PCIe versus Ethernet in a Composable System
I posted a link to a worth reading story last week about Liqid’s composable hyperconverged system. A reader (Vova Moki) commented on the LinkedIn post with this question—
Although I don’t understand how much faster is the PCIe than regular NICs?
Excellent question! It certainly seems that 100g Ethernet should be much faster than PCIe; this article lists the highest speed of PCIe as 15.8G/s across 16 lanes, with faster speeds expected into the future. Further, PCIe runs on parallel lanes, which means it must be very difficult to build a switch for the technology. The simplest way to build such a switch would be to pull the signals off the 16 different lanes, serialize them into a single packet of some sort, and then push them back out into 16 lanes again (potentially in different order/etc.).
So why should composable systems use something like PCIe, rather than using 100g Ethernet. After all, the Ethernet NIC is essentially doing precisely what a PCIe switch would need to do by pulling the data off a PCIe bus, serializing the data, and sending it over a network to a switch, which can, with the right design, already switch these packets Continue reading

Cisco Port Security Basics and configurations
Today I am going to talk about the Switching topic and that topic is Port Security. Port security is required in the case you want to control the traffic by allowing Specific MAC address entries, which means if the invalid MAC addresses traffic comes, it will be blocked or dropped.
Lets talk about the port security and the modes of port security. So the question is why port security required, may be want to safe from the attacks as well.
Why Port Security is important ?
Well port security is generally used so that you can easily prevent the unwanted MAC address traffic from the external or the internal network.
Port security can be enabled in three different ways are defined as below:

Why Port Security is important ?
Well port security is generally used so that you can easily prevent the unwanted MAC address traffic from the external or the internal network.
Port security can be enabled in three different ways are defined as below:
- Protect : In the protected state, switch port will drops packets with unknown source addresses until you remove a sufficient number of secure MAC addresses to drop below the maximum value.
- Restrict : In the restrict state, switch port will drops packets with unknown source addresses until you remove a sufficient number of secure MAC addresses to drop below the maximum value and causes the SecurityViolation counter to increment
- Shutdown : In the shutdown state, switch port will Continue reading
