System Administration
This chapter provides all the instructions and procedures necessary for system
administrators to manage the HSG on the customer’s network (after a successful
installation).
The system administration procedures in this chapter are organized as they are listed
under their respective Web Management Interface (WMI) menus:
z Configuration Menu
z Network Info Menu
z Port-Location Menu
z Subscriber Administration Menu
z Subscriber Interface Menu
z System Menu
Choosing a Remote Connection
Once installed and configured for the customer’s network, the HSG can be managed
and administered remotely with any of the following interface options:
z Using the Web Management Interface (WMI) – providing a powerful and
flexible Web interface for network administrators.
z Using an SNMP Manager – allowing remote “Windows” management using
an SNMP client manager (for example, HP OpenView). However, before
you can use SNMP to access the HSG, you must set up the appropriate
SNMP communities. For more information, refer to “Managing the SNMP
Communities {SNMP}” on page 128.
z Using a Telnet Client – for “character-based” administration and
management, using the Command Line Interface (CLI).
Choose an interface connection, based on your preference.
Now that the HSG has been installed and configured successfully, this
User’s Guide moves away from the Command Line Interface (CLI) and
documents the HSG from the Web Management Interface (WMI).
To use any of the remote connections (Web, SNMP, or Telnet), the
network interface IP address for the HSG must be established (you did
this during the installation process).
