5 Network Management
The CPSMM100 firmware and the FocalPoint™ application are described in the
FocalPoint™ 2.0 Management Application and CPSMM100 Firmware user’s guide
(P/N 33293). This manual is included on the application CD and is also available
on-line at www.transition.com.
Transition Networks CPSMM100 firmware is embedded in the optional manage-
ment modules (see section 2.2). The firmware allows the network administrator to
configure and manage the CPSMC19xx-100 chassis from an attached terminal or
from a remote, networked computer.
The firmware includes the Transition Networks Command Line Interface (CLI), a tel-
net server, a Web browser, and an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol)
agent.
In addition, Transition Networks FocalPoint™ application can be installed in the
networked computer to provide a graphical user interface to monitor the
PointSystem™ chassis.
Hardware Connections
Network management can be implemented either through the DB-9 serial port or
through the RJ-45 Ethernet port of the management modules.
