Identifying an Appliance

In order to add an ETEP in ETEMS, you must:

●Specify the product family and software version

●Enter a unique name

●Enter the desired throughput speed (ETEPs with software version 1.6 and later)

The Interfaces tab contains the fields that ETEMS uses to identify an appliance and communicate with it: appliance name, throughput speed, management interface IP address, and password (ETEP1.3 only).

Product Family and Software Version

When configuring a new appliance (File > New Appliance), the first thing to do is select the product family–for example, ET0100A–and the software version loaded on the appliance, such as ETEP1.6. ETEMS displays a configuration screen tailored to the specified appliance model and software version.

Appliance Name

The appliance name is defined on the Interfaces tab. The appliance name identifies an appliance to ETEMS. When the configuration is loaded on the appliance, the appliance name is used as the SNMP system name (MIB2 sysName). Names must adhere to the following conventions:

●Appliance names must be unique

●Names can be 1-255 characters
