Enterasys Networks X-PeditionTM manual Accessing the XSR Through the Web, Network Management Tools

Accessing the XSR Through the Web

1.Write a plain ASCII file containing the CLI commands you want entered. For example: interface FastEthernet2

ip address 192.168.19.1 255.255.255.0 no shutdown

2.Save and move the file to the root directory of the TFTP server on your PC.

3.Use SNMPv3 to create a row in the Configuration Management MIB. For example, CreateAndWait:

1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.16.2.7.1.11.1 = 5

If you read the table, one row should be added.

4.Set the file name to point to the file on your PC:

1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.16.2.7.1.2.1 = tftp://1.1.1.1/newCmd

5.Set the operation to configAppend:

1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.16.2.7.1.3.1 = 0x0020

6.Set the row to active state:

1.3.6.1.4.1.5624.1.2.16.2.7.1.11.1 - 1

The configuration in the newCmd file is now part of the running-config. That is, you will see the configuration for fastethernet2 when you enter the show running-configcommand.

Note: Be aware that the ConfigurationAppend command does not check for syntax errors in the file being downloaded from the server.

For more information, refer to the Enterasys Configuration Management MIB.

Accessing the XSR Through the Web

The XSR via a browser but provide a cursory display of hardware configuration data to diagnose the router over the Web. Because the Web server is disabled at boot-up, you must either manually enable the Web server using the CLI, or enable it in startup-config. The default Web server port is 80. Access to the XSR through the Web is not password protected.
