FP Web-Server V2.11 

168 

If no connection to an existing Ethernet network is used, you will find a couple of helpful remarks 
in the following paragraph. 

For using the email functions in such a "mini-network", an Email-Server has to be installed on 
the (or on one of the) computer. For example, on the Panasonic Ethernet exhibition board the 
Email-Server "1

st

 Class Mail Server 2.0" by "1cis.com" was used successfully. For further 

information, refer to Details on the Email-Server (see page 64). 

1.  Direct 1:1 connection: 

In the following example, only one computer should be used for carrying out the 
configuration of one or several FP Web-Servers: 

If only one computer (with Ethernet card) should be connected with one FP Web-Server 
pier-to-pier, a crossover-cable can be used between the computer and the FP 
Web-Server. Please use the following pin allocation for setting up a cable for connecting 
two Ethernet network interfaces (hubs, cascading, FP Web-Server to computer, etc.): 

- Ethernet (10-Base-T / 100-Base-Tx) use Standard Ethernet CAT.5 Crossover 

Cable: 

 

 

 

1TX_D1+ 3RX_D2+ 

2TX_D1- 6RX_D2- 

3RX_D2+ 1TX_D1+ 

6RX_D2- 2TX_D1- 

  

2.  Standard network connection: 

If more than one FP Web-Server should be connected with one (or several) computer, a 
hub or switch has to be used as a star coupler. A standard Ethernet 10BaseT hub can 
be used as a star coupler. When using a hub, you can use standard Ethernet twisted 
pair cables along with it.
