975.0. "HUB MANAGEMENT FUTURES..." by BBOV01::MACKENZIE () Wed May 11 1994 03:53

            Hello,
            
            In respect to the DEchub900 range and the SNMP currently 
            implemented. Can somebody elaborate on Digitals direction 
            with SNMP II.
            
            How would a management upgrade to the DEChub 900 IP services 
            card be accomplished, FLASH update/TFTP, ROM ?
            
            Some other hub  vendors are taking a distributed management 
            engine, I take this to be a card in a hub to enables the hub 
            to perform as site SNMP management concentrator, that 
            collects SNMP management locally and communicates to a 
            central NMS.
            
            How does our DEChub management support or evolve to support 
            distributed SNMP management ?
            
            
            Regards,
            Tony

	SNMP II is on our radar, but hasn't made it close enough in to worry about it compared to all the planes about to land. When we do implement it, it should be a download FLASH upgrade. We currently have no plans to use the hub management agent as a proxy for systems outside the hub. That is something that could be done with a DECagent 90 or a DECpacketprobe 90 with some extensive firmware changes. If you think that competitors are winning with this angle, please let us know. jack
