Welcome to the GatorMIM CS and GatorStar GX-M User’s Guide. We have
designed this guide to serve as a reference for using NetSight Element Manager
for the GatorMIM CS and the GatorStar GX-M.
The GatorMIM CS and GatorStar GX-M are LocalTalk to Ethernet routers—based
on Cayman Systems’ GatorBOX-CS technology—which are integrated for use in
the MMAC series of intelligent hubs.
The GatorMIM CS is a LocalTalk router module for the MMAC hub, providing
routing connectivity between LocalTalk and Ethernet topologies with AppleTalk
and DECnet routing capabilities, with no configuration required.
The GatorStar GX-M is a single module designed to plug into the MMAC hub,
providing plug-and-play routing between LocalTalk and Ethernet networks, with
no configuration required. It integrates the LocalTalk-Ethernet gateway with the
24-port LocalTalk SmartRepeater. GatorStar GX-M’s SmartRepeater technology
provides automatic detection and correction of “jabbering” on LocalTalk ports,
and determines the location of individual nodes for each port, allowing network
management and mapping programs to determine the location and traffic of
every node on your LocalTalk network.
Both the GatorStar GX-M and the GatorMIM CS support LocalTalk Statistics and
the SNMP System Group. The GatorStar also supports GatorStar Statistics. The
GatorStar GX-M can support up to 96 users; the GatorMim CS up to 32 users.
