Management from a network management station
You can manage the M770 ATM Switch using SNMP management running over
UDP/IP over an Emulated LAN (ELAN).
• Connect the management station to the ELAN that the management LEC is
connected to, or make sure it can communicate with that ELAN.
• Set the IP address of the M770 ATM Switch management LEC, and make sure
the management station is either on the same subnet or can communicate with
that subnet. If the management station and management LEC are on different
subnets, set the default gateway on the M770 ATM Switch so it can
communicate with the management station.
• Make sure you know the SNMP community name (for both read and write
access).
• Operate the Avaya M770 ATM Switch Manager on your management station as
part of the CajunView package. The Avaya M770 ATM Switch Manager enables
you to view the device, check the status indicators from the management
station, and perform a range of management tasks. For more information about
Avaya M770 ATM Switch Manager, refer to the Avaya M770 ATM Switch
Manager UserGuide.
Setup Procedures on an Avaya M770 ATM Switch
To install an M770 ATM Switch successfully, do the following:
• To access and manage an M770 ATM Switch remotely, an IP address must be
assigned to the switch. For more information on setting up an IP address on an
M770 ATM Switch, see ”Setting the IP address” on page 11.
• To access an attached device or switch, set up static routing entries to switches
that do not support PNNI and to any attached devices that do not support ILMI.
For more information on setting up a routing table on an M770 ATM Switch, see
Chapter 9, “Managing Static Routing”.
• To enable an attached device or switch to communicate, you may need to
configure ports. For more information on configuring ports on an M770 ATM
Switch, see ”ATM Port Configuration” on page 12.
• To enable communication over the network - LAN Emulation must be set up on
the switch. For more information on setting up LAN Emulation on an M770
ATM Switch, see “Setting up LAN Emulation” on page 16.
