899.0. "help..." by DPDMAI::DAVIES (Mark, SCA Area Network Consultant) Tue Apr 12 1994 12:03

    I am having some trouble with HUBwatch for WIndows V2.0.  This is my
    first attempt with HUBwatch, so I could be ingnorant.  I have the
    manuals, but still I am confused.
    
    I have a DEChub 900 with:
    
    	DECrepeater 900TM
    	DECserver 900TM
    	WANrouter 90
    	DECrepeater 90T
    	DECrepeater 90C
    	DECserver 90TL
    
    I can click on the DR900TM, DR90T and DR90C and I get a nice management
    window displayed.
    
    The WR90 doesn't work, but we haven't DLL'd it yet.
    
    I get error messages when I click on the DS900TM, DS90TL and WR90.
    
    The error is:
    
      No agent specified for the slot address - please include
      MAC address in the agent file entry for this device.
    
    I have tried doing this but I just can't seem to get it correct.  I
    have the MAC addresses and the following is what is in my file now:
    
      16.45.80.51 scahub900 "public" 5 2 AGENT900 
    
    
    Where/how do I enter this info?
    
    Thanks,
    
    Mark

899.1	READ the config manual	SLINK::HOOD	I'd rather be surfing	`Tue Apr 12 1994 14:17`	12
	Re: terminal servers: READ the HUBwatch config manual. It's a very well written document that explains both in tables (for people who like tables) and in flowcharts (for people who like flowcharts) how to configure your hub and your agents file. In there you will find a section on how to setup for managing the terminal servers. (Or you can look through this notes file for the thirty or forty places which has the same information.) Re: WANrouter 90: The manuals also mention there is no support for the WANrouter 90. The WANrouter 90 is not manageable through SNMP.

899.3	PINGs don't make it back...	DPDMAI::DAVIES	Mark, SCA Area Network Consultant	`Wed Apr 13 1994 12:53`	30
	Ok, I have followed all the charts and instructions and I have set up the IP address and mask on both DECservers (90TL & 900TM), enabled SNMP and set the community to "public". I have a new problem. WHen you double-click on the DECservers you get the message back "No response from the Agent". So, when I attempted to "ping" these 2 units I got nothing, ie, time-out. SO then I pinged the DECub 900 address and the DECrepeater 900TM and both of them answered just fine. So, I login to the DECservers and check their Internet Counters and I find that they have received AND replyed to (ICMP counters) the same number of pings which I sent from my workstation. My workstation can successfully ping the DEChub 900 and DR900TM. I have all the masks set identically, all have "public" as the comunity string, etc. The only thing I did for the DEChub and DR900TM, is that you are asked to enter the address of the router which is between you and your workstation. The DECservers did not ask for this info, the best I can tell. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Mark
899.4	Please try these commands and post results	SLINK::HOOD	I'd rather be surfing	`Wed Apr 13 1994 13:31`	7
	Please post results from the server: > SHOW SNMP > SHOW INTERNET > SHOW SERVER Tom Hood
899.5	Fixed.	DPDMAI::DAVIES	Mark, SCA Area Network Consultant	`Wed Apr 13 1994 16:54`	11
	It is fixed. All it took was reading the NAS manual manual. It describes how to set up the gateway, using the command: CHANGE INTERNET GATEWAY gateway-address Thanks for the help. Regards, Mark
