TCPIP232 Hardware Configuration:TCPIP232 hardware operation depends on your network connection. TCPIP232 is able to operate
with HUB and Network Switcher. There are 2 hardware configurations:
1. Mirror Mode
This Mode supports HUB and Programmable Network Switchers. The user needs to provide a
port for TCPIP232 to capture ATM transactions on the HUB and needs to mirror the ATM LAN port
for TCPIP232 port to capture data. This kind of switcher we called “ programmable network switcher”
which is very expensive.
2. Tapping Mode.
The Tapping mode supports HUB and Typical Network Switcher . T appping Mode captures
ATM transactions by tapping receiving data at the A TM only . So HUB and Switch will not see
TCPIP232 as a network device. see Figure 3

Tapping Mode Setup. (This is defualt from manufacturer)
1. Close JP7 and JP15. Open JP16. (Lifted up Pin of C20 on Old PCB)
2. JP6 Close PIN5-6, PIN11-12
Mirror Mode Setup
1. Close JP7, JP15, JP16 ( Need to install C20)
2. JP16 Close Pin1-2, Pin3-4, Pin5-6,Pin7-8,Pin9-10,Pin11-12,Pin13-14,Pin15-16
