Software Management Through VT100
You can manage the system with VT100 Terminal Emulation through the Command Port on the
DMM, which is accessible by a Telnet session, HyperTerminal or similar terminal emulation
software; a standard SNMP network manager; and CanogaView. For details on CanogaView, see
the CanogaView User Manual.
Setting Up for Network Management
Typically, the DMM runs within the network on an Ethernet connection, communicating with
your Network Management Platform.
Set Up the Network Management Platform
You must run several Management Information Bases (MIBs) on your Network Management
Platform in order to successfully manage this module. Before you start, check that these
industry-standard MIBs are loaded:
• standard.mib
• rfc1213.mib
In addition, download Cp.mib, which supports all Canoga Perkins products and is available from
the Canoga Perkins web site. Go to www.Canoga.com, click Support, then click Software
Download, and follow the prompts on screen.
Set Up the PC for Terminal Operation
Setting up the VT100 session depends on which connection, serial port or Ethernet, you have
available for access to the VT100 management program. Canoga Perkins suggests that you use
HyperTerminal for your first session.
Note: You must set up TCP/IP for the DMM before you can use Telnet or CanogaView.
Use the terminal to directly manage the DMM or to configure it with the network or modem
parameters necessary for remote management.
These steps briefly describe how to set up your PC for a terminal connection. For details on
using Windows, see your Windows documentation.
1. Plug a DE-9 straight-through serial cable into the EIA-232 port on the DMM and the serial
port on the PC or terminal.
2. On the DMM, set the MDM/TRM switch to TRM.
3. Turn on your PC.
