FDDI Management
SMT/MAC Configuration
The SMT (Station Management)/MAC (Media Access Control) Configuration window displays information about the configuration of each SMT entity present in the hub, the operating state of the ring to which that entity is attached, the physical state of the A and B ports on each module with respect to their MAC entity, and parameters relating to ring initialization.
To open the SMT/MAC Configuration window (Figure
from the Hub View:
1.Click either mouse button on any Module Index or Module Type text box to display the Module Menu (remember, this menu is the same for all application display modes).
2.Drag down to FDDI Utilities, then across to select SMT/MAC Configuration.
from the command line (stand-alone mode):
1.From the appropriate directory type:
spmarun fddicnfg <IP Address> <community name>
NOTES |
The spmarun script invoked first in the above command temporarily sets the environment variables SPMA needs to operate; be sure to use this command any time you launch an application from the command line. This script is automatically invoked when you launch an application from within the Hub View.
A community name with Read access is sufficient to view SMT/MAC configuration.
If there is a hostname mapped to your 7C0x’s IP address, you can use <hostname> in place of <IP address> to launch this application. Please note, however, that the hostname is not the same as the device name which can be assigned via Local Management and/or SPMA; you cannot use the device name in place of the IP address.
