Appendix A.
Support for Pre-10BaseT Devices
This appendix provides guidelines for integrating non-10BaseT compatible
devices into your Asanté 10BaseT Local Area Network.
For a device that has an Ethernet card with an AUI port, simply obtain a TP-MAU
(Media Attachment Unit) such as the Asanté 10T MAU. A TP-MAU is an external
device which allows you to connect a 10BaseT RJ-45 connector to your AUI (DB-
15) port.
For a device with an adapter card that supports an earlier version of 10BaseT, you
should disable the Link Integrity test for the port connected to that device. First
check with the vendor to make sure disabling the Link Integrity will make the card
compatible with the AsantéHub 1012. Then follow these steps:
1.
Determine which port number the workstation is wired to on the
AsantéHub.
2.
From the AsantéView Port Control window, disable link integrity
testing on that port. (For this procedure, see AsantéView manual
for your version of AsantéView. )
You should be aware that:
•
AsantéView does not gather statistics from ports with Link Integrity
disabled.
•
The Link/Receive LED for the disabled port(s) is always on (green).
!
Note: Link Integrity can be disabled for the uplink in
hardware; see Chapter 1, “Quick Start.”
