iConfig is an in-band utility created by IMC Networks, used for SNMP
configuration for IMC Networks’ SNMP-manageable devices. iConfig can:
• set an IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
• define community strings and SNMP traps
In addition to the above functions, iConfig offers an authorized IP
address system and access restriction to MIB groups supported by IMC
Networks manageable devices. These extra layers of security do not affect
SNMP compatibility.
iConfig can also be used to upload new versions of the system software
and new MIB information. It also offers diagnostic capabilities for faster
resolution of technical support issues. iConfig version 1.4 or above MUST
be used for PROM updates. HubControl32 and previous versions of
iConfig will not work. iConfig works with the following platforms:
• Windows 98™ • Windows NT™ • Windows 2000™ • Windows XP™
In addition to being included with the Windows version of iView²,
iConfig is also available as a standalone application. (Windows 98 users
must use the standalone version of iConfig.) Both applications are includ-
ed on the iView² CD or can be downloaded from the IMC website. For
information regarding the use of iConfig, refer to the iConfig help file
included with iConfig.
