4 Manager Procedures
4.1 Overview
System management is carried out by a supervisor or network manager.
The Router software manager facilities (referred to briefly as the
'manager') provide the dialogue between the supervisory/managerial user
and Router. It is an intelligent, command-driven, menu/form based
system, and provides the ability to configure, monitor, and control Router.
The manager environment provides you with access to all the
configuration, control, and status functions with a minimum of input. This
is performed by using a system of menus to display choices, and forms to
enter configuration data. All commands within the system may be
accessed from any menu, and any menu can be reached directly from any
other. The manager combines the menus, forms and commands in a
context-sensitive way to give a fully-featured control point for Router.
You can control the Router manager by using one of a number of terminal
types (e.g. VT100), whose characteristics are already pre-configured in
Router.
An example application and its configuration is given in Appendix E.
