Select the device (on either the rear or front view) to display the Device Configuration dialog by doing one of the following:
To display the configuration parameters for a particular device category, select one of the following node configuration categories from the Category popup menu:
These dialogs are described in the sections that follow.
Use the Node dialog to configure node properties (Figure 2-1).
The Node dialog parameters are described in Table 2-1.
| Parameter | Description |
Node Description | Describes the Node or device that you are connected to. In this case, it is an MGX 8850 Wide Area Switch. |
Up Time | Displays the amount of time for which the device has been active. |
Contact | Type your contact's name in the space provided. This name and number will always be displayed. |
Location | Type in the location of the device. |
Node Name | Specifies the name of the node and is unique among all the nodes in the network. Whenever the name of the node is changed, AutoRoute has to propagate the information to the other nodes in the network. It also specifies the name of a PAR Feeder node. Node names must be unique within the network. Node names must be 1 to 8 characters in length. Node names must start with a letter. Node names can include "_" or "." Node names are case sensitive. |
BackplaneSerialNo | Serial number on the backplane of the shelf. |
Shelf Alarm Status | Alarm status of the whole AXIS shelf. Can be clear, minor, or major. |
Date and Time | Provides the current date and time. |
Clock Lost On Reboot | Can be True or False. |
Use the LAN Interfaces dialog to view LAN interface information (Figure 2-2).
The LAN Interfaces dialog parameters are described in Table 2-1.
| Parameter | Description |
Interface | Identifies the interface on the device. |
Type | Identifies the type of interface on the device. Can be ethernet or slip. |
Speed | Identifies the speed of the interface. |
Status | Identifies the status of the interface. Can be up or down. |
Use the Serial Port Info dialog to display card information for all cards in the chassis (Figure 2-3).
The parameters are described in Table 2-3.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Port | Identifies the number of the port or ports. |
Speed | Identifies the speed of the port. |
Stop Bits | Identifies the number of stop bits for the port. |
Parity | Indicates whether parity is odd or even. |
Use the Sensor Info dialog to display and configure switch interface information (Figure 2-4).
The parameters are described in Table 2-4.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
Value | Reports the most recent measurement seen by the sensor. To correctly display or interpret this variable's value, use the CLI. |
Type | Indicates the type of data reported by the Value parameter. This variable is set by the agent at start-up and the value does not change during operation. |
Scale | Indicates the exponent to apply to sensor values reported by the Value parameter. This variable is set by the agent at start-up and the value does not change during operation. |
Status | Indicates the present operational status of the sensor. |
TimeStamp | Indicates the age of the value reported in the Value parameter. |
SensoryValueUpdateRate | Indicates the rate that the agent updates the Value parameter. |
Use the Card Summary dialog to display a summary of all the cards in the device (Figure 2-5).
The parameters are described in Table 2-5.
Module Type Identifies the module/card type in each slot. Can be PXM 45 or AXSM. Slot Number Identifies the slot number each module/card resides in. Module State Identifies the state of the module/card. Can be: unknown OK Missing ok but diag failed boot self test failed missing mismatch wtih parent mismatch config diag failed Admin Status Administrative status of the card. Should read enabled.
