The 9A128-01 Module View

Information displayed in the Module View window; the Chassis Manager window; hub management functions

The 9A128-01 Module View window is the main screen that immediately informs you of the current configuration of your 9A128-01 via a graphical display of the two bridge ports and the FDDI A and B ports which provide connectivity to the FNB backplane. (The Module View does not currently provide a display which reflects the status of the front panel ATM ports.) The Module View window serves as a single point of access to all other 9A128-01 windows and screens, which are discussed at length in the following chapters.

To access the 9A128-01 Module View window, you can either double-click on the appropriate device icon (as illustrated in Figure 2-1, below), or use the following menu or toolbar options:

NOTE

To model your 9A128-01 ATM Access Module as an individual device, you must select Chassis Manager mode from the window that appears when you launch the icon. Refer to your Using MMAC-Plus Remote Management Guide for information on how to access the module view from the MMAC-Plus Chassis View.
