Help! Looking for Docs for SynOptics LattisHub 2803 |
|
|
Google turns up a bunch of links to Bay Networks which are out of date.
Nortel bought them out but apparently didn't transfer the docs to
their support web site.

At Nortel website, under "Support | Technical Documentation"
Under Manufacture discontinued, System 2000 Ethernet Hubs...
See if this answer your questions.
From what I can remember, 2803 was quite simple box, a hub, no mgmt on
it, could be cascaded to others 2803 or 2813. Not much else.. |

The 2803, by itself, is a dumb unmanaged Ethernet repeater
and no documentation will shed any light on feature/function.
It was the optional second unit that could expand a 2813 hub.
The 2813 documentation is on the Nortel site as follows
www.nortelnetworks.com -> Support -> Manufacture Discontinued
-> System 2000 Ethernet Hubs: Documentation

Thanks, Julio. I was looking under the "Bay Networks" branded stuff.
Since the thing has a port labled "Terminal Port", I was assuming there
was some way to interact with it, set it up, manage it, or whatever :-)

Thanks, Paul. I guess I was looking in the wrong place, ie under the
"Bay Networks" brand. I have D/L the S2000 docs and will take a look
at them. It is curious that the box has a DB-9 port labeled "Terminal
Port" if it is indeed so dumb :-)

According to my now-ancient Training Guide for 28XX Hubs, the 2803
does have local mgmt by way of an RS-232 port on rear of unit. It
says to use an ASCII terminal, straight-thru cable from a PC Com
port, set for 9600bps, 8 data, no parity, 1 stop, no flow control.

Thanks, Reed. Yes, I noticed the DB-9 Terminal port. Any clue as to
the commands and responses one can get?

Speaking from personal experience (as in I used to use one): The
2813 isn't completely 'dumb,' though it's no switch. The menus
accessible through the console port give one the ability to partition
ports, check statistics, etc. You can also give the hub its own IP
address, as I recall (though what purpose this might serve, other than
for, maybe, SNMP management, I have no idea).
Happy hunting.

We weren't talking about the intelligent 2813/14, but rather
the unmanaged 2803/4.

That's as may be. However, my contention is that if something has
a console port built in it was meant to be used for such.
I will add this much: What has the original poster got to lose
simply by hooking up a terminal, or a PC running a terminal emulator,
and futzing with the interface? ;-)
Keep the peace(es).
