MDS entraNET 900 System Guide (Preliminary)
15
The MDS entraNET 900 is equipped with an embedded management
system that is accessible through different data interfaces. These include
the
COM1 (
serial) port, the
LAN (
Ethernet) port and over the wireless net-
work. Essentially the same capabilities are available through either of
these paths.
You have a choice of using three common communications tools—a
computer terminal-emulator through the
COM1
port, Telnet, or a Web
browser through the
LAN
(Ethernet) port. You must know the unit IP
address and the entraNET Management System password and user
name to use the LAN port access.
The transceiver also supports SNMP-based management tools such as
Microwave Data Systems’ NETview MS™. NETview MS provides a net-
work-wide management tool using a graphical user interface (GUI). For
support of other software, a set of MIB files is available for download
from the Microwave Data Systems’ Web site at
data.com/service/technical/support/downloads/
SNMP commands can be found at
SNMP Configuration
section on
Page 28
.
The entraNET Management System and its functions are divided in this
guide into five functional groups that are listed below.
•
Section 2.3, CONFIGURING NETWORK PARAMETERS
(beginning on Page 27)
•
Section 2.4, CONFIGURING RADIO PARAMETERS (begin-
ning on Page 28)
•
Section 2.5, CONFIGURING THE SERIAL INTERFACES
(beginning on Page 32)
•
Section 2.7, PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION (beginning on
Page 44)
•
Section 2.8, MAINTENANCE (beginning on Page 58)
Each of these sections has a focus that is reflected in its heading. The
section you are now in will provide you with information on connecting
to the entraNET Management System, how to navigate through it, and
how it is structured, and how to perform some top-level configuration
tasks.
NOTE:
Parameter options/range, and any default value, will be
displayed at the end of the field description between square
brackets. [range, options or description; default]
