Introduction

PM4329-BGI is a multi-port gateway interface designed by Netcom Electronics, Inc. It is primarily used for Intel-based platforms. The PM4329-BGI enables the connecting of two or more networks and can be used to bridge two different topologies. The range of applications spans from simple networking to Internet access, from wide-area networking across different vendors, to applications involving mobile and distributed computing. The PM4329-BGI is an ideal solution for high-traffic environments where performance, flexibility, and low-cost operation are essential.

Features

The PM4329-BGI provides several features, including a universal port approach, user-selectable high/low compliance cycles, and Software-selectable Multi-Interface (MIF) ports. The universal port allows users to connect any network of any type (such as Ethernet, Token Ring, Fibre Channel, and ATM networks) to the PM4329-BGI using a single port. This simplifies network configuration and reduces the cost of ownership.The user-selectable high/low compliance cycles allow users to select either a 10-Mbps or 100-Mbps operation. This provides the flexibility needed to accommodate different networks and speeds. The Software-selectable Multi-Interface (MIF) ports allow users to configure multiple gateways to a single port and enables realistic multi-port speeds and throughputs depending on the specific environment.Some additional features include:

• Channel bonding for multiple network connections.
• Integrated security features.
• Integrated packet packet-filtering.
• Integrated traffic control.
• Control of application traffic and bandwidth.
• Scalable performance with increased performance as more gateways are installed.

Connectivity

The PM4329-BGI provides connectivity to multiple networks, including Ethernet, Token Ring, Fibre Channel, and ATM networks. The attached network connections can be operated in two modes – 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps. The PM4329-BGI also supports multiple connections to the same port, however these connections must be set up separately. The PM4329-BGI also allows for communications between multiple IP addressed networks.

Application fields

The PM4329-BGI provides reliable and efficient connectivity for various environments, including:

• Enterprises and organizations requiring reliable communications between multiple networks.
• Internet service providers or departments offering remote or dial-up access to their customers or employees.
• Mobile workers who need to access their corporate networks without having to be in the office.
• Small and medium businesses that need to have secure access to their networks.
• Large organizations with multiple branches across different locations.

Working principle

The PM4329-BGI operates on a packet-based communication protocol. Each packet is processed through the interface on a per-port basis. Each port may have different protocols, such as Ethernet, Token Ring, Fibre Channel, or ATM. The PM4329-BGI then routes each packet to its intended destination. The PM4329-BGI also performs packet filtering and traffic control. The PM4329-BGI also supports channel-bonding for bandwidth aggregation.The PM4329-BGI also supports authentication and encryption for secure communications. It also supports QoS (Quality of Service) guarantees. The user can configure each port to provide different levels of access or performance to each specified port. This way, each port can have its own policies and parameters without negatively affecting the performance of the whole system.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the PM4329-BGI is a multi-port gateway interface designed by Netcom Electronics, Inc. It enables the connecting of two or more networks, and can be used to bridge two or more different topologies. The range of applications spans from simple networking to Internet access, from wide-area networking across different vendors, to applications involving mobile and distributed computing. The PM4329-BGI offers several features, such as user-selectable high/low compliance cycles, universal port approach, and software-selectable Multi-Interface (MIF) ports. It also provides connectivity to multiple networks, such as Ethernet, Token Ring, Fibre Channel, and ATM networks. The PM4329-BGI is an ideal solution for high-traffic environments where performance, flexibility, and low-cost operation are essential.
