Managing Remote Access Concentrators Using Annex Manager
Chapter 2 Creating and Using RAC Lists
2-2
To create a RAC list:
1. In the Main window, enter a RAC name or IP address in the Annex
field ( Figure 2-2 ).
You can enter a RAC name or its IP address. If you add a RAC to
this list using one identifier (e.g., a name) and repeat the process
using the other identifier (e.g., the IP address) for the same RAC,
a message informs you that the RAC is already included in the list.
If you enter a device with which Annex Manager cannot
communicate using SNMP,
NOT REACHABLE
displays in place of
the RAC type. If you enter a device name that responds to SNMP
but is not a RAC, or if you enter the name of an unknown device,
a warning message informs you that the device cannot be added to
the list.

2. Enter the RAC SNMP community string in the
Community
field.
The default string for the RAC is
public
. This string appears
automatically if you do not complete this field.
If you enter a valid RAC name and an incorrect SNMP
community string, the RAC appears in the list as
NOT
REACHABLE
.
3. Click
Add
or press Enter.
The RAC name appears in the list box. All names appear in the
order in which you enter them.
