MultiCommManager User Guide

The Logical View

The logical view maps the logical organization of your modems. The same modems are displayed

as in the physical view; however, in the logical view you can assign them to modem groups. A mo-

dem group is an arbitrary grouping of modems at an IP site. You can group modems by how they

are configured, by the hosts they connect to, by security type, by type of modem card, or by any

other criteria that are useful to you. A modem or a rack of modems can be assigned to any modem

group at the IP site at which it is located, but not to a modem group at another IP site. When an

individual modem is assigned to a modem group, the rack in which the modem is installed appears

as an identifier; therefore, the same rack can appear in several different modem groups.

The Local Site

Although it uses an “IP” icon, by definition the local site consists of one or more

MultiModemManager racks connected to the management console by a local Arcnet link. Thus, the

local site has no IP address or SNMP management. Regardless, all general references to IP sites in

this manual and online Help should be understood to include the local site as well as remote sites,

which do have IP addresses.

You can choose not to display the local site. To display the local site, select Setup|Legacy

Management|Show Local Site and make sure the command has a check mark by it.

You might also have to configure MultiCommManager to talk to the management console’s

management interface card (MIC). To do this, select Setup| Legacy Management|Management

Interface Card and make sure that the card is enabled and that the settings correspond to the

switch settings on the card.

Unassigned Groups

Each site has a default Unassigned group, in which racks and modems are placed until the

administrator can move them to a defined group. A defined group is a group that has been created

by the system administrator. However, in the physical view the rack and modems at remote IP sites

are automatically placed in a predefined group, so the Unassigned group is empty. In the logical

view, racks and modems can be moved between modem groups by dragging.

Displaying Objects

The first time you start the Manager, the only objects displayed are the icons for the physical and

logical views. To open an object, double click it. A closed object has a “-” in front of the object name;

an open object has a “+”. Remote IP sites are not displayed in the Explorer until they have been
