This chapter introduces the SPECTRUM management module for the Cisco
Catalyst 5000/5500 Hubs. It describes the following:
¥ The Cisco Catalyst 5000/5500 Hubs
¥ SPECTRUM Model Type
- Accessing SPECTRUM Views
¥ SPECTRUM Views Roadmap
The Cisco Catalyst 5000/5500 Hubs
The Cisco Catalyst 5000 is a Þve slot chassis that provides Copper Distributed
Data Interface/multilevel transmission (CDDI/MLT-3) and single/multimode
Fiber Distributed Data Interface (FDDI) connectivity. The Cisco Catalyst
provides bridging and routing capabilities in a Virtual Local Area Networking
(VLAN) environment. Its architecture supports switched connections to the
following media:
¥ 10BaseT and 100BaseT (Fast Ethernet)
¥ 4/16 Mbps Token Ring
¥ Copper Distributed Data Interface/Fiber Distributed Data Interface
¥ Asynchronous Transfer Mode (ATM)
9032208 E4
The architecture for the 5000 also supports backbone connections for
100BaseT, CDDI/FDDI, and ATM.
1-1
SPECTRUM Model Type
The Catalyst 5500 is a 13 slot chassis that serves as a high-end switching
platform. Depending on the modules installed, the Catlayst 5500 can be used
in backbone applications as a scaleable Fast Ethernet or ATM switch. The
Catalyst 5500 also supports switched Ethernet, Token Ring and ATM modules
as well as existing Catalyst 5000 and LightStream 1010 modules.
The Catalyst 5500 does not have management support for LightStream
NOTE
boards. To manage these boards the Cisco Lightstream 1010 must be
installed in slot number 13 of the Catalyst 5500 chassis.
SPECTRUM Model Type
SPECTRUM allows you to monitor and manage network devices such as hubs,
routers, and switches through software models (see the AdministratorÕs
Reference for Modeling Instructions) of these devices and their associated
applications. The models you create reside in the SpectroSERVER database,
where they are updated continually with information gathered by polling the
actual devices.
Models are represented visually by icons that appear in various views in
SpectroGRAPH. Icons representing devices provide at-a-glance, color-coded
status information. Both device icons and application icons also provide
mouse-click access to other views that contain detailed conÞguration and
performance information.
SPECTRUM management modules are software packages that provide
templates for creating software models of particular devices or families of
devices. Management modules also include templates for modeling the
applications supported by these devices. Each template, called a model type,
speciÞes attributes that correspond to objects deÞned in the Management
Information Bases (MIBs) that govern the operation of the device or
application to be modeled.The model type names for the Cisco Catalyst 5000/
5500 Hubs are:
¥ HubCat5000
¥ HubCat5500
Refer to the How to Manage Your Network with SPECTRUM guide for
modeling instructions.
Icons and Labels that display information within and icon provide access to
SPECTRUM views. This is done through double-click zones (Figure 1-1), and
Icon Subviews menu selections (Figure 1-2).
To access the Icon Subviews menu as shown in Figure 1-2, do the following:
1. Highlight the icon or label.
2. From the View menu, select Icon Subviews or click the applicable mouse
button (middle or right). Refer to the Getting Started with SPECTRUM
for OperatorÕs guide for information on conÞguring your mouse.

Interface Device View
This section describes the Interface Options panel and the Interface icons
displayed in the Interface Device view. This view provides dynamic
conÞguration and performance information for each interface on this device. If
the conÞguration changes, SPECTRUM modiÞes the Device view after the
next polling cycle to reßect the new conÞguration. This view also provides a
Device icon which allows you to monitor the deviceÕs operation and access
other device-speciÞc views. Figure 2-1 shows an example of the Interface
Device view.
