DIGITAL MultiSwitch 612EX

This document is an installation and configuration guide for the DIGITAL MultiSwitch 612EX, a 12-port Ethernet switch with two modular option slots (Mod-MACs) supporting 10BaseFL, 100BaseFX, or 100BaseTX interfaces, allowing for up to 14 ports. It details how to install, cable, and configure the 612EX module and its Mod-MACs when deployed in a DIGITAL MultiSwitch 600 System (Stack Director or Stack Station) or a DEChub 900 MultiSwitch.

The guide covers initial product descriptions, step-by-step instructions for Mod-MAC installation and cabling, and the installation and cabling of the 612EX module into its chassis. It also outlines module configuration procedures, including restarting with factory defaults or current settings, showing current settings, dumping error logs, and product-specific options like security, storm control, and port switching modes. Furthermore, the document describes the management of the 612EX and the larger MultiSwitch 600 System using clearVISN or SNMP, including backplane auto healing and configuration guidelines for both systems. Instructions for removing modules, Mod-MACs, and stack levels are also provided.

Reference information in the appendices includes troubleshooting with LED states, detailed connector and pin assignments, product specifications (environmental, physical, power, acoustical), ordering options, associated documentation, and service/support information.
