Introduction This section introduces the SPECTRUM Device Management documentation for the SmartSwitch 2000 Modules. This introduction contains the following topics: • Purpose and Scope SPECTRUM functionality and navigation techniques, refer to the topics listed under Required Reading.
Introduction Supported Devices Supported Devices All five devices offer RMON, port redirection, broadcast suppression, and full duplex support on all interfaces, with support for IEEE AutoNegotiation on the 100Base-TX ports. The 8H02-16, 2E42-27, 2E42-27R, 2E43-27, and 2E43-27R SmartSwitch Modules are all high performance Ethernet switching devices that provide Fast Ethernet uplinks.
Introduction The SPECTRUM Model The Device icons contain double-click zones and provide access to Icon Subviews menus that let you perform device management activities such as those listed in Tasks on Page 9. As Figure 1 (Page 7) shows, the appearance of the Device icons varies slightly depending on the kind of view it appears in.
Introduction The SPECTRUM Model The rest of this document covering management module SM-CSI1068/80/87 is organized as follows: • Tasks (Page 9) • Device Views (Page 10) • Device Topology View (Page 20) • Application Views (Page 21) • Performance Views (Page 35) • Configuration Views (Page 36) • Model Information View (Page 43).
Tasks This section contains an alphabetical list of device management tasks, with each task providing one or more links to views that let you perform the task.
Device Views This section describes the following Device views and subviews available for the SmartSwitch Modules. Interface Device View Figure 2: This section describes the Interface icons and the Interface Options panel displayed in the Interface Device view. This view provides dynamic configuration and performance information for each interface on the device. If the configuration changes, SPECTRUM modifies the Device view after the next polling cycle to reflect the new configuration.
Device Views Interface Icon Interface Icon Interface Icon Subviews Menu These icons represent the interfaces or ports of the device. The icons identify the type of interface or port (e.g., Ethernet) and provide statistical information. Figure 3 shows an example of an Interface icon, its Icon Subviews menu, and its labels/double-click zones.

Device Views Chassis Device View Interface Options Panel Chassis Device View This area of the Interface Device view (Figure 2) allows you to modify the presentation of a highlighted icon. Double-click a non-text area of this panel to open the Gauge Control Panel view described later in this chapter. The Interface Options panel provides the information described below. This view uses a Chassis Device icon to provide a logical representation of the device chassis and its interfaces or ports.
Device Views Chassis Device View Chassis Device Icon Device Type Label This icon is a logical representation of the physical device and its front panel interfaces or ports. This section describes the information available from the Chassis Device icon. Figure 5 shows an example of the Chassis Device icon for the 2E42-27R device. This label identifies the type of device. (Refer to Figure 5.) Double-click this area to open the Device Configuration view described in Configuration Views.

Device Topology View This section describes the Device Topology view available for models of the SmartSwitch devices. Figure 7: Access: From the Icon Subviews menu for the Device icon, select Device Topology. The Device Topology view (Figure 7) shows the connections between a modeled device and other network entities. The lower panel of the view uses Interface icons to represent the device’s serial, network, and I/O ports.
Application Views This section describes the Application view and the associated application-specific subviews available for models of SmartSwitch 2000 devices in SPECTRUM. Figure 8: Access: From the Icon Subviews menu for the Device icon, select Application.
Application Views Supported Applications Supported Applications SPECTRUM’s applications can be grouped within two general categories as follows: Common Applications For the most part, these applications represent the non proprietary MIBs supported by your device. Listed below (beneath the title of the SPECTRUM document that describes them) are some of the common applications currently supported by SPECTRUM.
Application Views - Supported Applications Device-Specific MIBs Frame Relay Token Ring Ethernet Fast Ethernet rfc1317App rfc1285App rfc1315App 802.11App SONET SPECTRUM imports the following device-level proprietary MIBs into its database: • ctifremap-2-mib • fastethernet-mib • ctatm-mib These MIBs can be used in conjunction with SPECTRUM’s optional customization products (referred to as the Level I Tool Kits) to create application models and views that display the condition of selected MIB objects.
Application Views 802_1Q_VLAN Application Access: From the Icon Subviews menu for the 802_1Q_VLAN Application view, select VLAN Table. Double-clicking on any entry in this table displays the VLAN Table Details View (Page 24) described later in this section. This view provides the following information. VID VLAN identification number. VLAN Name Name of the selected VLAN. VLAN Status Status of the selected VLAN. VLAN Table Details View Access: Double-click any entry in the VLAN Table view.
Application Views Fast Ethernet Application Destination The interface that will see all packets redirected from Source Port. Number Entries The number of active entries in the Interface Remap Table. Physical Errors Enable Physical error remapping can be Enabled, Disabled, or Unsupported. Unsupported indicates that the device is incapable of remapping physical errors. Max Number Entries The maximum number of entries allowed in the Interface Remap Table. Sort Used to sort the Interface Remap Table.
Application Views Fast Ethernet Application current operational modes, their values, and their descriptions. Port Group The port group number to which this Fast Ethernet information applies. Table 10: Port The physical port number to which this Fast Ethernet information applies. Current Operational Mode Values and Descriptions Operational Mode Operational Mode The current operational mode of this port.
Application Views Fast Ethernet Application Negotiation. When only one link partner supports Auto-Negotiation, the mode defaults to half duplex. Both local and remote management for the SmartSwitch Module provide the ability to disable Auto-Negotiation if desired. A port that does not support Auto-Negotiation will be read as “other” (1). Received Technology These selections indicate the advertised ability of the remote hardware or link partner. These modes are read-only.

Last Change The value of MIB II’s sysUpTime object at the time this VCL entered its current operational state. If the current state was entered prior to the last reinitialization of the agent, then this object contains a zero value.
Performance Views This section introduces the Performance view. For details concerning this view, refer to the SPECTRUM Views documentation Performance views display performance statistics in terms of a set of transmission attributes, e.g., cell rates, frame rates, % error, etc. A typical view is shown in Figure 9. The instantaneous condition of each transmission attribute is recorded in a graph. The statistical information for each attribute is presented in the adjacent table.
Configuration Views This section describes the Configuration views available for the SmartSwitch Modules. These views display network configuration and operating information for the device and its interfaces.
