CHAPTER 3LOCAL MANAGEMENT

This chapter provides instructions on conﬁguring the HSIM-F6 to operate

in full duplex FDDI mode, viewing HSIM-F6 FDDI statistics, translating

speciﬁc FDDI frame types to speciﬁc Ethernet frame types and to viewing

the FDDI ring topology using Local Management.

Make sure that the following requirements have been met before

conﬁguring the HSIM-F6 through Local Management:

• At least one FPIM is installed in the HSIM-F6.

• The HSIM-F6 is installed in the host interface module or standalone

hub.

• The device is up and running.

• A Local Management terminal is properly conﬁgured and connected

to the host interface module or standalone hub in which the HSIM-F6

resides.

NOTE When installed, the HSIM-F6 provides additional Local

Management features. These features are accessed by

entering Local Management of the host interface module or

standalone hub. Refer to the host device User’s Guide to

establish a Local Management connection.

NOTE If the HSIM-F6 is being conﬁgured to operate in full duplex

mode, two FPIMs must be installed before proceeding.

To view HSIM-F6 FDDI statistics and ring topology, the

HSIM-F6 must be connected to the FDDI ring.
