4.1Configuring RIC-155 for Management

Configuration of RIC-155 is performed via menu-driven embedded software, using a standard ASCII terminal or PC running a terminal emulation application, connected to the rear panel CONTROL port. Alternatively, you can manage RIC-155 over Telnet, a PC running a Web browsing application such as ConfiguRAD or the RADview-Lite application via the MNG port.This section describes the configuration procedures for the RIC-155 converter.

To access the Configuration menu:

From the Main menu, select Configuration.

The Configuration menu appears (see Figure 4-1).

Note The Quick Setup menu is described in the Quick Start Guide.

Define the RIC-155 internal SNMP agent parameters in order to enable SNMP, Telnet or Web-based management (see Figure 4-2). Also you can enter additional information about your RIC-155, such as contact person, unit location etc.

To access the Management menu:

Follow the path: Configuration > System Configuration >Management. The Management menu appears (see Figure 4-2).
