Switch Port Extender Is Topic of Chapter Meeting

In September, Michael Selheim of Brocade gave a presentation to the chapter regarding IEEE 802.1br. He discussed the complexity of managing large networks. This complexity could be reduced by aggregating more complex bridging functions onto fewer bridges and by collapsing bridge layers from a management perspective. This would result in reduced maintenance costs when correcting network issues as well as expedite settings updates throughout a network.
