Physical Limits View
This view contains the Physical Limits Table, which describes the chassis as a
number of physical entities, each having a physical location. This table defines
the number of locations of each type that exist within the chassis.
Type
Displays the reference number of the type of location. Possible types are
module, power-supply, fan, backplane, and 5.
Limit
Displays the number of locations in this chassis that exist for a specified Type.
This is interpreted as the 'number of power supplies' or 'number of slots' etc.
Chassis Service View
This view contains the Service Table, which contains an entry for each service
offered by this device and provides a name for that service type.
Note that every entry in this table must belong to a service.
Id
Displays the index number for this service. There are several conventions
used to allocate a service Id:
• If a card forms a service by itself the service id is the same as the slot
position of that card within the rack.
• If a service is constructed using one of the backplane 802.3 facilities, the
service id is 101, 102, or 103 for the three backplane 802.3 paths.
• If a service is a token ring fragment, the service id is 200 plus the ring
fragment id. If Ring Builder builder builds a ring from MAU cards with
ring fragment id 7, the corresponding service will be 207.
Name
This is a text string describing the service at a particular Service Index.
Service Address View
This view contains the Address Table.
A chassis contains a number of services, each implemented by one or more
cards. A number of services are'intelligent' in that they communicate with the
management station through their own communications stack. This table
allows you to determine the addresses of a particular service. The table will
only have entries for intelligent cards.
