The EMM-E6 allows the option of using Cabletron Distributed LAN Monitor (DLM) software to locally poll and monitor any Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) or Internet Protocol (IP) device. The EMM-E6 itself tallies the polling results and can be configured to contact a management station when a predetermined threshold is exceeded. This allows the EMM-E6 to request management attention when it is required, reducing management polling over the network.
Local Communication Ports
The EMM-E6 provides two RJ45 serial ports on its front panel. The COM 1 port allows a serial management connection to an American Power Conversion Smart Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). The COM 2 port allows you to access Local Management by locally connecting a DEC VT220 or VT320 terminal, or a PC using VT emulation software.
In-Band Telnet with MIB Navigator
EMM-E6 firmware supports a management tool which allows for MIB navigation from a remote Telnet station.
Port Locking and LANVIEWSECURE Support
The EMM-E6 supports Port Locking features and Cabletron’s LANVIEWSECURE line of Media Interface Modules (MIMs). The EMM-E6 is capable of configuring and controlling LANVIEWSECURE MIMs through local or remote management. These security features can help reduce the possibility of network eavesdropping.
