Introduction 1-5
v1.0, September 2009
Easy Installation and Management
You can install, configure, and operate the STM within minutes after connecting it to the network.
The following features simplify installation and management tasks:
• Browser-based management. Browser-based configuration allows you to easily configure
the STM from almost any type of personal computer, such as Windows, Macintosh, or Linux.
A user-friendly Setup Wizard is provided and online help documentation is built into the
browser-based Web Management Interface.
• SNMP. The STM supports the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) to let you
monitor and manage log resources from an SNMP-compliant system manager. The SNMP
system configuration lets you change the system variables for MIB2.
• Diagnostic functions. The STM incorporates built-in diagnostic functions such as a Ping
utility, Trace-route utility, DNS lookup utility, and remote restart.
• Remote management. The STM allows you to log in to the Web Management Interface from
a remote location on the Internet. For security, you can limit remote management access to a
specified remote IP address or range of addresses.
• Visual monitoring. The STM’s front panel LEDs provide an easy way to monitor its status
and activity.
