The Station List and Station Map

The Station List window and fields; viewing station statistics; removing a station from the ring; the Station Map; the Station Command menu; manipulating the Station Map

The Station List window conveniently allows you to view statistics and configure the stations on the currently monitored ring network.

The Station Map graphically illustrates the ring configuration in downstream neighbor order from the currently monitored MicroMMAC-T, and provides address information for individual stations inserted into the ring.

Both windows also allow you to access statistics, timer statistics, and performance graphs for each inserted ring station (including the MicroMMAC-T’s onboard management station), and also remove stations from the ring.

You can also set alarm limits for individual stations through the Station List and Station Map windows.

The Station List Window

At the MicroMMAC-T Station List window (Figure 5-1), you can view each station on the ring network supported by the MicroMMAC-T (including stations physically attached to another device that are on the ring) in ring order starting from the MicroMMAC-T’s management station. Using this window, you can view statistics for each station on the monitored ring, as well as temporarily remove a station port from the ring network, and set alarm limits for individual stations.

To access the Station List window, select Station List... from the Network menu on the MicroMMAC-T Chassis View window.
