ABSTRACT:
An internally-integrated type computer network switching unit is proposed, which is designed for internally integrated to a computer platform, such as a server, for providing the server with a network switching capability that allows the server to selectively switch between various connections to a number of network nodes for the purpose of establishing a LAN (Local Area Network); and which is characterized by that it is internally integrated to the internal circuitry of the server so that it can be implemented without having to utilize a dedicated set of microprocessor, memory, and operating system (OS), and can be directly controlled via the CPU and OS of the server. This feature allows the internally-integrated type computer network switching unit of the invention to represent a more cost-effective and highly expandable LAN solution for network applications.
