Distributed Chassis Management
1.13 DISTRIBUTED CHASSIS MANAGEMENT
From a management perspective, the DLM6C-AA chassis can be viewed
as a single entity with a single IP address. Its systems management
functions are distributed to all modules. The chassis can be managed
using a single IP address, or the modules can be managed separately by
individual IP addresses. When using a single IP address, system wide
settings can be done from the chassis menu in Local Management, while
module settings are done by selecting the specific module to be modified
and changing the settings for that module.
1.14 OPTIONAL HSIMs AND VHSIMs
The DLE52-MA provides a slot for an optional High Speed Interface
Module (HSIM) or Very High Speed Interface Module (VHSIM) for
additional connectivity to various networking technologies. Any
exceptions to the HSIMs and VHSIMs that operate in the DLE52-MA are
listed in the Release Notes shipped with the DLE52-MA.
1.15 STANDARDS COMPATIBILITY
The DLE02-MA and the DLE52-MA are fully compliant with the IEEE
802.3, 802.3x, 802.3u, prestandard 802.1Q, and prestandard 802.1p
standards. The DLE02-MA and the DLE52-MA provide IEEE 802.1D
Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability
of the network and protect against "loop" conditions. The DLE02-MA
and the DLE52-MA support a wide variety of industry standard MIBs
including RFC 1213 (MIB II), RFC 1757 (RMON), RFC 1493 (Bridge
MIB), RFC 1354 (FIB MIB), and RFC 1190 (Path MTU Discovery). A
full suite of MIBs, available from Cabletron Systems, provide a wide
array of statistical information to enhance troubleshooting.
For information about how to extract and compile individual MIBs,
contact your DIGITAL representative.
1.16 LANVIEW DIAGNOSTIC LEDs
LANVIEW diagnostic LEDs serve as an important troubleshooting aid by
providing an easy way to observe the status of individual ports and overall
network operations.
