Cabletron Systems Ethernet Hubs manual Model Configuration

Configuration View Description

NOTE

Model Configuration

SPECTRUM uses the poll time and logging ratio attributes to determine how often it will poll the device and re-read the configuration. The product of these two attributes is the time frame used for polling. Resetting either of these attributes to zero will disable polling. The default is 10 minutes.

Model Configuration

This area of the Configuration View provides the following information:

Model Name

The user-defined or default name of the model.

Network Address

The network IP address (e.g., 132.177.118.24).

Community Name

The Community Name that has been assigned locally to the hub.

Security String

The assigned security string for the device. (Refer to the SPECTRUM

Administrator’s Reference for information on setting up security in

SPECTRUM.)

Polling Interval

The time, in seconds, between SpectroSERVER polls of the network for the hub model.

Poll Log Ratio

The number of SpectroSERVER polls of a device that occur prior to logging the poll results in the database.

Max Pull Boards

The maximum number of board models allowed in the pulled board list.

Polling Status

This button allows you to disable SpectroSERVER polls of a device by setting Polling Status to False. This button is useful in disabling rollup conditions for minor network events such as workstation power-downs. This button will also set all of the models collected by this hub to false. If set to true, models collected by this hub will be set to true.

Monitor Precedence

The monitor precedence value associated with the device. You must explicitly reset this value to a higher value than that of the existing monitoring point to designate this device as the monitoring point.
