EtherHub 1500 System User’s Guide
2 Glossary
A 16-port intelligent hub with an SNMP-based network management
agent. It is a component of Accton’s EtherHub 1500 System.
Ethernet
A network communication system developed and standardized by
DEC, Intel, and Xerox, using baseband transmission, CSMA/CD
access, logical bus topology, and coaxial cable. The successor IEEE
802.3 standard provides for integration into the OSI model and
extends the physical layer and media with repeaters and
implementations that operate on fiber optics, broadband, and
unshielded twisted-pair.
FlexBus 1500 Ports
STP ports found at the backplane of the EtherHub labeled BUS IN and
BUS OUT. These ports are used for linking the hub to other
compatible hubs using Accton’s FlexBus 1500 STP cable.
Jabber
Refers to an abnormal Ethernet frame transmission. The frames
causing jabber are normally much too long. It may come from a
malfunctioning Ethernet card and may cause data loss for all network
users.
LED
Light emitting diode on the front panel of the EtherHub used for
monitoring a hub or network condition. A LED display corresponds to
a hub condition.
MIB
An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database
objects that contains information about the device. Note that MIB II
and Bridge MIB are simply subordinate components of the overall
MIB.
