UT-4500 Series C- and Ku-Band Up Converters
Ethernet Interface Operation

7.1.1 Prerequisites

Before you proceed with Ethernet remote product management, make sure the
following is true:
• The converter is operating with the latest version firmware files.
• The User PC is running a terminal emulation program for operation of the
unit Telnet Interface.
• The User PC is running a compatible web browser for operation of the
unit HTTP Interface.
• The User PC is connected to the unit's RJ-45 'Ethernet' port.
• You have recorded the unit's Management IP Address.

7.2 SNMP Interface

SNMP is an Internet-standard protocol for managing devices over IP networks. An
SNMP-managed network has three key components:
• The managed device. This includes this unit.
• The SNMP Agent. This software runs on the converter. The unit SNMP
Agent supports both SNMPv1 and SNMPv2.
• The user-supplied Network Management System (NMS). This software
runs on the User PC.

7.2.1 Management Information Base (MIB) Files

An MIB file is used for SNMP remote management of a unique device, and
consist of a tree of nodes called Object Identifiers (OIDs). Each OID provides
remote management of a particular function. These MIB files should be compiled
in a user-supplied MIB Browser or SNMP Network Monitoring System server. In
these unit MIB file names, the letter 'x' represents the revision of the file.
7.2.1.1 ComtechEFData Root MIB File
• FW-0000235x.mib
• ComtechEFData MIB file gives the root tree for all Comtech EF Data
products and consists of only the following OID:
o Name: comtechEFData
