9F120-08 / 9F122-12 / 9F125-08 Module Specific Information

Module Specific Configuration Screen

In the FNB Resource Configuration Screen, you determine which of the two FNB rings contains the MAC. The 9F120 MicroLAN Module Specific Configuration Screen allows you to assign one of the two FNB rings (either the ring that contains the MAC or the ring that does not contain the MAC) to each of the module’s M- ports. The default ring that is assigned to each of the module’s M-ports is the ring that contains the MAC.
