Editing FDDI SMT Attributes
The FDDI Station Management (SMT) standard defines the protocols for
managing the Physical Layer Media Dependent (PMD), the Physical Layer
protocol (PHY), and the media access control (MAC) components of FDDI. The
SMT protocols monitor and control the activity of each node on the ring. Bay
Networks routers support Version 7.2 of the SMT protocol. SMT contains three
components:
• Connection management (CMT)
• Ring management (RMT)
• SMT frame services
The following sections describe how you can configure SMT.
