Introduction This section introduces SPECTRUM Device Management documentation for SmartSwitch 6000 devices. This introduction to the Device Management documentation for Smart Switch 6000 devices contains the following information: • • • • management using SPECTRUM and for explanations of basic SPECTRUM functionality and navigation techniques, refer to the documentation listed under Required Reading.
Supported Devices • 6-SSRM-02 A new module for the SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. The 6-SSRM-02 views are detailed in the Smart Switch Router document.
Management Modes Standalone Mode You can configure the SmartSwitch 6000 module to operate in one of three management modes: Distributed, Standalone, or Mixed. In this mode, each installed module provides its own management functions. You configure all of the modules in the chassis to Standalone mode and assign separate IP addresses for each module. SPECTRUM management is through the representative Device icons created for each module during discovery and modeling.

Model Information View This section provides a brief description of the Model Information view available for models of SmartSwitch 6000 devices in SPECTRUM. Model Information views provide descriptive and configuration information about SPECTRUM models of individual devices, interfaces, and applications. Figure 17 shows an example of the Model Information view accessed from the Icon Subviews menu for the 6E132_25 model’s Device Icon.
Modeling This section describes how to manually model a 6C105 chassis and a SmartSwitch 6000 module installed in the chassis and place the resulting device icons in their proper SPECTRUM views. Introduction AutoDiscovery is not recommended for use when the SmartSwitch 6000 is in Mixed Management mode, see Management Modes. The following topics are covered in this section: • AutoDiscovery vs.
actions as placing an already discovered module in Mixed Management mode or adding a new chassis or module to the network. • Modeling using the Chassis IP Address in the Topology view. You can also create the chassis IP address in the Topology view by modeling with the chassis’s IP address in the Topology view and all the models in the chassis will appear here. Locate the chassis Device icon in the Search Manager. Select an attribute by which you can search for your Chassis.
Figure 18: Preparation for Modeling Chassis Container View Before modeling the chassis, you should be familiar with the process of creating models and accessing views. Refer to Getting Started with SPECTRUM for Administrators and How to Manage Your Network with SPECTRUM for instructions. You should also be familiar with any network management and firmware requirements described in the 6C105/6C107 chassis firmware documentation.
