The ATX Switch Chassis View

The Device Menu

From the Device Menu at the Chassis View window menu bar, you can access the following selections:

•Device Type..., which displays a window containing a description of the device being modeled.

•System Group..., which allows you to manage the ATX Switch via SNMP MIB_II. Refer to the Generic SNMP User’s Guide for further information.

•I/F Summary, which lets you view statistics (displayed both graphically and numerically) for the traffic processed by each network interface on your ATX.

•Bridge Status..., which opens a window that provides an overview of bridging information for each port, and allows you to access all other bridge-related options. Refer to the Bridging Chapter in the Tools Guide, for more information.

•Find Source Address..., which opens a window that allows you to search the 802.1d Filtering Database of the ATX Switch to determine which bridging interface a specified MAC address is communicating through. If the MAC address is detected as communicating through the switch, the port display will flash to indicate the bridge interface of interest. This is described in Using the Find Source Address Feature, page 2-23.

•Exit, which closes the ATX Switch Chassis View window.

The Port Status Menu

The Port Status menu allows you to select the status information that will be displayed in the port text boxes in the Chassis View window:

•Status allows you to select one of three status type displays: Bridge, Admin, or Operator.

•Load will display the portion of network load processed per polling interval by each interface as a percentage of the theoretical maximum load (10 or 100 Mbits/sec).

•Errors allows you to display the number of errors detected per polling interval by each interface as a percentage of the total number of valid packets processed by the interface.

•I/F Mapping will display the interface (if) index associated with each port your ATX switch.

•I/F Speed will display the speed (10 or 100 Mbits/sec for Ethernet and Fast Ethernet ports, 4 or 16 Mbits/sec for Token Ring ports) of the network segment attached to each port. The speed of the network management port will be displayed in Kbits/sec.

•I/F Type will display the port type of each port in the ATX Chassis, e.g., Eth (ethernet-csmacd), TR (token ring), or FDDI.
