Chapter 1 — Quick Start

Bridge External Port AUI

This AUI port is the external port for the bridge (not the hub),
which is used to connect the bridge to a segment in your net-
work. The actual connection should be made using a MAU with
the appropriate network media connector.

Bridge External Port Link/Receive LED

This LED is on when another network segment is connected to
the external bridge port via the AUI connector; flashes when
packets are received on the port.

Bridge External Port Collision LED

Flashes when a collision is detected on the bridge external
port.

Bridge VT100 Local Management Port

Connect a VT100 terminal or a Macintosh or PC running VT100
emulation software to this port (9600 baud only). All bridge
local management functions are controlled from this port using
the VT100.

Do not use AsantéView Out-of-Band with this port!

3in1 Port Partition and Traffic LEDs

The top LED is on when any one of the 3in1 ports (AUI, BNC,
RJ45) has been partitioned. The LED blinks if the port is auto-
partitioned.

The bottom LED is on when the 3in1 port is connected and
flashes when there is traffic on the port.

Bridge/Hub RS232 Port

This is an RS232 serial data port used to connect AsantéView
Out-of-Band only. This port cannot be used for any local man-
agement function.

AMS Out-of-Band Link Ports

together for AsantéView out-of-band network management and
for connecting your AsantéView Management Station using the
AMS Link Extender cable.

band daisychain links.
