3Com 6412M-25-TP Network Router User Manual


 
Connecting the Module to the Network
When you install an 6412M-25-TP module, it is by default set to Isolated mode and all
of its ports are disabled. When a module is isolated, no network activity takes place on
it and it cannot be accessed by the network. This is a security measure that protects
your ATM network from unauthorized access and module dysfunction.
To establish the module's connection to the network, enter the following command at
the ATM console prompt:
SET MODULE slot CONNECTED
where slot specifies the slot number of the ONcore 12-Port 25 Mbps ATM I/O module.
The module's ports will not be enabled. This allows you to configure individual ports
before enabling them. If you wish to enable all ports using the current values (either
the default values if the module has not been used, or the previous values entered),
enter the following command:
SET MODULE slot CONNECTED ENABLE
If you wish to enable individual ports using the current values (either the default values
if the module has not been used, or the previous values entered), enter the following
command:
SET PORT slot.port ENABLE
