6H122-08 Overview
6H122-08 User’s Guide 1-5
1.3.3 Full Duplex Switched Ethernet (FDSE)
Each switched Fast Ethernet port on the 6H122-08 supports 10/100 Mbps
operation and can be configured to operate in Full Duplex Switched
Ethernet (FDSE) mode. FDSE allows each Fast Ethernet port to provide
up to 200 Mbps of bandwidth.
1.3.4 Management
Management of the 6H122-08 module and 6C105 chassis and any
optional equipment is accomplished using Local Management tools or
remote SNMP management stations. Local Management is accessible
through the RS232 COM port on the front panel using a local VT100
terminal, or a remote VT100 terminal via a modem connection, and
in-band via a Telnet connection. In-band remote management is possible
through any SNMP compliant Network Management Software.
1.3.5 Switching Options
The 6H122-08 provides 802.1D switching, 802.1Q switching, or
SecureFast Switching Virtual Network Services between all of the front
panel interfaces including optional Fast Ethernet Interface Modules.
SecureFast switching and 802.1Q switching allow for future migration to
Virtual Network technologies without requiring the replacement of
existing equipment.
1.3.6 Standards Compatibility
The 6H122-08 is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3u standard. The
optional Fast Ethernet Interface Modules are fully compliant with the
IEEE 802.3u standard. The 6H122-08 provides IEEE 802.1D Spanning
Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability of the
network and protect against “loop” conditions. The 6H122-08 supports a
wide variety of industry standard MIBs including RFC 1213 (MIB II),
RFC 1757 (RMON), RFC 1493 (Bridge MIB) and RFC 1354 (FIB MIB).
A full suite of Cabletron Systems Enterprise MIBs provide a wide array
of statistical information to enhance troubleshooting.
