Gigabit Ethernet Applications
Gigabit Ethernet in the Branch Office
In
a branch office, the Cisco Gigabit Ethernet HWIC provides a high-speed
uplink. Figure 2 shows the HWIC being used to bridge non-routable
protocols, while providing Layer 3 connectivity. The HWIC is also useful
in situations that require IEEE 802.1q inter-VLAN routing and in any
LAN requiring fiber connectivity.
Figure 2. VLAN Trunking Application
Gigabit Ethernet in MANs
Figure
3 shows the Cisco Gigabit Ethernet HWIC used to connect Layer 3 VPNs
over a MAN. Cisco IOS Software enables QoS applications such as traffic
shaping and Network-Based Application Recognition (NBAR). As with VLAN
trunking, this is ideal for situations in which fiber connectivity is
desirable.
