Management
In the TrangoLINK system the MU controls most functions of its associated RU. For this reason it is important to consider that
you will manage your TrangoLINK system primarily through the MU.
Network management can be performed by three methods

Discussed in this section, below.
RU Management
Most management functions of the RU can be performed by issuing commands from the MU. Presented below are a few
examples of these commands:
Change the RUs IP, subnet, and gateway:
re ipconfig <new ip> <new RUbnet> <new gateway>
Example:
re ipconfig 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.1
A complete description of these commands and many others can be found in Appendix – Command Set Summary.
Managing MU from RU side of Network
As a security feature, TrangoLINK was designed to prevent users on the RU side of the network from accessing the MU via
telnet or HTTP interface. If it is necessary for network administrators to access a MU from the RU side of the network the user
must first telnet into a router, or similar device, located behind the MU. Then telnet from the router into the MU.
SNMP
TrangoLINK supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) for network management. Network management
consists of the following 4 categories: configuration, accounting, alarm, monitoring, and control. These capabilities allow the
network operator to provide superior services through higher network availability and integrated accounting system. For more
information on SNMP and its uses, you can visit http://www.faqs.org/faqs/snmp-faq/
.
The Trango SNMP solution supports MIB-II (system only) and the Trango proprietary Management Information Base (MIB).
The SNMP agent resides on the MU ONLY. It gathers health and status, performance statistics from all RUs locally, then
responds back to the SNMP manager upon request.
Users interested in using the SNMP functionality should review the entire TrangoLINK MIB for a complete understanding of
its features.
The following is an overview of a few of the more commonly used SNMP objects in the TrangoLINK system.
Objects for Monitoring and Control
su Bandwidth Monitoring

period specified by suStatisticsSamplePeriod (1 ~ 60 minutes).
??
suRfTxAvgThroughputLog
- Average payload data throughput (in Kbits/sec) transmitted on the RF link over the
period specified by suStatisticsSamplePeriod (1 ~ 60 minutes).
??
suRfInOctets
