Technical Notice

This document describes how to use Bay Networks™ Site Manager to conﬁgure a Model

5380 Ethernet Router or a Model 5580 Token Ring Router in a System 5000™ Hub.

This information supplements the instructions in the documentation set for Site Manager.

Note:

You can conﬁgure a Model 5380 Ethernet Router or a Model 5580

Token Ring Router in a System 5000 Hub using the UNIX version of Site

Manager only. The UNIX version of Site Manager runs on the Sun

SPARCstation, HP 9000, and IBM RS/6000.

Part No. 113629 Rev. A

Conﬁguring a Model 5380 Ethernet Router or a Model 5580 Token

Ring Router on a System 5000 Hub

To conﬁgure a Model 5380 or 5580 Router on a System 5000 Hub:

In the main Site Manager window, select Tools

➔

Conﬁguration Manager, and

then choose an operating mode: Local File, Remote File, or Dynamic.

If you chose Local File, the Select Router Model window appears (Figure 1). If you

chose Remote File or Dynamic, the Conﬁguration Manager window appears (see

Figure 2 on page 3).

Figure 1. Select Router Model Window

Click on System 5000 Hub in the Select Router Model window, and then click on

Conﬁrm.

The Conﬁguration Manager window appears (Figure 2).

Click on Module 3 in the slot in which you want to conﬁgure the Model 5380 or

5580 Router.

Once you select the slot and module for the router, the Module List window appears

(Figure 3).

Note:

Although the Conﬁguration Manager window shows 14 slots, if you

have an ATM/PPX backplane you can conﬁgure Model 5380 and 5580 Routers

in Slots 6 through 14 only. If you do not have an ATM/PPX backplane, you can

conﬁgure the routers in any of the 14 slots.

As with Access Stack Nodes (ASN

™

s), you can “stack” up to four Model 5380

and 5580 Routers that you want Site Manager to recognize as a single router.

A stack requires the ATM/PPX backplane; therefore, you can install and

conﬁgure each router in the stack in any slot from Slot 6 through 14. If you

install more than one router in a chassis that does not have an ATM/PPX

backplane, Site Manager will not recognize the routers as a stack. In that case,

each router functions as a separate router.

Note:

You can conﬁgure a Model 5380 and 5580 Router in Module 3 only. If

you attempt to conﬁgure either router model in Module 1 or 2, Site Manager

displays an error.

Figure 3. Module List Window

Click on the router model you want to conﬁgure, and then click on OK.

Site Manager redisplays the Conﬁguration Manager window.

In the same slot that you just speciﬁed for the router, select the module position of

the net module (if any) on the router.

Once you select the slot and module for the net module, the Module List window

appears (refer to Figure 3).

Click on the net module you want to conﬁgure, and then click on OK.

Site Manager redisplays the Conﬁguration Manager window.

Note:

You can conﬁgure the net modules on a Model 5380 or 5580 Router in

Module 1 or 2 only. If you attempt to conﬁgure the net modules in Module 3,

Site Manager displays an error.

Part No. 113629 Rev. A

Repeat Steps 5 and 6 to conﬁgure another net module on the router. If there are

no other net modules on the router, repeat Steps 3 through 6 to conﬁgure

additional routers (and net modules) in the hub.
