Description and reference
TMA
TMA (Total Maintenance/Management Application) is a free Windows software
package with a comprehensive graphical user interface that enables you to control
the OneAccess products completely. I.e. to access their configuration attributes
and look at status, performance and alarm information.
For more information, refer to:
• the TMA Quick Start Guide (
), this will set the user on the right track as
quickly as possible, when starting with and using TMA.
• the TMA user manual (
), for a detailed and extensive explanation about
TMA and its use.
TMA Element
Management
TMA Element Management is a management application designed to monitor
large numbers of OneAccess devices. It combines the easy to use graphical inter-
face of the stand-alone version of TMA with an event-logging application called the
Element Viewer.
Refer to the TMA Element Management manual (
) for more information.
TMA CLI
TMA CLI (TMA Command Line Interface) enables you to use its commands in
scripts in order to automate management actions. This is particularly useful in
large networks. TMA CLI is a complementary product to TMA and TMA Element
Management.
Refer to the TMA CLI manual (
) for more information.
CLI
CLI is also a Command Line Interface, although not so extensive as TMA CLI.
Experienced users who are familiar with the syntax can access the TDRE devices
more quickly than with TMA.
Refer to the Maintenance tools manual (
) for more information.
Web Interface
The web user interface is by default a TMA like GUI. The web GUI can also be cus-
tomised.
Refer to the Maintenance tools manual (
) for more information.
Note that the HTTP interfaces are not only available on port 80, but also on
port 8080. This allows connecting to the HTTP interfaces in case a NAT
service is defined on port 80.
