About This Chapter
The DS.11 Configuration Utility is an SNMP-based utility that provides a
consistent view of the wireless network. The system administrator can use the
DS.11 Configuration Utility to control a large number of DS.11 units from a single
location. The Configuration Utility can be used to manage BU-DS.11 and
RB-DS.11 units as well as other members of the BreezeNET DS.11 family including
the WBS, WBC, AP-DS.11 and SA-DS.11. The description in this manual, however,
is limited to management and configuration of BU-DS.11 and RB-DS.11 units.
