RingView Modeling
Managed Application Model Types
The RingView Modeling Process RingView for FDDI
2-8 User’s Guide
NOTE
RingView-created models of the types described above are represented in
Topology views by icons that are labeled DAS, DAC, SAS, or SAC to indicate
the connectivity and function of the modeled node (dual-attached station,
dual-attached concentrator, single-attached station, or single-attached
concentrator). Although you can’t visually determine the exact model type
represented by one of these icons in every case, the label at the top of the icon
does indicate whether the icon represents a GenFDDIMac_NM model, in
which case the label will show the MAC address of the modeled node. For
GenFDDIMac_I and GenFDDIMac_II models, the label will show the last two
octets of the IP address and the SMT.MAC index. In any case, the banner of
the Information view for any of these models will identify the precise model
type.
Note also that DAS or DAC icons representing devices that are “dual homed”
(i.e., attached to one concentrator via the A port and a different concentrator
via the B port) will also be labeled “DH” to indicate this configuration. See
Chapter 3 for examples of how these icons are used in FDDI LAN Topology
views.
