Using the Bay Command Console (AN/BN Routers)
1-6 117383-A Rev. A
Box -- The BCC uses the name box to identify the chassis for a Bay Networks
nonstackable device. Every box has a type parameter; the value assigned to the
type parameter identifies the type of Bay Networks device. For example, the type
parameter has the value “an” for an AN router, and “frecn” for a BCN router with
a FRE controller module.
Global/Box-wide objects -- Objects that provide services uniformly to all slots of
a network device (box-wide); for example, global IP, BGP, TCP, SNMP, FTP,
TFTP, and Telnet. Some protocols, such as IP, RIP, and OSPF, have global and
interface-level objects.
Board -- The BCC uses the name board to identify any logic or circuit board in a
Bay Networks device. Each board (or module) typically occupies a slot in a
network device. On some Bay Networks products, one board may contain another
board such as an RMON probe or a data collection module (DCM). All board
objects have a type parameter that identifies the module type. For example, “qenf”
is the value of the type parameter for a Quad Ethernet with Filters module.
Slot -- A location, as well as a physical and electrical means, for attaching
modules to logic and power connections available on the device chassis.
Connector -- The physical and electrical means to interconnect an interface
module in a network device directly or indirectly to a physical-layer network
medium.
Line -- A physical (and in some cases, logical) circuit identified typically by
means of a slot, connector, interface type (CSMACD, SYNC, FDDI, and so on),
and, where applicable, a channel number (such as with TI/E1 interface types).
Port -- An interface object defined by its type (for example, an Ethernet port) and
location (slot and connector) within a network device. On a network device or a
user end station, a port is also a logical point of termination for data sent or
received by a specific protocol or application. For example, a UNIX workstation
receives syslog messages from a remote device at UDP logical port number 162.
Note: Refer to the Release Notes for module descriptions based on the literal
value of the type parameter for any board object. For example, using the table
from the Release Notes, a board type of “qenf” translates to a Quad (four-port)
Ethernet with hardware filters module.
