Welcome to the Cabletron Systems Using MMAC-Plus¨ Remote Management

Guide. We have designed this manual to serve as a simple reference tool for

remotely managing a Cabletron Systems MMAC-Plus Chassis with an installed

9C300-1 Environmental Modulesª and MMAC-Plus Client Modules (including

the 9E132 and 9E133 series Ethernet MicroLAN Moduleª, the 9T122 Series Token

Ring MicroLAN Moduleª, the 9F120 series FDDI Concentrator Moduleª, and

the 9F116 series FDDI Bridge/Router Moduleª).

The MMAC-Plus is Cabletron Systems latest generation network hub - a fourteen

slot chassis with an integrated backplane that supports LAN, WAN, SNA, and

ATM connectivity. There are four components to the backplane. Two components

are currently implemented: the Flexible Network Bus (FNB) Ñ composed of two

dual-FDDI networks that provide up to 400 Mbps of data bandwidth, and a two-

channel System Management Bus (SMB) that is used by all components to

exchange status and environmental information, issue diagnostic messages,

provide intermodule communication, and synchronize chassis management.

There are two more components to be implemented in the near future: an Internal

Network Bus (INB), designed to support packet and ATM cell transport, and a

Cell Transfer Matrix (CTM), which will enable the MMAC-Plus to act as a

backbone ATM switch.

The MMAC-Plus is equipped with an Environmental Module that controls

system cooling, environmental monitoring, and provides out-of-band

management capability. Individual client modules provide management and

connectivity options for any network media or technology. No dedicated

management module is required for the hub as a whole.

Introduction

1-2 Using This Manual

MMAC-Plus Remote Management capability for the chassis includes:

¥ A Chassis View, which allows you to see at a glance the connection status of

any installed MMAC-Plus client modules, as well as basic information about

the Environmental Module, including the status of its communication ports,

Ethernet EPIM port, and LCD read-out, and environmental conditions for the

chassis as a whole.

¥ An Environment View, which displays environmental information for the

individual client modules (including power consumption and operating

temperature), as well as fan speed and power supply management.

¥ A Backplane ConÞguration View, which shows how the installed client

modules are currently conÞgured with regard to the FNB backplane

component of the MMAC-Plus chassis, and allows you to change that

conÞguration.

¥ Access to Client Module-speciÞc management applications.

You should read this manual thoroughly to understand MMAC-Plus Remote

Management.

UsingThis Manual

This manual covers management operations directly related to the monitoring

and control of the chassis (including the conÞguration of client modules with

respect to the chassis). It also describes management functions that are shared by

most client modules, such as alarm and event monitoring.

This manual does not describe management operations that are inherent to

individual client modules. These operations are covered in separate management

module guides; refer to these guides for more information on managing an

individual module.

Chapter 1, Introduction, discusses the capabilities of Cabletron Systems MMAC-

Plus Remote Management. It also lists related user manuals.

Chapter 2, Getting Started, discusses how to initially conÞgure MMAC-Plus

Remote Management through the Chassis Setup view.

Chapter 3, MMAC-Plus Management Views, describes viewing and using the

Chassis, Environment, and Backplane ConÞg views of MMAC-Plus Management.

We assume that you have a general working knowledge of data communications

networks and their physical layer components.
