1.4 Asanté Talk Power-Up
Asanté
Talk takes approximately 15 seconds to come up on a net-
work. It automatically detects the presence of LocalTalk devices
and registers them as nodes on the Ethernet network.
After the Asanté
Talk is active on the Ethernet network, any Local-
Talk nodes that are connected to the LocalTalk segment of the net-
work will appear within the Apple Macintosh Chooser. Those nodes
will be able to utilize server resources on either Ethernet or Local-
Talk (if operating systems are close) and AppleTalk capable printers
on the LocalTalk side of the network.
1.5 Asanté Talk LEDs
The four (4) LEDs on the Asanté
Talk indicate activity on the
Ethernet and LocalTalk networks. The LEDs are shown on the table
