Manual Modeling
This section details how to manually model your network.
Summary
Modeling the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis
manually in SPECTRUM involves modeling one of
the modules contained within the chassis,
locating the SmartSwitch 9000 Location icon in
the Lost and Found View, creating a Room
Location View and copying the SmartSwitch 9000
Location icon to the Room Location View. From
the SmartSwitch 9000 Location View icon you can
access the views available for the SmartSwitch
9000 Chassis.
Modeling the modules contained in the
SmartSwitch 9000 can be done using
AutoDiscovery (refer to the AutoDiscovery User’s
Guide) or manually as described in this chapter.
The SmartSwitch 9000 is managed through the
icons and views that represent the modules it
contains, the Flexible Network Buses (FNB1 and
FNB2), the INB, the Environmental Module (EM),
and the front panel interfaces.
Preparation and Topology
View Definitions
Before modeling the SmartSwitch 9000, you
should be familiar with SPECTRUM’s functions as
described in the Administration and Operation
documentation. You should be familiar with any
network management and hardware
requirements described in the SmartSwitch 9000
hardware documentation. You will also need to
know the IP addresses, MAC addresses, and
chassis positions of the modules contained within
the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis. A worksheet is
provided, for your convenience, to be used during
the modeling of your SmartSwitch 9000 and the
modules it contains. Use this worksheet to
identify the IP address, MAC address, module
type, and position of each module. This
information will be used to model the modules
contained within the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis.
