9F106-02 Module Specific Information
Module Specific Configuration Screen
The 9F106-02 FDDI Repeater Module physically attaches to the FNB-1 and the FNB-2
on the MMAC-Plus backplane. By default, the module inserts into four rings (the
primary and secondary rings of the FNB-1 and the FNB-2). The 9F106-02
Configuration Screen allows you to customize this configuration to your particular
needs.
The 9F106-02 Configuration Screen allows you to:
• establish whether the module’s FDDI-1 front panel connections will insert into the
backplane’s FNB-1 (primary and secondary) rings or bypass the FNB-1 rings,
• establish whether the module’s FDDI-2 front panel connections will insert into the
backplane’s FNB-2 (primary and secondary) rings or bypass the FNB-2 rings,
• establish whether or not specific front panel ports and their corresponding FNB
rings will connect only when an active link is detected on the front panel port(s).
The terms INSERT and BYPASS refer to relays that are located on the module.
INSERT causes a relay to connect the module’s specific front panel connections to the
selected ring. BYPASS causes a relay to disconnect the module’s specific front panel
connections from the selected ring.
