Hello,
In my last message 'Thanks for the Archives' I mentioned that I had found
the answer to my E0 'line protocol down' problem. Well I lied, although
turning off keepalive with the command 'no keepalive' under the E0
interface gives the 'line protocol up' message, the interface isn't really
working, seems no keepalive is good if you don't have anything to plug the
router into. I had the AUI transceiver connected to my no name 10/100
switch. The tranceiver (LanArt)was showing link down (1 blink).
I decided to plug it into my 1924 switch and it works fine.
Made up a crossover cable and connected the 1924 to the no-name 10/100 and
it works fine, also. I can connect from either the 10/100 uplink (25-26)
or the regular 10MG ports (1-24)
Why will the 1924 talk to the no name, but the 2501 won't?
Is it possible something with the transceiver (I guess I could try the the
same transceiver on the AUI port on the 1924 later)?
Some other misc. questions
I made up an ethernet loopback plug (RJ-45 with pins 1-3, 2-6) and plugged
it into the transceiver on the 2501, still couldn't get the line
up. Unplug the transceiver and plug it back in (resetting it) and it
works, line protocol up.
AUI transceiver loopback
I read about this beast in the archives, anyone know of a pinout?
Can it be used in place of a transceiver and a ethernet loopback?
Thanks,
Matt Wehland
