        PRODUCT NAME:  DECmcc Fault Diagnostic Package Version 1.2   
	SPD 39.72.00

        INTRODUCTION 

	DECmcc Fault Diagnostic Package is one of several packages of 
	DECmcc Management Modules that can be used in conjunction with a 
	prepackaged DECmcc Product Family Management System.  The DECmcc
	Module Packages provide management functions and protocol support
	for generic and specific network and system managed object
	environments.

	DECmcc Module Packages can be installed on a DECmcc Director and
	used individually or in combination with one another.  The 
	management services provided by a newly installed module or module
	package are enrolled as part of the DECmcc Director Software and are
	available to management services already installed.

	DECmcc Director software is the minimum prerequisite software product
	for the DECmcc Management Module Packages such as the Fault Diagnostic
	Package.  The Fault Diagnostic Package can also be installed on a 
	DECmcc Basic Management System (BMS) and is available in OpenVMS 
	and RISC/ULTRIX versions.

	Refer to the DECmcc Product Family Overview Software Product
	Description (SPD# 37.19.xx) for a list of the DECmcc products and
	module packages and a description of their relationship to each
	other and the Digital Enterprise Management Architecture (EMA).

	DESCRIPTION
	
	The DECmcc Fault Diagnostic Package is a troubleshooting tool
	designed to simplify the process of isolating and resolving some
	of the most frequently occurring TCP/IP network problems quickly,
	minimizing down-time and maximizing network efficiency.  It uses
	common UNIX Utilities and Bourne Shell scripts to retrieve informa-
	tion about a TCP/IP network.

	The DECmcc Fault Diagnostic Option Package is comprised of ten
	diagnostic routines, a load check utility, a path trace utility,
	and a ping utility.  The diagnostic routines are:

	o  Diagnose host_unknown
	o  Diagnose host_unreachable
	o  Diagnose inetdaemon
	o  Diagnose network_unreachable
	o  Diagnose nfs_problem
	o  Diagnose rcp_denied
	o  Diagnose rlogin_denied
	o  Diagnose rsh_denied
	o  Diagnose telnet_refused
	o  Diagnose telnet_timeout

	These routines are designed to assist users isolate network faults
	such as component failures, improperly set parameters, and improper
	file protections.  When a diagnostic routine is executed, the 
	Fault Diagnostic software determines the tests to execute.  After
	the tests are executed, it produces a report containing test 
	results and recommended actions an operator should take to troubleshoot
	or repair the problem.

	The DECmcc Fault Diagnostic Package can diagnose problems between
	the station on which DECmcc resides and a remote host, or between
	two hosts that are remote from the DECmcc station with the DECmcc
	station residing on a third host which is not involved in the
	reported problem.
