Using the SEHI100TX Hub View
Navigating through the Hub View, monitoring hub performance; managing the hub
The heart of SPECTRUM Portable Management Applications (SPMA) for the
SEHI100TX is the Hub View, a graphical interface that gives you access to many of
the functions that provide control over the device.

Using the Hub View

There are two ways to open the Hub View: if you are working within a network
management system, you can select the Hub View option from the icon menu;
speciÞc directions for creating a SEHI100TX icon and accessing the icon menu can
be found in the appropriate Installing and Using SPECTRUM for... guide. If you
are running the SEHI100TX module in a stand-alone mode, type the following at
the command line:
spmarun hubstack <IP address> <community name>
The community name you use to start the module must have at least Read access;
for full management functionality, you should use a community name that
provides Read/Write or Superuser access. For more information on community
names, consult the appropriate Installing and Using SPECTRUM for... guide,
and/or the Community Names chapter in the SPMA Tools Guide.
NOTE
The spmarun script invoked Þrst 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 the icon menu or from within the Hub View.
If there is a hostname mapped to your SEHI100TXÕs IP address, you can use <hostname>
in place of <IP address> to launch the Hub View. 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.
