Configuring Management Paths
Completing the Management Configuration
For Management VPIs/VCIs
a. In the Management IP Address field, enter the IP address of the external
device to which this switch connects.
b. Select Management VPI/VCI from the pull-down list in the Access Path field.
c. Choose the Select button to select the Management VPI/VCI Name (Mgmt
Conn. Name) you entered when completing the fields in Table 11-3 on
page 11-10.
d. Enter the ASE mask of the device connected to this management VPI/VCI.
The default is 255.255.255.255.
This mask should be the IP network mask for the network to which this switch
connects. For example, if the devices to be managed are on IP network
10.1.2.3, you should enter 10.255.255.255 for the ASE mask.
For MSPVCs
a. Enter the Management IP Address. This is the NMS IP address of the
SPARCstation to which this switch connects.
b. Select Management SPVC from the pull-down list in the Access Path field.
c. Choose the Select button to select the MSPVC Name.
5. Select the ASE Advertise check box to enable (default) advertising of the new
NMS management path on the network.
Clear the check box if you do not want to advertise the switch’s management path
as a gateway to the NMS.
Using ASE Advertise to select switches that function as gateway switches to the
NMS can provide greater control of OSPF database size, network control traffic,
and CPU usage.
6. Choose OK.
Configuring the Attached Device
To complete the management configuration and to configure the attached device:
1. Enter a static route in the router or NMS workstation to access the internal IP
network. (See the Network Management Station Installation Guide for more
information.)
2. Configure a PVC at the ATM interface of the router using the VPI/VCI values
used by the terminating PVC endpoint and the IP address of the switch.
