The LCM commands used to create the previous configuration are as
follows:

1. To create workgroup A on ports 3, 4, 5, 13, and 16:

FN10 > workgroup A 3-5,13,16

LCM responds with the following display:

Name: a

Ports: 3, 4, 5, 13, 16

Info: all

2. To create workgroup B on ports 7, 11, 16, and 24:

FN10 > workgroup B 7,11,16,24

LCM responds with the following display:

Name: b

Ports: 7, 11, 16, 24

Info: all

Port 16 has been assigned to a segment that includes hosts that belong to
workgroup A and workgroup B. Port 13 connects workgroup A to the
router and port 24 connects workgroup B to the router.

In the above steps, both command lines did not specify a specific
classification of workgroup and have defaulted to the all category that
allows broadcasts of any protocol. To specify a specific IP network you
would need to add the IP network ID.

The following LCM commands re-define the previous example as
workgroups with an IP network classification:

1. To create workgroup A:

FN10 > workgroup A 3-5,13,16 ip 198.113.120.0

LCM responds with the following display:

Name: a

Ports: 3, 4, 5, 13, 16

Info: IP 198.113.120.0 255.255.255.0
