September 2004 202-10058-01
Installing the Air Messenger Pro Paging Software
ProSafe NMS includes a copy of the Air Messenger Pro paging application. This software is
required if you want ProSafe NMS to page you when an event occurs. Air Messenger Pro is not
installed as part of the regular ProSafe NMS installation.
To install Air Messenger Pro, use the Windows Start/Programs/NETGEAR ProSafe NMS/Install
Air Messenger Pro menu. Follow the installation instructions.
After you have installed Air Messenger Pro you can configure ProSafe NMS to notify your pager
when an event occurs. Please refer to “Emailing or Paging the Administrator on an Event” for
further instructions.
Starting the ProSafe NMS Server and Local Console
To control ProSafe NMS tasks, you must be
logged on to Windows with administrator
permission.
After installation of the ProSafe NMS Server
component, you are prompted to reboot the
Windows system.
When the system has rebooted and you log on
to Windows, the ProSafe NMS Server and
Console applications automatically start and
you are automatically logged on.
