Network Notes

No Hubs were used. All of the 4 networks were configured as 100Mbit/sec, full duplex.
The 4 networks were isolated by configuring the network switch to host 4 virtual LANs.
Three networks included one card in the server under test and two clients.
The fourth network included 1 card in the server under test and one client.
Clients 1 and 2 on 1st segment, clients 3 and 4 on the second, 5 and 6 on the third
and 7 on the fourth segment.
