Token ring networks used with the Fiery SI use IPX protocols. After enabling token ring and selecting the maximum frame size, you continue with IPX (Novell) Setup. You can set up a maximum of eight token ring connections, but you have to configure a different NetWare file server for each token ring connection. Enable Token Ring Yes/No [No] Select Yes if you use token ring. When you select Yes, the Fiery SI verifies the token ring hardware configuration. Maximum Frame Size (bytes) 632/4216/17690 [4216] Select the maximum size (in bytes) of the data frame along the token ring network. In general, you should leave this at the default 4216. If your network requires it, you can change the value. The Fiery SI configures the token ring hardware, and then displays the IPX (Novell) menu (page 2-14). The options are the same as for IPX on Ethernet networks, except that the NetWare Server Poll Interval does not apply to token ring networks. From the IPX (Novell) menu, choose Add File Server. See page 2-15 for details. When you have connected all the servers you have configured for the token ring network, choose another IPX (Novell) Setup option or choose Exit Network Setup and proceed to Printer Setup.

Network Setup options
Token Ring Setup options
This setup can be used only if your system has the Token Ring option installed. Token
ring networks used with the Fiery SI use IPX protocols. After enabling token ring and
selecting the maximum frame size, you continue with IPX (Novell) Setup. You can set
up a maximum of eight token ring connections, but you have to configure a different
NetWare file server for each token ring connection.
When you have connected all the servers you have configured for the token ring net-
work, choose another IPX (Novell) Setup option or choose
Exit Network Setup
and
proceed to Printer Setup.
Network Setup
Token Ring Setup
Enable Token Ring
Yes/No [No]
Select
Yes
if you use token ring. When you select
Yes
, the Fiery SI verifies the token
ring hardware configuration.
Maximum Frame Size (bytes)
632/4216/17690 [4216]
Select the maximum size (in bytes) of the data frame along the token ring network. In
general, you should leave this at the default
4216
. If your network requires it, you can
change the value.
The Fiery SI configures the token ring hardware, and then displays the IPX (Novell)
menu (page 2-14). The options are the same as for IPX on Ethernet networks, except
that the
NetWare Server Poll Interval
does not apply to token ring networks.
From the IPX (Novell) menu, choose
Add File Server
. See page 2-15 for details.
