Enterasys Networks RBTSA-AB Benutzerhandbuch

The Ethernet Adapter supports up to 16 specific clients (for example, 
computers and printers) and keeps track of the clients with a list of their 
MAC addresses.

After the client limit is reached, you must clear the client list to allow a 
new client to associate with the network. For example, in a hub 
configuration with 16 clients connected, if you disconnect a desktop 
computer and connect a new laptop in its place, you must clear the client 
list to establish network association for the laptop.

To clear the Ethernet Client List:

1 Disconnect a client by unplugging its Ethernet cable from the hub or the 

Ethernet Adapter.

2 Launch the Configuration Management System.

3 Under System Status, click Ethernet Client List.

4 In the Ethernet Client List page, click Clear Client List.

The Ethernet Adapter erases the client list. Clients that remain connected to 
the Ethernet Adapter are added to the list automatically when they next 
interact with the network.

5 Connect the new client by plugging its Ethernet cable into the hub or the 

Ethernet Adapter.

Under System Summary, click Connection Status to view a summary of the 
Ethernet Adapter’s current connection information. See Table 8 on page 29 
for details.
