Performing initialization: Startup Profile
The Startup Profile is a template that can be edited using Microsoft Excel. It is used to accelerate
the initial installation programming of system-level parameters. It helps bring the BCM50 element
to a basic operational and ready-to-customize state without using either BCM Element Manager or
Telset administration.
The administrator must fill out the Startup Profile template, save it onto a USB storage device and
insert the storage device into the USB port of the BCM50 before the initial start-up. On start-up the
BCM50 reads the information, and starts up with the correct system parameters and feature
licensing already in place.
Some of the parameters included in the Startup Profile are:
system name
system profile such as country, telephony template and key voicemail attributes
system IP parameters
system level telephony attributes that automatically create default system DNs
feature licensing (through automated application of the keycode file)
user accounts
modem status
For detailed information on the Startup Profile, see the BCM50 Installation and Maintenance
Guide (NN40020-302).
Monitoring BCM50: BCM Monitor
BCM Monitor is a monitoring and diagnostics tool that can monitor BCM systems. It is installed
as part of the BCM Element Manager installation. See Chapter 10, “BCM50 Utilities,” on page
245 for information about the BCM Monitor for BCM50.
Managing BCM50 remotely with SNMP
Simple Network Management Protocol is a standard for network management. BCM50 supports a
number of standard MIBs, including:
MIB II RFC 1213
Entity MIB RFC 2737
