EMME USER’S GUIDE
1.2.4 Local Management
Built into the front panel of the EMME are two RJ45 ports. The Console
port allows access to Local Management by locally connecting a DEC VT
320 terminal, or a PC using VT320 emulation software. Refer to Chapter
5, Local Management.
1.2.5 MIB Navigation
EMME firmware supports a management tool through which you
navigate through Management Information Bases (MIBs). Refer to
Chapter 6, MIB Navigator.
1.2.6 LANVIEW LEDs
The EMME incorporates Cabletron Systems’ LANVIEW Status
Monitoring and Diagnostics System. Should a problem arise, such as a
power failure or a cable fault, the LANVIEW LEDs will help you to
diagnose it. The module includes the following LANVIEW LEDs:
•
Board OK and Error LEDs for board status
•
Standby, Receive, and Collision LEDs for Ethernet Channel Status
•
On and Power LEDs for AUI Port Status
1.2.7 LANVIEW
SECURE
The EMME supports the LANVIEW
SECURE
suite of Ethernet MMAC
products. The LANVIEW
SECURE
products support both inbound data,
“Intruder Prevention,” and outbound data, “Eavesdrop Prevention.” These
products are identified by the words “LANVIEW
SECURE
” printed on the
faceplate of the product.
Intruder prevention allows locking of ports when an intruder, based on the
expected MAC address assigned to that port, is seen on that port. A trap is
then generated and sent to the Network Management station to indicate an
intruder violation. When locking is enabled, the default configuration for
intruder prevention in LANVIEW
SECURE
disables the port and sends a
trap to the management station. If the trap screen is configured
appropriately, through Local Management or setting OIDs, traps are sent
to the management station.
