Issue
What are the setup requirements for a L-switch on a classic network
Environment
Loytec L-Switch
Cause
What is the best way to setup a L-switch in a Vista classic network.
Resolution
The best option for a L-Switch on a classic network is in the Smart Switch Mode.
In this mode the L-Switch decides based on the destination address of the message, which port(s) the message will be forwarded to.
This functionality isolates network traffic.
The dip switch settings for this setup are shown here.
Here is a link to the Loytec manual for the wiring configurations.
