2.8Connecting to TCP/IP Network Management at Remote Network Management Station (NMS)

It is recommended that the Multichannel Media Converter RJ-45 MANAGEMENT port be connected to the TCP/IP network management station (NMS) through a switch or a hub that also is connected to other managed network devices. If the Multichannel Media Converter RJ-45 MANAGEMENT port is connected directly to the NMS, the NMS will manage only that Multichannel Media Converter.

1.Locate or build a 10BASE-T-compliant twisted-pair shielded cable with RJ-45 plug connectors installed at both ends.

NOTE: Straight-through or crossover cable can be used, since the Multichannel Media Converter provides either an RJ-45 10BASE-T Ethernet port with an associated MDI-II/MDI-X switch or two RJ-45 10BASE-T ports, one configured as straight-through and the other configured as crossover, for connecting the Multichannel Media Converter to TCP/IP network management.

2.Connect RJ-45 connector at one end of cable to Multichannel Media Converter RJ-45 twisted-pair Management port.

3.Connect RJ-45 connector at other end of cable to RJ-45 port on 10BASE-T-compliant hub or switch.

4.Verify that the Multichannel Media Converter MANAGEMENT L(i)NK LED is illuminated. If not, change the MDI-II/MDI-X switch setting or the position of the RJ-45 shielded cable connection.

5.Verify that the appropriate LINK indicator on the hub or switch is illuminated.

NOTE: If installing Multiport Management Software at the NMS, skip the following steps and proceed to the next section.

6.Referring to documentation that comes with the NMS management application, copy the MIB file (SUPPLIED - located on the Multiport Management Software to the default NMS management application directory.

7.Again referring to documentation that comes with the NMS management application, add the new MIB to the NMS management application list and recompile the MIBs.
