Network processor

Advertisement

The Model 140 processes data from the disk drives,
diskettes, and communication connections. It
contains a 32-bit processor, network adapters,
16 MB of RAM, and media storage devices. The
hardware is controlled by the IBM Multiprotocol
Network Program, program number 5648-016.
The Model 140 allows up to 4 communication
adapters to be installed and has two 160-MB disk
drives. Internal hardware controls a 3.5-inch
diskette drive, 2 serial ports, and the disk drives.
The Model 140 does not have a keyboard or display
screen. You can attach an ASCII terminal to the
Model 140 to use the Multiprotocol Network
Program System Manager functions, or you can use
a workstation attached to an Internet Protocol (IP)
network. The front operator panel of the Model 140
contains a 3-digit display, a Key Lock/Reset Button
Assembly, and a 3.5-inch diskette drive.
The Multiprotocol Network Program is initially
configured by first running the Multiprotocol
Network Program Configuration Program on an IBM
Personal System/2 (PS/2) or RISC System/6000
workstation and then transporting the configuration
file to the Model 140 on a 3.5-inch diskette.
Subsequent configuration updates can be applied
from a terminal or a RISC System/6000 workstation
attached to the IP network.
Remote monitoring and control can be performed
by communications with a Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) network manager
station, such as the IBM NetView/6000.
