FNB Resource Configuration Codes

 

The 9F310-02 and 9F315-02 FDDI Switch Modules is capable of bridging/switching 
any three, of five possible interfaces, depending on the way you configure the 
module. The module’s INB connection is fixed (not user-configured). 

The FNB Resource Configuration Screen allows you to connect both front panel ports, 
both FNB ports, or one front panel and one FNB port to the bridge/switch. 
Redirecting one or both of the module’s front panel FDDI interfaces to the FNB 
backplane creates an INB to FNB bridge/switch product that allows migration from 
FNB modules to INB modules.

The FNB Resource Configuration Screen lists all the possible connections that the 
9F310-02 and 9F315-02 FDDI Switch Modules can support on the FNB, displays the 
current connection, and allows you to change the connection. Table 2 lists and 
describes the FDDI connections from which you can select.
