Getting Started with Device Manager
The Java Device Manager (JDM) software is a Graphical User Interface (GUI)
that allows you to manage a standalone switch or a stack. JDM (also referred to as
Device Manager) provides options found in other management tools such as
management of VLANs and MultiLink Trunks, and displaying and printing of
statistics in graph format.
To use Device Manager, you must have network connectivity to a management
station running Device Manager on one of the supported platforms. You must also
assign an IP address to the switch or stack.

Installing Device Manager
The JDM software is provided on the device software
CD as a self-extracting
executable file, and is also available from the Nortel web site. This chapter
provides instructions for installing the JDM software in a Windows*, UNIX*, or
Linux* environment.
The Java Runtime Environment (JRE) is bundled with the JDM software and does
not require a separate installation.
For details on installing JDM, refer to the following sections:
