Manual Modeling
Summary
Modeling the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis
manually in SPECTRUM involves modeling one of
the modules contained within the chassis,
locating the SmartSwitch 9000 Location icon in
the Lost and Found View, creating a Room
Location View and copying the SmartSwitch 9000
Location icon to the Room Location View. From
the SmartSwitch 9000 Location View icon you
can access the views available for the
SmartSwitch 9000 Chassis.
Modeling the modules contained in the
SmartSwitch 9000 can be done using
AutoDiscovery (refer to the AutoDiscovery
User’s Guide) or manually as described in this
chapter.
The SmartSwitch 9000 is managed through the
icons and views that represent the modules it
contains, the Flexible Network Buses (FNB1 and
FNB2), the Internal Network Bus (INB), the
Environmental Module (EM), and the front panel
interfaces.
