Remote Configuration

Slot Config Web Page

Use the Slot Config web page (

Figure 14 on page 26

) to perform the following

functions on the module:

Locate Module

– selecting the

Flash

selection in the pulldown button flashes the

yellow COMM LED on the front of the module so it can be located in the
frame.

Slot Identification

– You may identify the module by typing a specific name in

the

Name

field. The assigned name is stored on the 8900NET module and

travels with the 8900NET module if it is moved to another frame. Select

Default

to enter the factory default module name.

An asset identification may be entered in the

Asset Tag

field up to 16 characters.

This will appear on the module Status web page and in the NetConfig inven-
tory report.

Slot Memory

– the slot configuration for each module is automatically saved

periodically (once an hour) to the 8900NET module in that frame. You may
also select the

Learn Module Config

button at any time to save the current con-

figuration for this slot. The configuration is saved on the 8900NET module. If
the 8900NET module is removed or powered down, the stored configurations
are not saved.

When the

Restore upon Install

box has been checked, the current configuration

saved to this slot is saved as slot memory. When the current module is removed
and another module of the same type is installed, the configuration saved to the
8900NET module will be downloaded to the new module. The box must be
checked before the current module with the saved configuration is removed.

Only the same module type, with the same version software should be installed
in this slot. Inserting a similar module with a different version software can
cause unexpected results. If a different type of module in this slot, a warning
message will state that the original module type has been replaced with another
module type. In this case, a Clear button will appear allowing you to clear the
stored configuration from the previous module.

Frame Health Reporting

– when this link is selected, a page of the 8900NET

module is opened where the boxes will be checked for each module of the
frame. When there is a hardware problem the 8900NET software raises an
alarm. Refer to 8900NET Intruction Manual for more details.

Slot SNMP Trap Reports

– when this link is selected, a page of the 8900NET

module is opened where the boxes will be checked for each module of the
frame. This page will be displayed only when the SNMP Agent software has
been installed on the 8900NET module. Slot SNMP traps can be enabled only
when the hardware switches for Module Fault reporting and Asynchronous
Status reporting are enabled on the 8900NET module (dipswitch S1 segment 5
and dipswitch S2 segment 1).

The enabled SNMP traps will be reported to any SNMP manager that is iden-
tified as an SNMP Report Destination in 8900NET configuration. Trap
severity is read-only hard-coded information that is interpreted and responded
