Purpose of the Server Management Tool
Overview
The 8950 AAA Server Management Tool (SMT) is an application that is used for
configuring and managing 8950 AAA servers. It utilizes a graphical user interface or GUI
that interfaces to the 8950 AAA server. It can be used to manage all aspects of server
operation. The SMT also displays real-time statistical information from the RADIUS
servers and Universal State Server (USS) systems.
The SMT is a standalone application that is started and run independently of the 8950
AAA server. The SMT may be run on the same computer as 8950 AAA or on a different
computer. When the SMT is not run on the same platform as 8950 AAA then a small
application called the 8950 AAA server must be started on the 8950 AAA platform before
the SMT can be used.
