the network.
The Switch performs "Store and forward" therefore, no error packets occur. More
reliably, it reduces the re-transmission rate. No packet loss will occur.

Auto-Negotiation
The STP ports on the Switch have built-in "Auto-negotiation". This technology
automatically sets the best possible bandwidth when a connection is established
with another network device (usually at Power On or Reset). This is done by detect the
modes and speeds at the second of both device is connected and capable of, both
10Base-T and 100Base-TX devices can connect with the port in either Half- or Full-
Duplex mode.

If attached device is:
100Base-TX port will set to:
10Mbps, no auto-negotiation
10Mbps.
