Telemetry Port
The Telemetry port only receives packets destined for the port’s IP address, can
transmit packets onto the network, and is used for SNMP communications to the
probe. It requires the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway IP Address
fields. The following apply to Monitor/Transmit ports:
z HP OpenView can discover the interface
z The interface is IP addressable
z The interface responds to RMON groups 1 through 9 queries
z The interface will transmit all traps from the probe
z The interface will transmit all extended RMON packet samples from
Monitor-only ports, Monitor/Transmit ports, and itself.
Terminal
An input/output device that permits interaction with a probe or computer. The
device can be a display and keyboard, or a personal computer. An ASCII terminal,
or PC emulating an ASCII terminal, can be connected to the probe for
configuration, monitoring, and troubleshooting the probe.
ThickLAN
A local area network (LAN) operating over 10-mm diameter coaxial LAN cable.
HP ThickLAN networks are compatible with the IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base5
standard.
Token
A short frame that circulates over the ring until captured by a station that wants to
transmit a message. Tokens have a specific format as defined by the Token-Ring
standard.
Token-Ring
A LAN developed by IBM Corporation. Token-Ring transmits at 4 Mbit or 16
Mbit per second.
Token-Ring Cable
The MsAU cable used to connect devices to the Token-Ring network. This cable
connects a MsAU network port to either the RJ-45 or DB-9 probe port.
