Chapter 1 AT-CV5M02 Management Card The sections in this chapter are: “The Converteon Product Line” on page 20 “AT-CV5M01 and AT-CV5M02 Management Cards” on page 21 “AT-S99 Management Software” on page 22 “Console Port” on page 22 “10/100Base-TX Port” on page 22 “IP Address Configuration” on page 23 “Event Log” on page 23 “Activity Monitor” on page 23 “Syslog Client” on page 23 “Network Time Protocol Client” on page 24 “Manager and Operator Accounts” on page 24
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card The Converteon Product Line The Converteon product line consists of modular fiber optic media converters that connect Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet networks across distances of up to forty kilometers.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide AT-CV5M01 and AT-CV5M02 Management Cards The AT-CV5M02 Management Card and its predecessor, the AT-CV5M01 Management Card, support many of the same features and management functions. Both cards let you locally or remotely monitor the status of the AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards, configure the operating modes of the line cards, and adjust the port parameters and the OAMbased features on the AT-CM Line Cards.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card AT-S99 Management Software The AT-CV5M02 Management Card uses the AT-S99 Management Software. This program comes pre-installed on the card with default values for all of the operating parameters. New versions of the software can be downloaded onto the card using XMODEM or Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP), as explained in Chapter 11, ”Uploading and Downloading Files” on page 271.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide IP Address Configuration To support the functions listed in “10/100Base-TX Port” the management card has to be assigned an IP address configuration consisting of an IP address, a subnet mask, and possibly a default gateway address. The management card can have only one IP address configuration. The configuration can be assigned manually or supplied by a DHCP or BOOTP server on your network.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card Network Time Protocol Client The management card has a Network Time Protocol (NTP) client for setting its date and time from an NTP server on your network or the Internet. The card adds the date and time to the event messages stored in the event log and to the SNMP traps sent to SNMP trap receivers.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide Management Access There are four ways to manage the Converteon product: Local Management Local management Remote Telnet management Remote web browser management Remote SNMP management The AT-CV5M02 Management Card has an RS-232 Console port for local (out-of-band) management. This type of management has to be performed at the chassis, hence the term “local.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card Redundant Management Cards You can install two AT-CV5M02 Management Cards in the AT-CV5000 Chassis. The second card functions as a backup card should the primary management card fail or have to be removed from the chassis. When the AT-CV5000 Chassis has two management cards, one of the cards functions as the active card. The other is placed in a standby mode. Your local and remote management sessions have to be performed through the active card.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide All of your local and remote management sessions have to be conducted through the active management card The RDY LED on the active card will be on. The LED will be off on the standby card. The standby management card automatically transitions to the active state in about 20 seconds if the active card fails or is removed from the chassis or reset.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card Access to Your Network The management card must be able to access your network if it will be performing any of these functions: Supporting remote Telnet, web browser, or SNMP management Sending event messages to a syslog server Setting the date and time from a Network Time Protocol server Sending SNMP traps to trap receivers. Uploading or downloading files to a TFTP server.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide Configuration Files The management card and the media converter line cards store their parameter settings in a series of configuration files. These files enable the cards to retain their settings even when they are removed from the chassis or when the chassis is powered off. AT-CM Line Cards The parameter settings of the AT-CM Line Cards are stored in the configuration files in flash memory on the cards.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card sends the change to the designated card over the backplane of the chassis. 2. The line card implements the change and updates its configuration file in flash memory so that it retains the change even if you remove the line card or power off the chassis. 3. The management card automatically updates its master configuration file in DRAM the next time it polls the line card, which it does every few seconds. 4.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide 2. After the line card initializes its software, it queries for a management card over the backplane of the chassis. 3. If the chassis does not have a management card, the line card configures its operating parameters using the settings in its configuration file in flash memory. 4. If the chassis has a management card, the following occurs: a. The management card examines its master configuration file for the auto-copy setting for the line card’s slot. b.
Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card instructions can be found in “Restoring the Last Saved Configuration” on page 181. Redundant Management Cards You have to configure a remote line card for remote peer management before you can remotely restore a previous configuration. For instructions, refer to “Configuring the AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards for the OAM-based Features” on page 74.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide (The incrementing number at the bottom of the screen is the ID number of the parameter setting the active card is transmitting to the standby card. All parameter settings have unique ID numbers. The number can be ignored.) After the management card has sent the entire master configuration file, it displays “Succeeded.” To resume managing the chassis, press any key.

Chapter 2 AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards The sections in this chapter are: “AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards” on page 36 “AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards” on page 40 “Operating Modes” on page 42 “OAM-based Features” on page 46 35
Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards The AT-CM Line Cards are two-port Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet media converters that transfer network traffic between twisted pair cable and fiber optic cable. Most of the line cards have fiber optic ports with fixed operating distances. However, two of the cards can be customized for specific distances because they have slots for SFP transceivers. These line cards can be used as unmanaged devices.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide Table 1 lists the line cards in this series. Table 1. AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards Line Card AT-CM201 AT-CM202 AT-CM202/1 AT-CM202/2 AT-CM2KOS AT-CM212A/1 AT-CM212B/1 Type of Port/Slot Connector Cable Speed Maximum Distance Fiber Optic Dual ST 50/125 or 62.5/125 micron multi-mode 100 Mbps 2 kilometers (1.24 miles) Twisted pair RJ-45 Twisted-pair 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps 100 meters (328 feet) Fiber Optic Dual SC 50/125 or 62.

AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide The AT-CM70S Line Card is an exception to this rule because it has an RS-232 port for local management of the T1/E1 ports when the card is installed in a chassis that does not have a management card. For further information, refer to Chapter 7, ”Configuring the T1/E1 Ports on the AT-CM70S Media Converter Line Card” on page 191.
Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards The AT-CV Line Cards are two-port media converters. They have a twisted pair port that connects to a local Ethernet network and a fiber optic port that connects to the remote network over either single-mode or multimode fiber optic cable. Most of these cards have fiber optic ports that have fixed operating distances.

Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards Operating Modes The AT-CM Line Cards support these operating modes: Link Test mode MissingLink mode Smart MissingLink mode OAM visible mode OAM bypass mode The AT-CV Line Cards support these operating modes: Link Test mode MissingLink mode Smart MissingLink mode The operating modes are used to determine the status of the links on the ports on the line cards, to troubleshoot a link problem, or, in the case of the AT-CM Lin
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide MissingLink Mode The two ports of a media converter line card operating in this mode share their “link” status with each other so that both ports on a line card and, consequently, the network devices connected to the ports, are always aware of a change to the status of the link of one of the ports on the card.
Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards and their status in the management software will be Online. If one or both ports cannot establish a link, then the Link LEDs will be off and their status in the management software will be Offline. This operating mode is useful when the network devices connected to the ports of a line card can react to a loss of a link on a port, such as managed Fast Ethernet switches running SNMP or a spanning tree protocol.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide running a spanning tree protocol, the protocol might become confused as the status of the device’s link to the media converter constantly changes. OAM Visible Mode OAM is a set of tools and utilities for remotely monitoring, testing, and troubleshooting a network. It provides network operators the ability to monitor the condition of the network and determine the location of the failing links or fault conditions.
Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards OAM-based Features The AT-CM Line Cards support five OAM-based features on their fiber optic ports. Some of the features are part of the IEEE 802.3ah standard and others are specific to this product.

Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards Remote Updates of the AT-S73 Management Software Allied Telesis may periodically release new versions of the AT-S73 Management Software for the AT-CM Media Converter Line Cards. New software can be downloaded to remote media converter line cards through the OAM-based remote peer management feature. This saves you from having to visit the remote sites where the line cards are located when you want to update their management software.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide OAM loopback tests are used to test the quality of the fiber optic connection that serves as the link between two AT-CM Line Cards or between an AT-CM Line Card and another OAM-compliant device. Test packets are exchanged by the line cards over the fiber optic link on Port A. The test packets are generated by the local line card in the Converteon chassis that has the AT-CV5M02 Management Card.
Chapter 2: AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards Dying Gasp Feature Dying gasp is a signal that AT-CM Line Cards in the AT-CV1203 Chassis transmit if the chassis has a power failure. This feature can make it easier to identify power supply or power source problems at remote sites.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide 1. The remote AT-CV1203 Chassis loses power on one power supply. 2. The management card sends the 1st failure signal to the AT-CM Line Card over the backplane. 3. The remote AT-CM Card sends the signal to its local counterpart in the AT-CV5000 Chassis. 5. The management card enters the event in the event log and sends an SNMP trap. AT-CV5000 4. The local AT-CM Card sends the signal over the backplane to the management card. FAN1 PS1 RDY Figure 8.

Chapter 3: Starting a Management Session Saving Your Configuration Changes This section explains the save commands in the AT-S99 Management Software on the AT-CV5M02 Management Card. These commands are used to update the master configuration file in flash memory on the management card with your changes to the parameter settings to the cards. When you issue one of these commands, the management card copies all or part of its master configuration file in DRAM to flash memory for permanent storage.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide The same commands in the web browser windows are found in the Files tab of the Configuration window, shown Figure 14. Figure 14. Save Commands in the Files Tab There are also save commands in the Line Card Configuration menus of the individual local and remote line cards. These menus are part of a series of menus that are used to configure the parameters on the line cards. The example in Figure 16 is from a local line card.
Chapter 3: Starting a Management Session The web browser windows also have this command for local and remote line cards. Figure 16 shows the location of the command in the web browser windows for a local line card. Figure 16.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide Save Line Card Configuration (menus) and Save Current Configuration (web browser windows) - These commands make it easier for you to save your changes after configuring the individual local or remote AT-CM Line Cards. Rather than having to return to the Main Menu or the Files tab after configuring a line card, you can save your changes with these commands instead.
Chapter 3: Starting a Management Session The functions of these commands are given here: Copy Active Card Configuration to Standby Card - This command copies the temporary master configuration file from DRAM in the active management card to DRAM in the standby card. Save Current Configuration of Standby Card - This command instructs the standby card to copy its master configuration file from DRAM to flash memory for permanent storage.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide What to Configure First on the AT-CV5M02 Management Card This section has a few suggestions on what to configure on the management card during the initial management session. The first management session has to be a local session from the Console port on the card. For instructions on how to start a local management session, refer to “Starting a Local Management Session” on page 58.
Chapter 3: Starting a Management Session Assigning an IP Address Configuration and Changing the Community Strings The management card has to be assigned an IP address configuration to perform these management functions: Remote Telnet, web browser, or SNMP management Sending event messages to a syslog server Setting the date and time from a Network Time Protocol server Sending SNMP traps to trap receivers. Uploading or downloading files to a TFTP server. Pinging a remote device.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide A default gateway address is needed if the management card will be communicating with a network device, like a TFTP server or a syslog server, on a different subnet. The address has to be a member of the same subnet as the card’s IP address and should specify the first hop to reaching the remote subnet. 5. To activate the DHCP client to assign the IP address from a DHCP server on the network, select Enable DHCP.
Chapter 3: Starting a Management Session 3. From the System Configuration Menu, select System Clock Configuration. 4. To set the date and time manually, do the following: a.

Chapter 10 Configuring SNMPv3 This chapter provides a description of the AT-S99 implementation of the SNMPv3 protocol. In addition, the chapter contains procedures that allow you to create and modify SNMPv3 entities.
Chapter 10: Configuring SNMPv3 SNMPv3 Overview The SNMPv3 protocol builds on the existing SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c protocol implementation. In SNMPv3, User-based Security Model (USM) authentication is implemented along with encryption, allowing you to configure a secure SNMP environment. In addition, SNMP terminology changes in the SNMPv3 protocol. In the SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c protocols, the terms agent and manager are used. An agent is an SNMP user while a manager is an SNMP host.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide SNMPv3 Authentication Protocols The SNMPv3 protocol supports two authentication protocols—HMACMD5-96 (MD5) and HMAC-SHA-96 (SHA). Both MD5 and SHA use an algorithm to generate a message digest. Each authentication protocol authenticates a user by checking the message digest. In addition, both protocols use keys to perform authentication.

AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide address and which portion represents the node address. In a similar way, the subtree mask further refines the subtree view and enables you to restrict a MIB view to a specific row of the OID MIB table. You need a thorough understanding of the OID MIB table to define a subtree mask. SNMPv3 Storage Types Each SNMPv3 table entry has its own storage type.
Chapter 10: Configuring SNMPv3 SNMPv3 Tables The SNMPv3 configuration is neatly divided into configuring SNMPv3 user information and configuring the message notification. You must configure all seven tables to successfully configure the SNMPv3 protocol. You use the following tables for user configuration: Configure SNMPv3 User Table Configure SNMPv3 View Table Configure SNMPv3 Access Table Configure SNMPv3 Group Table First, you create a user in the Configure SNMPv3 User Table.
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide After you configure an SNMPv3 user, you need to configure SNMPv3 message notification. This configuration is accomplished with the following tables: Configure SNMPv3 Notify Table Configure SNMPv3 Target Address Table Configure SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table You start the message notification configuration by defining the type of message you want to send with the SNMPv3 Notify Table.
Chapter 10: Configuring SNMPv3 For a more detailed description of the SNMPv3 Tables, see the following subsections: “SNMPv3 User Table” on page 244 “SNMPv3 View Table” on page 244 “SNMPv3 Access Table” on page 244 “SNMPv3 Group Table” on page 245 “SNMPv3 Notify Table” on page 245 “SNMPv3 Target Address Table” on page 245 “SNMPv3 Target Parameters Table” on page 245 SNMPv3 User Table The Configure SNMPv3 User Table menu allows you to create an SNMPv3 user and provides the options
AT-S73 and AT-S99 Management Software User’s Guide group members to view the specified portion of the OID MIB table. The Write View allows group members to write to, or modify, the MIBs in the specified MIB view. The Notify View allows group members to send trap messages defined by the MIB view. Lastly, you can configure a storage type for this table entry which allows you to save this view to flash memory.
Chapter 10: Configuring SNMPv3 SNMPv3 Configuration Example 246 You may want to have two classes of SNMPv3 users—Managers and Operators. In this scenario, you would configure one group, called Managers, with full access privileges. Then you would configure a second group, called Operators, with monitoring privileges only. For a detailed example of this configuration, see Appendix B, ”SNMPv3 Configuration Examples” on page 291.
