The management configuration process is broken down into two logical steps. First the SNMP agent (the FRM220-NMC card itself) must be configured with an IP address, subnet mask and gateway IP. Second, the agent must be told who the network manager is, ie. the management workstation's IP address. Included in the second step are the community string settings and IP address to send the unsolicited trap messages (alarm messages).

Appendix A Appendix A. FRM220 Cards Options A.0 Introduction The FRM220 In-Band Managed Media Converter Chassis is designed to accept a variety of optical to electrical or optical to optical converter cards. As cards are added, this section will be updated with the relevant information for the new cards.
Page 38
Appendix A Operation Modes The default operational mode for the FRM220-10/100i is 'switch mode'. When the MC works in 'switch mode' mode, it does not begin to forward a packet to a destination port until after the entire packet is received. The latency therefore depends on the packet length. The maximum packet length supported is up to 2046 bytes in this mode.

Appendix A Counters There are counters for OAM packets and counters for RMON data bytes. They can be viewed under the 'Counter' screens. The OAM counters are available for each fiber port. In this example the Fiber 2 channel is not connected, so there are no received packets.
Appendix A Modern optical SFP transceivers support digital diagnostics monitoring (DDM) functions according to the industry-standard SFF-8472. This optional feature in SFP is also known as digital optical monitoring (DOM) and gives the end user the ability to monitor real-time parameters of the SFP, such as optical output power, optical input power, temperature, etc.
Appendix A A.4 FRM220-Serial In-band Managed Datacom Fiber Media Converter (to be announced) The FRM-Serial is a serial fiber media converter that supports RS-232, RS-485 and RS-423 conversion to fiber media. Other features include the ability to remove interface termination (go high-impedance), run in TTL interface mode, and the ability to supply external +5VDC to the auxiliary equipment.
Page 107
Appendix A The FRM-Serial is designed to provide two clear channels in each direction. In an RS-232 5-wire application, one channel is used for data transmission while the other may be used as a handshaking line for flow control. The connected system functionally works like that in the diagram below.

Appendix A A.5 FRM220-E1/T1 In-band Managed G.703 Fiber Media Converter (to be announced) The FRM-E1 and FRM-T1 are high-performance G.703 E1 or T1 (DS1) over fiber media converters. These converters fully support transparent transmissions of 2.048Mbps (or 1.544Mbps for T1) and completely handle clocking in point-to-point or network applications.
Page 110
Appendix A The FRM-E1 and FRM-T1 fiber media converters' transmissions are transparent to clock and data. They are designed to be placed in an existing E1 or T1 application as an extension over fiber. When connected by fiber pair, the received analog signal of each device is used to generate the transmitted optical signal. Because of their transparent nature, they can be applied where the transmissions are unframed or fractional without regard and with minimal configuration (only need to configure the proper line code).

Appendix A A.7.26 SNMP Configuration General The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is one of many protocols in the Internet Protocol (IP) suite. SNMP is the protocol recommended specifically for the exchange of management information between hosts residing on IP networks. Network management allows you to monitor and control network devices remotely using conventional computer network technology.
Page 166
Appendix A MIB Structure The MIB has an inverted tree-like structure (root over leaves), with each definition of a managed instance forming one leaf, located at the end of a branch of that tree. Each "leaf" in the MIB is reached by a unique path. By numbering the branching points, starting with the top, each leaf can be uniquely defined by a sequence of numbers.
