Hardware Overview
The Access Server 316 connects devices (such as printers, terminals, PCs, and
modems) to local area networks (LANs). The Access Server 316 is Ethernet/IEEE
802.3-based and supports standard Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 and l0BaseT Ethernet/
IEEE 802.3 directly, and ThinWire Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 through an adapter. The
Access Server 316 can be installed on a desktop or in a 19-inch rack. The Access
Server 316 supports Flash RAM capability and other nonvolatile forms of
memory. The Access Server 316 is shipped with Flash RAM installed. Should the
Flash RAM ever fail, it can be ordered separately and replaced on the Access
Server 316.
The Access Server 316 can download the software image from the network or
from the Flash RAM option. The Flash RAM option allows for a boot/powerup
without having to download the image through the network. The Access Server
316 will support up to 8 Mbytes of memory with the use of two single-in-line
modules (SIMs). These SIMs can be installed as memory updates by the customer.
