Chapter 1 Introduction This chapter provides an overview for managing LA-210 using the RADviewEMS/NGN LA-210 management solution. It introduces the graphical user interface. It is assumed that you are familiar with basic RADview-EMS/NGN operations. For more information about basic RADview-EMS/NGN operations, refer to the RADview-EMS/NGN (PC) or (UNIX) User's Manual.
Chapter 1 Introduction User’s Manual 1.2 RV-EMS/NGN LA-210 Overview This chapter explains the steps required to get the RADview-EMS/NGN LA-210 management system for LA-210 version 1.5 up and running. It describes the graphical user interface, configurations, security and fault management. Specific tasks possible with RADview-EMS/NGN LA-210 are dealt with in the subsequent chapters in this manual.

Chapter 2 Installation and Operation This chapter explains the installation and operation required to get the RADviewEMS/NGN system for LA-210 up and running. It also describes the RADviewEMS/NGN LA-210 graphic user interface (GUI) and how to select the system and its ports.
Chapter 2 Installation and Operation 2.1 User’s Manual Network Management Options LA-210 units have a local management subsystem that controls the operation of all of its circuits. The subsystem supports various management interfaces, including inband and out-of-band SNMP management (for example, RADview), Telnet, and local management via an ASCII terminal or a Web browser. RADview management software is typically used to support large networks.
User’s Manual Chapter 2 Installation and Operation Connecting a Terminal to the Control Port In order to configure the basic IP parameters, it is necessary to connect an ASCII terminal to the LA-210 control port and log in. ³ To configure the LA-210 system parameters: 1. Configure an ASCII terminal as follows: Bits per second: 115,200 Data bits: 8 Parity: None Stop bits: 1 Flow control: None. VT100 emulation. 2. Connect the terminal to the LA-210 CONTROL port. 3.

Flow Dialog with Flow Parameters Configuring LA-210 for Advanced Configuration This chapter explains how to map priority bits to classes of service. You can map each p.bit to any CoS, thus setting different priorities via the CoS profile configuration. You also can set a fixed p.bit per flow. In the current example you will map p.bits to classes of service (CoS) as follows: • Map p.
