Chapter 2 — Connecting to the Network

This chapter provides detailed information about your
AsantéBridge and some pointers on different ways you can con-
nect it to your network.

The chapter opens with

About Bridging

, a short introduction to

transparent learning bridges and how these features are imple-
mented in the AsantéBridge 1012.

Using the 3in1 Port

your network using any of three possible methods: AUI, BNC, or
an RJ45 In/Out link.

Configuring a Redundant Link

second, parallel, 3in1 port connection that automatically becomes
active if you lose your primary connection link.

Setting Up Out-of-Band Links

AsantéBridge for out-of-band management using AsantéView 2.2.
