Configuration

This chapter describes how to install the GEnet System Manager (GSM), and how to use it to configure your Ethernet Interface. The chapter includes an overview of the GSM and a detailed guide to the basic menus that are used in configuring and managing your Ethernet Interface.

The chapter is divided into 5 sections.

Section 1. Installing and Starting-Up the GSM

Section 2. Configuring a Station for a Basic Network

Section 3. Downloading a Station via the GSM

Section 4. Accessing the Station Manager

Section 5. GSM Support Functions

Note

The GSM is used to maintain a variety of LAN Interfaces. Parts of this chapter are written so as to reflect this generality. Thus, you may see occasional references to LAN Interfaces other than the type(s) you use.
