This document is a manual for system managers on how to use the HUBwatch for Windows application to manage DECbridge 90 LAN bridge modules.
It covers various aspects of managing these bridges, including:
- Selecting a specific bridge module within the HUBwatch application.
- Managing its configuration, which involves viewing detailed reports (Bridge Information, Bridge Ports, Bridge Forwarding, Bridge Spanning Tree) and configuring protocol filtering (adding, modifying, deleting filters).
- Monitoring its performance, by accessing performance reports and MIB object graphs.
- Handling faults, which includes viewing error reports and setting threshold counters for alarms.
- Accessing the Management Information Base (MIB) for the device.
- Printing various bridge reports.
The DECbridge 90 is described as an IEEE 802.3 CSMA/CD network LAN bridge, with management facilitated by the DECagent 90. The manual also includes an appendix for related documentation and ordering information from Digital Equipment Corporation.
