  • Different IP addresses for fiber optic switches

    Different IP addresses for fiber optic switches

    Each physical chassis has one common IP address that is shared by all of the logical switches in the chassis. Network topology refers to the way in which the links and nodes of a network are arranged in relation to each other. The IPs are provided to us as 69. In their router, they set it to Static IP, and put for the IP 69. 248 for /29. On Cisco Nexus 5000 Series switches, Fibre Channel capability is included in the Storage Protocol Services license. With AXIS D8308 Fiber Aggregation Switch you can connect multiple Axis devices using fiber midspans over long distances. It also enables easy expansion by simply adding more fiber or network. In place of the existing device that plugs into the ISP service (call it FW1) a router is used, for example a Mikrotik PowerBox Pro (R1), because it has an SFP port for fiber and five (you only need two) Ethernet ports.
