Controlling Token Ring MIM Management Mode
Token Ring MIMs can run in one of two modes:
Auto (AUT)
Auto mode means that the MIM is using the hardware configuration settings; it is
not being controlled. If you change an operating parameter (ring speed, bypass
state, and so forth) on a module in Auto mode, the mode changes to Management
to indicate that it is being managed.
Management (MGT)
Management mode means that management takes precedence over the default
hardware settings on the board. If you toggle back to Auto mode, the hardware
default settings will be restored, and any administrative actions you have taken to
alter those settings will be undone.
To change a module’s management mode:
1. Click mouse button 1 on the Module Management Mode box (at the bottom
of the module) to toggle between AUT and MGT.
or
1. Click mouse button 3 in the Module Name, FNB State, or Port Display Form
box to display the Module menu.
2. Drag down to Mode, drag right to Auto or Management, and then release.
Note that there is no Auto mode available for the management board.
Enabling All Ports on Token Ring Modules
You can choose to enable all Station Ports, all Ring Ports, or all ports on a module.
To enable all ports on a Token Ring MIM:
1. Click mouse button 3 in the Module Name, FNB State, or Port Display Form
