| 52812 | 2002-06-06 22:02:00 | This is a really small question, but... Could someone please advise me whether it is safe to connect and/or disconnect ethernet cables from components in a LAN without first shutting down the whole LAN? Or even shutting down any individual components in a LAN to/from which cables are being connected or disconnected? Hope that makes sense! Thanks John |
