Managing FDDI Stations
Using SunNet Manager
9
This chapter describes how to configure and start the SunNet Manager agents
for SunFDDI/P on your machine. It also tells you how to use a SunNet
Manager console to recover FDDI statistics from the agents.
To use the SunNet Manager agents for SunFDDI/P you must run SunNet
Manager 2.2 or later, and you must install a SunNet Manager console (or
management application) on your network. For instructions on how to install
and configure SunNet Manager on the management station, refer to the SunNet
Manager Installation Guide.
All Sun-4d, Sun-4m and Sun-4u systems (and most other machines that
connect to TCP/IP networks) support protocols that enable a SunNet Manager
console to recover basic information and network statistics. In addition,
SunNet Manager provides a number of agents that are used to recover more
detailed information from the network:
•
SunNet Manager SNMP (simple network management protocol) agents are
used to gather information and to set parameters on remote machines.
•
SunNet Manager proxy agents are installed locally and used to recover
information as if they were located on a remote machine.
