2088.0. "Ring Mapping tool. In the works?" by 31224::HARRIS_MA (Sales Executive II) Wed Jul 17 1996 13:31

    NPBU's largest customer, ORACLE, has been asking for a ring-mapping
    FDDI tool for several years. He started back in the days of
    DECconcentrator/Bridge 500 series stuff. They currently have $20Mil
    in DEChub900 (about 500 Hubs) and continue to ask about our ability to
    understand how important this is to managing a LARGE network. The key
    decision maker is beginning to think we don't really understand
    creating products for VERY LARGE networks.
    
    Are we working on a tool such as this ring-map as part of the new
    clearVISN program? The info is easily available in Multi-Chassis
    Manager already (upstream, downstream) we just need a tool thjat
    ring-maps this data graphically.
    
    Anything in the works?
