Administrative Problems (Netview/SNMP/Telnet)

This section details problems occuring during the administration of your ONcore hub (PING,Telnet,TFTP,SNMP/ATMC).

PING:

Your

ONcore

hub

cannnot

ping your management

station.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Steps

to

Take:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

1. Since all

the management

services are

running over

IP,

you have to ensure that

your

ONcore

hub

can

ping

the

destination

station

where you

will run

either Telnet,

the

TFTP daemon (TFTP server), or the SNMP

manager (ATMC).

If

the ping fails,

see

previous

sections

on

ping

failures

in

Classical

IP

or

LAN

emulation

networks.

Telnet: You cannot Telnet to your ONcore hub from your management station.

Steps to Take:

1. If

the

ping

does

not

work,

see

previous

sections

on

ping

failures.

 

 

2. Someone

is

already

logged

on

the

ONcore

 

hub

by

another Telnet session. It is not

possible

to

have more than one Telnet session

per

ONcore

hub.

 

 

 

 

To

know

from

which

station

the

 

other

Telnet

session

 

is active, use the ATMC SVC

Tracking

tool

to

determine

at

least

which

 

SVCs

are

 

connected

to

the internal

port of

the

ONcore

hub (interface 1). You will then know

the ATM addresses of the remote

ends, as

well

as

the ONcore

hub

ports

to

which

they

are

connected

to.

 

Note:

It

is

recommended to set the Terminal Timeout parameter

to a non-zero

 

value,

to

force

Telnet

sessions

to

close

 

themselves

after

some

inactivity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

TFTP: Upload fails from your

ONcore

hub

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Explanation:

 

The

upload can be done either

from

the

terminal

console

(console or

 

Telnet)

or

from

the SNMP Manager (ATMC or MIB Browser).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Before

performing

any upload,

make

sure

that

 

the machine

hosting

the TFTP

server

can

ping

the

ONcore hub.
