Statements of Compliance

FCC This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference,and (2) this device must accept

any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial envi-

ronment. This equipment uses, generates, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not

installed in accordance with the operator’s manual, may cause harmful interference to radio

communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause inter-

ference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Changes or modifications made to this device which are not expressly

approved by Cabletron Systems could void the user’s authority to

operate the equipment.

About This Manual

Rev Date Reason for Update

01 March 1998 General availability

This manual supplements screen prompts andmenus as an aid in configuring the database and

performing system operations on a Netlink FRX4000 or FRX6000. Before using the manual,

you should befamiliar with FRX hardware, as well asthe protocols (framerelay, IP,SNA, etc.)

you will be using.

Terminology and Conventions

This typeface represents general text. This typeface represents keyboard input and video output.

(This text is dark cyan in on-screen versions of the manual, and black in paper versions.)

In on-screen versions of the manual, items in blue are links to other places in the manual.

Thissymbol pointsto an informational noterelating to thetext,table,or figurethat

immediately precedes or follows it.

This symbol and text identifies a cautionary note, the content of which

is more critical to heed than an informational note.

The following references to keyboard keys appear in the manual and/or on the screen:

[N] is a reference to a key on your keyboard (where “N” is the key).

Enter means that you should type in the information, then press the [Enter] key.

Type is similar to Enter, except that the word “[Enter]” follows the information to be

typed (e.g., “type n [Enter]”).

Press means press (hit, strike) the key once. Pressing the [Enter] key afterwards is not

necessary.

[Ctrl] followed by one or two other key designations, must be struck simultaneously

with the other keys shown.

If astatement ends witha reference to a key—for example, “....then press [Enter].”—the period

is not part of the data to be entered. If a period should be entered, it will be shown as [.]. The

same applies to all other punctuation.When instructed to, forexample, “press [A], [B] from the

Main Menu,” this means press [A], then [B], not [A] comma [B].

Screen Displays

Screen Displays are provided to show the general appearance of actual screens. They are only

examples—the information shown is not always representative of an operational system.
