You do not have to enter the connect command to effect the connection to the ring. When you enter the disconnect (discon) command, you disable the ports on the installed modules and disconnect the hub from the ring. The TOKEN LED on the management module turns off to indicate the hub is no longer receiving tokens on the ring. CAUTION: To avoid the possible loss of data on devices connected to the hub, invoke the disconnect command before removing or adding a module. When the connect or disconnect function has been completed, this notification appears: Done. logout Command When you want to close a session from the console, enter the logout command. This command also closes a Telnet session if access to the console was through Telnet.

Using the Hub
Using Connectivity Commands
Three connectivity commands deal with connecting the hub to the FDDI ring,
disconnecting the hub from the ring, and logging out of a console session.
connect
and
disconnect
Commands
Once you have installed the hub and attached it to the ring and to other network
devices, you have established a
connect
condition.
You do not have to enter the
connect
command to effect the connection to the ring.
When you enter the
disconnect
(
discon
) command, you disable the ports on the
installed modules and disconnect the hub from the ring.
The TOKEN LED on
the management module turns off to indicate the hub is no longer receiving
tokens on the ring.
CAUTION:
To avoid the possible loss of data on devices connected to the hub,
invoke the
disconnect
command before removing or adding a module.
When the
connect
or
disconnect
function has been completed, this notification
appears:
Done.
logout
Command
When you want to close a session from the console, enter the
logout
command.
This command also closes a Telnet session if access to the console was through
Telnet.
