Workgroup Configuration

Figure 5-1. Virtual Workgroups Window

You can view and modify existing work groups as well as configure new work groups from this window. The Workgroup Table at the top of the window lists each existing work group along with its configuration information. The Add/Modify section of this window allows you to set-up the parameters of your work group, including Name and Type. The Ports in Workgroup section of the window allows you to choose the ports that will be included in the workgroup.

NOTE

The IP Address, IP Mask, and IPX Network fields in the Add/Modify section of the Virtual Workgroups window are not applicable to the FN100 and are therefore grayed out. Though they may not appear this way upon opening the window, once you select a Type of workgroup (see step #3 below), these fields will go gray.

Configuring a Workgroup

To add or modify a workgroup using the Virtual Workgroups window:

1.To modify an existing workgroup, click on the desired entry in the Workgroup Table. The selected workgroup’s configuration information will be reflected in the Add/Modify and Ports in Workgroup sections of the window.

2.Type a name in the Name field in the Add/Modify portion of this window. The name can be 1-16 alphanumeric characters. You will use the name to identify the workgroup.
