VMS Service Managers
Figure 5-53 Policy Tab, Subnet
Selecting an existing application policy, as shown in figure 5-53, and then click-
ing directly on one of the parameters allows you to modify the policy for the
selected policy type. However, an existing policy cannot be removed from the
Subnet site level; an application policy can only be removed from the InBand
Manager global level.
Advanced modem settings for a switch type can be configured by clicking on
the Modem button and modifying the Modem Extra parameters. These settings
temporarily override the home state settings, and only apply when this switch
occurs.
If the Modem button is inactive (greyed-out), it will be necessary to return to the
In Band tab and open the Select Modem dialog (figure 5-51), then select the
desired modem. The Modem button in the Policy tab will now be active.
Distribution Lists Tab
Distribution Lists are used to define the target subnets for point-to-multipoint
distribution on an inband service connection whenever an upstream switch to a
specific destination IP address occurs, such as to a multicast address.
Distribution lists are created at the global system level (InBand Manager), but
can be either modified or disabled here at the site level to accommodate specific
site requirements.
Opening the Distribution Lists tab for a subnet will display the global lists that
were created using InBand Manager, as shown in figure 5-54.
