C.6 IR-IP Management Utility
General Operating Procedures
The IR-IP interface module is managed via a simple, menu-driven utility that uses a
basic terminal user interface. A typical screen is shown in Figure C-4.
As seen in Figure C-4, each screen has a header that identifies the device being
configured and its logical name, assigned by the user, followed by the running
software revision and date. The bottom line of the screen displays prompts that
guide you in the execution of the various activities.
Use the following general procedures to perform the desired activity:
To change a parameter or to select a menu item, type the corresponding line
number.
For a parameter, which has a discrete set of values, the parameter values are
enclosed in brackets [ ]. To select a new value, press the spacebar to scroll
among the available values until the desired value is displayed, and then press
<Enter>
to select the displayed value.
To enter a value which requires free text entry, type in the desired string and
then press <Enter>. Use backspace to erase the current string.
After all the parameters have been selected, a prompt appears, requesting that
you confirm the changes.
For proper display of the screens, you must:
Select a fixed-pitch system font for the display. Use your operating system
documentation to find how to select a proper font.
Configure the Telnet utility to use VT-100 terminal emulation.
Starting a Management Utility
The management utility is started automatically when Telnet communication is
established. If password protection is enabled (see the Management Access Menu
section below), you will be prompted to enter the Telnet password. The opening
screen, which appears after the Telnet session activation, is the IR-IP Main menu
(see Figure C-4).
