USING THE

4 CENTRAL CONFIGURATION MANAGER

 

You should use the Local Configuration Manager to initialize each of the

 

IntelliJacks installed on your network. Once you have completed that step, you can

 

manage all of them with the Central Configuration Manager.

 

Install this program on any computer on your network you want to use as a

 

central management console (See chapter 2, “Installing the Configuration

 

Managers” for help). You can use the same machine that has your SNMP-based

 

management platform. The Central Configuration Manager will be able to

 

configure and manage all of the IntelliJacks that reside on your network.

 

We recommend that you keep the Central Configuration Manager (CCM) running

 

on your machine. Information such as traps and alerts are sent to the CCM on a

 

periodic basis. If you shut off the machine or close the configuration manager, you

 

will not be able to receive this information.

Discovering

In order to manage the IntelliJacks on your network, the Central Configuration

IntelliJacks on Your

Manager needs to include them in its database. The easiest way to add new

Network

IntelliJacks to the database is to use the device discovery tool included in the

 

Central Configuration Manager.
