3.1 INTRODUCTION
The transceiver’s embedded management system is accessible through
the
COM1
(serial) port, the
LAN
(Ethernet) port, and using over-the-air
Ethernet. Telnet, SSH, HTTP/HTTPS, and SNMP are the
Ethernet-based interfaces. Essentially, the same capabilities are avail-
able through any of these paths.
For support of SNMP software, a set of MIB files is available for down-
load from the GE MDS Web site at
www.GEmds.com . An overview of
SNMP commands can be found at SNMP Agent Configuration section
on Page 58 of this manual.
The transceiver’s Management System and its functions are divided into
seven functional groups as listed below.
• Section 3.3, BASIC OVERVIEW OF OPERATION (beginning
on Page 42)
• Section 3.4, CONFIGURING NETWORK PARAMETERS
(beginning on Page 45)
• Section 3.5, RADIO CONFIGURATION (beginning on Page
65)
• Section 3.7, SECURITY CONFIGURATION MENU (beginning
on Page 92)
• Section 3.13, PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION (beginning on
Page 140)
• Section 3.12, MAINTENANCE/TOOLS MENU (beginning on
Page 123)
Each of these sections has a focus that is reflected in its heading. The
section you are now reading provides information on connecting to the
Management System, how to navigate through it, how it is structured,
and how to perform top-level configuration tasks.
Figure 3-1 on Page 34
shows a top-level view of the Management System (MS).
3.1.1 Differences in the User Interfaces
Although there are slight differences in navigation among the user inter-
faces, the content is very similar. You will notice a few differences in
capabilities as the communications tool is driven by limitations of the
access channel.
Figure 3-2 and Figure 3-3 on Page 35 show examples of
the Starting Information Screen as seen through a console terminal and
a web-browser, respectively.
