The
CoreBuilder 7000 Family ATM Switches Management Guide
provides
all the information you need for configuring and setting up the
CoreBuilder
®
7000 family ATM switch in ATM networking environments.
It is applicable for both the Base and Extended versions of the software.
This guide is intended for the system or network administrator who is
responsible for configuring and managing the CoreBuilder 7000 family
ATM switch. It assumes a working knowledge of local area network (LAN)
operation, and a familiarity with communications protocols that are used
on interconnected LANs. No prior knowledge of 3Com’s CoreBuilder
networking equipment is necessary to understand this guide.
If the information in the release notes that are shipped with this product
differs from the information in this guide, follow the instructions in the
