Connecting Additional
Computers To The DRS-200
When you want to DRS-200 be a bridge device. You can using additional Ethernet
(CAT5 UTP) cable, connect your Ethernet-equipped computers to the remaining Local
Network port on the back panel of the DRS-200 via Hub or Switch (like Hub/Switch2
of legend). The Local Network port LED will illuminate to indicate proper connection.
In bridging networks, computer or node addresses have no specific relationship to
location. For this reason, messages are sent out to every address on the network and
accepted only by the intended destination node. Bridges learn which addresses are on
which network and develop a learning table so that subsequent messages can be
forwarded to the right network.
Bridging networks are generally always interconnected local area networks since
broadcasting every message to all possible destinations would flood a larger network
with unnecessary traffic. For this reason, router networks such as the Internet use a
scheme that assigns addresses to nodes so that a message or packet can be
