Difference in connecting to the
extended network via the daisy-
chain port or SmartExtenter Module
The Fast EtherHub 3500 stack can be connected to a larger
network using any device such as a switch, bridge or router.
Depending on your network configuration, you may attain
better performance by making a direct connection from the
daisy-chain port (or a station port) on this hub to an
interconnection device. Making a connection from an
extender module may introduce slightly more delay.
Check your connections
11. Verify network communications by ensuring that -
• you have made all the necessary connections
• you can access any connected resources
• the hub’s indicators are functioning properly
If you encounter any problems in installing the Fast EtherHub
3500 system, refer to Chapter 2 for a detailed description of
installation procedures, or to Appendix A for help in
troubleshooting.
