Monitoring the Network from the Console Statistics Menu SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R Token Ring Switches Installation and User Guide
7. Monitoring the Network from the
Console Statistics Menu
This chapter explains how to monitor the SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R
through a directly connected VT100 console or through a VT100 telnet session. To
use SNMP (in-band, through the network management), see Chapter 8,
“Monitoring the Network with SNMP”.
The information presented on the Statistic screens in this chapter is typically used
for monitoring purposes only. This information is usually the result of input data
from the configuration menus (see Chapter 6, “Switch Configuration”). The
specifications presented on the Statistic screens normally can not be modified.
Information within the statistics menus are updated (screens are refreshed) every
five seconds.
For information on how to use the console interface, see “General Guidelines” on
page 76 and “Navigating within the Menus” on page 77 in Chapter 6, “Switch
Configuration”.
➽ Note:
The SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R allows LAN Network Manager
LLC frames to flow through the switch. Therefore, communication between LAN
Network Manager and existing source route bridges and controlled access units is
maintained. However, some error reporting functions and ring map functions might
be lost for the rings attached to the SmartStack STS16-20D/STS16-20R.
