Fdm Management Information Bases; Proper Modeling Of The Fdm - Cabletron Systems SPECTRUM FDM Manual

FDM Management Information Bases

FDM Management Information Bases
SPECTRUM management of an FDM is based on the following Management
Information Bases (MIBs) which come as a part of the software module for the
model type:
• Internet MIB-II (RFC 1213)
• FDDI MIB (RFC 1285)
• IETF Bridge MIB (RFC 1286)
• CTSMTMIB - Cabletron Systems Enterprise-Specific MIB
• Cabletron Systems Common-MIB (not fully implemented)
• Backplane Protocol MIB

Proper Modeling of the FDM

You create the FDM model to represent the physical FDM device bridging
between two networks. Figure 1-2 shows a representative modeling of the
FDM in SPECTRUM. Chapter 2, Modeling the FDM, explains the proper
modeling process.
