Media Interface Modules
By using an FDMMIM, FDMMIM-04, FDMMIM-24, or FDMMIM-30
you can manage adjacent FDCMIMs through FDMMIM Local
Management, the out-of-band management facility resident on the
FDMMIM and FDMMIM-04 modules. You can also manage FDCMIMs
with Cabletron Systems SNMP management tools such as
SPECTRUM
®
or Remote LANVIEW/Windows
®
.
FDCMIMs also provide the flexibility of forming a single ring stand-
alone FDDI concentrator. Since FDCMIMs connect through the
MMAC backplane through an isolated FDDI bus, you can link several
modules, and their subsequent stations, together without the need for
a bridge or repeater.
