Setting Up Management and Communication
Options available from the Management and Communication menu are described
in the following sections:
Configuring Node IP Information
Configuring Management PVCs
Configuring General SNMP Management
Configuring Telnet and/or FTP Sessions
Configuring SNMP NMS Security
Configuring SNMP Traps
Configuring Ethernet Management
Configuring the Communication Port
Configuring the COM Port to Support an External Modem
Configuring Node IP Information
Select Node IP to display, add, or change the information necessary to support
general IP communications for the node (see Table 4-18, Node IP Options). When
deploying units to remote sites, minimally configure the Node IP Address and
Subnet Mask.
The Node IP set of configuration options includes a troubleshooting (TS)
management link feature that service providers can use to isolate network device
problems and allows unit link access via Telnet or FTP. Link troubleshooting is
essentially transparent to customer operations because no alarms or SNMP traps
are generated.
The TS Management Link option is initially enabled.
The unit ships from the factory
with a TS Management PVC already configured (e.g., 0,35). Any valid network
Management PVC created on a standard DLCI can be used. An assigned security
level can control access and is recommended.
When a DLCI has been defined as the troubleshooting management link, the
link is identified in the status field at the bottom of the Management PVC Entry
screen with the message:
Note: This PVC has been designated as the TS Access
Management Link.
Select Node IP from the Management and Communication menu.
