LAN Support The Vanguard 300 features an onboard Ethernet interface that supports both 10BaseT and AUI. The factory default is AUI. The Vanguard 305 features an onboard Token Ring interface. Support includes: • 4 and 16 Mbps support • Type 1 STP (DB-9) • Type 3 UTP (RJ-45) Frame Relay & X.25 Service The Vanguard 300/305 provides serial devices with economical LAN access into public or private Frame Relay WAN networks via Ethernet or Token Ring. Because the Vanguard 300/305 also supports X.25, you can configure it as a PAD if Frame Relay is not an immediate need. When Frame Relay service becomes available, you can reconfigure the Vanguard 300/305 as a FRAD. Multiprotocol Support Support includes SDLC, Bisync, X.25, Async, IP/IPX, and Routing and Bridging, as well as many other serial protocols. Software Download Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) provides software downloading for network software and device configuration software. RFC 877 RFC 877 encapsulation of IP datagrams over an X.25 network allows for interoperability of Front End Processors (FEPs) that support X.25 and IP traffic as well as router vendors supporting RFC 877/1356.
