Management
When you install the Management Module, it has four MAC addresses. One
MAC address is for each of the four segments. The Management Module shows
the base MAC address for segment 1. Add one to this address to get the MAC
address for segment 2, add one more for segment 3, etc. The four MAC
addresses are listed in HP AdvanceStack Assistant and the ASCII console’s
General Status option:
Each hub does not need a MAC address because the MAC addresses are for
the segments in the entire stack of hubs.
Configuring, Diagnosing, and Troubleshooting the
Network with Management
Before the Management Module was installed, there was no software interface
to determine why ports were disabled, why collisions and activity rates were
high, and why a user could not communicate with a device.
With the Management Module’s two included software interfaces, you can find
out which nodes are “top talkers” and are causing congestion on the network,
move some of those users to another segment, and monitor traffic in a
graphical format. These software features are described in chapter 3.
