MONITORING AND MANAGING

YOUR ELS100-16TX

Monitoring the ELS100-16TX consists of collecting and analyzing statistics and system status information.

You can use the Select button on the front panel of the ELS100- 16TX to monitor segment status on any of the Ethernet ports. Refer to Section 2.1 for a description of the segment status options.

Basic management of the ELS100-16TX consists of disabling or enabling Ethernet ports, changing subnet masks, setting the community name for the ELS100-16TX, and changing the baud rate for your Local Console Manager (LCM) connection.

4.1 ELS100-16TX MANAGEMENT TOOLS

LCM is a command-line interface built into the ELS100-16TX that enables you to monitor and manage the ELS100-16TX through the out-of-band RS232C connection attached to any non-intelligent terminal. You can also use one of the following Cabletron Systems Network Management Stations (NMSs), or a standard SNMP- based NMS to manage the ELS100-16TX:

•SPECTRUM

•SPMA

•SPEL

•Any SNMP-based NMS

4.2 ELS100-16TX STATISTICS

The ELS100-16TX gathers statistics that can help you build a comprehensive proﬁle of the network trafﬁc ﬂow between each Local Area Network (LAN) you are connecting, as well as the network trafﬁc ﬂow between each Ethernet port on the ELS100- 16TX.
