Setting the Dip Switches

The 10BASE-FL Module has two 8-position dip switches (SW1 and SW2) located on the rear of the board. Figure 3-1 shows the location and default settings of the SW1 and SW2 dip switches. You may need to reconfigure one or more of these switches depending on your configuration requirements.

The dip switch settings for the 10BASE-FL Module are ignored if an appropriate ONline management module is installed in the concentrator. For this reason, use the management commands (rather than the dip switches) to configure the 10BASE-FL Module. If you have an installed Ethernet Management Module (EMM) at Version 4.01 or higher, install the module first and then refer to the Configuring the Module section in this chapter for more information.
