In-band Management

There are two ways to implement remote in-band management of a
WANsuite 7205 unit. The first is to use the local router to route management
frames (Web browser or SNMP) between the local LAN and the remote unit.
The second is to use the local WANsuite 7205 unit as an independent
gateway.

Use of Connected Local Router

If you choose this method, no configuration is required in the WANsuite
7205s. Local Router A will route Web/SNMP frames from the PC to the
remote WANsuite 7205s. The remote WANsuite 7205 IP address must be set
within the same network as the remote routers B and C LAN network.

Frame Relay Network

If the remote units are required to have an IP address for networks that are
different from the remote routers, a static route will have to be configured in
the local router (Router A) for each remote WANsuite 7205 to manage. If
Router A becomes unavailable, there is no way to reach the remote
WANsuite 7205s.

Use of Local WANsuite 7205 as a Gateway

If you choose this method, the WANsuite 7205s are totally independent from
the routers, so all units will be accessible as long as the frame relay network
stays up. The IP address assignment is also independent from the routers. The
PC used for management must have the local WANsuite 7205’s IP address as
its gateway address so that it can reach all remote WANsuite 7205s.
