FDDI Support
The MSH chassis (3C18001) which is fitted with a FDDI
backplane, supports three managed 100Mbs FDDI rings.
Rings are created with an FDDI RingBuilder Module and one or
more port cards (fiber, UTP or any combination of these up to ten
modules). RingBuilder Modules may contain up to two FDDI
Media Modules, which connect to external FDDI devices. Port
cards associated with a RingBuilder Module must be to the left of
that RingBuilder Module. A special FDDI interface on the
backplane allows a LinkSwitch FDDI Module to communicate with
the associated RingBuilder Module on its left. The user guide
which accompanies your RingBuilder Module gives you a full
description of how to deploy the FDDI modules in an MSH
chassis. Management is through the MSH display panel RS232
