Bandwidth to Support Convergence
Convergence means combining or converging voice, data and video onto a single network. Enterprises usually need to expand their LAN bandwidth and set up a QoS or Quality of Service priority system to give priority to real-time streams such as telephone calls or video conference feeds, which are more sensitive to network delays than data transfers. Most often, the common protocol for convergence is IP.

Advantages of Managed IP Services
Managed IP is a WAN or Wide Area Network service that is provided and managed by a competitive carrier that owns and operates its own IP network. A managed IP provider ensures that you have the bandwidth and connectivity you need, without having to manage the WAN yourself.

What does flooding mean?
Flooding is a Ethernet process whereby switches that do not know the destination for data packets they receive send that data to all ports and wait for a reply to discover the actual address.

How does Spanning Tree Protocol work?
STP or Spanning Tree Protocol is a technique used by Ethernet switches to ensure that there is one and only one physical path from source to destination. This is done to prevent forwarding loops.

What is 2BASE-TL?
The 2BASE-TL designation refers to an Ethernet over Copper delivery technology offering 2 Mbps per copper pair over metropolitan area distances from the central office equipment. It is part of the Ethernet in the First Mile project, also known as IEEE 802.3ah. This technology leverages existing copper phone line for native Ethernet WAN services.
