1-2 Using the SEHI User’s Guide
Using the SEHI User’s Guide
Your SPECTRUM Portable Management Application (SPMA) for the
SEHI100TX-22 consists of a number of different applications, each of which
provides a portion of the overall management functionality. Each of these
applications can be accessed from the icon menu (if you are using a management
platform) and from the command line (if you are running in stand-alone mode);
in addition, several applications can also be accessed from within the Hub View, a
graphical display of the SEHI and its ports.
The
SEHI UserÕs Guide
describes how to use many of the applications included
with the module; note that the instructions provided in this guide apply to the
SEHI100TX regardless of the operating system or management platform you are
using. Instructions for launching each individual function from the command line
(stand-alone mode) are also included in each chapter.
Following is a description of the applications described in this guide; while we
provide as much background information as we can, we do assume that youÕre
familiar with Ethernet networks and general network management concepts:
