System Administration
This chapter provides all the instructions and procedures necessary for system administrators to
manage the AG 5500 on the customer’s network (after a successful installation).

Choosing a Remote Connection
Once installed and configured for the customer’s network, the AG 5500 can be managed and
administered remotely with any of the following interface options:
z
Using the Web Management Interface (WMI) - Provides a powerful and flexible Web
interface for network administrators.
z
Using an SNMP Manager - Allows remote “Windows” management using an SNMP
client manager (for example, HP OpenView). However, before you can use SNMP to
access the AG 5500, you must set up the appropriate SNMP communities. For more
information, refer to
“Managing the SNMP Communities {SNMP}” on page 140 .
z
Using a Telnet Client
Choose an interface connection, based on your preference.
Now that the AG 5500 has been installed and configured successfully, this User’s
Guide moves away from the Command Line Interface (CLI) and documents the
AG 5500 from the Web Management Interface (WMI) viewpoint.
To use any of the remote connections (Web, SNMP, or Telnet), the network
interface IP address for the AG 5500 must be established (you did this during the
installation process).
