798.0. "VNswitch 900 EF to SAC, LED-states?" by OSLLAV::BJORN (Bj�rn Olav Haugom) Thu Mar 13 1997 03:26

What is the normal LED status when you want to use the A/M port as M-port?

When setting the FDDI interface to station-type SAC, the LED on the A/M-port
went from flashing to black, and the B/S port LED went from flashing to steady 
green. 

I want to connect one server to the A/M-port, and I guess I need to set the 
station-type to SAC, right?

It depends.  Use SAC for a tree configuration.  Use DAS for a full ring 
connection.
