System Administration
This chapter provides all the instructions and procedures necessary for system administrators to
manage the Access Gateway on the customer's network (after a successful installation).
The system administration procedures in this section are organized as they are listed under their
respective Web Management Interface (WMI) menus:
"Configuration Menu" on page 56

"Network Info Menu" on page 153

"Port-Location Menu" on page 161

"Subscriber Administration Menu" on page 173

"Subscriber Interface Menu" on page 187

"System Menu" on page 220

Now that the Access Gateway has been installed and configured successfully, this
User Guide moves away from the Command Line Interface (CLI) and documents
the Access Gateway from the Web Management Interface (WMI) viewpoint.

Choosing a Remote Connection

Once installed and configured for the customer's network, the Access Gateway can be
managed and administered remotely with any of the following interface options:
Using the Web Management Interface (WMI)

interface for network administrators.
Using an SNMP Manager

client manager (for example, HP OpenView). However, before you can use SNMP to
access the Access Gateway, you must set up the appropriate SNMP communities. For
more information, refer to
page 140.
Using a Telnet Client

To use any of the remote connections (Web, SNMP, or Telnet), the network
interface IP address for the Access Gateway must be established (you did this
during the installation process).
Choose an interface connection, based on your preference.
