AT-CV5M01 and AT-CV5M02 Management Cards
The AT-CV5M02 Management Card and its predecessor, the AT-CV5M01
Management Card, support many of the same features and management
functions. Both cards let you locally or remotely monitor the status of the
AT-CM and AT-CV Media Converter Line Cards, configure the operating
modes of the line cards, and adjust the port parameters and the OAM-
based features on the AT-CM Line Cards. The two management cards
share the features listed here:
ˆ Local (out-of-band) management through an RS-232 Console port.
ˆ Remote (in-band) management using the card’s Telnet server from
clients on your network.
ˆ Easy-to-use menus.
ˆ Event log for viewing operational messages about the line cards.
ˆ Activity monitor for viewing the event messages in real-time.
ˆ Syslog client for storing the event messages on a syslog server on
your network.
ˆ Network Time Protocol (NTP) client for setting the card’s date and time
from an NTP server on your network or the Internet.
ˆ Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) client for assigning the
management card’s IP address configuration from a BOOTP or DHCP
server on your network.
The AT-CV5M02 Management Card has these additional features:
ˆ Remote (in-band) management using the card’s web browser server
from web browser clients on your network.
ˆ Redundant management cards in the AT-CV5000 Chassis.
