Possible FNB multiplexer configurations include:
•
Attached Left (<––––|) – that is, connected via the backplane to the
module on its immediate left, but not to the right.
•
Attached Right (|–––>) – that is, connected via the backplane to the
module on its immediate right, but not to the left.
•
Attached Left/Right (<--->) – that is, connected via the backplane to
the modules to its immediate left and right.
•
Detached Left/Right (|–––|) – that is, disconnected from any module to
its left or right, via the backplane.
•
Bypassed (<-B ->) - that is, all station ports (and in some instances ring
ports) are bypassed to form a self-contained ring on the module.
However, neighboring MIMs will still be attached via the FNB
backplane. The TRMM and the TRMMIM cannot be bypassed.
•
Bypassed Right (<-B -|) - that is, the module is bypassed by the module
to its right, but connected to the module to its left.
•
Bypassed Left (|-B ->) - that is, the module is bypassed by the module
to its left, but connected to module to its right.
To configure the FNB or Bypass MUX:
1. Select the ADMINISTRATIVE mode.
2. Highlight the MUX field for the desired module.
3. Toggle between the possible FNB/BYPASS MUX configurations and
press Enter to execute the change.
