The Model 1001MC polls the system looking for NetLink modems. If the address of the NetLink modem is not configured or does not match the rack that it is installed in, the Model 1001MC may not find the card. The address range that is polled is determined by the configuration of the system. The system administrator must make sure that the software configuration within the Model 1001MC matches the hardware configura-...
