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 types 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).

Should the EtherTalk 2.0 icon appear, double-click on it and see
if an Internet router is found. If one is found, a panel appears
