2.2.2 Starting From HP OpenView Network Node Manager
To start Device Manager from HP OpenView, select a node on the map window, then
select AlliedView-EMS > Device Manager from the Tools menu.
Note that Device Manager and HP OpenView run independently of each other, so exiting
HP OpenView has no effect on Device Manager. Device Manager continues to run even
after HP OpenView stops running. To exit Device Manager, select Exit from its File menu.
Starting from HP OpenView
Note - The configuration of HP OpenView changes during the installation of AlliedView-EMS
to incorporate Device Manager and AMIGO in its menu.
Note - For the AT-AR255E running firmware v1.0.2, HP OpenView sets the host name to
“RIP2-ROUTERS.MCAST.NET”. Device Manager, when started within HP OpenView, uses
this host name and connects to any RIP2 router present in the network. As a result, Device
Manager may not load the AT-AR255E device panel and may instead load another device’s
image. To prevent this from happening, create one entry in the local hosts file for each AT-
AR255E running firmware v1.0.2 in the network. Use the LAN IP address of the device and
a host name that is unique within the network.
