Controlling communication with the network access devices using the SREM

To stop communication between the Nortel SNAS 4050 and a network access device, disable the switch. Click Apply and Commit to apply the change immediately.

Note: If the switch is not going to be used in the Nortel SNA network, Nortel recommends deleting the switch from the Nortel SNAS 4050 domain, rather than just disabling it.

To restart communication between the Nortel SNAS 4050 and a network access device, enable the switch. Click Apply and Commit to apply the change immediately.

When you first add a network access device to the Nortel SNAS 4050 domain, the switch is disabled by default. Do not enable the switch until you have completed configuring it. In particular, do not enable the switch until you have mapped the VLANs (see “Mapping the VLANs using the SREM” on page 96) and exchanged the necessary SSH keys (see “Managing SSH keys using the SREM” on

page 102).
