537.0. "OOB Management Disable Ports A and/or B .. No light?" by SYORPD::DEEP (Bob Deep - SYO, DTN 256-5708) Tue Apr 14 1992 08:43

Can someone confirm or deny that from the OOB port on the DEFCN, I will be able
to disable the A and/or B ports, and that by doing so, there is NO LIGHT 
transmitted after the port is disabled?

Also, does anyone have a pointer to online doc that describes the OOB management
in detail?

Thanks...


Bob

	If you disable a port, the light is off. That applies across the board. paul

	Yes, you can use the Out of Band Management (OBM) to disable the PHY port. The DEFCN installation manual(? part #) has a section on Using OBM. That's the only place I've seen it described. bill
