Port

Press 1 and then press 1 again to display the current Ethernet

 

 

 

port configuration parameters and current settings.

 

 

 

NOTE

If the optional Token-Ring telemetry interface is not installed, the probe will not

 

 

allow you to change the Fast Ethernet interface’s port type from telemetry.

 

 

If the Token-Ring telemetry interface is installed, you can configure either the

 

 

Fast Ethernet interface or the Token-Ring interface as the telemetry interface. The

 

 

Fast Ethernet interface comes from the factory configured as Telemetry and the

 

 

Token-Ring interface comes configured as Monitor/Transmit and is disabled.

 

 

“Disabled” in this case means that the interface does not function at all, not as a

 

 

Telemetry port nor as a Monitor/Transmit port. If you configure the Token-Ring

 

 

interface as Telemetry, the Fast Ethernet interface automatically becomes

 

 

configured as Monitor/Transmit and is disabled.

 

 

Port Type

The Fast Ethernet interface is always a Telemetry port. The

 

 

 

 

 

telemetry port does not maintain network statistics for the

Fast Ethernet interface. The telemetry interface only allows the retrieval of WAN network statistics. Port 1 is the Fast Ethernet interface and it is the telemetry port by default. If the Token-Ring interface is also installed, you can select either the Fast Ethernet or the Token-Ring interface (but not both) as the telemetry port. Refer to “Token-Ring Telemetry Interface Configuration” on page 29 for information on configuring the Token-Ring interface. The probe must be configured with exactly one telemetry port.
