Local Terminal Configuration

Using the Main Menu

The Telemetry port only receives packets destined to the telemetry port’s IP address, can transmit packets onto the network, and is used for SNMP communications to the probe. It requires the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Default Gateway IP Address fields. The following apply to Telemetry ports:

 

 

 

HP OpenView can discover the interface

 

 

 

The interface is IP addressable

 

 

 

The interface responds to RMON-1

 

 

 

zThe interface will transmit all traps from the probe

 

 

 

The interface will transmit all extended RMON packets

 

 

 

sample from Monitor-only ports, Monitor/Transmit ports.

 

 

IP Address

Press 3 and then type the IP address for the probe. If the IP

 

 

 

address is 0.0.0.0, the probe will transmit Bootp Requests

 

 

 

for configuration information (including IP address) over the

 

 

 

network. (This does not apply to ports configured as Monitor-

 

 

 

Only.)

 

 

Default Gateway

Press 4 and then type the default gateway IP address for the

 

 

 

probe

 

 

IP Address

Optional

 

 

Subnet Mask

Press 5 and then type the subnet mask for the probe.

 

 

Physical

Press 6 and choose a physical connector. The menu displays

 

 

Connector

the physical connectors that are available. You can use the

 

 

 

RJ-45 or AUI connector. If you select AUI, items 7 and 8

 

 

 

(Link Speed and Full/Half Duplex) are not available. AUI is

 

 

 

10MB/s half-duplex.

 

 

 

CAUTION

If you manually select the Link Speed, be careful to configure it correctly. If you

 

 

configure the Link Speed for 100 MB/s and you connect the probe to a

 

 

10MB/s network, the probe will generate 100% utilization for that segment.
