The Administration State button lets you select the security administration
state for the TRBMIM. When the readout on this button designates the ring
as being in the EnabledWithAlarms state, SPECTRUM will generate an
alarm upon insertion of an illegal station into the ring. When the indication is
EnabledWithRemoveAndAlarm, SPECTRUM generates an alarm and also
removes the illegal station from the ring. Finally, selecting the Disabled state
turns off security for the TRBMIM.
A blocked off area below the Administration State control button contains a
table that identiÞes the Interface designation and the Allowed Station
Address value for all stations allowed on the ring. The station that is the
active monitor for the ring is indicated by an asterisk (*) beside the address.
Double-clicking on any table line entry in the table opens the Modify Allowed
Station List dialog box, described in Modify Allowed Station List Dialog Box,
starting on page 3-22.
The blocked-off table area contains the following seven push-buttons:
The Update button updates the contents of the Station Address Table.
The MAC/Canonical button toggles the station address display format
between MAC (Physical) and Canonical (Ethernet) forms. The readout on
this button always designates the alternate state (that is, the one that is not
currently selected, but which will become selected if you click on the button).
The Set/Clear Filter button lets you set a Þlter affecting the interfaces/
stations displayed in the table. The readout on this button always designates
the alternate state (that is, the one that is not currently selected, but which
will become selected if you click on the button). You select an attribute to Þlter
against by clicking one of the column-heading buttons (that is, Interface or
Allowed Station Address).
The Sort Up/Sort Down/On-Sort button lets you sort the interfaces or
station addresses displayed in the table. You select an attribute to sort on by
clicking one of the column-heading buttons (that is, Interface or Allowed
Station Address). When you click on this button, a pop-up menu appears,
letting you select the desired setting.
The Interface button, located directly above the Interface column in the
displayed table and constituting its label, provides a list of the available
