Overview:
The Abington Senior High School networking course found some unique networking challenges within their Cisco network that could be solved with a new switch and a grid computing configuration. For the purposes here, "Grid computing," describes a cluster of computers connected via Ethernet, which share resources to perform large tasks. The hardware the class was connecting into the Ethernet cluster was approximately five to eight years old, with a maximum of 512MB RAM on each machine and 400MHz per processor. The class opted for a D-Link DES-3526 Managed 24-Port switch. It was easy to install, fit perfectly into their rack, and integrated well with their existing Cisco and 3Com equipment.
