1.8 Management Interfaces

The router operation is provisioned using two separate managers. Timeslot and bandwidth provisioning is

done using the management interfaces for the T1/E1 Controller. Management of the T1/E1 card can be

done through the craft port or the T1 card Ethernet port. The Ethernet port supports both the Network

Management system software (NMS), which is a proprietary GUI based software package, and a Network

Node Manager, which is SNMP based, and requires a SNMP network manager. See the T1/E1 Controller

management documentation for more information.

All other features of the router are controlled using the router management interfaces. One interface is the

Router Management port (RTR MGMT) or Command line Interface, which is accessed through the front

panel DB-9 connector. This interface is an RS-232 interface and uses a standard terminal emulation

program such as HyperTerminal. The interface will accept command scripts to simplify provisioning of

multiple router units. The specific commands available are defined in the Router Command Line

Interface Manual document.

The router features can also be managed over the Router Ethernet LAN port (rear panel access) using a

Web browser or Telnet. The Ethernet is accessed through the rear panel RJ connector. It is 10/100 Base-

T auto sensing. Telnet will connect the user to the Command Line Interface. The Web browser will

provide a graphical interface for control of the router. The operation of the Web interface is defined in the

Router Guide / Web Browser Manual document.
