Snmp - VBrick 9000 Getting Started Manual

Management Tools
You can use HyperTerminal or the industry-standard Telnet to manage the Command Line
Interface (CLI). The same suites of menus that are displayed on a local terminal are instantly
available over an IP network.
VBrick uses the standard Telnet port (23). Telnet uses the same commands as Command Line
Interface (CLI). The Telnet and HyperTerminal applications are both referred to as CLI or
Command Line Interface. For more information see Command Line Interface topics.

SNMP

The VBrick encoder can also be configured and managed through its MIB which is available
on the VBrick Support Downloads site. Various SNMP (Simple Network Management
Protocol) management tools are available to issue SNMP based commands to the encoder.
The command structure is similar to CLI and Telnet. It is necessary to become the active
editor and apply the changes before they take effect in the encoder. Note that the SNMP
community strings are the usernames. The image below shows a typical, freeware MIB
browser.
