Modeling
This section describes how to manually model a 6C105 chassis and a SmartSwitch 6000 module installed in the
chassis and place the resulting device icons in their proper SPECTRUM views.
Introduction
The following topics are covered in this section:
• AutoDiscovery vs. Manual Modeling (page 61)
• Manual Modeling Overview (page 62)
• Preparation for Modeling (page 63)
• Modeling Using the Chassis IP (page 63)
• Positioning the Chassis Device Icon (page 66)
AutoDiscovery vs. Manual
Modeling
SPECTRUM’s AutoDiscovery is recommended if
you are modeling a network for the first time or
want to discover and model a network segment
after making changes to it.
AutoDiscovery is not recommended for use when
the SmartSwitch 6000 is in Mixed Management
mode, see Management Modes (page 9).
Autodiscovery involves manually modeling a seed
router, bridge, or switch (if such a model does
exist) and then running AutoDiscovery one or
more times to complete the network model. You
then refine your autodiscovered network model to
improve management capabilities.
The manual modeling procedures described in
this section should be used when making minor
changes to the network. This includes such
actions as placing an already discovered module
in Mixed Management mode or adding a new
chassis or module to the network.

AutoDiscovery and refining your
network model.
