Configuration Manager User Interface
The Configuration Manager is the tool you use to configure a router. You access
the Configuration Manager by choosing Tools > Configuration Manager from the
main Site Manager window.
Using the Configuration Manager, you can do the following:
• Customize and add network interfaces on the router.
• Make configuration changes locally or remotely.
• Configure the router’s connection to the Technician Interface.
Each Configuration Manager session allows you to access only one router. To
configure two routers simultaneously, first connect to one router and bring up the
Configuration Manager. Then, return to the main Site Manager window, open the
Router Connection Options window, connect to the second router, and start
another Configuration Manager session.
Before you perform any of the configuration tasks, you need to familiarize
yourself with the Configuration Manager interface. The following sections explain
how to enter data in the Configuration Manager windows:
• Entering Parameter Values Using the Values Button on page
2-3
• Entering Parameter Values Using the Keyboard on page 2-4
• Getting Help for Parameters on page 2-5
After you are familiar with how to enter configuration data, you can learn about
the Configuration Manager’s three operating modes.
