Managing the DECserver 90L+
Managing the DECserver 90L+ includes:
•
Examining port and server parameters and network counters
•
Setting port parameters
•
Setting server name, prompt, and zeroing counters
•
Security
–
Setting and clearing authorized mode
–
Enabling and disabling manager mode
–
Changing the password
Local Management
Local management of the DECserver 90L+ is performed with a terminal
connected to one of its eight ports and using the SET, SHOW, and RESET
commands of the DECserver 90L+.
Remote Management
The DECserver 90L+ can be managed from a remote node on the network using
MOP console carrier. Once the MOP console carrier session is established, the
SET and SHOW commands are used to examine and set the various port and
server parameters. The RESET command is used to reset ports and the server to
the power-up state.
Accessing MOP from VMS
On a VMS operating system, the MOP console carrier is included as part of the
network control program (NCP) facility, which requires a DECnet license.
You do not need increased user privileges to use NCP to establish a console
carrier session. To establish a console carrier session, you must know the:
•
Ethernet address of the DECserver 90L+ to be managed
•
Ethernet name of the circuit that contains the DECserver 90L+
The Ethernet address should be on the label on the DECserver 90L+ front panel.
The circuit name is needed because a VMS operating system may have more
than one Ethernet interface. Table 4–1 is a partial list of Ethernet circuit names,
based on system type.
