| The 5-4-3 rule does apply here and I see it as 2 repeaters, 3
segments and all three counting toward the 3 coax limit. You have to
account for these 2 10baseT segments in the coax limit otherwise you could
build a net like this, which is clearly illegal -
PC--10baseT--R--coax--R--coax--R--coax--R--10baseT--PC

| 3279.2 | All coax segments in stack = 1 coax under 5-4-3 rule | NCMAIL::SCHEID | | Wed Feb 14 1996 17:28 | 21 |
| I'm confused ...
I did'nt explain this well enough
PC #1 is connected via utp cable (seg #1) to a 90T16 repeater (repeater
#1) which is connected via Coax (seg #2, coax segment #1) to a another
90T16 (repeater #2) which connects via UTP(seg #3) the second PC
2 repeaters 3 Segs 1 of which is coax ...
Bill,
based on your initial reply what if we had a stack of 12 repeaters
does each coax segment connecting members of the stack count towards
coax segments under the 5-4-3 rule ...
I hope not ... we advertise these stacks as being able to have up 232
ports ...
that is the case
trouble...

| 3279.3 | NETdesigner V1.9 tool says config is OK | NETCAD::BRAGDON | | Wed Feb 14 1996 18:12 | 8 |
| I just ran the 3279.0 config through the NETdesigner V1.9 tool.
It validated the config: 2 repeaters, 1 mixing segment, 2 links,
with the assumption that no maximum lengths were exceeded.
The config in 3279.1 also gets analyzed as legal, again using the
NETdesigner V1.9 tool, which just came out in BETA release.
