CLAN Debate

[PBXJay]

Does anybody know what the max setting a CLAN card can do?
We had it set at 10/Fullduplex and I was told that it had to be set at 10/Half.
Odd thing is that the card set to 10/Full appears to be working fine.
Thanks

Depending on your CLAN board, the new TN799DP can do 10/100 full or half duplex

the older TN799 boards did 10mbit/half.

Granted it might be working, but i bet if you were checking for link errors on your switches, you'd find quite a few..

The TN799/B/C boards are all 10half. These use the 259A adapter and pin out on pairs 2 and 3. The TN799DP can be 100 but only if you have the correct adapter (medpro adapter 8485255887), R10, and program it in the switch.

What I really hate is this:

configuring an IP address for my card, my network is 192.168.0.0/22. If i set the ip address to anything 192.168.*.*, it forces me to use the subnet mask 255.255.255.0 (not 255.255.252.0, which is what I set up the network to be)

Now, if i give it a 10.*.*.* address, it allows me to change the subnet mask to 255.0.0.0 (Class A)

What the heck... has Lucent never heard of classless networks or subnetting?!!

so now, i had to give it an IP address and subnet mask, and only configure the switch using a computer that exists in a certain VLan that matches the Netmask.

We use VLSM on our Definities in our network, we have all 10.x.x.x/23

all are r9.5

I just tried what you're saying on our demo definity and that is true.. What is AVAYA thinking?
