Chapter 1 Introduction What Is in This Chapter This chapter introduces the SPECTRUM Management Module for the EMME/EMM-E6.
EMME/EMM-E6 EMME/EMM-E6 The EMME (Ethernet Management Module for Ethernet) and EMM-E6 (Ethernet Management Module for Ethernet with six ports) are multi-port intelligent bridging modules installed in the right most slot of an MMAC FNB chassis. They have channels which act as bridge ports (Channels A, B, C, D, E, and F). Channels A, B, and C also act as repeater ports and direct traffic over the MMAC Flexible Network Bus (or backplane).
SPECTRUM Support SPECTRUM Support The following model type names refer to the models used to specify attributes, actions, and associations for the EMME and EMM-E6 devices in SPECTRUM: • HubCSIEMME (EMME) • BRtrCSIEMM_E6 (EMM-E6) Standard RMON (RMONApp) DLM (DLM_Agent) and Routing Services (CtRouter) are also supported and may be purchased separately. Modeling Instructions It is recommended that you model all devices in SPECTRUM using the AutoDiscovery.
SPECTRUM Support Accessing SPECTRUM Views from the Device Icon Repeat the same actions for each repeater icon found in the Device Topology view of the EMME/EMM-E6. The connections established will appear in the topology view where EMME/EMM-E6 and network LAN icons were originally modeled, as well as in the EMME/EMM-E6 Device Topology (Dev Top) view. Figure 1-1 shows an example of the EMME model configuration that includes three channels connected to three repeaters.

EPIM Ports These labels represent the connection to the EPIM ports located on the front panel of the device, which direct traffic to one of two external Ethernet Port Interface Modules (EPIMs).
Chassis Device View EMME/EMM-E6 Module Icon Repeater Label This label represents the Repeater application that allows for transfer of information between the repeaters in the MMAC chassis and EMME/EMM-E6. The repeater label provides access to the Icon Subviews menu for this application. Table 2-6 lists specific Subviews menu selections for the Repeater Label. See Chapter 1, Introduction, for information on Accessing Device-Specific Subviews. Table 2-6.
