2-7-2. LAN Requirements
The MVS-8000 system requires an Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) for System Control LAN and
Data LAN.
Switcher Processor (MVS-8000), DME Processor (MKS-8800), and System Control Unit (MKS-8010)
are all connected via an Ethernet switch of appropriate specification.
Data LAN requires separate Ethernet switch from the one for Control LAN to avoid delay of the process-
ing.
m
. Ethernet Hubs are not acceptable for the MVS-8000 system Ethernet connection.
Use of hub instead of a switch may cause sluggish responses to panel button.
Connect each LAN (Control/Data) nodes to the different switch to avoid sluggish.
. Ethernet switches are not supplied with MVS-8000 system.
