2.6.5 Connecting to an Ethernet Network at the Console
Bulkhead Assembly
The Rack-Mountable VAX 4000 Model 500 console bulkhead assembly
contains an Ethernet controller that can connect the system to a network
using either standard or ThinWire Ethernet cabling.
The Ethernet connector switch (see Figure 2–24) activates either the
standard or ThinWire connector. To select the standard Ethernet, slide
the switch to the forward position. To select ThinWire, slide the switch
to the back position. The indicator light next to the selected connector
should be lit when the system is powered on, indicating the active
connector.
CAUTION
Turn the system off before you select a connector to
avoid disrupting the network.
