NEC Security
On systems that run the Windows 95 or Windows 98 operating system,
NEC Security features allow a local user to change NEC Security
passwords and enable a system administrator to control local machine
devices, including printer ports, serial ports, and diskette drives.
Note
The NEC Security password is different from the password(s) that
can be set through the BIOS Setup utility.
Install NEC Security from the NEC Select Install CD. For installation
information, see "Installing Applications" in Chapter 3.
NEC SNMP Agent
The NEC Desktop Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) Agent
is an extension to the Microsoft SNMP Agent. The NEC SNMP Agent
permits a network administrator to manage NEC PowerMate clients.
The NEC SNMP Agent performs the following major functions:
Assets Management — displays system serial number, product model,
!
and more.
Configuration Management — displays memory size and more.
!
!
Help Desk Support — provides information such as BIOS versions.
Alert Notification — provides alerts when thresholds are exceeded
!
(for example, when temperatures exceed specified limits in a
computer).
SNMP managed devices on a network send messages (traps) when a
preset level of device activity occurs. Notification of events with SNMP
traps is sent to a network manager upon reaching either a user-specified
over-threshold or under-threshold condition for any supported
management information base (MIB) variable.
The following sections describe how to install and configure the NEC
SNMP Agent on Microsoft Windows 95 or Windows 98 or Microsoft
Windows NT configured systems.
