Configuring Management
Processor Modules
The management processor module (
MPX
on the Omni Switch/Router) coordinates control of
the Omni Switch/Router by providing access to the User Interface (
UI
) software, maintaining
user configuration information, downloading switching module software, managing basic
bridge functions, maintaining basic routing functions, and managing the
SNMP
management
agent. Switching modules are dependent on the
MPX
for downloading software and for
receiving initialization and configuration information. In addition, the Network Management
System (
NMS
) depends on the
MPX
to send and receive
SNMP
messages for managing the
switch.
♦
Important Note
♦
All of the
UI
commands described in this chapter also
work with the Omni Switch/Router
MPX
.
The Omni Switch/Router also support two
MPXs
with one acting as the primary and with one
acting as the secondary. If the primary
MPX
fails, the secondary
MPX
can take over automati-
cally. Operating with redundant
MPXs
can also help avoid network downtime.
♦
Note
♦
When you have two
MPX
s in one chassis, they must be
installed in slots 1 and 2, and only one will be active.
The primary
MPX
executes all the commands and, when needed, sends requests to the
secondary
MPX
. The secondary
MPX
continuously monitors the primary
MPX
. For more infor-
mation on
MPXs
, see Chapter 2, “The Omni Switch/Router
MPX
.”
The
UI
provides commands to configure the serial port, to configure the Ethernet manage-
ment port, and a set of commands to monitor and configure primary and secondary
MPXs
.
These commands are described in the pages that follow.
