The MicroMMAC-T Chassis View
The Chassis Manager Window
Like most networking devices, Cabletron's devices draw their functionality from
a collection of proprietary MIBs and IETF RFCs. In addition, Cabletron's newer
intelligent devices – like the MicroMMAC-T – organize their MIB data into a
series of "components." A MIB component is a logical grouping of MIB data, and
each group controls a defined set of objects. For example, MicroMMAC-T chassis
information is organized into its own component; network information resides in
another component. Note, too, that there is no one-to-one correspondence
between MIBs and MIB components; a single MIB component might contain
objects from several different proprietary MIBs and RFCs.
The Chassis Manager window,
MIBs and the MIB components — and, therefore, the functionality — supported
by the currently monitored device.
To view the Chassis Manager window:
1. Click on Help on the menu bar at the top of the Chassis View window.
2. Click on MIBs Supported.
MIB Components are listed here;
remember, there's no one-to-one
correspondence between MIBs
and MIB Components
The MIBs which provide the
MicroMMAC-T's functionality —
both proprietary MIBs and IETF
RFCs — are listed here
Viewing Hardware Types
In addition to the graphical displays described above, a menu option available at
the device-level provides specific information about the physical characteristics of
the MicroMMAC-T module.
