10.6 Monitoring Functions Supported In 8260

As mentioned in Chapter 4, ª8260 Distributed Management Architectureº on page 35, the DMM uses the facilities provided by the T-MAC and E-MAC daughter cards to interface to the backplane segments. This allows DMM to use the services of T-MAC and E-MAC to monitor the network segments to which the T-MAC or E-MAC is assigned and collect various statistical information about the segment and the stations attached to these segments.

To monitor each backplane or isolated segment, a T-MAC (for token-ring segments) or E-MAC (for Ethernet segments) is required. You can use the
