• Any network configuration should always involve the Network
Administrator.
The AXIS 850 and AXIS 851 CD-ROM Servers have AUI and
10baseT connectors. 10base2, 10base5 or optical fibre connectivity is
achieved by using an external transceiver.
The Axis 950 and Axis 951 CD-ROM Servers have connectors for
STP (Media Type 1) and UTP (Media Type 3).
To connect the Axis CD-ROM Server to your network follow these
steps:
1. Disconnect the CD-ROM server power supply to turn the
server off.
2. Record the CD-ROM server serial number. You will need this
number during the network configuration. The number is found
on the label on the back of the server.
3. If you have a Token Ring network, set the Ring Speed Switch
on the back panel of your AXIS 950 or AXIS 951 CD-ROM
Server to the ring speed of your network (4 or 16 Mb/s).
Do NOT change the Ring Speed Switch setting when the power
is on or the CD-ROM server is connected to the network.
4. Connect the network cable to the appropriate connector.
5. Connect power to the Axis CD-ROM Server.
The installation is now completed. Proceed with the configuration
according to sections 3, 4 and 5.
