All other customers abroad should contact Network Solutions at the telephone number given above for assistance in locating network providers in your region.

If you do not plan to be connected to the Internet, you can assign network addresses on your own. However, if you plan on accessing the Internet in the future, you may want to apply for an Internet network address so you will not have to change network addresses when you make the connection.

After obtaining your Internet address, refer to “Assigning Internet Addresses to a Bridge” on page 6-20or to “Assigning Internet Addresses to a Router” on page 6-21.For additional information on Internet addresses and subnets, refer to Using NETBuilder Family Software.

Setting Up the Simple The NETBuilder II bridge/router participates in different types of network Network Management management activities. Most management activities require configuration because

Protocolthey are disabled by default. The bridge/router manages networks in the following ways:

■Configuring and monitoring from a UNIX or Windows network management station using Transcend Enterprise Manager

■Remote upgrade management using the NETBuilder Remote Upgrade Management Utilities supplied on CD-ROM with every NETBuilder release

■Building network maps (netmaps)

This guide does not describe in detail how to set up the SNMP Service. Refer to Using NETBuilder Family Software and Reference for NETBuilder Family Software for more information.

SNMP allows you to modify and display some NETBuilder parameters from a network management station. You do not need to attach a terminal to the bridge/router console port to change its configuration. To implement SNMP, follow specifications in RFC 1155, RFC 1157, and RFC 1213. System parameters described in RFC 1213 and 3Com extended parameters can be accessed from the host.
