9F310-02 and 9F315-02 Module Specific Information
2
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.
