E.6 Operation
In order to operate, the rear card must be connected to a front function card and
installed in the rack unit. It also requires a 10BASE-T connection. After power is
applied, the rear card automatically starts performing the bridging function
without further user intervention. MAC addresses discovered are automatically
loaded into the MAC address table. They are automatically deleted from the MAC
address table if they experience an inactivity of 8 minutes.
