3. Configuration

This chapter explains how to view and edit the configuration of the SSIM-H2-02

using a VT100 terminal emulator attached directly to the SmartStack STS16-20RM

Token Ring switch. The SSIM-H2-02 configuration can also be modified from a

remote VT100 console via a Telnet session. (The manual supplied with the

SmartStack STS16-20RM Token Ring Switch describes how to connect a network

management console).

This chapter is divided into the following sections:

•Introduction

•Bridging Modes

•Redundant Connections to Fast Ethernet Network

•General Guidelines

•Configuration Overview

•VLAN Configuration

•Port Configuration - TS Ports

•Frame Conversion Configuration

For more information on configuration, see the SmartStack STS16-20RM/STS16-

20FRM Token Ring Switch Installation and User Guide.
