Introducing the AsantéBridge
The AsantéBridge 1012 is an AsantéHub 1012 that has a
transpar-
ent two port bridge
contained in the same chassis.
Logically, the AsantéBridge looks like this:
Figure 1-1 The AsantéBridge 1012
The bridge provides connections between two network seg-
ments: One segment is the 1012 hub itself, to which you can con-
nect other hubs, another backbone, or other network devices.
The second segment is connected via an AUI connector on the
back of the AsantéBridge 1012 unit.
This gives you the AsantéHub 1012 as the connection point for
segment A (connected internally to the bridge hub port) and a
second AUI connector (the bridge external port) for segment B,
enabling you to connect a variety of different Ethernet devices.
Figure 1-2 shows a simple two segment network.
