2010.0. "management for Gigaswitch/FDDI" by TAVIS::ALTER () Tue Feb 14 1995 10:30

    I understood that HUBwatch 3.1 for windows does not support
    Gigaswitch/FDDI.
    
    Does the V3.1 for OSF/1 supports Gigaswitch/FDDI (without POLYCENTER
    netview)?
    Does the V3.1 for OpenVMS supports Gigaswitch/FDDI?
    
    Is there any graphical application for NetView (not POLYCENTER
    netview) to support Gigaswitch/FDDI?

2010.1OSF/VMS - yes, Windows - noNETCAD::FORINOTue Feb 14 1995 11:455
    HUBwatch V3.1 on OSF and VMS do support Gigaswitch/FDDI.  HUBwatch for
    WIndows support won't be available until V4.0.

    Can HUBwatch V3.1 on OSF/1 and VMS SETUP GIGAswitch ?
    Or HUBwatch can do only status monitoring of GIGAswitch ?
    For example, Filtering, port grouping, rate-limitation, etc...

    Regards,

2010.3HUBwatch can configure GIGAswitchNETCAD::FORINOThu Feb 16 1995 13:016
    You'll need the console port on the GIGAswitch to set up some basic
    information - like the IP address.  Once that is done HUBwatch can
    be used to configure and manage the GIGAswitch.  HUBwatch will do
    alot more that just monitoring the GIGAswitch.

    But there are limitations to managing the GS from HUBwatch.  For example 
    there is no -
    
            - rate limiting
            - ability to dump fwd db to a file
            - M-port support
            - AGL support
    
    And no plans to add this for HUBwatch V4.

     My customer wants to know - whether AGL support on Hubwatch/OSF
     will ever be supported? what are the current plans in that
     direction ?
    
     Thanks

    re .4
    
    The ability to dump fwd db to a file will be in of HUBwatch for OSF/1
    V4.
    
    re .6
    
    I think you'll have to ask the product manager, Jack Forrest, about the
    others including AGL suport.

2010.8Why not in HUBwatch?PTOJJD::DANZAKSun Feb 26 1995 18:059
    er, I'm not sure about AGL (???) but M port and rate limiting???? Just
    how should a customer set this stuff if HUBwatch won't do it and they
    have no other SNMP manager....?
    
    Prayer?
    Sacrificing animals?
    duuh....

re .8:

A fair query (if fancifully phrased) and deserving of a reply.
2010.10NETCAD::DRAGONMon Jan 15 1996 20:198
    Silence not intentional. Sometimes you just miss a reply. Thanks for
    bringing this back to our attention.
    
    M-port enable will be in HUBwatch V5.0. No plans yet for Rate Limiting
    but we will add it to the wish list.
