Introduction
The Constellation radio has an embedded SNMP agent on board. It also has a
10BASE-T Ethernet interface. This makes it easy to connect Constellation to
NetBoss, StarView or any other SNMP-based network management system.
Constellation is typically configured using the keypad. It can also be configured
using serial connection and a hyperterminal connection from a PC or laptop.
