What Is in This Appendix
This appendix describes the procedures for modeling single and multiple
devices and workstations. Modeling these devices involves creating a switch
model at the Universe level, creating ATM and LAN or discrete LAN
conceptual network models, and configuring application and link models
within the conceptual network models.
This appendix includes the following topics:
• Read Me First
• Modeling a Single Device and Workstation on Page C-2
• Modeling Multiple Devices and Workstations on Page C-10

It is recommended that you model your network automatically using
SPECTRUM’s AutoDiscovery feature to ensure the best modeling of your
network. (See the AutoDiscovery User’s Guide for details on modeling your
network.) Before modeling your network, you must model an ATM device
“seed switch” within the network. SPECTRUM uses the seed switch as a
starting point to identify the other devices within the ATM network. Refer to
Appendix B, Discovering Your ATM Network, for information on creating a
seed switch. Once you have discovered and modeled your network devices
manually or using SPECTRUM AutoDiscovery, you must run ATM Discovery.
Refer to ATM Switch Discovery Process for instructions on running ATM
Discovery from the command line.
If you choose to model your network manually, use the procedures described in
this appendix.
