Abstract

A switch module for a computer network has a memory device for storing the relationship between the ports of the switch and the MAC address of the devices connected thereto. One port is designated a communications port and any packet destined for a device not listed in the memory device of the switch is sent to the communications port. A number of switch modules can be connected together with data flowing between modules via their communications ports. One of the modules will be provided with an output port for connection to the rest of the network.
