B.2 MANAGING THE SMARTCELL 6A000

Your SmartCell 6A000 must be IP reachable by the NMS before it can be managed. The default connection between the SmartCell 6A000 and the NMS is the SmartCell 6A000 Ethernet interface. Use the show SwitchConfig command to find the IP address of the SmartCell 6A000. An NMS can use this IP address to reach the SmartCell 6A000 through Ethernet. An NMS can also manage the SmartCell 6A000 through one of its ATM ports if the SmartCell 6A000 has a client connection into a VLAN or emulated LAN.

Note that the SmartCell 6A000 itself, is not reachable through ATM until a client for the switch is created and participates as a member of a VLAN or ELAN. Your NMS uses that switch client’s address to access and manage the switch.

To create a client for the switch, use the add IPATMClient command for VLANs and add LANEClient for emulated LANs.

Use the set MyNmAddr command to tell the SmartCell 6A000 which interface to use when communicating with your NMS. For detailed information about these commands, see the SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual.
