Port Configuration View  
The Administrative Status value takes precedence over Auto Partition and  
functionally operates between the auto-partition mechanism and the AUI/  
PMA.  
Enabling the port sets it to notAutoPartitioned regardless of its pre-disabling  
state.  
Op er a tion a l Sta tu s  
Displays the port's operational state. The operational state indicates that the  
port is enabled and working, even though it might be auto-partitioned. The  
notPresent state indicates the port is physically removed (note this may or  
may not be possible depending on the type of port). Possible values are  
operational, notOperational, and notPresent.  
Au to Pa r tition Sta te  
Indicates whether the port is currently partitioned by the repeater's auto-  
partition protection.  
The conditions that cause port partitioning are specified in the IEEE 802.3  
Standard.  
La st Sou r ce Ad d r ess  
Displays the Source Address of the last readable frame received. If there is no  
data 0.0.0.0.0.0 is displayed.  
Sou r ce Ad d r ess Ch a n ges  
This counter is incremented by one for each time the Last Source Address  
attribute changes. This may indicate whether a link is connected to a single  
DTE or another multi-user segment. The approximate minimum time for

load proceeds in the background. If an error  
is detected this trap is generated indicating  
the reason why in the status, as follows:  
(1) file not found;  
(2) access violation;  
(4) illegal TFTP operation;  
(5) unknown transfer ID;  
(7) no such user;  
(8) no response from the load server;  
(9) the download could not be started  
because of a lack of resources;  
(10) the length of a record differs from  
that implied by the value of the record  
length field;  
(11) the record type is not recognised;  
(12) record checksum error;  
(13) the device type in the file is incorrect;  
(14) the software image is not suitable for  
this version of the hardware;  
(15) the first record in the file was not a  
file header;  
(16) The byte count reported in the file  
trailer record differed from the  
number of bytes actually received.  
When loading a new image into the device  
containing the agent itself, the agent first  
reads the beginning of the image file to test  
if it is accessible and contains a valid image.  
If there is anything wrong, this trap is  
generated, no download is performed and  
the device continues to run uninterrupted.  
If this check is successful the download  
proper is begun. Should that fail, it is  
simply retried continuously until either an  
attempt succeeds or the device is reset.

SNMP -Rep ea ter Con figu r a tion View  
This view contains the following buttons and fields:  
Reset  
Allows you to reset the repeater. Resetting does not affect the management  
counters or the Administrative State, but it does cause a disruptive Self-Test.  
As a result of this action a Reset trap may be sent. This action may result in  
the loss of packets. Possible values are noReset and reset.  
Non Disr u p t Test  
Selecting selfTest performs an agent-specific, non-disruptive self-test. After  
performing this test the agent will update the repeater health information. If  
a change in the repeater health has occurred, the agent will send a trap.  
Possible values are noSelfTest and selfTest.  
Op er a tion a l Sta tu s  
Displays the operational state of the repeater. In the case of multiple kinds of  
failures (for example, a repeater failure and a port failure), this value will  
reflect the highest priority failure.

This table contains the following fields:  
In d ex  
Displays the specific port within the stack in the format module.port.  
Pa r t Even  
Displays whether an RMON event is generated when the port partition state  
changes. If no event is generated, this will be zero. The default value will be  
zero for point-to-point fiber and copper links like UTP, 10BaseF, etc. For multi-  
drop links, this will default to sending a trap and logging an event in the  
RMON log table.  
Lin k Sta te Even t  
Displays the RMON event generated when the link signal is lost for this port.  
If no event is required, this object will be zero. The default value is zero.  
Mod u le  
This attribute indicates whether the port is a modular port or not. Possible  
values are Unknown, Modular Port, and Not Modular Port.  
F u n ction  
Displays the function of the port. Possible values are Unknown, Repeater, and  
Bridge.  
Rep ea ter Nu m  
Displays the repeater to which this port is connected in a multiple repeater  
system. Setting this to a value that is illegal for a particular repeater will  
result in an error code being returned. By default each port is connected to a  
default repeater.  
Each repeater in the stack is represented in the system by an entry in the  
interface table. To switch a repeater port between different repeaters, change  
the value of the interface index to the new value. An error is returned if the  
value cannot be used; for example, using an index number that does not  
represent a repeater, or attempting to connect to a repeater that is not in the  
same unit.

IP Ad d r ess  
Displays the IP address for this interface.  
This parameter can be changed to a new IP; however, changing this  
parameter by itself has no effect on the IP stack configuration and this value  
will not automatically be stored for the next restart.  
NOTE  
The correct sequence is to make any changes, then Apply Changes. When  
Apply Changes is set to 'apply', the IP stack will store the changes  
permanently and will restart the stack.  
Netm a sk  
Displays the subnet mask for this interface. See the description of IP Address  
for a more information.  
Defa u lt Rou ter  
Displays the IP address of the default router used by this interface. See the  
description of IP Address for a more information.  
Ap p ly Ch a n ges  
This causes changes to the IP configuration of the device to be made  
permanent, reconfigures the stack to use the parameters, and optionally  
restarts the stack using these parameters. Store And Apply will store changes  
in non-volatile memory and reconfigure the stack to use those parameters.  
Applying the new parameters may cause the device to reset. In this case there  
will be a delay of a few seconds before the new configuration is adopted, which  
will allow the SNMP response to the set request to be returned.  
The correct procedure when changing IP configuration is to set all individual  
parameters and then apply changes. If the device resets before a Store And  
Apply is done, it will loose the changes.  
Possible values are Not Applicable and Store And Apply.

disables all learning and security. Continuous Learning means that addresses  
are learned continually. If more addresses are learned than are permitted on  
the port, the older entries will be aged out. Auto Learn deletes all addresses  
for this port, learns addresses up to the number permitted, then sets Port  
Mode to secure. Secure disables learning.  
When in a learning mode, Num Addr displays the maximum number of

Sta n d By Ma p Ta ble  
This button opens the Mrm Resilience Standby Table.  
Mr m Resilien ce Ta ble  
A device can be configured to have a number of resilient pairs” 802.3 Point-to-  
Point connections; for example, UTP, which allows two repeaters to be  
connected in a resilient configuration. In such a pair, one port is the main port,  
the other the standby port. One of these ports is enabled and is the current  
active port, the other is present in case the active port fails. The device detects  
a failure and switches ports.  
For a resilient pair definition to be valid, both ports must be on the same  
repeater. Also, the standby port must be configured to be disabled on boot;  
that is, it must recover from a power failure in a disabled state to prevent  
loops in the network.  
This table allows creation and deletion or resilient pairs and provides status  
control and information. The entries are indexed on the repeater number and  
slot/port location of the main port.  
Double-clicking an entry accesses the Mrm Resilience Table Entry View in  
which you can update the configuration of a resilient pair.
