The Model 3910S occupies two slots in a LattisNet System 3000 concentrator, where it attaches to network management and FDDI buses on the concentrator's backplane. In FDDI networks, each host station supports the American National Standards Institute's (ANSI) FDDI Station Management (SMT) protocol. The Model 3910S collects SMT-generated data from the host stations, and an on-board AMD 29005 RISC processor processes the management frames within the concentrator. A resident SMT-to-Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) proxy agent enables the central management station - a Sun SPARCstation running Optivity - to access local and remote SMT data. By supporting industry-standard SNMP, the Model 3910S is capable of passing management data through bridges or routers in extended networks. SNMP compatibility also enables network administrators to manage LattisNet Ethernet, Token Ring and FDDI networks, as well as other SNMP-compliant devices, from a single management station. Three Communication Paths Three Media Access Control (MAC) entities on the module enable the Model 3910S to manage three paths within the concentrator: primary, secondary and local. FDDI stations are assigned to an internal path from the management station. The Model 3910S is fully compatible with the International Standards Organization's FDDI Media Access Control (MAC), Physical Medium Dependent (PMD) and Physical Protocol (PHY) standards. The module also supports the most current version of the ANSI FDDI X3T9.5 SMT protocol (Version 6.2). In the future, as the standard evolves, software upgrades will ensure continued compatibility until the standard is finalized. The Model 3910S supports 2 megabytes (Mb) of ROM on-board, incorporating full FDDI management information base (MIB), SMT, Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) and diagnostic software at the board level. An additional 2 Mb of RAM enables SMT and SNMP to be downloaded from the management station using TFTP. A local load option is also available to allow startup without intervention by the network management station. Module Interfaces The Model 3910S offers fiber optic Media Interface Connectors (MICs) as the interface to the network. Two MIC ports are offered on the module face plate, labeled as Port A and Port B, to enable peer, tree, null-attached and dual-homed network configurations. In addition, the Model 3910S offers three other interfaces to support various management functions. A service port, featuring a DB-9 male connector, enables diagnostic and configuration data to be obtained at the management station. An RS-232 serial communications port, implemented with a DB-25 male connector, enables the module to communicate with the management station out-of-band, via a modem link, should in-band communications fail. The module also includes an optical bypass switch (optional) for nodes attached to dual rings. The switch function, implemented through a 6-pin mini-DIN connector, enables the network manager to remove the concentrator from the ring without causing the network to wrap. LED Indicators The Model 3910S features an array of front panel LEDs to indicate module status, faults, wrap conditions and active paths at a glance. In addition, individual port LEDs indicate activity, link error alarms, fault and configuration status (tree or peer) for the A and B MIC ports.
