Installing and Connecting the TokenSpeed Module

Management Connection

A serial connection for a SpeedView network management station is provided on the TokenSpeed/MCP module. The cable for this connection is shipped with the Centillion switch. Attach the serial MCP cable to the Mini DIN 8 port on the TokenSpeed/MCP module (see Figure 3-7).

Figure 3-7. Connecting the serial MCP cable to the TokenSpeed/MCP

Attach the other side of the MCP cable to the serial port of your management station, either directly or through the DB-25 to DB-9 adapter that is also shipped with the switch.

Verifying the Installation

When the TokenSpeed module is installed and the cables are connected to the ports, the module is ready for operation. All connected ports are enabled, unless they have been disabled by SpeedView. Enabling and disabling TokenSpeed module ports is described in Using SpeedView 2.1 for Windows.

You can verify the installation of a TokenSpeed module by looking at the LEDs on the module while the module is operating and during the system startup sequence. This section describes the TokenSpeed module LEDs and the LED sequence that occurs when the module starts.
