Assigning IP Information

To use SNMP management in a standalone environment, you must assign the Mini

FiberLinX-II IP configuration information (IP address, subnet mask, etc.) by using

either iConfig (from PrismaView), the module serial port, or DHCP.

These methods will also allow you to create community strings, assign access rights,

configure traps, and more. iConfig offers more options than serial port

configuration. After assigning the Mini FiberLinX-II an IP address, use PrismaView

or another SNMP-compatible network management system (NMS) for remote

configuration, monitoring, and management.

Note: You can access the remote Mini FiberLinX-II module (through iConfig, Telnet,

etc.) for performance upgrades and management by using the IP address assigned to

the Prisma FiberLinX-II host unit, or, when used in a standalone application,

through the remote module's own unique IP address.
