537.0. "OOB Management Disable Ports A and/or B .. No light?" by SYORPD::DEEP (Bob Deep - SYO, DTN 256-5708) Tue Apr 14 1992 07:43

Can someone confirm or deny that from the OOB port on the DEFCN, I will be able
to disable the A and/or B ports, and that by doing so, there is NO LIGHT 
transmitted after the port is disabled?

Also, does anyone have a pointer to online doc that describes the OOB management
in detail?

Thanks...

If you disable a port, the light is off.  That applies across
the board.

    Yes, you can use the Out of Band Management (OBM) to disable the 
    PHY port.
    
    The DEFCN installation manual(? part #) has a section on Using OBM.  
    That's the only place I've seen it described.
