W-8 data element definitions
AppleTalk Phase Type: There are three AppleTalk Phase
Types:
• Phase 1 (non-extended network) is a single physical
network that can support up to 254 mode addresses
(devices). There is only one network number and one zone
assigned to the network.
Phase 1 is not configured as Phase 1, but should follow the
Transition mode install procedure. This is done so that
Macintosh Transparent Printing can be enabled.
• Phase 2 (extended network) is a network in which there are
two or more network numbers assigned to a single physical
network. Each network number on an extended network is
an addressing channel that can support 253 devices and
only one zone name. Phase 2 routers can be configured to
support non-extended networks.
• Transition mode (Phase 2 Transition) is a way of
configuring a Phase 2 router so that it can function on an
Internet that includes Phase 1 routers. Since Phase 1
routers cannot recognize multiple network numbers or
multiple zones on a network, a Phase 2 router in the
transition mode is deliberately limited to addressing only 253
devices.
You can determine which EtherTalk phase type is running by
completing the following steps:
1. Select the Control panel from the Apple Menu Icon (upper
left corner of the screen on a Macintosh).
2. Double-click the Network icon.
3. The icon describes the phase type:
a. An icon showing two single opposing arrows represents
EtherTalk 1.0 (Phase 1).
b. An icon showing two double opposing arrows
represents EtherTalk 2.0 (Phase 2).
