workmanship. Cisco agrees to provide Frontier with a monthly report which
identifies the measurements associated with Frontier's [*] to enable
Frontier to review and correct any deficiencies in its performance
hereunder. In the event Cisco fails to provide the required monthly report
for any of the [*] which are the basis for Frontier's failed performance
hereunder, Cisco may not invoke its Manufacturing Rights unless and until
such time as Cisco provides Frontier with the required reporting information
and notice of Frontier's failure for the specified [*], and Frontier, after
receipt of the reporting information and notification from Cisco, fails to

relationship between the Parties as set forth by the Agreement, to contact
Frontier to schedule a meeting with Frontier's senior management to discuss
and review resolution alternatives to the material breach prior to delivery
of written notice of termination to Frontier. In the event the Parties fail
to identify a reasonable resolution to the breach during the management
meeting, Cisco may, immediately thereafter, deliver termination notice to
Frontier.
10.2 ROYALTIES AND LICENSE FEES.
(a) In the event Cisco exercises its Manufacturing Rights, Cisco agrees

provided hereunder, Cisco agrees to keep and maintain, for a period of [*] after
the end of the year to which they pertain, complete and accurate records of the
Products manufactured and distributed by Cisco in order to calculate and confirm
Cisco's royalty obligations under Section 10.2 above. Upon reasonable prior
notice, Frontier will have the right, exercisable not more than once every
twelve (12) months, to appoint an independent accounting firm reasonably
acceptable to Cisco, at Frontier's expense, to examine such books, records and
accounts during Cisco's normal business hours to verify the royalties due by
Cisco to Frontier under Section 10.2 above, subject to such independent
accounting firm's execution of Cisco's standard confidentiality agreement;
provided that execution of such agreement will not preclude such firm from
reporting its results to Frontier. In the event such audit discloses an
underpayment or overpayment of royalties due hereunder, the appropriate party
will promptly remit the amounts due to the other party.
10.4 MANUFACTURING INFORMATION ESCROW.
(a) The parties agree that upon request by Cisco, Frontier will promptly
place the following materials into an escrow account: (i) the source code

11. INDEMNIFICATION
11.1 PROPRIETARY RIGHTS.
(a) Frontier agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Cisco and its
officers, directors, employees, shareholders, customers, agents, successors
and assigns from and against any and all loss, damage, settlement or expense
(including legal expenses), as incurred, resulting from or arising out of
any claims which allege that any Products or the use or sale thereof
infringe upon, misappropriate or violate any patents, copyrights, or trade
secret rights or other proprietary rights of persons, firm or entities who
are not parties to this Agreement except for such claims that result solely
(i) from Frontier's compliance with design specifications and/or data sheets
supplied by Cisco or (ii) from Cisco's alteration or modification of
Products after delivery by Frontier; provided that Cisco (i) promptly
notifies Frontier, in writing, of any notice or claim of such alleged
infringement or misappropriation involving the Products of which it becomes
aware, and (ii) permits Frontier to control, in a manner not adverse to
Cisco, the defense, settlement adjustment or compromise of any such claim
using counsel reasonably acceptable to Cisco. Cisco may employ counsel, at
its own expense (provided that if such counsel is necessary because of a
conflict of interest of either Frontier or its counsel or because Frontier
does not assume control, Frontier will bear such expense), to assist it with
respect to any such claim. Frontier shall not enter into any settlement that
affects Cisco's rights or interest without Cisco's prior written approval.
Cisco shall have no authority to settle any claim on behalf of Frontier.
(b) If by reason of such infringement claim, Cisco or its customers
shall be prevented or are likely to be prevented by legal means from selling
or using any Products, or if, in Frontier's opinion, such claim is likely to
occur, Frontier will use its best efforts, at its expense, to: (i) obtain
all rights required to permit the sale or use of the Products by Cisco and
its customers; or (ii) modify or replace such Products to make them

non-infringing (and extend this indemnity thereto), provided that any such
replacement or modified Products are satisfactory to Cisco. If Frontier is
unable to achieve either of the options set forth above within a reasonable
period of time after the issuance of the injunction, but in no event longer
than thirty (30) days after receipt of notice thereof, Frontier shall
promptly refund to Cisco the invoiced purchase price, plus all shipping,
storage, and associated costs, of any Products returned freight collect to
Frontier which Cisco or its customers are legally prohibited from selling or
using.
11.2 PRODUCT LIABILITY INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) Frontier expressly and unequivocally agrees to and hereby does

employees, shareholders, agents, successors and assigns harmless from and
against all claims, damages, losses, costs and expenses, including
attorneys' fees, arising in favor of any person, firm or corporation on
account of product liability in any way relating to the Product, provided
that Cisco (i) promptly notifies Frontier, in writing, of any notice or
claim hereunder of which it becomes aware, and (ii) permits Frontier to
control, in a manner not adverse to Cisco, the defense, settlement,
adjustment or compromise of any such claim using counsel reasonably
acceptable to Cisco. Cisco may employ counsel, at its own expense (provided
that if such counsel is necessary because of a conflict of interest of
either Frontier or its counsel or because Frontier does not assume control,
Frontier will bear such expense), to assist it with respect to any such
claim. Frontier shall not enter into any settlement that affects Cisco's
rights or interest without Cisco's prior written approval. Cisco shall have
no authority to settle any claim on behalf of Frontier. Notwithstanding the
indemnification provisions of this Section 11.2, it is mutually agreed and
understood that any and all obligations, commitments and liabilities with
respect to Product liability as defined in this Section 11.2 shall not apply
to Frontier to the extent Products are manufactured by Cisco in the event
Cisco has exercised its rights to manufacture Frontier's Products pursuant
to Section 10 hereunder, provided that Frontier's Product liability
indemnity obligations under this Section 11.2 shall continue to apply for
defects arising from the design of the Product.

faith) to reach agreement on an adjusted invoice value, Cisco agrees to pay and
Frontier shall accept the following amounts:
(a) The price for all Products completed (which items were delivered or
available for delivery at the time notice of termination was given) pursuant
to the affected purchase order(s) and not previously paid for as specified

property in which Cisco has or may acquire an interest.
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments made under this Section 14.6
shall in no event [*] in the terminated purchase order(s) less payments
otherwise made or to be made. Any amounts payable for property lost,
damaged, stolen or destroyed prior to delivery to Cisco win be excluded from
amounts otherwise payable to Frontier under this Section 14. THIS SECTION

reasonable control of such party or its suppliers. In the event Frontier fails
to deliver product due to such causes, Cisco may either:
(a) Terminate this Agreement or any part hereof as to Product(s) not
shipped; or
(b) Suspend this Agreement in whole or in part for the duration of the
delaying cause, and at Cisco's option, buy the Product(s) elsewhere and

NETSCOUT FDDI/CDDI PROBES PROVIDE FULL RMON CAPABILITIES FOR HIGH SPEED
BACKBONES
Distributed networks use a variety of topologies in order to maximize network
performance and utilization. In many cases FDDI and/or CDDI technologies have
been applied to needs for a high speed, high performance backbone connecting the
variety of Ethernet, Token Ring, and WAN segments which typically integrate to
form enterprise wide communications.
Since the development of the RMON standard, first for Ethernet and then extended
to Token Ring, users have quickly adopted this standards based technology to
provide both pro-active as well as reactive diagnostic operations for
increasingly complex network configurations. However, no cost effective
mechanism has exited to address the needs of users to understand the operation
and diagnose problems associated with high speed backbone segments.
The NETscout 7100 Series EnterpriseProbe for FDDI/CDDI networks fills this major
hole in diagnostic capabilities. Depending on the model selected, users may
connect to both FDDI and CDDI network segments in either single or

dual attached configurations. The NETscout's high performance Pentium processor
allows users to gather RMON based statistics for all ring traffic activity.
NETscout's Domain View architecture provides the same capability to subdivide
traffic on the ring and effectively operate multiple concurrent RMON probes on a
single platform. Management from the NETscout RMON management package presents
FDDI/CDDI information in exactly the same forms as for Ethernet and Token Ring
thus presenting a complete and uniform diagnostic mechanism for multi-media
enterprise networks.

NETSCOUT: UNBEATABLE SCALABILITY, FLEXIBLE FOR ENTERPRISE NETWORKS
A typical network can be equipped with multiple Frontier NETscout probes and
agents with one agent or probe connected to each individual network segment. The
agents are managed and controlled from a centrally located network management
console, called the NETscout Manager. The network management console consists of
a number of analysis tools which permit the user to request and examine data
provided by the selected agent. NETscout probes and agents are supported by
Frontier's SNMP compatible management console analysis software which runs with
SunNet Manager, IBM NetView 6000, HP Openview, AT&T and MS Windows. With
Frontier NETscout probes and agents, it is possible to have multiple clients
active so that network diagnostic functions may be performed from multiple
locations such as from primary and secondary network management centers. Also
with NETscout probes multiple segments can be monitored.
PLUG AND PLAY INSTALLATION
NETscout probes can be easily installed by simply typing in the IP address and
connecting the probe to the network. Once connected, NETscout immediately begins
collecting RMON statistics.
INDEPENDENT OPERATION
Frontier's intelligent probes/agents collect statistics continuously, even when
not communicating with the management station. Fault, performance, and
configuration information is accumulated and communicated to the management
station upon a fault or administrators request.
PROACTIVE MONITORING
NETscout intelligent probes/agents are constantly "watching" the network traffic
conditions which can lead to failures. The probes/agents can be configured to
automatically detect error conditions and log these errors upon occurrence. They
will not only notify the management station of the failure, but also provide
historical data for analysis.
VALUE ADDED DATA
Frontier's intelligent probes/agents add significant value to the data it
collects. With the Domain View(TM) architecture NETscout probes and agents can
be directed to focus and "zoom" in on a particular segment, node and type of
traffic in real time and report all RMON statistics to a management station.
This data can be viewed graphically, all from a single screen for easy diagnosis
of a problem.
MULTIPLE MANAGERS
Distributed network environments utilize multiple management stations. NETscout
probes/agents are concurrently accessible from more than one management station.
MULTISEGMENT MONITORING
Frontier's RMON based diagnostics architecture has the capability to monitor
more than one segment at a time. For example, the Model 6010 can monitor two
Ethernet segments concurrently. This provides a cost-effective way to deploy
diagnostic probes.

BREAKDOWN VOLTAGE TEST (AC)
Connect the red lead of the Hypot tester to the AC output. Connect the other end
of the same cable to the black and white leads of the power cord. Connect the
black cable of the tester to the GND terminal of the tester. Connect the other
end of the same cable to the green wire of the power cord. Connect the power
cord to the unit under test. Turn the power on by throwing the switch to the
HYPOT position. Gradually turn the voltage knob until the voltage meter
indicates 1414 volts. Keep the switch in this position for 60 seconds. If the
BREAKDOWN indicator light glows, it indicates failure and the unit has to be
rejected. Now, gradually reduce the voltage to zero. Again gradually increase
the voltage until 2121 volts is achieved. Keep the switch in that position for
one second. If the BREAKDOWN indicator light comes on, it indicates a failure
and the unit should be rejected. Now, gradually reduce the voltage down to zero.
This completes this test.
BREAKDOWN VOLTAGE TEST (DC)
Connect the red lead of the Hypot tester to the DC output. Connect the other end
of the same cable to the black and white leads of the power cord. Connect the
black cable of the tester to the GND terminal of the tester. Connect the other
end of the same cable to the green wire of the power cord. Connect the power
cord to the unit under test. Turn the power on by throwing the switch to the
HYPOT position. Gradually turn the voltage knob until the voltage meter
indicates 1414 volts. Keep the switch in this position for 60 seconds. If the
BREAKDOWN indicator light glows, it indicates failure and the unit has to be
rejected. Now, gradually reduce the voltage to zero. Again gradually increase
the voltage until 2121 volts is achieved. Keep the switch in that position for
one second. If the BREAKDOWN indicator light comes on, it indicates a failure
and the unit should be rejected. Now, gradually reduce the voltage down to zero.
This completes this test.
LEAKAGE CURRENT TEST (AC)
Connect the red lead of the Hypot tester to the AC output. Connect the other end
of the same cable to the black and white leads of the power cord. Connect the
black cable of the tester to the GND terminal of the tester. Connect the other
end of the same cable to the green wire of the power cord. Connect the power
cord to the unit under test. Connect a Digital Voltmeter across the positive and
negative terminals of the power cord. Now gradually increase the voltage to 120
V is reached. If the leakage indicator light glows during this process, the unit
should be rejected. Repeat the same test at 254V.
IMPORTANT: THE HYPOT TESTER HAS TO BE TESTED ONCE EVERY WEEK
TO ENSURE THAT THE BREAKDOWN AND LEAKAGE LEDS ARE FUNCTIONING PROPERLY.
Procedure to test LEDs
The LEDs are tested once every week to ensure that they are working. The test is
done every. Friday of the week. If the Friday is a holiday, the test will be
conducted the following Monday.
Page 10
Frontier Software - Company Confidential
For BREAKDOWN and LEAKAGE LED test:
Throw the switch on the tester to the HYPOT position. Crank up the
voltage a little to about 200-300 V. Using the exposed portion of the red and
black wires, momentarily short the outputs thereby causing an `arc'ing effect.
The BREAKDOWN LED and the LEAKAGE LED would then come on indicating that R is
working correctly.

PROCEDURE FOR BURNING EPROM - 60XX
The EPROM contains the entire agent software that runs on the system. There is
one EPROM on every PCC card. These EPROMs need to preprogrammed before they are
inserted on the card. This programming is done using an EPROM programmer. A gang
programmer is the ideal choice for such purposes.
NOTE: Use the anti-static band while assembling the system.
1) Change directory to NSAGENT\REL.
C:\Greater than cd nsagent\rel
2) Make sure that the EPROM is of the right type. The one to be used is
27C2001-15 (size: 256Kx8, speed: 120ns, manufacturer: SGS-Thomson).
3) Place the EPROM in the programmer making sure the orientation is
correct.
4) Execute the batch file REL lesser than 60xx greater than.BAT
C:\NSAGENT\REL greater than REL6010 for 6010
C:\NSAGENT\REL greater than REL6020 for 6020
C:\NSAGENT\REL greater than REL6040 for 6040
C:\NSAGENT\REL greater than REL6050 for 6050
5) Wait until the software completes the programming and verifying of
the chip. It takes about 45 minutes for the procedure to complete.
6) Remove the EPROM and place the label on it, making sure the
orientation of the label is right.
7) After the EPROM is programmed and verified, the software would wait
for another programming session to start. Repeat steps 2 and 3 and
then press lesser than CR greater than three times. This would
start the programming process for the new EPROM.
8) Repeat the above procedure for as many EPROMs as needed.
9) You have now programmed all your EPROMS. Take a break.
Page 20
Frontier Software - Company Confidential
PROCEDURE FOR BURNING NVRAM
The NVRAM is the chip that stores the serial number (and therefore the MAC
address) of the system. This information is preprogrammed into the chip using an
EPROM programmer before it is inserted into the PCC card. A unique serial number
has to be generated for each NVRAM before programming it in. Every PCC card has
one NVRAM on it. The procedure for updating and burning the NVRAM has been
automated through software. The procedure to be followed is as follows:
NOTE: Use the anti-static band while assembling the system.
1) Change Directory in the PC to NSAGENT\SERNO.
C:\greater than cd\nsagent\serno
2) Make sure the NVRAM is of the right type. The one to be used is
DS1225Y-200 (size: 8KBx8, speed: 200ns).
3) Ensure the orientation of the NVRAM in the programmer is correct.
4) Execute the batch file S.BAT.
C:\NSAGENT\SERNO greater thans
5) Note the serial number that flashes on the screen while the program
is running.
6) Remove the NVRAM from the programmer.
7) Place the label corresponding to the number that was burned in,
keeping in mind the correct orientation.
8) Repeat the procedure (2 through 8) for as many NVRAMs that need to
be burned.
9) Your NVRAMs are now ready. Take a break.

FRONTIER SOFTWARE
Xxxx-Of-Materials Procedures (6/22/95):
-- Engineering has full responsibility for approving changes to the BOM,
including the addition of new components or the creation of new component
versions. They will also identify any specific procedures for using
components (e.g. the 6020 must use the Racore card while the 6060 can use
Racore or Xxxxx).
-- WIN must get prior permission from Frontier's engineering department before
changing or modifying any chassis sub-component.
-- Receiving/Manufacturing will inform engineering whenever a new component
versions is received. The components will be segregated and will not be used
until engineering approves the use of the new component
-- Manufacturing will not build probes with any component that is not included
on the Xxxx-of-Material. To request a probe with "un-authorized" components,
see the following section on Custom Work Order Procedures.
MAKING CHANGES OR ADDITIONS TO THE BILLS OF MATERIAL:
-- Engineering will notify Charlie whenever changes are made to the BOM. AJI
must be approved by Anil. Charlie will notify manufacturing and accounting.
Changes to the BOM can be made independent of a software version release.
-- For changes that affect chassis version numbers, accounting will print
part/version number labels for WIN. The label will include a brief
description of major sub-components. WIN will label all chassis with the
correct part/version number.
-- Accounting will insure that all NEW work orders to conform to the new BOM.
-- Receiving will inspect all incoming chassis for valid Frontier part/version
numbers and will list part/version on packing lists. Receiving will inspect
other components for accepted version numbers. Un-approved components will
not be released to manufacturing and engineering will be notified
immediately.
-- Manufacturing will confirm that component part/version numbers used to build
a probe match those listed on the work order.
-- Accounting will insure that all component version listed on the work order
(including data entered by hand) are entered into the system to reflect the
part/version number of the components actually used.
-- Accounting will record the MAC address as a probe component (manufacturing
already lists the MAC address on the work order). This will allow a MAC
address look-up on the ACCESS database in addition to a serial number
lock-up.
