3Com 6416SW Network Card User Manual


 
The SNMP ATM agent is a function of the Control program in the 6416SW module and
implements the ATM MIB defined in the V3.0 UNI Specification of the ATM Forum.
The AToMIB is defined by the IETF and by the 3Com extensions. It can be driven by
SNMP managers, such as IBM NetView for AIX . The 3Com ATM management
application, Transcend ONcore ATM Campus Manager, can be used by a LAN
administrator to better tune the system.
Both PVCs and SVCs are supported. The signaling is upwardly compatible with the
ATM Forum V3.0 and V3.1 UNI. Control messages are encapsulated in the SAAL
Adaptation Layer.
The ILMI (ATM Forum V3.0) is fully supported. End-systems can register their local
address to the ONcore hub and receive notification of their network address. ILMI
messages are SNMP-formatted and conveyed using the AAL5 Adaptation layer.
