Full Duplex Functionality
The BRIM-E100 has the ability to transmit and receive at the same time.
Full duplex operation allows the BRIM-E100 when coupled with the
FE-100TX Fast Ethernet Interface Module to provide either 20 or 200
Megabit bandwidth throughput as long as the device at the other end of
the segment supports full duplex mode. The BRIM-E100 is also capable
of operating in either full or half duplex mode at 100 Mbps when
equipped with the Fiber Optic FE-100FX Fast Ethernet Interface Module.
The BRIM-E100 is configured through Local Management on the
management module (i.e., the EMM-E6, MicroMMAC, etc.) to operate in
either full duplex (20/200 Mbps) or standard Ethernet (10/100 Mbps)
mode.
MIB Support
For information on how to extract and compile individual MIBs, contact
Cabletron Systems Technical Support. Refer to Section 1.3, Getting Help.
LANVIEW Diagnostic LEDs
Cabletron Systems equips the BRIM-E100 with the LANVIEW visual
diagnostic and status monitoring system. LANVIEW LEDs provide
“at-a-glance” network status information.
Fast Ethernet Interface Module Connectivity
Fast Ethernet Interface Modules enable the configuration of the
BRIM-E100 to support a variety of media types. Cabletron Systems
currently offers the Fast Ethernet Interface Modules shown in Table 1-1.
