Chapter 1 Introduction What is in this Chapter This chapter describes the SPECTRUM Management Module for the SEHI. It also provides the model type name assigned to the SEHI in SPECTRUM. The model type name refers to the template used to specify attributes, actions, and associations for device models in SPECTRUM.
SPECTRUM and the SEHI Table 1-1. Supported Device Models (Continued) Device Model Description SEH-32, SEH-34 Non-intelligent, 13 (1 RJ71, 1 EPIM) and 26 (2 RJ71s, 2 EPIMs) ports SEH-22, SEH-24 Non-intelligent, 13 (12 RJ45s, 1 EPIM) and 26 (24 RJ45s, 2 EPIMs) ports SPECTRUM and the SEHI The SEHI is an intelligent stackable ethernet hub designed to provide advanced management capabilities for up to five non-intelligent stackable ethernet hubs. It is fully IEEE 802.
SEHI Applications SEHI Applications The SEHI supports both common and device-specific applications. SPECTRUM management of the SEHI is based on the following common and device-specific applications: • MIB-II (SNMP2_Agent) - IP (IP2_App) - System (System2_App) - ICMP (ICMP_App) - UDP (UDP2_App) • DownLoad App (CtDownLoadApp) • Stackable Repeater (StackableRptr) The device-specific Stackable Repeater application provides Stackable Repeater performance, device, configuration and model information views.
SPMA and the SEHI Figure 1-1.
SPMA and the SEHI • Chapter 6, Security, describes how to configure intruder protection for all the MIMs installed in the SEHI-controlled hubstack, and how to configure eavesdropper protection for any installed LANVIEWSecure hubs. You can access the Security application from the icon menu, the Hub View, or the command line.

Security Configuration Port Source Address List Port Source Address List The Port Source Address List contains the MAC address and its associated vendor name for each device communicating through a specific port on the SEHI or hubstack. You can access this view by highlighting the Logical Module Port Icon (refer to Figure 2-3), or single-clicking on the Logical Module Port Icon with the right mouse button, and selecting Port Source Address from the Icon Subviews menu.
Security Configuration Enabling a Backup Network Port Enabling a Backup Network Port Once you have enabled the locking feature for a specified repeater channel, you will not be able to change your network connection unless you have placed an additional port in a trunk state. If the channel is locked, changing the network connection to a station port causes the port to shut down. To place an additional port in a trunk state before locking the repeater channel, follow these steps: 1.

Chapter 4 Event and Alarm Messages What is in This Chapter This appendix describes the types of events and alarms generated by the SEHI. Additionally, this appendix notes if an event is also mapped to an identical alarm message, and provides any probable cause messages corresponding to these alarms. Events and alarms originate as generic SNMP traps sent from the physical device. These traps, or unsolicited messages, are translated as SPECTRUM events and displayed in the Event Log.
SEHI Events and Alarms SEHI Events and Alarms SPECTRUM supports the following events for the SEHI. The event message files are in the following directory: Table 4-1. SEHI Events and Alarms Event Message CsEvFormat/Event00010203 Probable Cause Message CsPCause/Prob00010203 {d "%w- %d %m-, %Y - %T"} The model created is not the same type The model created is not the same type as as the device. the device. Model type = {t}, Name = {m}, User = {u}.
SEHI Events and Alarms Table 4-1. SEHI Events and Alarms (Continued) Event Message CsEvFormat/Event00010402 Probable Cause Message CsPCause/Prob00010402 {d "%w- %d %m-, %Y - %T"} - Device {m} of DUPLICATE PHYSICAL ADDRESS type {t} is created with a physical (Mac) address already used by another model. The model has the same Physical (event [{e}]) address (Mac address) as that of some other model.
