Multi-Tech Systems MVP120 manual Applications Setup, Using the MultiVOIP Software

Chapter 7 - Using the MultiVOIP Software

Applications Setup

Clicking Others on the Setup menu displays the Applications Setup dialog box. This dialog box allows you to enable SNMP Agent (the default is disabled) and set up all the necessary parameters; enable or disable various remote configuration methods such as TFTP (Trivial File Transfer Protocol) Server, Web Server, Dumb Terminal Management, and Telnet Server; and assign a Password to the MVP120 for security. These applications enable remote viewing and changing of the MVP120 configuration, or updating firmware, from anywhere on the connected network.

Verify that the desired applications are selected. All applications are selected by default. To disable a given application, clear its check box.

SNMP related operations can be performed only when the SNMP Agent check box is selected on this dialog box. The IP address of the system (i.e., SNMP Manager) that will receive the Traps from the MVP120 should be entered in the IP Address field in the Trap Manager group. The Community Name of the SNMP Manager receiving the Traps can be a maximum of 19 characters and is case sensitive. The default Port Number of the SNMP Manager receiving the Traps is 162. The MVP120 currently supports a maximum of two community users at a time, and they can be assigned either Read/Write or Read Only rights. Note: if you have SNMP client software and enable SNMP Agent, you can (in the lower right corner of the dialog box) choose to read logs through the SNMP Manager instead of the COM port.

The Password group enables you to enter a password, up to 13 alphanumeric characters, to be used for security. Once the password is entered and confirmed, remote users will be queried to enter the password before gaining access to the MVP120 for configuration purposes.

Note: If you forget your password, contact Technical Support for instructions.

For more information on using these applications, refer to Chapter 5, Remote Configuration and Management.
