SmartCell 6A000 and SNMP A Client for SNMP Mana

B.3 A CLIENT FOR SNMP MANAGEMENT
Your SmartCell 6A000 must have a connection to the NMS before it can be managed. The default connection between
the SmartCell 6A000 and the NMS is the SmartCell 6A000 Ethernet interface. An NMS can also manage the SmartCell
6A000 through one of its ATM ports if the SmartCell 6A000 has a client connection into a VLAN or emulated LAN.
Note that the SmartCell 6A000 itself is not reachable through ATM until a client for the switch is created and
participates as a member of a VLAN or ELAN. Your NMS uses the switches client address to access and manage the
switch.
To create a client for the switch, use the
add IPATMClient command for VLANs, and the add LANEClient command
for emulated LANs.
Use the
set MyNmAddr command to tell the switch which interface to use when communicating with your NMS. For
detailed information about these commands, see the SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual.
B.4 CONSOLE COMMANDS THAT AFFECT THE
