SET MODULE INTERFACE
SET MODULE
INTERFACE
Use the SET MODULE INTERFACE command to enable or disable the network
interface on Network Monitor Cards.
The A-ENMC has two network interfaces.
Before you enable an interface:
■
Assign the Network Monitor Card (or A-ENMC interface) to a network
■
Set IP parameters for the network it is assigned to (using SET IP commands)
This command allows you to set certain NMCs to be active, while others are set
explicitly to standby mode.
This option is not available when the TR-NMC is installed on a module-switched
Token Ring module. If you want an NMC to act as a standby for a module
installed on a module-switched module, you must set the standby module
(residing on another host card) to the same network.
Format
Example 1
The following command enables the ENMC in subslot 4 of the DMM-EC in
slot 15:
CB5000> set module 15.4 interface enable
Interface Mode set to ENABLED.
Example 2
The following command enables slot 5, subslot 1, A-ENMC interface 2:
CB5000> set module 5.1 module_interface_2 interface enable

_n
slot.subslot Selects the NMC you want to enable, disable, or set to standby. Valid
values are hub slot 1 through 17, subslot 2 through 7.
module_interface
_n
Selects one of the two interfaces on the A-ENMC. This command
option is available only if the subslot you entered contains an
A-ENMC.
n
= 1 or 2
enable
Enables interface on the network it is assigned to.
disable
Disconnects the interface from a network.
standby
Interface assumes role of any failed (hardware failure, host module
removed) or too heavily burdened active Network Monitor Card of
the same protocol. When activated, the standby card assumes all IP
parameters, and begins to monitor statistics on the network to which
the now inactive card had been assigned. A TR-NMC in this state is
not inserted in the ring or included in ring maps.
