Solution Overview
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 configured from 64 kilobits up to DS3.

 LAN Govenor DL

 
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.

Rate Governing is applied in one direction to minimize latency. The traffic from the non real time LAN is
data rate limited. The traffic from the WAN is bridged to the non real time LAN without passing through
the data rate limiter.

The LAN·GOV isolates the real time critical application data from traffic overloading which can cause
process saturation. The traffic that is forwarded is limited to only the traffic that is destined for the
remote location by a standards based spanning tree bridging protocol.
 Wireless Ethernet
Wireless Ethernet bridges typically do not implement a method to ensure that the real time connections
have priority. The LAN·GOV provides a straight forward method to ensure real time data delivery across
wireless links.
 Wide Area Networks
Enterprises, Education, Government Agencies and Organizations are able to deploy LAN·GOVs to restrict network segments utilization of Wide Area Network Bandwidth.
 Service Providers
Unrestricted Ethernet connections provided by networking service providers enable subscribers to overburden the Service Providers network. The LAN·GOV enables service providers to limit a subscriber to a committed information rate.
 Governing Data Rate Versus Quality of Service
Quality of Service
Quality of service in complex networks is cumbersome. QOS needs to be performed at each transitions from high to lower bandwidth in the packet path. Access to routers or switches in the link that are maintained by different organizations can be restricted.
Data Rate Governing
Governing general traffic bandwidth is straight
forward and easy to implement. Data rate configuration is setup at each end of the link to guarantee the real time data rate requirements.
 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.
