The fourth configuration connects a terminal to an individual hub
using the RS232 connector as a local management port. The fifth
configuration connects an AMS to a single hub using one of the
hub’s AMS Link ports and an AMS Link Extender.

Connecting a Modem to

the Hub

For remote management purposes, you can make a local connec-
tion from the RS232 serial port on the NMM to a modem. You can
use this setup with AsantéView and the AsantéView Management
Station (AMS) to activate a pager when it receives a trap message
from a hub. This trap message causes the AMS to page this event to
the remote user. See the appropriate AsantéView User’s Guide for
information on setting up trap messages and paging options.
