Management Module Guide
Chapter 1
Introduction
What is in This Chapter
This chapter describes the SPECTRUM Management Module for the
NBR-620. It also provides the model type name assigned to the NBR-620 in
SPECTRUM. The model type name refers to the template used to specify
attributes, actions, and associations for device models in SPECTRUM.
NBR-620 Management Module
The SPECTRUM NBR-620 Management Module manages NBR-620 devices
using the SNMP network management agent. SPECTRUM bases its
management of these devices on the Management Information Bases (MIBs),
which come as part of the management module. There are three SPECTRUM
model type names for NBR-620 Devices, described as follows:
BRtrCSINBR620: A Cabletron Systems Six-Port Intelligent Bridging
Routing Module supporting two Bridging Routing Interface Module (BRIM)
interfaces and four Ethernet Port Interface Modules (EPIMs).
The other two models, NBR-420 and the NBR-220, use the same model type as
the NBR-620, BRtrCSINBR620. The NBR-420 has one BRIM interface and
two EPIMs. The NBR-220 has two EPIMs and does not support UPS or
Modems. Once the model type has been added, the device is queried and the
appropriate number of ports are displayed.
9031240 E5

SPECTRUM and the NBR-620
SPECTRUM and the NBR-620
TheNBR-620 is a multi-port intelligent bridging module.The NBR-620 has
two Bridging/Routing Interface Module (BRIM) slots. A BRIM performs the
same bridging functions as an EPIM: it transfers packets between different
channels. However, unlike EPIMs, BRIMs bridge these packets from one
transmission type to another (e.g., Ethernet to FDDI network backbones, etc.).
Possible BRIMs are as follows:
¥ BRIM-F6: FDDI Dual Attached Station (DAS) connection (currently
supported)
¥ BRIM-E6: Ethernet module with selectable media connections
¥ BRIM-W6: Wide Area Network connection
¥ BRIM-T6: Token Ring connection
¥ BRIM-A6: Asynchronous Transfer Mode connection
To model this device, create LAN_802_3 models representing each network
that the NBR-620 is bridging and connect them to the NBR-620 icon. The
software ÒconnectsÓ an ethernet icon to each of the ethernet ports (Channels
A, B, C, and D) and places them in the NBR-620 Device Topology (DevTop)
View. You can then copy these icons into the LAN_802_3 icons to allow
performance statistics to be gathered on each LAN_802_3 subnet. Figure 1-1
shows a possible NBR-620 conÞguration in SPECTRUM.
NOTE
If you are running a previous version of SPECTRUM, the following user
interface aspects may differ from those in SPECTRUM version 4.0:
¥Order and names of menu selections
¥ Navigational features (mouse button functionality)
For information about menu selections and navigating within previous
versions of SPECTRUM, refer to the SPECTRUM System UserÕs Guide. For
more information about menu selections and navigating within SPECTRUM
version 4.0, refer to the SPECTRUM Views reference.

Link Error Rate Estimate
The link error rate estimate is a cumulative long-term average of the bit error
rate, which represents the quality of the physical link. The link error rate
estimate is computed when the port is connected and every 10 seconds
thereafter. It ranges from 10-4 to 10-15 and is reported as a whole integer. For
example, if the portÕs link error rate estimate is computed to be 10-5, the value
reported in this Þeld would be 5, which represents an actual rate of 1,250 bit
errors per second. A lower link error rate estimate indicates a higher bit error
rate as shown in Figure 3-1.

Router Redundancy
Router Redundancy
Router Redundancy enables SPECTRUM to contact the device through an
alternate port in the event of a primary port failure.
If SPECTRUM is unable to contact the router through the IP address initially
assigned to it (Primary Address), the routerÕs icon turns yellow, and
SPECTRUM attempts to reach the router via the ports on the deviceÕs
Preferred Address list, until contact is made. SPECTRUM then uses that IP
address to obtain network management information from the router until the
Primary Address becomes available again. When contact is re-established
through the Primary Address, the icon turns green.
If SPECTRUM is unable to make contact via any of the Preferred Addresses,
the routerÕs icon turns red, denoting that contact has been lost with the actual
physical device.
Turning Router Redundancy Off and On
The default status for Router Redundancy is ÒTrueÓ (on). Turn it off and on as
follows:
1. Select Model Information from the Icon Subviews menu.
2. Click Router Redundancy Information. Select False from the Router
Redundancy button to turn off router redundancy and select True to
turn it on.
Selecting Addresses for Router Redundancy
1. Ensure that Router Redundancy is on (ÒTrueÓ).

Event and Alarm Messages
What is in this Chapter
This chapter describes the types of events and alarms generated by the
NBR-620 and any probable cause messages corresponding to these alarms.
NBR-620 Events and 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. For more information on traps
generated by a speciÞc device, refer to RFC 1213, available through the
Internet system. Also refer to the MIB documentation for the speciÞc device.
For each event/alarm listed in this chapter, the following information is
provided:

{d Ò%w- %d %m-, %Y - %TÓ} System Voltage Low condition has been
detected by {m} ({t}).
The internal 5 volt line of the system is
low. The voltage low condition indicates
that either the power supplies are failing
or there is not enough power available to
the host modules. This is a serious
condition and should be addressed
immediately.

{d Ò%w- %d %m-, %Y - %TÓ} TrafÞc threshold, {I 1} packets per {I 3}
seconds exceeded on the repeater network
{I 5} of {m} ({t}).
The device(s) attached to this channel
may have an application level problem.
The attached devices may be operating
properly but the application requires a
large amount of network bandwidth. If
the application requires a large amount of
network bandwidth, then a bridge or
router may be used to logically separate
various network segments. This trap
indicates that module or port level
thresholds on this repeater channel are
needed to pinpoint high bandwidth users.
CsEvFormat/Event000d0130

{d Ò%w- %d %m-, %Y - %TÓ} Error threshold exceeded. An error
threshold of, {I 1}% good packets in {I 5}
seconds, exceeded on repeater network {I
7} of {m} ({t}).
A user deÞned threshold has been
exceeded on this channel. This threshold
could indicate that a malfunctioning
device is present on this channel or that a
cable fault exists. A module or port level
threshold should be set to further
troubleshoot to the offending node.

{d Ò%w- %d %m-, %Y - %TÓ} Collision threshold exceeded. Collisions
exceeded {I 1}% good packets in {I 3}
seconds on repeater network {I 5} of {m}
({t}).
A user deÞned threshold has been
exceeded on this channel. This threshold
could indicate that a malfunctioning
device is present on this channel or that a
cable fault exists. Collisions are usually
caused by many nodes contending for the
network. As trafÞc rates increase, the
collision rate usually follows. Thus, if this
channel has a high bandwidth utilization,
a high collision rate is not unlikely. Use
module and port level thresholds to
further troubleshoot to a device level.

The network administrator has changed
the status of port locking for this repeater
channel. The security feature locks all
ports on this repeater channel so that only
a valid user already in the source address
table can access the network.
