Switch stacking technology allows you to combine several physical switches into one virtual switch, combining their switching matrices and simplifying port management from a single stack web interface. One of the most popular functions of the stack is to combine ports from different switches into common lagging groups to get a fault-tolerant network that can withstand the breakdown of N-(N-1) switches. I want to draw attention to the fact that modern Zyxel combines support the connection of up ...

Think of devices that monitor production equipment in a factory, or a video camera that sends real-time recording from a remote office. As long as there is only one device, it is quite easy to transmit them over the network, but with the growth of their number, there are already problems with delays. We recently wrote about how the oil and gas industry uses IoT to place hundreds and thousands of sensors on its facilities. With so much input data transmitted by all these multiple IoT devices, ...

Have you always wondered how Data center operators choose and configure their equipment? Why, for example, do they install server "A" instead of "B", what do they rely on - the speed of the VM or the potential number of them in the rack, and how do they design computing power? You have probably seen many times epic photos from data centers, in which drains clogged with servers go over the horizon, powerful generators and air conditioning systems are installed. Many people ...

This switch has no competitor with the same number of ports and support for 2.5 G Base-T and 5GBase-T. We tested this model for compatibility with existing network cards and cables, as well as measured performance. When purchasing a modern 10-Gigabit NAS, you will probably ask yourself the question: what should I connect it to? Regardless of whether your server has 10 GB network ports or you will add them with expansion cards, you need to decide whether you will use a copper cable (twisted ...

Today we are looking at one of the most advanced managed switches on the market. Not so long ago, Zyxel built support for the nebula cloud management system into its professional devices, which allows you to configure and maintain the network on the site simply, and most importantly - remotely. Today we are looking at one of the most advanced managed switches on the market.

One of the key challenges associated with the increased reliance on cloud resources is creating and maintaining ongoing security, including unified visibility and control to spot and mitigate threats and seamlessly remediate misconfigurations. Clouds, especially multicloud systems, continue to play an important role in business digital transformation efforts. This year, this is especially important in the context of the need to quickly transfer many employees to a remote work format. One ...
