About iView²
iView² is a cross-platform network management application for intelligent networking
devices. It features a graphic user interface (GUI) and gives network managers the
ability to monitor and control devices from virtually any 32-bit Windows platform.
iView² can also function as a snap-in module for many SNMP applications. Refer to
the help files for iView² and AccessEtherLinX for information regarding configuring
and managing the AccessEtherLinX.
About iConfig
iConfig is an in-band configuration utility that lets users quickly and easily complete
the first stages of SNMP configuration for SNMP-manageable devices. Tasks iConfig
can perform include:
• Setting the IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
• Defining the community strings and SNMP traps.
In addition to the above functions, iConfig offers an authorized IP address system and
access restriction to MIB groups supported by manageable devices. These extra
layers of security are purely optional and do not affect SNMP compatibility in any
way.
iConfig can be used to upload new versions of the system software and new MIB
information. It also offers diagnostic capabilities for faster resolution of technical
support issues. iConfig version 1.3 or above MUST be used for PROM updates.
HubControl32 and previous versions of iConfig will not work.
iConfig works with the following platforms:
• Windows 98
• Windows NT
• Windows 2000
• Windows XP
• Windows Vista
The iView² CD shipped with the AccessEtherLinX includes iConfig. For information
regarding the use of iConfig, refer to the iConfig help file.
