NMS300 Network Management System Application

8.For Windows 2008 and Windows 2003 operating systems, use either of the following methods to start the application manually.

•Select NMS300 > Service > Start Server.

•Navigate to the directory that you selected for the application installation and under that directory, navigate to the NMS300\StartService.bat folder.

You do not need to enter a license key for the application.

Prepare the Network Devices for Discovery

To manage the devices on your network, you must prepare them for the application. By default, the application lets you manage up to 200 devices. For information about managing more than 200 devices, contact your NETGEAR sales contact.

To prepare the devices on your network:

1.Upgrade your devices to their latest released firmware.

To upgrade the firmware, use the web management interface of the device.

Each device must run the latest firmware before the application can discover and manage the device. Once you perform this one-time upgrade, the application can centrally manage future device firmware upgrades.

2.Create the credentials for your devices.

The application uses a combination of SNMP, HTTP, and Telnet protocols to interact with the devices on your network. You must configure the application with the device credentials to authenticate with the devices over the following protocols:

•Telnet and HTTP protocols. If the devices do not have the default password for the admin user, create two new credentials in the application.

Create one credential for the Telnet protocol and another credential for the HTTP protocol that contain either the admin user credential or the credential of another user of the device with administrative privileges.

•SNMP community strings. If the devices do not have the default SNMP community strings, create a credential in the application for the SNMP protocol that contains the matching community strings.

For more information, see Add a Device Credential on page 25.

3.Make sure that each device on your network is configured to send SNMPv1 or SNMPv2 traps to the IP address of the NMS300 server.

The application listens for SNMPv1 and SNMPv2 traps.
