Allied Telesis AT-FS238a/2 - Manual (Page 24)

Overview
12
The bridging converter will discard CRC errors, misaligned, runt, and under-
oversized packets. When the packet has dribble bits at the end, the bridging
converter will truncate to octet boundary and check for a good FCS before
forwarding.
Network Topologies
Figure 6 illustrates a back-to-back topology using one AT-FS238a/x and one
AT-FS238b/x Series Bridging Converters to interconnect two small networks
of stackable hubs.
❑
Network 1 has an AT-FS709FC connected to the 100Base-TX port on
the AT-FS238a/x Series Bridging Converter.
❑
Network 2 has an AT-8024 switch connected to the 10Base-T/100Base-
TX port on the AT-FS238b/x Series Bridging Converter.
