Managing the Hub
In addition to the performance information described in the preceding sections,
the Hub View also provides you with the tools you need to configure your hub
and keep it operating properly. Hub management functions at the device level
include finding a MAC address and setting the polling intervals to contact the
device. At the module level, you can configure the module’s FNB left and right
connections, set board speed and operating mode, and enable all ports on the
module. At the station or ring port levels, you can remove a station from the ring,
convert a station port to a ring-out port; and enable or disable station or ring
ports.
Managing the Hub at the Device Level
From the Device menu, you can select the Find MAC Address and Polling
Intervals menu options.
Find MAC Address
The Find MAC Address menu command will let you search for any station on the
TRMMIM-controlled ring by MAC address. When a station is found, its location
will be described by module and port number.
To start the Find MAC Address command:
1. Click on to display the Device menu.
2. Drag down to Find MAC Address, and release. The following window will
appear.
