▼ To Use the SunFDDI/P Proxy Agent ( pf_fddismt7_2 )
The SunFDDI/P proxy agent ( pf_fddismt7_2 ) responds to SNM requests
from the console and issues SMT Request Frames (SRF) to a specified target
station. It then returns the information received from the target station in
response to the request. The basic operation of the SunFDDI/P proxy agent is
shown in Figure 9-3.
