Boot the Management Card

Management of the Premise Service Platform is provided through a

local console, Metrobility’s NetBeacon or WebBeacon software, or any

SNMP network management application via a PC. WebBeacon is

embedded in the management card. SNMP is supported on many

general network platforms: SunNet Manager, HP OpenView for UNIX,

HP OpenView for NT, SNMPc and others.

Following power-up of the platform, the boot image is automatically

executed. It starts by performing a system initialization, followed by

diagnostic tests. During this process, the RUN LED will be off and the

ERROR LED will blink. After diagnostics are complete, if a failure has

occurred, the ERROR LED will remain on. The RUN LED will not be

lit until the operating system has started successfully.

The PC terminal session parameters for the management card are as

follows:

9600 Baud / 8 data bits / 1 stop bit / no parity / no flow control

Refer to the Command Line Interface Reference Guide for a detailed

description of how to boot for SNMP management and a complete

listing of configuration commands.
