To deploy the P1GCCB Portable Tap into your network, simply:
·
Configure DIP switches on back of TAP (see previous page)
·
Install network TAP into the live network
·
THIS NEEDS TO BE DONE WITH NO POWER CONNECTED TO THE TAP
·
Using two (2) straight through Ethernet cables, connect ports [
A
] and [
B
] of the P1GCCB between the
two (2) live network devices where monitoring is desired. Again, with
NO POWER
to the TAP verify
network traffic is flowing. Traffic will flow with no power to the tap.
·
If traffic does not flow, then we need to verify network speeds and duplexing. In 10M and 100M
environments, one (1) straight through cable and one (1) crossover cable maybe required.
·
Verify live network is up and running
·
Power up the TAP
·
Connect ports [
C
] and [
D
] of the P1GCCB to the monitoring tools for directional network monitoring
Note
:
Network Cables MDI/MDIX determines direction of monitor output port
A
nytime the configuration switches are changed the user must remove and then apply power for the changes to take effect.
