Installation and Configuration

Configure the network elements

The network element communicates its alarms (UDT messages) directly to the OPS

Manager server through the ethernet LAN. To configure an element, you require the

• System name (as programmed in the System Name field of the System Options

Assignment form)

• Host names for the MCIIIe cards in each plane (SX-2000 LIGHT systems)

host name or IP address of the element server.

1. Log in as a OPS Manager user with a security level that allows you to access the

Network Element form.

2. On the Configuration menu, point to Network Elements, then click Editor.

The Network Elements - Editor window opens.

3. On the Edit menu, click New to blank the Network Elements - Editor fields.

4. Type the Element Name (PBX name); up to 9 characters starting with an upper case

letter, all other characters lower case (a-z, 0-9, _, and no space). Note that the name

cannot start with a number.

5. In the Primary Node ID field, enter the local ID number that is programmed in the Node

Assignment form of the PBX. If the PBX does not have a local ID number assigned to

it, leave this field blank.

6. Select the network element system variant.

In order to retain any changes to either the User Name or Password fields, do not

reset or reboot the 3300 ICP for a minimum of five minutes after the modifications

have been made. Any modifications may not be retained if the 3300 ICP is reset

or re-booted before this time period has elapsed.

Perform the following procedure during off-hours.

The name must have an initial capital letter and match the system name that is

programmed in the System Options Assignment form of the PBX.
