than a user-programmed time period. The best way to learn the web pages is to go through each tab
and look at the features.
TELNET
Telnet provides remote log-on capability to a computer or server. The terminal to terminal connection
with Telnet is based on a TCP connection for traffic between user and server. Once login is established;
the Pulsar Edge will support this session until the “exit” command is received or the idle timeout limit
is reached. A command line interface is used to view and configure the Pulsar Edge’s features and
thresholds. Backup, restore, and upgrade procedures may also be performed.
SNMP
SNMP (simple network management protocol) is the most dominant network management standard.
It allows communication and control via open standards host systems for centralized management of
multiple plants. A number of vendors such as HP OpenView, IBM NetView, Lucent OneVision, and Sun
Micro’s NetManager have adopted the standard for telecommunication and computer equipment
network management. A standard MIB for the Pulsar Edge is available to be down loaded on the web at
www.gecriticalpower.com . Up to four SNMP alarm trap destinations can be programmed using the
Network Settings link found in Settings Tab of the web pages.
Alarms then can be assigned under Alarm Notification also found in the Settings tab of the web pages.
SNMP is more fully described in the Appendix.
SMTP
SMTP (simple mail transfer protocol) provides a basic electronic email facility. It provides a mechanism
for transferring messages among separate hosts and browser applications. The protocol is used in
Gateway for sending alarm messages and alerts through email.
FTP
FTP (file transfer protocol) is used to send files from one system to another under user commands.
The protocol is used with the Pulsar Edge for downloading files and upgrades through a TCP
connection. Application software, default configuration file, and web pages are uploaded to the Pulsar
Edge using FTP.
TL1
TL1 is the transaction language command interface that allows direct communication with a central
monitoring system and is defined by Telcordia for various equipment. It allows communication and
control via open standards host systems for centralized management of multiple plants. The protocol
is typically used over a X.25 network for alarm reporting.
Email : Up to four separate email addresses can be assigned for alarm messages
