broadcast domain |
Also found in: Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
|
The portion of a network that is reachable by a network broadcast, which is a request for an address resolution or an announcement of availability ("what is the address of that node?," "I am here," etc.). Unlike a collision domain, which concentrates at layer 2 (data link layer) and is typically within a LAN segment, a broadcast can be initiated at various protocol layers, thus the domain can be within a LAN segment or routed across LAN segments. See broadcast, broadcast traffic and collision domain. |

VPLS enables the connection of multiple sites over a simulated Ethernet broadcast domain across a provider provisioned IP/MPLS network. Through continuous network monitoring, OptiView Console can then identify improperly configured devices, or errors that may occur in any broadcast domain, alerting the user and providing the in-depth information required for rapid problem resolution. With Enhanced Stacking(TM) up to 24 interconnected AT-8000 Series switches on a broadcast domain can be managed by a single IP address. |
