Per-Port Intrusion Security

Each port on this hub can have intrusion security enabled. Intrusion security prevents unauthorized individuals from accessing the network. Through the network management software, Ethernet addresses that represent authorized users can be assigned to each hub port. If a packet using a source address other than those used by authorized users is received by a port, the port is disabled and the network manager is notified.

Bridge Information

The bridge information screen allows the network administrator to view the install and operation status of all bridging modules within a segment. To avoid non-terminating network data loops, only one bridging module at a time can be active. The hub stack management software always enables the module installed in the highest hub in the stack. The management program can only test for the presence or absence of an installed bridge and not whether it is functional. Under the Bridge Present column, /A” indicates no bridging module present in that hub.
