MAC Address Table

Every Ethernet data packet includes both source and destination
addresses. This 6-byte ID is called the MAC (Media Access Control)
Address.

The Switch can automatically learn and store MAC addresses.
However, the MAC address table is volatile: it disappears when the
Switch is powered “Off” or reset.

Note: When the network needs reconfiguration, we recommend
to restart switch first. After all nodes have been moved, Remove
the power cord and re-attach it on the back panel
to rebuild the
internal MAC address table.

Sample Application

The optimal application for this Switch is to interconnect file servers
with other bandwidth-hungry workgroups, departments, and offices all
with dedicated bandwidths.
