Connections
Introduction The NMS allows you to view two types of connections and to view the status of
each connection. The two types of connections that you can administer are: static
or dynamic. The status of each of these connections reflects the activity of that
connection.
From the NMS, you can connect managed nodes to Proxy Agents, disconnect
managed nodes from Proxy Agents, and verify the status of a connection.
This section contains:
• Graphical depictions of connections as they appear on network submaps
• Descriptions that contrast the differences between static and dynamic
connections
• Descriptions of the six connection status
• Procedures to establish connections
• Procedures to drop connections
• Methods to verify connection status
