Chapter 4 - MultiFRAD Software
MultiFRAD Configuration
To view or change your MultiFRAD configuration in Windows 95/NT, click Start | Programs |
MultiFRAD 200 | MultiFRAD Configuration, or double-click the MultiFRAD Configuration icon in
the MultiFRAD 200 program group. After loading, the MultiFRAD main menu will appear.
The MultiFRAD main menu consists of 12 buttons in which you can point and click, an Events
window, and a status bar. The 12 buttons enable you to display and change the protocol stacks,
statistics, WAN port setup, Frame Relay parameters, data port configuration, enable applications
such as SNMP Agent, Telnet Server, Web Server, and assign a MultiFRAD password.
The Events window can be a useful troubleshooting tool. Its purpose is to provide timely
information about the boot process and ongoing information regarding the status of "events" such
as the type of frame relay management selected and which PVCs are active.
The status bar, located at the bottom of the main menu, displays MultiFRAD status (e.g.;
Running), the date that the unit was configured, the type of connection on the command port;
e.g., if the PC connected to the command port is using its serial port to communicate with the
MultiFRAD or if the PC is communicating with the MultiFRAD via an Ethernet connection. The
last field on the status bar is the Rights field which displays either Read/Write or Read only rights.
The first user to connect with the MultiFRAD has Read/Write rights and can change the
configuration of the MultiFRAD. The second user has read-only rights and can only display the
configuration of the MultiFRAD.
If your WAN port (connected to the DCE device) is configured for frame relay, the button
immediately to the right of the WAN button is entitled, "Frame Relay." However, if your WAN port
is configured for Point-to-Point operation, the marking on the button switches from "Frame Relay"
to "PPP."
