3.3 TCP/IP Configuration
General
The Network Management modes that require TCP/IP communications must
first have all TCP/IP configuration settings completed while in the "Terminal Mode".
Once the settings are completed, the FRM301 SNMP card can be accessed by Telnet,
the Windows GUI or via standard SNMP protocol.
Two Step Configuration
The configuration process is broken down into two logical steps. First the SNMP
agent (the FRM301 SNMP card itself) must be configured with an IP address, subnet
mask and gateway IP. Second, the agent must be told who the network manager is, ie.
its IP address. Included in the second step are the community string settings and IP
address to send the unsolicited trap messages (alarm messages).
Configuration Process
To configure the card for use by SNMP, certain parameters must be set. They are:
a. The SNMP card (agent) needs its own IP address.
b. The SNMP card needs to know the IP address of the management workstation.
c. The community string must be set.
d. The SNMP card's subnet mask can be set.
