3.5 Network for high data throughput and many nodes
Task
In a production facility, CAE data must be exchanged between many nodes on a large scale.
Apart from sufficient band width, comprehensive network management functions are
required.
Solution
As a backbone, a redundant ring consisting of four SCALANCE XR552-12M units is set up
(position
③ to ⑥). The 10 gigabit ports of these devices are used for a high-performance
connection between the switches. A PC (position
①) with the SINEC NMS network
management software is connected to one of the backbone computers. SINEC NMS offers
various analysis and visualization options as a basis for efficient and optimized operation of
the network. If required, the data traffic of a specific port can be analyzed by means of a
service programming device (position
②) with port mirroring.
Benefits
● Sufficient bandwidth through 10 gigabit technology
● Sufficient and efficient network management with SINEC NMS
● Investment protection through modular devices SCALANCE XR552-12M
