BreezeMAX System Management
All BreezeMAX system components associated with a modular Base
Station are managed via the Base Station's NPU module. The other
system components (AUs and SUs) are not accessed directly: each
configuration change or status enquiry is sent to the NPU that
communicates with other system components. This is true also for a
Micro Base station, where all the associated SUs are managed indirectly
via the Micro Base Station (µBST).
NOTE
The SU can also be managed directly from its Ethernet port using the Installer Monitor
program. This option is available to support the installation process and enable special
tests and performance monitoring at the SU's site.
The following management options are available:
SNMP based management using AlvariSTAR (or another network
management system customized to support management of
BreezeMAX)
Using Telnet to access the embedded Monitor application.
Accessing the embedded Monitor application locally via the MON
port.
Two management access methods are available to support management
using SNMP and/or Telnet:
Out-Of-Band (OOB) management via the dedicated MGMT port.
In-Band (IB) management via the DATA port.
Typically, BreezeMAX systems will be managed using AlvariSTAR or
another SNMP based network management system.
This chapter describes how to manage the system using the Monitor
application. For information on managing the system using AlvariSTAR
refer to the Applicable AlvariSTAR documentation.
NOTE
To enable remote management (using SNMP and/or Telnet), the parameters of the
applicable port (MGMT and/or DATA) must first be configured via the MON port. For
details on the applicable parameters refer to
4-2
Configuration (NPU)
on page 4-23.
