THE MCED‐100 WEB SERVER INTERFACE FOR MONITOR AND CONTROL (M&C)
OF THE MCED‐100.
6.2 Ethernet Management Interface Protocols
The user PC facilitates access to Ethernet‐based remote monitor and control (M&C) of the
MCED‐100 through two separately‐operated protocols:
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). This requires a user‐supplied Network
Management System (NMS) and a user‐supplied Management Information Base (MIB) File
Browser.
• The MCED‐100 Web Server (HTTP) Interface. This requires a compatible user‐supplied Web
browser such as Internet Explorer.
6.2.1 Ethernet Management Interface Access
to the MCED‐100 Ethernet Management Interface requires the user to specify the unit’s
Management IP Address. This address may be obtained from the MCED‐100 Serial Interface,
upon power‐up of the unit, via use of a terminal emulator connected to the 9‐pin serial
‘CONSOLE’ port.
As shown, a number of operational parameters (including the unit’s factory‐default IP
addresses) are displayed. The default (factory‐assigned) IP addresses are provided in the table
that follows (if otherwise assigned, the user may use the last column to write down the IP
Addresses for future reference):
Description Query Default Address User-assigned Address
Management IP Address IPA? 192.168.1.4/24 ________________________________
IP Gateway Address IPG? 192.168.1.1 ________________________________
See Chapter 5. SERIAL‐BASED REMOTE PRODUCT MANAGEMENT for information and
instructions on using the MCED‐100 Serial Interface.
