3Com 5124M-TPCL manual Enabling Remote Diagnostics Mode, Installing and Operating the Module 3

SET MODULE {slot} NETWORK {ethernet_1} {ethernet_2} {ethernet_3} {isolated}

To assign a specific connector (bank of 12 ports) to a network, use the following management command:

SET MODULE {slot} CONNECTOR_{1}_NETWORK {ethernet_1}

{2} {ethernet_2} {ethernet_3} {isolated_1} {isolated_2}

Note: Assigning one connector to ISOLATED_1 and the other connector to ISOLATED_2 creates two isolated 12-port subnetworks. Assigning both connectors to the same isolated network creates a single 24-port isolated network.

Enabling Remote Diagnostics Mode

When used with a 3Com Fault-Tolerant 10BASE-T Transceiver, remote diagnostics mode allows the 24-Port Module to detect certain unusual failure conditions (including disruption of single wires in the twisted pairs).

Refer to the Fault-Tolerant 10BASE-T Transceiver Installation Guide for more information on this feature.

To enable remote diagnostics mode for a specific port, use the following management command:

SET PORT {slot.port} MODE {remote_diagnostics} {slot.port}

{non_remote_diagnostics}
