Using Multiport Management Software at
Remote NMS
The LED indicators available on the physical METTF10xx or MFETF10xx
Multichannel Media Converter also can be displayed graphically at a
remote network management station (NMS), using installed TRANSITION
Networks Multiport Management Software.
The Multiport Management Software brings up a drawing that represents
each selected managed METTF10xx or MFETF10xx Multichannel Media
Converter, identified by IP address. “LED indicators” represent physical
LEDs on physical METTF10xx or MFETF10xx devices. The “LEDs” are
"illuminated" to indicate the state of the METTF10xx or MFETF10xx at the
time of the last Multiport Management Software polling.
In addition, METTF10xx or MFETF10xx Multichannel Media Converter
status information is available in text format.
To bring up the Multiport Management Software graphical display for a
