Number of RPS Servers per Ring

The IBM Token Ring Network Architectural Reference specifies that only one

RPS server should exist on each token ring segment. You must ensure that among

all Bay Networks bridges and other bridges on a given segment, only one RPS

server is enabled.

Redundant Servers on a Ring

The IBM LAN Network Manager workstation might have its own set of

management servers monitoring the segment locally attached to that workstation.

Refer to Figure 2-1. If this is true, then you need not enable the LNM Servers on

the Bay Networks source routing bridge interface to the same segment.

Passwords

Bay Networks system software includes ASCII password functionality for the

Controlling and Observing IBM LAN Network Manager applications. You can

use the password parameters of the LNM Servers Interfaces screen to support

password-only access for up to four (authorized) Reporting Links to the LRM

Server for a given bridge. (LRM can communicate with the Controlling IBM LAN

Network Manager and up to three Observing IBM LAN Network Managers.)

This capability is defined as a Security Function in the IBM Token Ring Network

Architectural Reference. This Security Function maintains and checks passwords

that are used to authenticate users of Reporting Links, usually network

administrators who are using the IBM LAN Network Manager application.

The designated Controlling and Observing IBM LAN Network Manager

applications automatically receive notification when LRM in a given source

routing bridge rejects an attempt by an unauthorized IBM LAN Network Manager

to establish a Reporting Link to that LRM server.
