MultiLink Support
The most frequently asked question about configuring MultiLink to moni-
tor a SNMP device, like the OpenComms Web Card, across the network
is, what community string do I use?
NOTE: Use the community string LiebertEM for MultiLink.
Configuring for MultiLink support from the Service Terminal
From the Main Menu, select option "3" for SNMP Communications Menu.
In order for MultiLink to monitor the card, the network address information
of the machine on which MultiLink is installed needs to be added to both
the Display/Modify Communities and the Display/Modify Trap Communi-
ties.
As an example, you have installed MultiLink on a PC and you will monitor,
across the network, the OpenComms Web Card you are now installing.
Your PC has the IP address of 126.4.1.1.
Select option "2" from the SNMP Communications Menu and add
126.4.1.1 with the community string Liebert EM.
Select option "3" from the SNMP Communications Menu and add
126.4.1.1 with the community string Liebert EM.
If you have made changes, you need to press "ESC" to return to the Main
Menu and then press "x" to exit and save changes.
Adding to both the Communities list and the Trap Communities list is nec-
essary for MultiLink to work properly.
Configuring for MultiLink support from the Web
Open a web connection to the OpenComms Web Card. Click on the Con-
figure tab. In order for MultiLink to monitor the card, the network address
information of the machine on which MultiLink is installed needs to be
added to both the Access and Traps selection folders as stated in the
above examples.
