CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

This section provides the procedures for connecting twisted pair segments
from the network or other devices to the DLE02-MA or the DLE52-MA.
If the DLE02-MA and the DLE52-MA are being installed in a
network using SmartTrunking, there are rules concerning the
network cable and port configurations that must be followed for
SmartTrunking to operate properly. Refer to the list of
supported features in the release notes to determine if
SmartTrunk is supported. Before connecting the cables, refer to
the SmartTrunk User's Guide for the configuration information.
