Step 2 Connect Fast Ethernet ports on both the LAN and the WAN sides of the WAE
inline appliance by using the following cable types:
• On the LAN side of the connection, use a straight-through cable between the
WAE inline appliance and the network device.
• On the WAN side of the connection, use the cable that is different from the
cable that you would use to connect the two network devices directly (as
determined in
Step 1).
For example, if you are connecting a router and a switch (two different
devices) through the WAE inline appliance, use a straight-through cable on
the LAN side of the connection and use a crossover cable on the WAN side
of the connection. (If you were connecting the two different devices directly,
you would use a straight-through cable, so use the crossover cable instead.)
If you are connecting two switches (or two similar devices), use
straight-through cables on both the LAN and the WAN sides of the WAE
inline appliance.
Figure 5-3 through Figure 5-5 show which cables to use for the WAE LAN
and WAN connections between Fast Ethernet ports.
