For Modem Connection; Telnet Users; Snmp Management - 3Com ACCESSBUILDER 4000 Installation Manual

For Modem Connection

(Remote AccessBuilder Management Only). Connect the modem (a
DCE device) to a null modem cable conforming to the VT-100 specification
to the AccessBuilder's console port (also DCE) on the rear panel. The
modem should be set to power up with default settings of: 9600 Baudrate,
8 bits, 1 stop bit and no parity.
It may be necessary to first connect the modem to a terminal in order to
reconfigure the modems' default settings to autoanswer, etc. (refer to your
modem documentation for this procedure). Once this is accomplished, the
modem connection can be moved to the AccessBuilder 4000's console port.

Telnet Users

(IP Only) If you wish to use Telnet to perform configuration, the \must first
have an IP address. This can be accomplished two ways:
1 Using TABMTOOL to detect the AccessBuilder's BootP request, then
assigning the IP address through TABM's AccessBuilder Configuration
Parameters dialog box. Note the TABM management station and the
AccessBuilder must on the same subnet.
2 Using the AccessBuilder's command line user interface via a modem or local
console. Refer to the section "Setting the AccessBuilder's IP Address" in the
Procedures section of TABM's on-line help or Chapter 2 of the AccessBuilder
Configuration Guide.
The Telnet default port in TABM and the AccessBuilder is 3000. If you need to
change the default, use the System dialog box in TABM to change the
selected AccessBuilder. To change the default on your workstation, refer to
your Telnet third-party documentation for procedures.
SNMP
If you wish to manage or obtain operational statistics for the AccessBuilder
Management
via an SNMP based network management station, such as HP OpenView®
or SunNet™ Manager, an AccessBuilder Enterprise MIB is included on the
backup diskette for this purpose. Refer to the documentation provided with
your network management MIB compiler/parser software for instructions on
how to integrate the AccessBuilder MIB.
Note that in the case of an IP network, you must have previously assigned
an IP address to the AccessBuilder(s) you wish to manage.
