Next Key Labels When the
[Next Key Labels]
key is pressed, another set of key labels are displayed, this
allows additional optional information to be configured for the DTC. These keys provide
access to the following configuration screens:
DNS/IP Routing This key goes to a screen used to configure the DTC to use Domain
Name Services for IP address resolution and IP routing configuration.
These services are configured when back-to- back connection through
routers are used or connections are to be made from DTC ports to HP
9000s or third party ARPA nodes. See Chapter 8, “Additional DTC
Configuration,” for steps to do this.
Tune DTC This key goes to a screen to change the AFCP, TCP and management
timers for the DTC, if needed. Refer to Chapter 8, “Additional DTC
Configuration,” for steps to do this.
DTC U I This key goes to a screen that has information that defines how the
DTC user interface behaves. The DTC user interface is used when a
DTC port is configured as a switched port. See Chapter 1,
“Introduction,” for a description of how switching is used and Chapter
7, “Terminal and Printer Profiles,” for a description of how to configure
ports to allow switching.
Config SNMP You may use the
[Config SNMP]
key on the DTC Screen to configure the
DTC to act as an SNMP agent. This key goes to a screen to configure
the DTC to act as an SNMP agent. Refer to Appendix C, “DTC User
Interface,” for steps to do this. Refer to the DTC Technical Reference
Guide manual for more information on SNMP.
Step 7: Configure DTC Cards
When you press the
[Config Card]
key at the DTC Configuration screen, NMMGR will
display the corresponding card configuration screen for the specified card in the DTC.
Figure 5-6 shows an example of a Card Configuration screen for DTC 72MX for
asynchronous connect card. (Screens vary slightly for DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX, DTC 16,
and DTC 48).
The corresponding screen for a DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX is called a Port Configuration
Screen since DTC 16iX/16MX/16RX has port connectors built directly onto the backplane
and does not have connector cards.
