Managed Modules
To manage iMcV-DS3/E3/STS modules, an SNMP agent must be present; the
iMediaChassis requires an SNMP management module. For a managed environment,
first manually configure all of the desired DIP Switch selectable features to match
what will be configured through the SNMP Management Module.
Use the Graphical User Interface (GUI) to enable features by using the iView

SNMP
management software. In a managed chassis, the software settings take priority over
the SNMP enabled feature DIP Switch settings. Make sure that the software settings
match the desired configuration requirements for the installation.
NOTE
Before installing the modules, they must be configured for Host/Remote via the DIP
Switches. The Master/Slave condition requires this configuration:
S1-10: ON Remote Unit Enabled (only at the REMOTE end) (Remote)
S1-10: OFF Remote Unit Disabled (only at the LOCAL end) (Host)
iView² Management Software
iView² is the B&B Electronics management software designed specifically for the B&B
Electronics “iMcV” family of modules. It features a
GUI
and gives network managers
the ability to monitor and control the manageable B&B Electronics products.
iView² is available in several versions, including WebServer version 3.0, and can also
function as a snap-in module for HP OpenView Network Node Manager and other
third party SNMP Management software.
iView

supports the following platforms:
Windows 2000
Windows XP
Windows Vista
Windows 7
Please see the
SNMP
Management Module installation guide for software
configuration options.

Unmanaged Modules
Before installing the module in an unmanaged chassis, including IE-MediaChassis
series and MediaChassis series, manually configure all of the desired DIP Switch
selectable features. In an unmanaged configuration, none of the DIP Switch settings
can be overridden by software.
DIP Switches
The iMcV-DS3/E3/STS DIP Switches are located on S1 and S2 on the PCB. The S2
DIP Switches are factory configured and must not be moved. The S1 DIP Switches
provide control over the available iMcV-DS3/E3/STS features.
The location of the S1 DIP Switches is displayed in the following diagram:
