61.0. "DECbrouter 90 and hub management capabilities?" by BOSNET::COLUMBUS () Fri Sep 18 1992 08:33

    Where can I find the details of the hub management cababilities of the
    DECbrouter 90 when used inlace of the DECbridge 90?
    
    Thanks

61.1	DECbrouter and DECbridge 90 are probably interchangeable for backplane management	MEMIT::FORREST		`Fri Sep 25 1992 10:28`	10
	Our intentions are to have the DECbrouter 90 manage the backplane. Thus it would poll the slots to identify modules and determine repeater port status. I'm not sure yet, whether we will be able to match MAC addresses to repeaters ports as well as we do with the DECbridge 90. The first rev of the DECWANrouter 90 will not manage the backplane. The next rev of the DECagent 90 will manage the backplane. jack
61.2	update on BRUT capabilities	NOHOST::LEVIN	Bryan, LENaC Engineering, MLO3-3/U39	`Wed Oct 07 1992 20:36`	12
	>Our intentions are to have the DECbrouter 90 manage the backplane. Unfortunately, the BRUT will only manage repeaters. Only enough of the Dh90 slot table to deal with minimal repeater management. Period. At least, that's what I gather after working with the engineer at cisco who is doing the snmp/mib work on the BRUT out there. Too bad. Plan on having the DECagent 90 around for pots and wgb (and others, perhaps) management, even if a BRUT is in the hub. .bl
61.3	BRUT manage brouter as well?	GLDOA::MORRISON	Dave	`Thu Jan 14 1993 14:02`	3
	Will the BRUT allow management of the DECbrouter itself? Can I remote manage brouter and repeaters with only a hubwatch pc (or Ultrix) at central site routed to remotes via NIS 600 to brouter?
61.4	Brouter can manage itself	EMDS::SEAVER	LENAC Net Mgnt Mktg 223-4573	`Sun Jan 17 1993 20:59`	3
	I just answerd this in note 55. Brouter (also called BRUT) has integral SNMP agent and will manage itself over the WAN. Repeaters can be managed if they are in the same hub as the brouter or an agent.
61.5	DECbrouter 90 - GETS vs SETS	MEMIT::FORREST		`Wed Jan 20 1993 14:42`	4
	As I understand it, the DECbrouter 90 will only support SNMP SETS, and you have to TELNET in or download a configuration file to actually change parameters.
