3547.0. "ELM AM/FM needs ELMS?" by ANOSWS::COMFORT (Spent a little time on the hill) Wed Aug 12 1992 14:33

    
    
    Hi,
    
    A member of my customer community has just returned from MCC training
    and stated that it is necessary to run standalone ELMS to be able to
    utilize the ELM AM and FM.  Is this true?  This implies that the NIMUX
    process is necessary for communication. 
    
    Thanks,
    
    Dave

3547.1	Not true.	CHRISB::BRIENEN	DECmcc LAN and SNMP Stuff...	`Wed Aug 12 1992 14:50`	6
	No, the ELMS point product is not necessary to utilize the ELM AM and FM. There is a listener process (part of ELM FM?) that discovers new DECbridges. Perhaps he was referring to this? Chris Brienen

	Where can I read more about this listener process? Thanks! tl

	We should make sure that Ed Services is not distributing bad or questionable information. IMHO! Dave P.S. Thanks
3547.4	STM Listener in Autotopology Book.	CHRISB::BRIENEN	DECmcc LAN and SNMP Stuff...	`Wed Aug 12 1992 15:28`	24
	RE: 3547.2 > Where can I read more about this listener process? Information about the Listener (actually called the "STM Listener") is found in the DECmcc AutoConfiguration and AutoTopology Use book. The Bookreader version of the above document that I have (not sure whether I have the final version) has a Chapter 5 with the following headings: 5. Spanning Tree Maps The Spanning Tree Principle Spanning Tree Map Function Module Capabilities Managing the Spanning Tree Map Function Module How Spanning Tree Maps are Created --> Running the Bridge Listener in VMS --> Running the Bridge Listener in ULTRIX Creating a Spanning Tree Map Automatically Registering Bridges ...etc... Hope this helps. Chris

	Terrific! I'll give a read when I'm in the office. Thanks! tl

3547.7	May not be the trainer's fault	CONTRA::PMCVAY	Valuing Diverse Enterprise Empowerment	`Wed Aug 12 1992 16:35`	5
	I've dealt with customers/users who thought they could read MS-DOS or APPLE/POS floppies on their RT11 system. And insisted that they had really done it once but it no longer works. It's amazing what passes through the grey-matter filters sometimes...
