Chapter 2 — Connecting to the Network
This chapter provides detailed information about your
AsantéBridge and some pointers on different ways you can con-
nect it to your network.
The chapter opens with
About Bridging, a short introduction to
transparent learning bridges and how these features are imple-
mented in the AsantéBridge 1012.
Using the 3in1 Port gives practical guidelines for connecting to
your network using any of three possible methods: AUI, BNC, or
an RJ45 In/Out link.
Configuring a Redundant Link describes how you can set up a
second, parallel, 3in1 port connection that automatically becomes
active if you lose your primary connection link.
Setting Up Out-of-Band Links tells you how to daisychain your
AsantéBridge for out-of-band management using AsantéView 2.2.
