Specific Information

Introduction

This appendix contains local management information that is speciÞc to the
9F206-02 FDDI Repeater Module.

The 9F206-02 FDDI Repeater Module physically attaches to the FNB-1 and the
FNB-2 on the SmartSwitch 9000Õs FNB backplane. By default, the module inserts
into four rings (the primary and secondary rings of the FNB-1 and the FNB-2).
The 9F206-02 ConÞguration Screen allows you to customize this conÞguration to
your particular needs. The default values that appear on this screen are
determined by the moduleÕs DIP switches. (For more information on setting this
moduleÕs DIP switches, refer to the

MicroLAN Module UserÕs Guide

The 9F206-02 ConÞguration Screen allows you to:

¥ Establish whether the moduleÕs two FDDI-1 front panel connections will insert

into the backplaneÕs FNB-1 (primary and secondary) rings or bypass the FNB-1
rings (see Figure 1).

¥ Establish whether the moduleÕs two FDDI-2 front panel connections will insert

into the backplaneÕs FNB-2 (primary and secondary) rings or bypass the FNB-2
rings (see Figure 1).

The terms ÒInsertedÓ and ÒBypassedÓ refer to relays that are located on the
module. Inserted causes a relay to connect the moduleÕs speciÞc front panel
connections to the selected ring. Bypassed causes a relay to disconnect the
moduleÕs speciÞc front panel connections from the selected ring.
