NB: If you later have problems which are due to incorrect Chameleon
configuration, you can run the Custom application again manually (from
the Chameleon group) to change the settings. Remember that you may
need to exit Windows and restart the computer to put any changes into
effect.

5.5.1 Test that Chameleon is installed correctly

Use the Chameleon Ping application to verify communications between
your PC and the host on which the NMS is running.
If you have problems, refer to the Chameleon TCP/IP for Windows
Installation and User's Guide and/or the Chameleon Installation on
Windows for Workgroups booklet to help you find the cause.
Reconfigure as necessary until you are able to see the NMS host
reliably.
5.6 Install the MIB into your NMS
PCNC's MIB file is provided on the SNMP Support Disk 3. It allows your
NMS to identify the PCNC computer and the traps it generates. Using
Chameleon's FTP program, transfer this file to your NMS and install it.
The installation procedure will vary depending on which NMS you are
using.
5.7 The next step
Once Chameleon and the MIB are installed and working correctly, you
will be able to send and receive traps over TCP/IP. You will now need to
install PCNC (see next chapter) if you have not done so already, and
configure the [SNMP Link] section of PCNC.INI (see Section 7.13).
