Cabletron Systems 6H122-16 manual Port Redirect Function Screen, Chassis Fan Status Read-Only

Chapter 5: Local Management

Chassis Fan Status (Read-Only)

Displays the current status of the 6C105 fan tray. This field will read either “Normal” (fan tray is operating properly), “Fault” (fan tray is defective), or “Not Installed” (no fan tray installed-not a valid operating mode, see caution).

Operating a chassis without a fan tray installed may cause the

!chassis or installed modules to overheat and become a fire

CAUTION	hazard. Cabletron Systems does not recommend operation of
	a chassis without a fully functioning fan tray unit.

5.11PORT REDIRECT FUNCTION SCREEN

NOTE

The Port Redirect Function screen may not be available depending on the operational mode that has been set for the chassis. Refer to your Release Notes to see what operational modes support the Port Redirect Function. Refer to Section 5.7.7, Setting the Operational Mode, for instructions

on configuring the operational mode of all the modules installed in the chassis.

The Port Redirect Function screen, Figure 5-14, allows the user to set each one of the modules in the chassis (1 through 5), and the ports of the corresponding module installed, as a source or destination port. A port can be set to have one or more destination ports and chassis module slot numbers. For example, port 1 in module (slot) 1 can be set as a source port with three destinations, ports 2, 3, and 4 in module (slot) 3. Traffic from port 1 in module 1 is then automatically redirected to ports 2, 3, and 4 in module 3. Port 1 in module 1 can also serve as a destination port for other ports and modules. The port redirect function is extremely useful for troubleshooting purposes, as it allows traffic to be sent to a particular port(s) where, with the use of an analyzer or RMON probe, all current traffic from the source port(s) can be examined.

NOTES

The module number corresponds to the slot number in which the module resides in the 6C105 chassis (1 through 5).

Although traffic from the source port (including, if desired, errored frames) is sent to the destination port, normal switching is still performed for all frames on the source port.
