Once an alert has been processed by PCNC and converted into a trap, it
is sent to PCNCSNMP which in turn passes it on to Chameleon.
The traps are then processed by Chameleon, which communicates with
the NDIS Driver. Chameleon is configured with information about the
NMS such as its IP address, so that it knows where to send the traps.
The Driver is the interface between Chameleon and the network card.
Finally, the card forwards the traps to the NMS server over TCP/IP.
PCNC can also listen for traps arriving from Cabletron devices on the
TCP/IP network in the same way as it does for the COM ports. This also
requires the SNMP link.
The settings for the sending and receiving of traps are defined in the
[SNMP Link] section of PCNC.INI (See section 7.13).

5.5 Installing the Chameleon package

If you are running Windows for Workgroups, check the Chameleon
Installation on Windows for Workgroups booklet for information
relevant to your installation. This will tell you your choices for installing
the Chameleon package in Windows for Workgroups. In any case, refer
to the Chameleon TCP/IP for Windows Installation and User's Guide ,
and run the Chameleon Setup program.
The Setup program will first ask for a serial number and key. It will then
ask you which directory you want it to use for the Chameleon files.
Choose the suggested directory of C:\NETMANAG, by just pressing the
Continue button. If you have a good reason not to use this directory
name, make sure that you choose a name which is different from the
PCNC working directory, so that the Chameleon and PCNC files do not
get mixed up.
