Before You Connect To A Token Ring Network - Xerox 480 ST System Administration Manual

Before You Connect to a Token Ring Network

NOTE
Xerox Document Centre System Administration Guide
If your printer is equipped with a Token Ring interface, to avoid
problems with your network you must configure the correct Ring
Speed and Source Routing settings for your environment prior to
connecting the printer to your network.
The default settings for the Ring speed and Source Routing are
16Mbps and None respectively. If you do not need to change these
then you do not need to read any further in this chapter.
As with any other Token Ring device, connecting the Document
Centre Token Ring card to your network while it is set at the
incorrect Ring Speed can cause severe problems on your network.
Before you connect the printer to your network, perform the
procedure on the next page entitled How to set the Ring Speed
and Source Routing.
