Chapter 1: Introduction About F iberLinX FiberLinX from IMC Networks is an IEEE 802.3 compliant, SNMP- manageable media converter/LAN extender/Ethernet bridge that can be managed remotely.
1.2 See Chapter 4 of this guide for more example FiberLinX installations. About F iberLinX Modules FiberLinX Modules can be installed into any IMC Networks PowerChassis/100-Series.
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation Installing a FiberLinX Module involves the following steps: 1) Configuring the FiberLinX Module via its eight-position Dip switch for the following: l Half/Full Duplex.
The following table shows the function for each of the eight Dip switches on FiberLinX . Refer to the section on each feature for specific configuration information . Switches 1 & 2: Fiber Optic Type These Dip switch settings are configured at the factory and should NOT be changed in the field.
Switches 7 & 8: Configuring FiberLinX as a Host, Remote or Standalone Unit When two FiberLinX units are paired with one another, each FiberLinX unit can be configured to be either a Host unit or a Remote unit.
receiving a fiber link, FiberAlert disables the media converter's fiber transmitter, thus mirroring the link status of the opposite end of the fiber. Both fiber link LEDs on either side of the devices should extinguish, alerting you to the fault.
Selecting a Crossover/P ass- Through Connection Once a FiberLinX is installed, you can select a crossover workstation or pass-through repeater/hub connection for the twisted pair data port.
FAR TP LINK Glows green when a link is established on remote (far-end) TP data port. SNMP Blinks green with SNMP activity. TP ACT Blinks green with TP activity. NOTE: The FAR CPU UP LED and the FAR TP LNK LED only function when two FiberLinX are connected to one another (i.
Chapter 3: Configuring and Managing F iberLinX This chapter details the steps you must complete to configure and manage your FiberLinX . Required Management Configuration Steps In order for the instal.
HUBCTRL32 HUBCTRL32 (Hub Control 32) is an in-band configuration utility created by IMC Networks that lets users quickly and easily complete the first stages of SNMP configuration for IMC Networks SNMP-manageable devices.
System Requirements To run iView for FiberLinX , the management PC must be equipped with the following: 20 MB free disk space, 32 MB RAM as well as one of the following operating systems: Wind.
Once in OpenView , highlight the F iberLinX icon and select the T ools , F iberLinX ; OpenView will then launch iView . If NO T Using iView NOTE: Installation of SNMP software differs from one package to another. This section describes the steps required to integrate the IMC Networks agent with other management software.
Chapter 4: Application Examples FiberLinX can be used in many configurations based upon application, network architecture and management security requirements.
Example 2: Fiber Conversion and Remote Management Between Two Copper -Based Switches In this situation, configure the Central sites unit as a Host with management traffic through the twisted pair data port, and the Remote site's unit to accept management traffic through the fiber data port.
Example 3: Fiber Conversion and Highly Secure Remote Management Between Two Copper -Based Switches For the highest level of management security, route SNMP management traffic completely away from the switch. Two FiberLinX units are also used in this configuration.

Chapter 5: T echnical Specifications F iber Optic Cleaning Guidelines Fiber Optic transmitters and receivers are extremely susceptible to contamination by particles of dirt or dust which can obstruct the optic path and cause performance degradation. Good system performance requires clean optics and connector ferrules.
WARNING! Integrated circuits and fiber optic components are extremely susceptible to electrostatic discharge damage. Do not handle these components directly unless you are a qualified service technician and use tools and techniques that conform to accepted industry practices.

Appendix Assigning IP Information to F iberLinX Using DB-9 Serial Port The serial port uses an IBM-compatible DB-9 serial connector. To connect the device to your terminal/computer, use a DB 9-pin male/female null modem cable.
Command List I = Enter New Saved Parameter Values P = Change Password T = New Trap Destination K = Remove ALL Trap Destinations C = New Community String U = Delete ALL Community Strings E = End Session NOTE: You must reboot after making any modifications to the Saved Values or changes will not take effect.
Deleting Communities To delete all community strings and start over, press U . You will then be asked, Are you sure you want to delete all future strings? Press Y to proceed, N to abort. Press Enter . NOTE: The above function will delete ALL community strings.
HUBCTRL32 Installation Instructions Software and Hardware Requirements HUBCTRL32 for Windows NT requires the following: l Windows NT version 4.0 or higher. l The same hardware requirements for Windows NT plus a network interface card. l Internet Explorer 4.
Installing HUBCTRL32 Once the setup is launched: 1) Another Welcome dialog box for the HUBCTRL32 Setup Program will appear. NOTE: It is strongly recommended that you exit all Windows applications before continuing. Click Next to continue, Cancel to exit the installation process.
9) As stated earlier, the Networking Control Panel application will launch once you finish the Setup Utility. Here you must install the drivers necessary for running HUBCTRL32.
