4-2 Configuring the Vmux Units for Management Vmux-210 Ver. 1.0
Configuration Sequence
The recommended configuration procedure for this application includes the
following steps:
1. Configure all three Vmux units for management, via an ASCII terminal.
2. Install the Vmux units in their locations and connect their cables.
3. Using the SNMPc map, add the managed elements (MEs/network nodes).
4. Using the RADview Service Center, create bundles/circuits.
4.1 Configuring the Vmux Units for Management
The recommended configuration procedure is similar for all three Vmux units,
except that each unit should be assigned a unique IP address. The configuration
for each Vmux device includes the following steps:
• Connect an ASCII terminal to Vmux
• Log in as Superuser (su)
• Configure the host IP settings
• Save the configuration
• Configure the SNMP management settings
• Save the configuration
You must save the selected values at each screen by pressing @ (Shift+2) to
update the Vmux-210 configuration database. If the database is not updated,
Vmux-210 discards the new user settings when it is reset. You can save selected
values at any stage of the configuration procedure.
Connecting an ASCII Terminal and Logging in
1. Configure an ASCII terminal with the following settings:
 One start bit
 Eight data bits
 No parity
 One stop bit
 No flow control
 VT100 emulation.
2. Connect an ASCII terminal to the unit's Control port.
3. Press <Enter> several times (to allow the unit to detect the rate).
4. Initiate the control session by entering the user name (su) and password.
