Installing Device Manager software
Java Device Manager (JDM) is an SNMP-based graphical user interface
(GUI) tool designed to manage single devices. To use Java Device Manager
(also referred to in this manual as Device Manager), you must have network
connectivity to a management station running JDM in one of the supported
environments.
The Device Manager software is provided on the software CD as a
self-extracting executable file. Device Manager is also available from the
Nortel web site. This chapter provides instructions for installing the Device
Manager software in a Windows or UNIX environment.
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is bundled with the Device Manager
software and does not require a separate installation.

JDM installation notes
The following installation notes apply to both Windows and UNIX:
•
If you have other Nortel switches in your network and are running earlier
versions of Device Manager software, you must install the newest
version of Device Manager to access the switches running the latest
software.
•
Prior to upgrading Device Manager, either uninstall your previous
version of the Device Manager software, or install the new software to a
different directory. (You can have multiple versions of Device Manager
stored on your PC or UNIX machine, provided that each version is
stored in a separate directory).
