Chapter 2
Device View
What is in this Chapter
This chapter describes the following Device views available for the SynOptics
3000 Series Hubs management module:
• Logical Device View
• Physical Device View
• Bridge Device View
See Chapter 1, Introduction, for information on Accessing SPECTRUM Views.
Logical Device View
This view displays a logical representation of the modules installed in the
hub. The logical module representation provides information about the
individual modules and its ports. Figure 2-1 show examples of a Logical
Device view with module for Ethernet, Token Ring, and FDDI hubs. If the
configuration changes (for example, a module is pulled or added to the hub),
you see the corresponding change within this Device view after the next
SPECTRUM polling cycle for the hub.
The SynOptics 332xS Ethernet Local Bridge will not have a Logical Device
View. The hub representation is not a true reflection of a Logical Device in
that the modules are of different technologies (Ethernet, FDDI, etc.). In your
view the hub will show only those modules for a technology-specific hub.
