4 About Fast Ethernet Fast Ethernet is a network te chnology specified by IEEE Standard 802.3u. It extends the traditional 10Mbps (10 megabit/sec) Ethernet technology to achieve 100Mbps (100 megabit/sec) transmission and reception.
5 About Autonegotiation The basic idea of auto - negotiation can be understood by reflecting for a moment on the familiar process of making a dialup connection between two modems. You have probably heard some exchanges between your local modem and a modem at the other end of a telephone line.
6 concept, but much briefe r. The two devices involved in the autonegotiation will be your DFE - 690TXD and the switch or hub through which it is connected into the LAN.
7 supporting device. Once the auto - negotiation is completed, the line is ready, and it will p rovide an optimal data channel between the DFE - 690TXD and the supporting device. The line will remain ready without further auto - negotiation action until the link is broken.
8 LED Indicators The direct port features 2 LED indicators: 100 Indicator: indicates that data transmittal rate is at a fast 100 Mbps. 10 Indicator: indicates that data transmittal rate is at 10 Mbps.
9 Summary of Features Features of Model DFE - 690TXD Cardbus PC Card: • 100Mbps and 10Mbps data rates in compliance with IEEE 802.3 • Ethernet standards 100Base - TX and 10Base - T • PCMCIA PC Card Standard Ver.

14 “Uplink ” port. The “Uplink” port is only used when connecting your hub to another hub or switch. Diagnostics and Checking Communications Included on the CD - ROM is a “DFE - 690TXD PCMCIA Adapter Driver Program.
15 Pinging your DFE - 690TXD Card Follow these steps to Ping a device: Ping is the acronym for Packet Internet Groper (PING), a utility to determine if a specific IP a ddress is accessible. It works by sending a packet to the specified address and waiting for a reply.
16 Type in following: ping:xxx.xxx.xx.xx, where xxx.xxx.xx.xx i s the IP address to be pinged (i.e. 192.152.81.85). In this case, computer A is pinging its own IP address.
17 Net working Basics You may have had some ideas about how to use your new network prior to i nstalling this product - sharing files, printing from a computer on the network, or accessing the Internet on multiple computers with one connection. This section will help you get started on those ideas or even give you some new ones.
