Transparent Interconnect

The LAN·GOV transparently monitors all the packet traffic on each of its LAN segments to determine whether the packets it receives are to be forwarded. The Ethernet MAC layer source addresses that are active on each LAN are stored in a filtering database. Packets with a MAC destination that do not match a MAC address entry for the receiving port are forwarded.

Ease of installation
To be operational the LAN·GOV requires the configuration of the data rate. Configuration is performed through a Command Line Interface that is accessed through a console port or with Telnet.

Engage Communication's LAN Governor deployed by the State of Maryland

Aptos, CA, April 28, 2004
Engage Communication's LAN-GOV is being utilized by the State of Maryland to ensure that bandwidth is reserved for Engage's T1 Over IP interconnect solution, the IPTubeQT1.

The LAN·GOV is used to interconnect Ethernet LANs through a data rate governor. The data rate governor utilizes Time Division Multiplexing based clocking to provide for Nx64, NxT1 and NxE1 bandwidth regulation that is configurable from 64 kilobits up to DS3.

Governing the WAN bandwidth utilized by an Ethernet LAN enables the reservation of WAN bandwidth for time sensitive real time connections such as those required by Video Conferencing, Voice Over IP and T1/E1 Over IP applications.

"The LAN Govenor makes ensuring adequate bandwidth for real time information a very straight forward implementation for point to point applications." said President Mark Doyle. "The State of Maryland's selection of Engage's LAN Governor and T1 over IP solutions validates this winning combination."
