Cabletron Systems TRMMIM manual Checking Station Status, Link State Time, Insertion Trap

Using the TRMMIM Hub View

Link State Time

The time, in hours, minutes, and seconds, since the last Link State change.

Speed Fault

Indicates whether a ring speed fault has been detected at the selected station port. Possible returned values are Fault Detected or No Fault Detected.

Note that if your hardware does not support this feature, this field will be grayed out.

Insertion Trap

This configurable field indicates whether insertion (link) traps are enabled or disabled for the station port. Insertion traps are generated by the TRMMIM when a station inserts into the ring (i.e., the port status on the chassis changes from ENB to INS) or removes itself from the ring (the port status changes from INS to ENB). Note that your management system will only receive traps if your management station’s IP address has been entered in the TRMMIM’s trap table. Refer to the SPMA Tools Guide for more information on the trap table.

NOTE

SPMA does not accept the trap messages; that task is left to your network management system. (See the appropriate network management system documentation for details about viewing trap messages.) When this utility is used in stand-alone mode, traps will either be ignored when they return to the workstation from which you are running SPMA for the TRMMIM, or they will turn up at another management workstation which has been configured to accept traps. Note also that, regardless of the configuration performed using this utility, NO traps will be sent by the TRMMIM unless its trap table has been properly configured; see the TRMMIM hardware manual and/or the Trap Table chapter in the SPMA Tools Guide for more information.

By default, these traps are disabled to reduce the amount of management activity on your network.

To Enable/Disable the Insertion Traps:

1.Click mouse button 1 on the Enable or Disable option, as desired. Insertion traps will either be activated or deactivated accordingly.

Checking Station Status

You can open a Station Status window for any station inserted into the ring. A Station Status window provides information about the station inserted into a station port interface on the MMAC hub. Note that if there is no station attached to the monitored port, no information will display.

To open the Station Status window:

1.Click mouse button 3 in the station Port Status box to display the Station Port menu.
