Introduction to SPMA for the TRMMIM

•Chapter 1, Introduction, describes the TRMMIM User’s Guide and the conventions used in this and other SPMA manuals, explains where to ﬁnd information about the TRMMIM, and tells you how to contact Cabletron Systems Technical Support.

•Chapter 2, Using the TRMMIM Hub View, describes the visual display of the Hub and explains how to use the mouse within the Hub View. Also described are some basic functions available only from within the Hub View (changing the Hub View display, opening menus and windows, enabling and disabling ports, checking device and module status, and so on).

•Chapter 3, Ring Map, describes how to graphically display all stations inserted into your TRMMIM-managed Token Ring network. Using the Ring Map application, you can display stations and perform station searches according to various parameters, view and compare errors detected on the ring, conﬁgure the ring management station, set station drops or station names, view summary information about station conﬁguration and ring performance, view ring history information, and launch other SPMA Token Ring applications.

•Chapter 4, Alarm Conﬁguration, describes how to set thresholds and enable or disable alarms at the ring and station levels.

•Chapter 5, Statistics, describes how to use the statistics windows to view ring and station-speciﬁc information, including trafﬁc counts, total error counts, and error type breakdowns.

•Chapter 6, Ring Security Conﬁguration, describes how to remotely conﬁgure security for the TRMMIM. The Ring Security application allows you to control access to your TRMMIM-managed Token Ring network, and specify a security mode for stations illegally attempting to enter the ring.

•Appendix A, TRMMIM MIB Structure, lists the individual components that collectively compose the TRMMIM’s MIB.
