LAN Protocols
like which have management agents responsible for performing the functions
requested by the network management stations. SNMP is used to communicate
management information between the network management stations and the
agents in the network elements.
The LCS60 supports the standard SNMP management information base (MIB-II).
Refer to RFC 1213.
Supported Traps and MIBs
The generic traps that are supported are:
0 = cold start 3 = link up
2 = link down 4 = authentication failure
Routing Information Protocol (RIP)
The LCS60 supports RIP processing, i.e., handling IP routing information
through the use of routed. routed maintains the route table used by IP to deter-
mine the interface through which to send packets.
The LCS60 enables the administrator to start and stop routed service separately
using the lcsadm interface. In addition, the administrator can configure this ser-
vice to be started at boot time.
AppleTalk Protocol
The AppleTalk network system was developed to provide a link-independent
architecture to connect Apple and non-Apple network devices. AppleTalk pro-
vides a simple peer-to-peer protocol which allows any network device to com-
municate with any other network device running AppleTalk software.
The LCS60 can be used as an AppleTalk router connecting the Ethernet LAN to a
virtual AppleTalk network. The virtual AppleTalk network created by the
LCS60 permits as many as 120 remote AppleTalk devices to dial in over the data
switch and connect to the AppleTalk internet. The virtual network on the LCS60
supports a single network number and zone name.
