FDDI Applications
Concentrator configuration; connection policy; station list; concentrator performance; FDDI statistics; 
frame translation
The FDDI menu lets you access windows to view a SmartSwitch 6000Õs FDDI 
conÞguration, connection policy, station list, and performance with respect to 
each Station Management (SMT) entity present on an installed HSIM-F6 High 
Speed Interface Module. You can also conÞgure your moduleÕs frame translation 
settings using the Frame Translation window.
The Chassis view for a SmartSwitch 2000 with an installed HSIM-F6 will also offer 
a FDDI Statistics window, which can be launched from the Device menu.
SMT provides the system management services for the FDDI protocols, including 
connection management, node conÞguration, error recovery, statistics collecting, 
and management frame encoding. SMT is comprised of various subcomponent 
functions, including Connection Management (CMT) and Ring Management 
(RMT); one SMT entity will be present for the ring connected to the HSIM-F6. 
The windows that provide information about the FDDI ring connected to the 
SmartSwitch are:
¥
ConÞguration
 Ñ This window displays the current conÞguration and status 
of the ring associated with the selected SMT entity.
¥
Connection Policy
 Ñ This window shows the types of connections between 
the four FDDI PHY (port) types Ñ A, B, M, and S Ñ that will be allowed by the 
SMT entity.
NOTE
The FDDI menu and associated management windows will only appear if you have an 
HSIM-F6 installed in an Ethernet SmartSwitch.
