Getting Started with RiverMaster | Enterasys Networks Network Card

Getting Started with

RiverMaster

This chapter introduces the essential functions of RiverMaster, describes Aurorean Virtual Network system status information displayed on the main interface, and summarizes the steps required to use RiverMaster to configure your Aurorean Virtual Network for the first time.

RiverMaster Overview

When RiverMaster is installed on your PC, the computer becomes a “management station” for the Aurorean Virtual Network, receiving dynamic updates from Aurorean Virtual Network systems and making immediate configuration changes. All data displayed by RiverMaster is retrieved from databases residing on the Aurorean Policy Server or from incoming messages from either the Aurorean Policy Server or Aurorean Network Gateway; no data is stored locally on your PC’s hard disk.

Figure 5 illustrates the interaction between the Aurorean Policy Server, Aurorean Network Gateway, and RiverMaster PC.
