Note
Using DIP switches on the 8260 Ethernet 10-Port 10Base-FB Module, it is
only possible to assign all the ports to the same network. This network
can be one of the 8 Ethernet segments on the backplane, or isolated-1.

Enable/disable ports
Each port on the 8260 Ethernet 10-Port 10Base-FB Module can be
enabled/disabled independently from the other ports. You can use the
following management module command to enable/disable a port:
SET PORT {slot.port} MODE {enable|disable}
•
Set port redundancy
The port redundancy feature allows you to set redundancy between two
ports. The two ports can be on the same or different modules and can be of
different types. For example, a 10Base-T port can be defined to be a
redundant port for a 10Base-FB port. Also, port redundancy is allowed
between the 8250 and the 8260 ports. You can use the following
management module command to set port redundancy:
SET PORT {slot.port} MODE REDUNDANT {slot.port}
When configuring port redundancy, the redundancy should be enabled for
one end of the link only. This is shown in Figure 76.
Figure 76. Configuring Port Redundancy for 8260 Ethernet Modules
When port redundancy is no longer required, you can use the following
management command to set the port to operate in non-redundant mode:
SET PORT {slot.port} MODE NON-REDUNDANT
•
Enable/disable port alert
You may use the following command to enable/disable the port up and down
alerts received from the individual ports on this module:
SET PORT {slot.port} ALERT_FILTER {enable|disable}
