Installing and Operating the Module 3 - 13
Selecting a Network
The ONline 10BASE-FL Module is equipped with the technology to work
with the ONline Concentrator's unique TriChannel™ Architecture. This
feature lets you assign the module to any of three networks (or none) on
the ONline System Concentrator backplane. Refer to the ONline System
Concentrator Installation and Operation Guide, Chapter 1, for a discussion
of the ONline TriChannel Architecture.
To set the module to a network or set it to isolated mode, use the
following management command:
SET MODULE {
slot
} NETWORK {ethernet_1}
{ethernet_2}
{ethernet_3}
{isolated}
Note: The dip switch settings on the module refer to the
backplane connection as the “channel” connection. The
channel setting and the network setting are the same.
Modules set to the same network communicate with each
other.
Enabling Port Redundancy
You can enable port redundancy in one of the following ways:
❑ If you have network management, you can enable or disable main
port redundancy between any two ports on the 10BASE-FL Module.
❑ If you do not have management, you can use the dip switches on the
module to configure redundancy between ports 1 and 2 on the
module and/or ports 3 and 4.
