Parameter Conventions

Remote Annex 6300 Supplement to the Remote Annex Administrator's Guide for UNIX
T
his chapter replaces Chapter 2 in Book C of the Remote Annex
Administrator's Guide for UNIX.
The configuration parameters define the operating characteristics for a
given RA 6300. There are three ways in which you can configure and
manage these parameters:
• The host-based na utility sends requests to the RA 6300 to read,
set, reset, show, or copy configuration parameters (for more
details, see na Commands on page C-1).
• The CLI admin command is a counterpart of na that runs
locally on the RA 6300.
• The SNMP agent included in the RA 6300 software provides
MIB objects that can be read and set by a standard SNMP
management station; these MIB objects correspond to the
configuration parameters (for more details, see Simple Network
Management Protocol (SNMP) on page B-57).
This chapter includes the following sections:
• Parameter Conventions
• Parameter Descriptions
This section describes the conventions for entering parameter values and
returning those values to the supplied defaults.
