1349.0. "HUBwatch & DS 700" by DPDMAI::DAVIES (Mark, SCA Area Network Consultant) Thu Aug 25 1994 14:13

    My customer has many DECserver 700s.  He wants to upgrade them to
    DECserver 900s.  GREAT.
    
    His question is:  Can HUBwatch manage the DECserver 700?
    
    I believe that this is a 2 part questions:
    
    1. Will HUBwatch draw a picture of the DS700 and allow him to manage
       via point-&-click?
    
    2. If not, can it be managed bu HUbwatch via the SNMP manager
       capability?    (yes, right?)
    
    Thanks,

I don't know what you mean by "SNMP manager capability". Again, HUBwatch does not manage (in any way) DECserver 700's. There is point-n-click management for the hub-based terminal servers (DS900/DS90) HUBwatch support for the DS900TM is somewhat limited. You can manage per-port characteristics, do session control, get counters, etc, but there is absolutely no LAT support. This is because the terminal servers did not implement a LAT MIB for SNMP management. Tom Hood HUBwatch

If you mean "DS900", yes.  HUBwatch does support the DECserver 900TM. (and
   90TL and 90M and 90L and 90L+).

I don't know what you mean by "SNMP manager capability".  Again, HUBwatch
does not manage (in any way) DECserver 700's.  There *is* point-n-click
management for the hub-based terminal servers (DS900/DS90)

HUBwatch support for the DS900TM is somewhat limited.  You can manage per-port
characteristics, do session control, get counters, etc, but there is absolutely
no LAT support.  This is because the terminal servers did not implement a LAT
MIB for SNMP management.
