SNMP Management
Command Line Interface
3 Configure the WAN interface of the router:
Configure the physical operating parameters (the operating mode of the serial
port, baud rate, and synchronous clock) of the interface according to the
transmission medium of the WAN. For the dial-up port, you need to configure
DDR parameters.
Configure the link layer protocol encapsulated on the interface and the related
operating parameters according to the type of the WAN.
4 Configure the IP addresses or IPX network number for all the ports of the router
according to the division of the subnets.
5 Configure the routes. If you have to start up the dynamic routing protocol,
configure the related operating parameters of the protocol.
6 Create the security configuration for the router, as necessary.
7 Create the reliability configuration for the router, as necessary.
For help managing routers on your network, you can use 3Com Network Director
software to discover, map, and display network links and IP devices.
To allow Network Director to monitor your routers, you must first configure SNMP
V1 with the following commands:
[3Com]snmp-agent sys-info version v1
[3Com]snmp-agent community read <read-community-string>
[3Com]snmp-agent community write <write-community-string>
[3Com]trap address <addr> parameter
v1 securityname <security-name-string>
is the address of the PC on which you have installed Network Director.
<addr>

The command line interface of the Router 5000 routers provides commands to
configure and manage the router. The command line interface has the following
characteristics:
Performs local configuration through the console port.
Performs local or remote configuration through the telnet command, which
can be used to log on directly and manage other routers.
Implements the configuration on the router through the terminals (the
asynchronous interface, including those connected to the AUX port and AS
port) in dumb terminal mode.
Configures the hierarchical user protection (guest, operator, administrator).
Only administrator users are authorized to configure and manage the routers.
Online help, available by typing
