CONFIGURING EDACS DEVICES

9. CONFIGURING EDACS DEVICES

The Network Manager provides a single point of control and can configure devices by either bringing up clients running on the Network Manager or by logging into devices with the native access mode. The PI, BCU/CAL, and EDG are accessed in the native access mode. These devices do not have local editors. The Accounting: File Transfer (ftp) menu item may be used to move configuration files to the Network Manager for editing and then transferred back to the device.

The EDACS Configuration Menu presents configuration functions associated with the EDACS device represented by the icon. The following submenus are accessible from the Configuration menu.

∙Configure: Brings up the local client Graphical User Interface to configure the device.

∙Connect: Connects to the EDACS device (i.e., via Telnet) to use the device’s native configuration utilities.

∙Reboot: Automatically reboots the EDACS device.

∙Restart: Restarts traffic after a shutdown.

∙Shutdown: Shuts down traffic without losing connectivity.

9.1 INTEGRATED CEC/IMC MANAGER

The CEC/IMC Manager client is invoked using the EDACS- >Configuration->Configuremenu item with the IMC Manager icon selected. The CEC/IMC Manager for Windows NT employs the

client-server paradigm. The server, which interfaces to the CEC/IMC, runs on the Windows NT platform while the client may run on either the Windows NT platform or the EDACS Network Manager UNIX platform. The CEC/IMC Manager HP-UX client has the ability to dynamically change between the Motif and Windows environment appearance. The CEC/IMC Manager communicates from its Graphical User Interface (GUI), or client, to its underlying engine via Open Systems Foundation (OSF) compliant Remote Procedure Calls (RPCs). This strategy implies that if the Ethernet link between the IMC Manager and the EDACS Network Manager goes down (which should be highly unlikely), then the EDACS Network Manager interface for the IMC will only be able to report that the link is down.
