To update the SNMP database with all the changes made, move the

highlight bar to CONFIRM, and press the Enter key. Changes can be

confirmed after each change or after all changes have been made.

IP Bridging to a Remote Unit

The IMUX unit now supports bridging of selected IP packets to the remote

IMUX unit. The bridged packets are transported between the remote unit

and the local NMS/SLIP port using the proprietary Embedded Data Link.

In order to minimize bandwidth constraints, only the following protocols

are bridged:

• SNMP

• Ping (ICMP Echo Request/Echo Response, a subset of full ICMP)

• TFTP

• SNMP Traps from remote

The illustration below shows the SNMP Configuration from the SYSTEM

UTILITIES MENU.

The IMUX unit has a configurable “Remote IP Address” parameter used to

identify the remote unit. The remote IMUX’s “Unit IP Address” parameter

should be set to the same value, although this is not strictly necessary.

SNMP Baud Rate This feature selects the SNMP port’s baud rate.

To set or change the SNMP port baud rate, move the highlight bar to SNMP

Baud Rate, and press the Space Bar to toggle between the options until

the desired speed appears. The options are: 300; 600; 1200; 2400; 4800;

9600; 19,200 and 38,400. (Default - 9600)

If the SNMP Baud rate is changed, it is necessary to change the baud rate at

the connection to the SNMP manager before continuing. The same is true for

modifying the parity and/or number of stop bits.

SNMP Bits & Parity This feature selects the SNMP port’s parity.

To set or change the SNMP Parity, move the highlight bar to SNMP Bits &

Parity, and press the Space Bar to toggle between the options until the

desired parity appears. The options are: None, Odd, and Even. Bits is always

set at 8. (Default - None)

SNMP Stop Bits This feature selects the SNMP manager stop bit requirement.

Move the highlight bar to SNMP Stop Bits, and press the Space Bar to

toggle between the options 1,1.5, or 2. (Default-2)
