TPIMs are optional features that let you expand your trunk 
connections using different media types. TPIMs have embedded 
repeaters and retime all data. Cabletron offers a variety of TPIMs for 
trunk Ring In or Ring Out connections. Table 1-2 lists each TPIM.

 

The Ring Speed Switch lets you select ring speeds of either 4 Mbps or 
16 Mbps. The factory default setting is 16 Mbps.

 

The TRXI uses Flash EEPROMs that allow you to download new and 
updated firmware using Cabletron System’s Remote LANVIEW/
Windows, version 2.3 or later or any device using BOOTP or TFTP 
protocols.

 

Cabletron Systems’ LANVIEW LED Status Monitoring and 
Diagnostics System is a convenient troubleshooting tool that helps you 
diagnose power failures, RI/RO status, cable faults, ring speed, link 
problems, and network activity.

 

Cabletron Systems’ Distributed LAN Monitor (DLM) is a software 
option for the TRXI. DLM provides a method for locally polling and 
monitoring devices on a local area network to minimize network 
management traffic on an enterprise, campus, or wide area network.
