How to Manage the Device MDM6000 Satellite Modem
11 How to Manage the Device
This section shows how the parameters in the device are ordered and managed according to your
needs.
It also describes the different user profiles you can use to login and manage the device.
The device can be managed using one of the following physical interfaces:
• The front panel;
• The management Ethernet interfaces, used to work with a GUI (Graphical User Interface), CLI
(Command Line Interface) or SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol);
• The craft interface is used to work with the CLI.
11.1 Management Model / Menu Tree
The device management model is designed as a menu tree and a set of commands. The menu tree
exposes the organization of the parameters in the device while the commands are used to execute
actions other than simply setting or getting a parameter.
The menu tree is built up out of a root, branches, sub branches and leafs/parameters.
The menu trees of the GUI, front panel, CLI and SNMP are similar to one another.
Refer to the reference manual on the CD-ROM to get a full overview.
In some cases, there is a difference between the location of a parameter in the GUI and a location
via the front panel.
The parameter location is displayed as follows:
MDM6000 >> Branch >> Zero or more Sub Branches >> Leafs
The previous line indicates the following:
» Navigate to branch;
» Navigate to Sub Branch (when a sub branch exists);
» Select a leaf/parameter.
