This section contains more information regarding the Radiance R1000
Premise Service Platform.
Management Line Card
The management card is the SNMP agent for the R1000. Connected via the
backplane to the line cards in the R1000, the management card reports indi-
vidual board status to Metrobility’s NetBeacon software or any SNMP applica-
tion. Thus, the network administrator receives immediate information on net-
work operations via a PC. Metrobility also provides the WebBeacon kernel, em-
bedded into the management card, for Web-based management via the Internet
using browsers such as Netscape
®
Navigator
®
or Microsoft
®
Internet Explorer.
Refer to the Command Line Interface Reference Guide, NetBeacon Element
Management Software Installation & User’s Guide or WebBeacon Manage-
ment Software Installation & User’s Guide for detailed software commands.

Metrobility’s line cards deliver carrier-class media, speed and distance solutions
