Re: MAU 8228 [7:39891]
Hi Pierre, Yes, I am using IBM 8228 as the Token-Ring Hub, connecting two Cisco 2612, with a straigth UTP cable. No problem so far, the Token-ring interface can run on 16MB speed. HTH Engelhard M.

RE: MAU
See if you can get an old Synoptics or Bay MAU - they should be relatively inexpensive - also, make sure you get the one's with RJ45 connectors to make your life easier. Really, ANY functioning MAU should work - start surfing Ebay. -Original Message- From: Mark Rose [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, January 22, 2001 9:15 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MAU I was just given a Cisco 2504 router to use.

RE: MAU
try ebay there are usually some there. You will probably need an IBM 8228 and the correct cables OR you can get RJ45 to token ring converters and plugged them into the IBM 8228. The converter part numbers are AM 017 Token Ring Direct. -Original Message- From: Mark Rose [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 22 January 2001 15:15 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: MAU I was just given a Cisco 2504 router to use.

RE: MAU trouble shooting
I assume you've tried different ports and different cables If it's a real IBM mau you may have to reinitialize the port. there is abattery powered tool that used to come with the mau. It also could be a speed mismatch if the mau has a way to set the ring speed. There used to be 4mbps only media filters (back in the day) if you are using one of those on a 16mbps ring, weird things can happen. daveh -Original Message-From: Circusnuts [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]Sent: Sunday, September 17, 2000 6:05 AMTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]Subject: MAU trouble shooting Does this mean my MAU is fried ???
