System management
This section introduces the PMP 450 management system, including the web interface, installation, configuration,
alerts and upgrades, and management software.
Management agent
PMP 450 equipment is managed through an embedded management agent. Management workstations, network
management systems or PCs can be connected to this agent using the module’s Ethernet port or over-the air (SM).
The management agent supports the following interfaces:
Hyper text transfer protocol (HTTP)
RADIUS authentication
Simple network management protocol (SNMP)
Network time protocol (NTP)
System logging (Syslog)
Wireless Manager (WM) software
Canopy Network Updater Tool (CNUT) software
Web server
The PMP 450 management agent contains a web server. The web server supports access via the HTTP interface..
Web-based management offers a convenient way to manage the PMP 450 equipment from a locally connected
computer or from a network management workstation connected through a management network, without requiring
any special management software. The web-based interfaces are the only interfaces supported for installation of
PMP 450, and for the majority of PMP 450 configuration management tasks.
