Assigning TCP/IP Information
To modify the Saved Parameter Values (i.e., assign IP address and subnet
mask), press
I
. Then, enter the IP address and subnet mask for the connected
device, pressing
Enter
after each. A default gateway can also be assigned, or
press
Enter
to skip. When finished, press
Enter
, then type
reboot
for changes to
take effect. The Saved Values and Current Values areas should both display the
changes made.
Creating Community Strings
Community strings add a level of security to a network. The default commu-
nity string is named “public” and has read/write access. “Public” should be
replaced with custom communities strings such as one with read-only access (for
general use), the other with read/write access (for the administrator). Create a
new community string by typing
C
on the main configuration screen. Enter the
name of the new community (up to 16 characters, no spaces) and press
Enter
.
Then, type one of the following to assign the community string’s access rights:
•
R
= read-only access •
W
= read/write access •
Enter
= abort
After entering
R
or
W,
press
Enter
. When finished, press
Enter
, and reboot.
Deleting Community Strings
To delete all community strings and start over, press
U
. At the “Are you sure
you want to delete all future strings?”prompt, press
Y
to proceed,
N
to abort.
Then, press
Enter
.
This function will delete ALL community strings. To selectively delete com-
munity strings, use iConfig to configure the device.
Assigning Trap Destinations
Traps are sent by the manageable device to a management PC when a cer-
tain event takes place. To enter a trap destination, press
T
. At the “Enter a New
IP Address.” prompt, enter the appropriate IP address and press
Enter
. Then,
type the name of the community string (that the destination device has been
configured to accept) and press
Enter
. This function enables ALL of the devices’s
traps. To selectively activate and de-activate traps, use iConfig for configuration.
Supported traps include: Link Down, Link Up, Cold Start, Warm Start and
Authentication Failure. When deployed in pairs, the iMcV-FiberLinX also sup-
ports the following traps: Remote Unit Lost, Remote Unit Back Online, Far End
TX Link On and Far End TX Link Off.
