2. The topology map now includes new features for connections that are a member of a port trunking group. It
will display the speed and number of Ethernet connections creating this port trunk group, as shown in the
adjacent picture.
3. This version will support switch upload and downloads for firmware, configuration files and log files, as
follows:
a. Firmware – The Switch now supports MS firmware downloads from a TFTP server.
b. Configuration Files – This switch now supports downloading and uploading of configuration files both
to (for configuration restoration) and from (for configuration backup) MS’s, using a TFTP server.
c. Log – The Switch now supports uploading MS log files to a TFTP server.
4. The user may zoom in and zoom out when utilizing the topology window to get a better, more defined view
of the configurations.
Single IP Settings
The Switch is set as a Candidate (CaS) as the factory default configuration and Single IP Management is disabled.

Figure 3-15 Single IP Settings window
The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter Description
SIM State Use the pull-down menu to either enable or disable the SIM state on the Switch. Disabled will
render all SIM functions on the Switch inoperable.
Role State
Use the pull-down menu to change the SIM role of the Switch. The two choices are:
Candidate – A Candidate Switch (CaS) is not the member of a SIM group but is connected to
a Commander Switch. This is the default setting for the SIM role of the Switch.
Commander – Choosing this parameter will make the Switch a Commander Switch (CS).
The user may join other switches to this Switch, over Ethernet, to be part of its SIM group.
Choosing this option will also enable the Switch to be configured for SIM.
Group Name
Enter a group name in this textbox. This is optional. This name is used to segment switches
into different SIM groups.
Discovery Interval
(30-90)
The user may set the discovery protocol interval, in seconds that the Switch will send out
discovery packets. Returning information to a Commander Switch will include information
about other switches connected to it. (Ex. MS, CaS). The user may set the Discovery Interval
from 30 to 90 seconds. The default value is 30 seconds.
Hold Time Count
(100-255)
This parameter may be set for the time, in seconds; the Switch will hold information sent to it
from other switches, utilizing the Discovery Interval. The user may set the hold time from 100
to 255 seconds. The default value is 100 seconds.
Click the Apply button to accept the changes made.
