Setting The Device Manager Properties - Nortel NN46225-300 Fundamentals

Setting the Device Manager properties

Device Manager uses the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP)
to configure and manage the Optical Ethernet Services Solution (OESS)
switches. You can use the Device Manager Properties dialog box to
configure important communication parameters such as the polling interval,
timeout, and retry count. You can set these parameters at any time before
or after you open a device.
Device Manager keeps a set of default, or global, properties that apply to
all devices, and a set of properties for each device. The default properties
are used when you open a device for the first time. A copy of the properties
are saved for each device that is opened. You can customize the properties
for a particular device as required.
Use this procedure to set the Device Manager default properties.
